The TV Land cable network has compiled a list of the 100 greatest catchphrases in television history, from the serious — Walter Cronkite's nightly signoff "And that's the way it is" — to the silly: "We are two wild and crazy guys!"

Anonymous said...: I don't think unscripted remarks, such as "Ask not what your country..." and "Have you no sense...," belong on this list.
(And their currency as "catchphrases" is debatable anyway.) On the other hand, I was quite surprised to see such glaring omissions as "Beam me up, Scotty!" and "You got some 'splainin' to do," which I hear constantly.; 4:45 PM
