I liked the line, “Is this a bust?” “Yes, it’s very nice.”

This was used in the show (I’m a big fan as well) and the film. I know it’s lame and sexist, but I thought it was funny.

Maybe they reused the gags from the show because the show had such poor ratings (I say this as a proud owner of the show DVD) they figured not many people would catch that.

For my money: “Al you’ve got some banana on your face.” (fans know this show scene) could have been used in every film. :)

Man, the opening shot of Abe Lincoln returning fire… (sorry show moments, not this film)

I liked the movies. However, I thought they could have been a bit more creative as several gags were lifted from the TV show.

I always find it odd when I’m reading a comic from the early 1980s, and there’s this full-page ad with OJ Simpson and his Dingo Boots.

I wonder why the one-page comic-strip format has fallen out of favor for advertising in comics. Though there was that one disturbing one that Sergio Aragones did last(?) year for the hot dogs with the Third Arm of Hunger.

Whenever Law & Order does an OJ Simpson-inspired episode, I wonder if Sam Waterston gets started with Capricorn One stories.
