00:00Rachel claims this is her favorite movie.
00:02Dangerous Liaisons.
00:03Correct.
00:04Her actual favorite movie is...
00:05Weekend at Bernie's.
00:06Correct.
00:08Welcome to WatchMojo,
00:09and today we're counting down our picks
00:11for the most hilarious scenes to ever grace the small screen.
00:15Oh my god, what is that?
00:16What was that?
00:17Is that cheese?
00:18Have you eaten cheese?
00:20How much cheese have you eaten today?
00:22How much cheese is too much cheese?
00:24Any amount of cheese.
00:26Number 10.
00:27A lesson about teaching lessons.
00:29Arrested Development.
00:31Let's be frank.
00:32The Bluth family is a complete mess.
00:34Think of how dysfunctional your family can be
00:36and then crank that up to 11 at best.
00:39What are you doing?
00:40Flashing the lights.
00:42So the dealer knows what's going down.
00:44In one of their earlier examples,
00:47Michael suspects that his son George is using substances.
00:50So he decides to scare him straight by using sexy dancers.
00:53Because why not?
00:55Let's get this party started.
00:56Aren't you guys gonna cop him?
00:57However, Michael's own father ends up scaring him straight about not teaching lessons
01:01in the most traumatic, gruesome way possible.
01:14That's why you don't teach lessons to your son.
01:18This season one episode set the bar for how twisted this family's dynamic truly is.
01:24And we can't help but bust a gut at how morally bankrupt the Bluths are.
01:28Don't make the same mistake I did, you know, teaching lessons.
01:32So you taught me a lesson not to teach lessons?
01:34It was my last lesson.
01:37The real lesson here today?
01:39Don't try to trick your kids.
01:41Number nine, fold in the cheese, Schitt's Creek.
01:43When you live with a silver spoon in your mouth,
01:46you don't usually have to worry about trivial things such as being self-reliant or knowing how to cook.
01:50But with the Rose family's wealth all gone,
01:52Moira decides it's time for them to learn.
01:54David, that's not right.
01:55Okay, well that's because I'm ladling and stirring at the same time and you're just standing there.
01:58Now is not the time to lose focus, darling.
02:00She tries to instruct David on how to cook enchiladas, and it's a delicious disaster.
02:05The next step is to fold in the cheese.
02:10What does that mean?
02:11Moira fails to give clear instructions, David is cooking in a sweater,
02:15and neither of them knows how to fold in the cheese.
02:17Do you fold it in half like a piece of paper and drop it in the pot, or what do you do?
02:21David, I cannot show you everything.
02:23It's honestly a miracle the enchiladas were somehow edible.
02:26But if learning to cook is this hilariously stressful,
02:30we should count our blessings that these two don't work in fast food.
02:33I don't know how to fold broken cheese like that.
02:35And I don't know how to be any clearer.
02:37You take that thing that's in your hand, and you...
02:40If you say fold in one more time.
02:43Number 8. The Whale, Seinfeld.
02:45Save the whale, George. For me.
02:48George Costanza's ploy to impress an old flame goes south in this classic episode.
02:52For reasons that could only occur on Seinfeld, his date is led to believe that he is a marine biologist.
02:58In their booth at Monk's Cafe, he tells them how he lived up to his fake career and saved a beached whale.
03:03I tell you, Jerry, at that moment, I was a marine biologist.
03:08Actor Jason Alexander gives an acting tour to force as he delivers a hammy monologue worthy of masterpiece theater.
03:14The sea was angry that day, my friends.
03:19Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli.
03:22According to Jerry Seinfeld, the whale story was a last-minute addition to the script.
03:27Alexander learned his new lines in mere hours and performed it all in one take.
03:32From out of nowhere, a huge tidal wave lifted me, tossed me like a cork, and I found myself right on top of him, face to face with the blowhole.
03:41I could barely see from the waves crashing down upon me, but I knew something was there.
03:46So I reached my hand in, felt around, and pulled out the obstruction.
03:51Number seven, the trivia game, Friends.
03:55Who makes up the questions?
03:57Ross will do it.
03:59Oh, sure, Ross will do it.
