There’s a definite sound of Friendly Shoulder Slapping.
“Dave, make-believe is for little girls and mental patients.”
No American will ever be that well-mannered.
Bill: What’s interesting about radio?
Dave: Well, I think it’s a fascinating medium.
Bill: You’re from Wisconsin. Artificial light is fascinating to you!
I wonder how many times all together they make fun of Wisconsin in the show?
Bill: You’re not in Wisconsin, Dave. The big story isn’t about a cow wandering into the town square.
Dave: Bill, I worked in Milwaukee, you know. It’s a city with a population of a million people.
Bill: So that must have been quite a hubbub when that cow got loose!
This is one of my favorite quotes from the show.
[*]
Bill: Dave, I think you and I need to have a serious talk.
Dave: Bill, this really isn’t a good time, trust me.
Bill: I ask you to do something about the clutter on my desk and yet you refuse.
Dave: *sweeps everything off the desk* Is that better, Bill?
Bill: …maybe we should talk about this another time.
