What's your favorite Murray quote?


I'm so angry I feel like swearing!

reply

oh man, every single one. The one from this latest episode had me seriously yelling with laughter. paraphrased: "Hey guys, can you look around in there? It seems like there might be somebody else in there with you playing the piano"

I read an interview someplace that said the only real improvisation that is done on the show are the scenes done with Murray. I get a little extra pleasure from watching every one of his scenes knowing this, knowing the boys are just as thrown off sometimes and probably have to stifle their own laughter at the ridiculousness that comes out of Murray's mouth. Pure gold.

And-a-WAY-WE-GO!!!

There's a lot I like but I really like his "oh no" line in the recent episode. It's not the line itself it's how he says it. I like how it implies that thier "duels" are something that happens a lot.

The minuet god crapped out the third caveman a conspiracy was hatched against one of them!

reply

lately, his deilivery of "tata" to nigel saladu, and that face he did when he said goodbye to brahbrah LOL.

but #1 has to "go f()ck yaself bret!"

reply

"They kick the ball, you kick the.. jams."

reply

After they blew the perdiem on leather suite: "You're like a couple of.....cool-looking idiots!"

reply

The best part about this line was the look of absolute satisfaction on Murray's face when he said jams.

reply

"Texas - Lexus. Two rhyming words"

I'm supposed to put my signature here...we'll see about that

Great moment when he suggests there should be another exclamation mark on the New Zealand subway poster when there was already three on the poster haha.. then Greg says he doesn't think that's neccessary, and then Murray sincerely seems shocked and says something like, "Really, not neccessary?"

His complete and utter cluelessness is the best thing on TV.

reply

Bret (naming albums): "Michael Jackson's Off the Wall?"
Murray: "I'll say!"

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa central park.

reply

"Maybe if you squint your ears" is the first that comes to mind...but seriously, his delivery is always perfect and hilarious. I giggle just hearing "band meeting".

FEED ME A STRAY DINGO

reply

I mean, this one here, you're in. And this one here, you shouldn't be.

...in reference to the only two band photos Murray has. All his lines are classics though.

reply

^the thing i like about that one is he made that picture because he had no picture of bret. so where did he get the picture he stuck on then?

reply

I know! Isn't it fantastic?!

I also love... ....aaaaaaahhh central park. His inflection is genius.

reply

Addressing Jermaine for calling Jim a dick:

"You're the one who's a dick for calling Jim a dick. How's that? A taste of your own dick medicine!!"

reply

in the same episode
"keitha...thats a MANS name."
and then 2 seconds later
"you've got quite the accent, don't ya kevina?"
lmfao hahaha i laugh everytime

reply

He's been hilarious in season 2. Everything is funny! Especialy

"You have to be deaf to hear that!"

reply

He drives me to tears the entire touring episode!
"$8 can of mixed nuts. That must have been good Jemaine? Got so much buzz outta them that you chucked a television out the window."

"Is this a joke Jemaine? A Big joke? A $352 water polo joke?"

"Bret, finally you drive my Honda into a pool! Personally I prefer the mixed nuts caper, at least it was original!"

All this plus they make him sleep in the tub!!!

reply

I like how he pronounces Honda as 'Honder'

reply

the whole tour episode in season 1 kills me as well.

"probably looking for thunderstorms to rock out in"
"I'm so livid with you turkeys. You're like a couple of cool lookin idiots."

bu for some reason the magnet line kills me.


Murray: Don't stand next to any big magnets.
Jemaine: Why would I stand next to big magnets, Murray?
Murray: Well, I don't know what you do in your personal life.

reply

I forgot, "What is this? A bag of all the clock radios you stole?"

Where is the magnet line, can't find that one?

reply

"What are you...on your way to a dick meeting!"

Haha

reply

i am cracking up just reading these.

reply

An oldie but so funny

Dubbed Video....Dub

reply

it's in episode 2 of season 1. when bret quits the band and meets coco for the first time.

reply

holy sh*t, i am laughing hysterically reading this thread. every thing murray does is brilliant.

in regards to the mixed nuts caper mentioned above, i love how he can kill with just a single word. jemaine offers him some of the mixed nuts and he asks if there are any cashews left. jemaine tells him he picked them all out and murray just says "typical" and storms off. the inflection of his voice on a single word and in howling.

you are the man rhys!

reply

Thanks for quoting the "chucked a television" line. My favorite line from the series.

reply

I still love the chicken/egg scene from season one.

"You're the egg. You're a bad egg. You've derailed this meeting with another obscure comment."

reply

the scene where he mistakes gymnasts for musicians with his arms in the air and everything and Bret yells from afar, "THAT'S GYMNASTS, MURRAY!" amazing

reply

"Budget? You mean you need to....bring in a budget? You want a printed out budget?"

the whole time Dave is saying "How much money do you want to spend!?"

I've watched that scene like 10 times and I nearly piss myself each time.
