This is basically how a normal person would react to seeing someone with unusual feet like those.

Series

General

Opening

  • When Penny arrives home for a family photo, her friends are behind her only for Oscar to close the door on them only for somebody else to open the door (different for each episode). He closes the door on them too before Sugah Mama opens the door. He attempts to close it on her only for her to slam it on him.
  • At the end of the opening, after the family is sat down and ready for the photo, Puff bites Oscar's ear the moment the photo is taken, ruining the shot.
    Oscar: GEYEOUCH!!!

Season 1

  • The "clean version" of Sir Paid-a-Lot in "EZ Jackster".
    Yo, I'm a [bleep] dog [bleep] my name [bleep] uh huh [bleep] feel me! [bleep]
  • There’s one scene on "Forbidden Date"
    Lacienega: A pie-eating contest? Perhaps?
    Penny: You know what, Lacienega? If you say one more thing...
    Carlos: That's okay, Penny. I'm bigger than that.
    Lacienega: That you are.
    (Bebe and Cece use a slingshot to hurl ice cream at Lacienega's eyes)
    (laughter)(siren blaring)
    Penny: Well, I guess we've got to go.
  • In "Love Thy Neighbor", it is revealed that Lacienega has unusually large, duck-like feet, which she has kept a secret from others until she moves in with the Prouds for a while.
    Lacienega: Nobody likes me anymore. It's these stupid feet!
    Oscar: Oh, come on, I bet they're not so bad.
    (Lacienega shows her extremely huge feet)
    Oscar: WHOANOWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA NOW!!!!!!!!
    (Lacienega starts bawling her eyes out, while Penny looks at Oscar in a "Not helping at all" way.)
    • The funniest bit is the random horse sound Oscar makes.
  • In the episode “Strike”, Trudy is surprised to see the twins outside of where they should be and asked Oscar where they came from.
    Oscar: Come on, Trudy. You remember a year ago, hospital, yelling, "I ain’t never gonna have a baby again!"
  • In "She's Got Game", Oscar tells Trudy that he won't sign Penny up for football because "there's no worse pain than football pain!" Trudy snaps back "What about child birth?!"; there's a long pause and then Oscar responds "Okay; child birth is worse but I ain't signing her up for that either."
  • In "Hip-Hop Helicopter", Dijonay's cousin arrives at the school to pick up the girls and take them to the contest, and they're all surprised (and confused) to see that her cousin is actually rich.
    Dijonay: "She got the money, I got the looks!"
    Michael: "Yeah, looks like you ain't got no money!"

