Murphy Brown/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Awesome Moments in Murphy Brown include:

  • Murphy Brown versus Dan Quayle, as mentioned in the work's description.
    • The season 6 premiere brings in the initially Jerkass Peter Hunt. After spending the entire episode being completely disagreeable and parading his ego around, he tops it all off by accusing Murphy (in front of all her friends and the FYI crew, no less) that she's gotten soft and lost her edge ever since she became a mother. So Murphy responds by punching him in the face. And it's literally seconds before show time. And her report for the night is an examination of excesses of violence on television. You do not fuck with The Murphinator, period. Especially not when it comes to her kid.
  • From season 10: Murphy heads to the hospital for her lumpectomy and the gang is forced to sneak her in due to an obnoxious and greedy member of the paparazzi taking interest in the whole situation. They are successful in getting her in, but the paparazzo isn't fooled by the sneaking part and ends up getting the pictures he came for anyway. He taunts Frank with this information while he unwraps a muffin. Before he can get it anywhere near his mouth, Frank asks if he can see the muffin. "Why?" the paparazzo asks. "I don't want to get blood on it," Frank responds, and rams his fist into guy's jaw. He goes down, hard, and Frank picks up his camera, rips it open and yanks the film out without saying another word. Wow.
