  • The first Season Finale.

    Barb: Oh there isn't a woman in the world who can resist the scent of wounded boy.
  • Ellie finding out Jules had sex:
    Ellie: You totally had sex last night.
    Jules: How did you know?
    Ellie: I'm your best friend. I know these things. Plus there's a condom wrapper on your back
    Jules: Is it just the one?
    Ellie: Good God Jules!
  • Ellie has a dream where her baby was made of chocolate and she ate her baby
    Ellie: We're just not connecting in food, music, and books. And when he grows up he's gonna do something to drive me crazy like marry a poor person.
  • Jules finds out Laurie and Grayson slept together before she and Grayson started dating, and her decision over who to be mad at turns into a full-blown parody of The Bachelor and Survivor, complete with Jules snuffing out the loser's wine glass.
  • In "You Don't Know How It Feels", Laurie punishes a kid who stole her candy by making her listen to a singing performance by Grayson and Jules's father Chick who are dressed as Prince and a bear, respectively.
  • Laurie's extensive coffee order. Her delivery also makes it Rapid-Fire Comedy.
    Laurie: Oh, hey, Rach. Now, bear with me, I have to order for everyone: Okay, I'll have one Soy Largie, one Teeny Tiny, one Teeny Teeny Tiny Unleaded, one Plain Jane, extra Yum— what the hell, make it a double Yum— Uhhh, a Baby Joey, a Midnight with a Full Moon (hold the pumpkin), a medium coffee, I need a Heavy D, in a travel mug, please, two Crazy Ivans, a Sauron's Eye— also, I need a Damn! and an iced Damn!, a Sneaky Pete, a Double Drip with a snip of whip, and a Frap-Cap, heavy on the (imitating the blender) crcccrcccrcrch! crcrcrrrchcrcrch! Oh, and let's see, what's fresh? Okay, well I'll take three Raisin Happy Muffins, a French Moustache, and— ugh, a Fart Muffin, that is not for me. Oh, and I forgot to order my own coffee! Can I get a Taye Diggs, which is black and extra strong and smooth, but also very sweet?
    Rachel: (stares at Laurie, dumbfounded)
  • Andy's wedding ring with the inscription: Too legit to quit
  • Andy, Grayson and Bobby in a manly basketball montage. Smash Cut to their opponents who are kids
    Lisa (one of the kids): We're still up by three (points)
  • Jules' sex ed song for Travis:
    If you're heading in a sexy direction, you better use contraception, cause babies destroy your dreams!
  • Jules' Slightly Longer Morning Routine Song:
    I’m not predictable you say, Perhaps it’s true
    But when you wake, Here’s what you’ll do:
    Brush your teeth, Wash your face
    Check your nose, Just in case
    Eat your breakfast, Bacon and eggers
    Take your pill, So you won’t get preggers
    Find your mouthguard, Check your mail
    Workout time, If it’s late you bail
    Where’s your mouthguard, You threw it away
    It’s all the same, Everyday
    But we don’t mind, We’re glad to wait
    ‘Cause we all know, That right at eight
    You come downstairs, And on our knees
    All together: Coffee please!
  • The funeral for Big Joe, Jules' beloved oversized wine glass.
    • There was also a funeral for the even bigger Big Carl, which was replaced by Big Lou, which was replaced by Big Tippi, which was replaced by Big Chuck.
  • On 2x20, Grayson's impression of Travis is probably the hardest the show has even made me laugh, but then it was followed by he and Jules kissing...
  • Jules, Grayson and Travis eating "caveman style"
  • The tag at the end of the season 4 premiere, which parodies the "coming this season" previews by showing events that WON'T happen including Jules, Ellie and Laurie all getting pregnant by the same man, Jules actually being a witch, and a cameo by Michelle Williams as Laurie's step-sister
  • “I always laugh at dudes in dresses. It’s a staple of British comedy!”
  • Jules wins a dodge ball match by getting hit on the face a lot
  • About Top Gun: If (Goose and Maverick) kissed it'd be a more honest movie wouldn't it?
  • Andy telling Lisa that he's willing to commit to a relationship by taking out LIVE snakes from his pockets. It Makes Sense in Context
  • From the season 4 finale:
    • This exchange
    Jules: You know what the problem is with drinking when you're really sad?
    Tom: No.
    Jules: Me neither. Let's order another bottle
    • Grayson's terrible audition tape to Hollywood casting agencies