Season 2

  • The Halloween episode has a couple moments:
    • When Oscar asks the family if anyone wanted to try his Proud Scary Snacks. Everyone runs away.
    • Oscar tries to give a guy his snacks. The guy tries it and said "these are a nasty" in a hilarious accent.
    • When Penny tries to give Oscar's nasty snacks to the trick or treaters, they throw the snacks back at her.
    • Penny (as a hero) not only defeats the Gross sisters, but she freezes Gina and leaves Nubia hanging via a street light.
      Penny: Have a "ice" day.
    • When Penny, (as a superhero) is at the Frightacular Fest, Lacienega insults Penny by calling her a party pooper. In response, Penny uses her ice breath to cause Lacienega to slip and fall.
    • Michael calling a frozen Gina a "Grossicle."
  • The Camping Episode. The Proud and Boulavardez families go on a camping trip (along with Penny and Lacienaga's friends) and end up stranded in the wilderness after losing all of their supplies in a sudden flood. Oscar and Felix are sent to find help. Hilarity Ensues.
  • The episode with the house keeper, Renee, has all the bad house keepers who get rejected, but the following is a standout.
    Oscar: Your resume is very impressive.
    Candidate: Thank you. I just love kids, I love cooking, I love keeping a clean house and...I LOVE YOU! AHAHA! (the family has a collective Oh, Crap! look on their faces) AHAHA! Don't you love me? AHAHA! (head spins around) Em evol uoy t'nod AHAHA! (cuckoo clock sound-effect)
    Trudy: NEXT!
  • The Hilarious Outtakes in "The Legend of Johnny Lovely".
    Suga Mama: (getting blown away by the wind) AHHHHHHHH!!
    (the camera pans to show Papi behind a gigantic fan)
    Papi: WOO-HAHAHAHAHA!
  • There's a lot of funny moments on the episode "It Takes a Thief"
    • At the house.
    Oscar: (looking at Suga Mama with camera while she takes out her dentures)
    Suga Mama: Boy, get that camera off of me!
    Oscar: Sssh! Sssh! Everybody be quiet! I've got a picture of the legendary Big Foot!
    Suga Mama: I got your big foot, alright! (She kicks Oscar)
    • And another one at the house.
      Trudy: Get up, Oscar. We have to take the twins to the zoo.
      Oscar: Come on, Trudy. The twins don't want to go to Suga Mama's house!
      Suga Mama: (attempts to punch Oscar)
      Oscar: (Dodges Suga Mama) Ha ha, you missed!!
      Suga Mama: (Punches Oscar with her other fist)
      Oscar: Owww!
    • And here's one at the store.
      Oscar: Just a little bit more.
      Suga Mama: Hey, Oscar, get a shot of this.
      Oscar: (Turns to look at Suga Mama with a half-shirt and short shorts, then screams, then camera lens breaks)
      Trudy: What's wrong, baby, did you break your camera?
      Oscar: No, worse. (lowers the camera to reveal his eye is cracked, not the camera lens)''
    • And the petting zoo.
      Oscar: Trudy, if the only reason why we're here is to pet an old goat, we could have stayed home and petted Suga Mama's head. Ha ha!
      Suga Mama: (to some goats she's petting) Get him!
      (The goats charge at Oscar, who runs)
      Oscar: Aah!! Trudy!!
    • Given all of Oscar's insults towards Suga Mama throughout the episode comes this little Bait-and-Switch:
      Oscar: Ape world? Hey, Mama—!
      Suga Mama: Watch it, boy! You're skating on thin ice!
      Oscar: What? All I was gonna do was say I remember you bringing me here as a boy.
      Suga Mama: I should have left you here, too.
  • Lacienega's grandfather hits on a skinny and attractive Suga Mama only for her to return to her former self after eating a piece of cake. He starts crying (the only time in the whole series he ever does) which Suga Mama confuses as Tears of Joy.
  • "Penny Potter":
    • Oscar receives an interesting phone call following his Proud Snax informercial:
      Oscar: Hello?
      Surfer Dude: Hey, snack dude! I tried your snacks. They're nasty! I'm choking on one right now (coughs) I'm about to—
      (Oscar looks into the kitchen and sees Suga Mama on the phone prank calling him)
      Suga Mama:—sue you!
      Oscar: Mama!
      Suga Mama (normal voice): Oops, gotta go. You'll be hearing from my attorney.
    • Later in the episode, Oscar gets another call:
      Redneck Man: I just wanna tell you them Proud Snax is the best dang snacks I've ever had.
      Oscar: Thank you for your kind words, sir. What's your favorite flavor?
      Redneck Man: Uh, it don't matter really. The hogs just like 'em all. Sooey!!
      (Oscar looks in the kitchen to see Suga Mama prank calling him again)
      Suga Mama: Soooooey!!!
      Oscar: Mama!
      Suga Mama: Well, I can't help it, son! Ha ha ha!
  • The entire episode of "She Drives Me Crazy", particularly this moment.
    Oscar: TRUDY! Tru— (Trudy throws a toilet plunger at his face)
    Trudy: Do not call my name!
    Oscar: (removes the plunger off his face) What's wrong with you, Trudy? Whoa. Did you know your eyes are glowing and your head is spinning around?
    Trudy: Your daughter and your mama are driving me crazy! When I'm not waiting on Penny hand and foot, I'm taking Suga Mama everywhere since she's unable to drive herself! Now, I have to take care of my daughter, (picks Oscar up off the ground) but I can't handle your mama too now! Oscar! You better do something, NOW!
    Oscar: O-o-kay, okay, I'll take Suga Mama to the old folks' home!
    Trudy: Oscar, just... take her to renew her license!
    Oscar: Why?
    Trudy: (sternly) Oscar!
    Oscar: Okay! Alright! I'll take her!
    Trudy: Oh, thank you, baby. I love you.
    Oscar: I love you too. Now could you please put me down?
    • The way Trudy growls "Your daughter and your mama are driving me crazy!" is really funny; you can tell how insane she's going.
  • The ending to one episode where Oscar sees the babies sending a tied-up Puff to the moon on a rocket.
    Oscar: Houston, we have a problem.
  • Pretty much the entire beginning of "Hmm.. Taste Like.."

Season 3

  • In "Psycho Duck", Zoe mistakenly takes offense to the names Nubia gives to Chester the Duck.
    Nubia: You too Long Neck!
    Zoe: I already gave you my money!
    Nubia: Not you, I'm talking to the quacker here.
    Zoe: But I'm-
    Nubia: Shut up!
