Recently got into this show after a glowing review from Ball Ox, and I must say top notch television Denny Crane and Alan Shore are fantastic characters, classic scenes below:
Denny Crane: Did my client tell you that this drug is unapproved by the FDA?
Mark Harrison: Yes.
Denny Crane: Did he tell you that, ah, there could be side effects?
Mark Harrison: Yes.
Denny Crane: You were fully informed.
Mark Harrison: I was.
Denny Crane: You consented.
Mark Harrison: I did.
Denny Crane: Take it again?
Mark Harrison: Absolutely.
Denny Crane: Like the doctor?
Mark Harrison: Love him.
Denny Crane: How’s your memory?
Mark Harrison: My memory’s fine.
Denny Crane: What’s my name?
Mark Harrison: Denny Crane.
Denny Crane: Like you mean it!
Mark Harrison: Denny Crane!
Denny Crane: What’s my name?
Mark Harrison: [shouts] Denny Crane!
Denny Crane: No further questions.
Alan Shore: [to Tara] Hello, I’m a complete stranger and I’m here to pick you up.
[notices Joe]
Alan Shore: Oh, I see, there’s two of us. I’ll be evens, you be odds.
Joe: You got a problem?
Alan Shore: No, actually. I just saw this fair maiden here talking to a tree trunk, and since I’m an arborist I thought I could help translate.
Joe: Here’s a health tip. Walk away.
Alan Shore: Why would I do that?
Tara Wilson: All right, guys.
Alan Shore: Don’t be deceived by my cushy appearance.
Tara Wilson: Excuse me. I actually am with him.
Joe: I don’t care. Walk away, or I lay you out.
Alan Shore: I don’t mean to be a stickler, but isn’t the object to lay her out?
[Joe punches Alan]
Tara Wilson: Hey!
Joe: Oh, gee, I’m sorry, I was reaching for my wallet…
Alan Shore: I see. Allow me to reach for mine.
[walks away to the other end of the bar]
Tara Wilson: Are you all right?
Alan Shore: Fine.
[to Mike and friends]
Alan Shore: Hello, big people. Sorry to intrude, but you seem rather strapping. Here’s three hundred dollars. Would you be so kind as to go hit that man down there?
Mike: [laughs incredulously] Really?
Tara Wilson: Alan!
Alan Shore: There’s an extra hundred if he goes down.
Mike: You’re on.
Alan Shore: Make it a good one.
Tara Wilson: Oh, for God’s sakes.
Alan Shore: [Mike hits Joe; fistfight ensues. Alan gives money to Mike’s friend] Here’s a hundred; go help your friend.
Alan Shore: [watches the fighting] Gee, seems Joe has buddies.
[passing out money to Mike’s friends]
Alan Shore: One for you, one for you. I’ve got plenty of them. Hit him hard, now. For you, and for you…
Brilliant episode last night…You can see the other partners beginning to turn on Denny though…this will probably be the theme for the current series.
Denny Crane opens fire on a bunch of chinese trying to take over the firm with a paint gun, then he breaks into the neighbours house and gets into bed beside her without a stitch on - “I wanted to give her a Christmas surprise but it seems it was too big of a surprise”
Gerry Espinson voting on the Chinese takeover - “Pop Pop Nay”
Crane & Shore getting married now too.
If there is a better hours Comedy on TV, (maybe apart from Shameless) I’v yet to see it.
[quote=“tipptops*”]Anyone (Flano) catch this last night?
Best episode ever.

Ah yeah I saw that one before alright. Chang, Poole & Schmidt
By the way TT this sentence “Denny Crane opens fire on a bunch of chinese trying to take over the firm with a paint gun” makes it sound like the Chinese were trying to take over the firm using a paint gun