04:01It's not like he has a job or a child or a life of his own.
04:06Fine, we'll ask Phoebe.
04:07No, no, no, I want to play.
04:09The one with the embryos is an iconic episode in more ways than one, but for the sake of this list, we will be focusing on the trivia game played by Rachel, Monica, Joey, and Chandler.
04:18After arguing about which group knows more about the other, the men and women decide to split and finally put their knowledge to the test.
04:25The scene has some of the best character interactions of the entire show, while simultaneously providing fun new facts to the audience about their favorite on-screen friends.
04:33What is Monica's biggest pet peeve?
04:36Animals dressed as humans.
04:37That's correct.
04:39The girls lose in the end, and the episode's final punchline sees them struggling to live in the boys' filthy apartment, while Chandler chills with his chicken duck on their couch.
04:48What is it?
04:55Did you see the size of the closets?
04:58I can't believe we live here.
05:02Number 6. Meeting the Peters. The Dick Van Dyke Show.
05:05Hi, we're Mr. and Mrs. Peters.
05:08Uh, come in.
05:10In this now classic and groundbreaking episode, new father Rob Petrie becomes convinced the hospital switched their baby with one from another couple.
05:17He drives himself to distraction over it.
05:19He decides to settle it by inviting the other family, the Peters, over for dinner.
05:23Immediately, it becomes clear that the babies could not have been switched.
05:27The Peters are African American.
05:32I believe, I believe we have your Aunt Bertha's figs and you have Dick and Betty's flowers.
05:39Mrs. Peters, won't you have him?
05:42They accepted Petrie's invitation just to see the look on his face when he found out.
05:48Not only does everyone get a good laugh at Rob's expense, but it's a surprisingly meaningful moment, given that it was the early 1960s.
05:55Why didn't you tell me on the phone?
05:58I missed the expression on your face.
06:02Did I give you a good one, huh?
06:04Oh, beautiful.
06:07Boy, you're going to have to excuse me. I just haven't been myself lately.
06:11We just had a baby.
06:13Oh, yeah, you did.
06:14That's right, we both had babies.
06:17Number 5. The Jonad Files. Veep.
06:19Do you recall a document shared on the J-Drive titled The Jonad Files?
06:27Uh, no. No, ma'am.
06:28That doesn't ring a bell.
06:29Jonah Ryan was the resident DC punching bag, and he made it really hard to feel sorry for him.
06:34A data breach leaves President Selina Meyer's staff under investigation.
06:38The Judiciary Committee presents a shared document dedicated to insulting Jonah.
06:42Dan and Amy deny all knowledge of such a document.
06:45Of course, that's a lie.
06:46So it's not a word combining Jonah and gonad?
06:51Not to my knowledge.
06:51I can confirm that that is exactly what it is, and Mr. Regan knows that.
06:55They are then forced to participate in the hardest try-not-to-laugh challenge ever,
06:59as these respectable politicians rattle off every single obscene thing they ever called Jonah.
07:04We have some extracts.
07:05J-Rock, Jizzy Gillespie, Jack and the Giant Jackoff,
07:08Galen, Tinkerballs, Wadzilla, One Erection.
07:11Do we have to go through all of these?
07:13Frankly, putting that list together is probably the most organized this staff has ever been.
07:18My college friends called me, uh, Tall McCartney.
07:22Number 4.
07:23Get on your feet.
07:24Parks and Recreation.
07:25Get on your feet.
07:28Get up and make it happen.
07:31Leslie Knope and the ragtag team of nerds and eccentrics that make up her staff are running a scrappy campaign to put her on the city council.
07:38Her stop at a local ice rink proves that there are still a lot of details to iron out.
07:42For example, they realize too late that they didn't have enough money to get a red carpet long enough to get to the center of the rink.
07:49Tom?
07:50I couldn't afford enough premium carpet to get us to the stage.
07:53I mean, it was a short walk, but it was pretty luxurious, right?
07:56Okay.
07:59There are so many little touches that make this moment amazing.
08:02There's the awkward silence of the crowd.
08:04There's the pathetic little shuffle they have to do once they hit the ice.
08:07The song of choice, Get on Your Feet, is perfect because, well, they can't.
08:11Get on your feet.
08:14Stop waiting on my arm, Andy.
08:18Yeah!
08:19Babe!
08:21I'm holding the dog.
08:23He's peeing.
08:24He's now peeing.
08:25And I'm putting him down.
08:26No, Ronnie only has three legs!
08:29Number three, The Great Herring War, The Golden Girls.
08:34The Great Herring War?
08:36Rose Nyland's stories didn't always thrill her roommates Dorothy and Blanche,
08:39but a flashback episode in the first season reveals that it's actually one of her infamous stories about her Scandinavian relatives that made them decide to live together.
08:47Oh, girls, let's face facts.
08:50The three of us just can't agree on anything.
08:52I mean, it is obvious we were not meant to live together.
08:55I hate to agree with you, but I think you're right.
08:57I think so, too.
08:59In fact, I know so.
09:01This is exactly what happened during the Great Herring War.
09:05Rose tells the tale between two feuding families, one of whom wanted to train herring for the circus.
09:10The Johanssons wanted to pickle the herring, and the Lindstroms wanted to train them for the circus.
09:15Each new detail is more insane than the last.
09:18Watching Bea Arthur and Rue McClanahan try to keep it together while Betty White tells the story with a completely straight face seems to blur the line between acting and reality.
09:26Did they ever shoot a herring out of a cannon?
09:44Only once.
09:47Number two, Charlie's Dating Disaster.
09:50It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
09:51Part of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's charm comes from how unhinged and hilariously unredeemable its cast can be.
09:58We're gonna get you back on the dating scene, bro.
09:59What do you think about that?
10:00Yeah, that's actually why we're here.
10:01We're gonna put your profile on Match.com.
10:03For example, Mac and Dennis try to help Charlie's romance game by setting up a dating profile for him.
10:08Unfortunately, setting up his bio is a nightmare.
10:11Ooh, that felt good.
10:12Was that sexy?
10:13That's...
10:13That felt sexy.
10:14We'll Photoshop it.
10:15His photo is unflattering, and his answers to the questionnaire make him look like a psycho weirdo.
10:20How about your favorite food?
10:21What would that be?
10:22Oh, milk steak.
10:23Mm-hmm.
10:24What?
10:25Milk steak.
10:27I'm not putting milk steak.
10:28Mac and Dennis spruce up his profile and actually get Charlie a blind date.
10:31But between their bad advice and Charlie's own bumbling, it quickly devolves into an uproarious train wreck.
10:37Is it bleeding again?
10:38I'm sorry.
10:39These are hornets things, you know?
10:41I run into, like, a lot of, like, hornets in my line of work.
10:44Honestly, with friends like Mac and Dennis as his wingmen, Charlie's probably better off alone.
10:49It's a totally different shirt.
10:51Yeah, can I hear you?
10:52How the hell are you going to explain that?
10:53I'll say I met a nice guy in the bathroom and we traded yours.

11:10Number 1.
11:13The Chocolate Factory.
11:14I Love Lucy.
11:15Listen carefully.
11:16This is the wrapping department.
11:19Yes, ma'am.
11:20Now, the candy will pass by on this conveyor belt and continue into the next room where the girls will pack it.
11:26Now, your job is to take each piece of candy and wrap it in one of these papers and then put it back on the belt.
11:32Lucille Ball is a legend for a reason.
11:35With I Love Lucy, she and the show's writers basically invented the playbook that would inspire nearly every sitcom after it.
11:41Seeing Lucy Ricardo take on jobs she was terrible at was always a huge draw, but never was it funnier than in this Season 2 episode.
11:48Oh, this is easier.
11:50Yeah, we can handle this, okay?
12:05She and best pal Ethel take jobs in a candy factory.
12:08Their last chance to impress their new boss sees them trying and failing to keep up at wrapping chocolates as they pass on a conveyor belt.
12:15Ethel, I think this is...
12:17Unable to keep up, they begin to shove the chocolates in their mouths to the roaring laughter of the audience.
