83 catch phrases, and no "Let's Rock", from Al Bundy off Married with Children, are you crazy, that belongs in the top 10
I imagine you're very disappointed with TV Land's list too. 17 more catch phrases and they didn't include "Let's rock" either.
That quote just wasn't used enough by my circle of friends to make my list.
you seem to have alot of the good ones, its just not in a very good order i personally believe. what about bob barker? no one gets their pets spayed or neutered anymore?
