Funniest Lines??

Ok forgive me if this has been done before but I'm new here! I know a lot of people don't think this show is very funny, and I kind of agree, but it does have its moments. I was wondering, especially since the show is ending, what were some of the funniest lines/ lines that stood out for you out of the whole show?? One of my favorites comes from the "Back to the 80's" episode (don't remember the name) where China goes back in time as a grown woman, and Zultan sees her and asks who she is, and she replies, "I'm you... From the future." I burst out laughing, the look of horror on his face was priceless!! Lol what do you think??

I happen to think this show is incredibly funny - in fact, joke for joke - it delivers and delivers. You can tell that the writers like cartoons - because there is a zaniness to some of the physical humor and crazy costumes that makes me think of Looney Tunes (in a good way). There have been great lines - Olive always cracks me up - I remember her dressed as Queen Elizabeth and after describing her reign added "good times". LOL!

This last (current) season is TERRIBLE, though.

The best lines were from S1 and S2 when the show didn't take itself seriously at all and most of the jokes were puns and/or one-liners that seemed natural even if incredibly corny.

Everything is so forced now it's painful to watch, unfortunately.

The writers butchered Olive because in past seasons she was a know-it-all, but was also still very naive about a lot of things. Now, she is just arrogant and annoying and constantly puts down Fletcher to raise herself up.

Hashimoto is borderline a racist portrayal.

I'm not one of those people who is easily offended, but his thick and exaggerated accent is insulting to Asian-Americans (Asians in general) and has its roots in racist caricatures Western culture has had of Asians ever since the two cultures met.

I don't know the Hashimoto character, but I don't trust Disney when it comes to having Native American or Asian characters without being stereotypical.

Well, so much for listing "funniest lines". So many people are crabby and complainers here.
I loved the holiday episode and when the Paisley hologram said "I'm made of science!: -- LOL!!!!

I like the one with the scavenger hunt and they had to get the bell from the Trolley because the principal said she had her first kiss under the bell and Fletcher says in disgust, "when? In 1872???" And she replies "no, two years ago!"

One of mine is Olive's from IndependANTS about banning throwing certain things including a baby out with the bathwater.

That's a good one! Olive and China's dad usually crack me up the most. I thought of two more.

One I think is from the trolley/ competition episode where instead of Paisley saying "Principal Skidmore said..." She said "Principle SkidMARK..." Lol! Gross but still

And then in the new one with the female Russian spy Oksana, when she popped out of nowhere to sneak up on China and her face was painted like a popcorn bowl! Her accent was kind of annoying but I couldn't get over her face lol

Two examples that come to mind:

1.) From the episode where Cameron is into curling (the coolest sport in the Sochi Olympics, in my opinion):
LEXI: I hate P.E. I have to take off my makeup, put on my P.E. makeup, then I have to take off my P.E. makeup and put on my regular makeup. And these gym shorts are so unflattering!
PAISLEY. I know! I've been wearing them for an hour and they haven't said one nice thing to me.

2.) From the "on tour" episode featuring China Anne and her sisters: In a concert scene all the audience members wave their cell phones to the music, except the old tour bus driver, who waves a telephone receiver -- its cord connected to a 1970s-era Princess phone in his other hand.

Yeah, I know filankey is not a word, but it's gonna catch on.

Pretty much everything Paisley says/does.

"He doesn't pay me either! He just gives me pieces of paper with his autograph on them. I'm saving them in a cardboard box, because maybe they'll be worth something when he's dead!"

"They said that this mean girl who begged to be ice princess didn't show up, so they asked me to be in the parade!"

"Can I get a beet!"

"I made your bed for you!"

I really wish they had brought her on as a main cast member in season 3. Or given her and Lexi their own show.
