Mad Libs Catchphrase

"Sweet...something of...someplace!"

- Hermes, running out of ideas on Futurama

A Catch Phrase that's slightly different every time - the same phrase structure, but with one or two words different each time it's used, either completely at random or somehow related to the current situation. Perhaps the most famous is Robin's "Holy ____, Batman!"

Subtrope of Catch Phrase and a prime source for the "mutation" part of Memetic Mutation - turns of phrase like "X is the new Y" which behave this way are sometimes called 'snowclones'. Unrelated to Mad Libs Dialogue.

NOTE: Examples should be formatted like a "Mad Libs" page, with the missing word or phrase made as specific as possible. We want [plural noun] who [verb] them to understand the [abstract noun], after all! Blank lines appear when the gap can be filled with pretty much anything.

Anime

 * Nozomu Itoshiki, Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei: "I'm in despair! [The subject of today's episode] has left me in despair!"
 * Or, with the recent change to the manga's translator: "It's hopeless! I've lost all faith in [subject of today's chapter]!"
 * Codename: Sailor V: "[suitable person/group] may let you but I won't!"
 * Updated in the followup as "[person] may forgive you, but I/we won't!"
 * Karin: "[The subject of today's episode] is embarrassing!"
 * Himawari! has two. Yusura describes things being "[adjective] like a(n) [animal]". Azami has "According to my information, [useful information]. Also, [useless trivia]."
 * Soul Eater: Crona's "I don't know how to deal with [whatever is in front of hir at the time]!"
 * Eyeshield 21, Monta: "[verb] MAX!"
 * Gintama: Katsura occasionally twists his catchphrase of "It's not Zura, it's Katsura" into "I'm not a [noun], I'm Katsura" or "I'm not [adjective], I'm Katsura".
 * Pokémon's Team Rocket's mottos, particularly in Sinnoh. Bulbapedia has a complete list. They're too long to put here, though "Listen, is that a/n [adjective noun]/[noun] I hear?" "It [verb]s to me loud and clear!" is a common one.
 * Cilan has "It's _____ time!" in the Japanese version, originally starting with tasting time, we have now had various times including, but not limited to, fishing time, science time, detective time, and unbelievable time. The dub does this to a lesser extent, with "evaluating time" being his default catchphrase instead of "tasting time".
 * Possibly due to either almost missing it or perhaps really loving it (or both) the dub has been adding extra "It's _____ time!" phrases for Cilan starting from Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open. They added two extra along with "It's lunch time~!" and "It's fishing time!" these being "It's fishing wrap it up time!" and "It's Pokéball time!" and they've continued to do so with the following episodes. Plus, it's not just that, but TPCI has also been having other character imitate Cilan's phrase.
 * Black Butler: "A Phantomhive butler that can't do [insert ridiculous task here] isn't worth his salt!"

 * Tobuscus opens every episode of Cute Win Fail with the phrase, "Hi, I'm Toby Turner. [Improbable statement], and this is 'Cute Win Fail'." Said improbable statement is then used as a Running Gag in the remainder of the intro.

 * Phoebe had one as well: "[Noun] never [whatever the current noun is doing] at my old school." Usually [noun] is "we" or "the bus."

 * And Dorothy Ann has one too: "According to my research, [plot-relevant fact]."
 * Dr. Drakken of Kim Possible. His usual Catch Phrase is "You think you're all that, Kim Possible! But you're not!" But he often changes it, especially if she has something new, or brought someone else with her:

 * Notable subversion, in the first Grand Finale, So The Drama: "Maybe she is all that!" And another in the real Grand Finale, "Graduation", when Drakken wrongly believed that the alien invaders had killed Kim:
