Never Live It Down/Live-Action TV: Difference between revisions

** Rose Tyler eats lots of chips. She doesn't, they're mentioned in her first two episodes, then she eats some in her first finale and School Reunion. But fans are convinced.

* The Swedish TV show ''Hipp! Hipp!'' featured the character Mike Higgins. Despite using the same entry-line in every episode he appeared, it's the last line he ever said in the series that people remember:

* One of the biggest pricing game flops on ''[[The Price Is Right]]'' was a mid-90s game called "Split Decision". It has a reputation for being the game where ''nothing'' worked right and the board was constantly falling apart. In truth, there was ''one'' playing where two of the numbers fell off their markers. The game's short life was due to the fact that contestants simply had trouble understanding the rules.

* In ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'', Jan only said "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!" ONCE in the whole series.

*** And he was trying to destroy evidence!

* ''[[The Nanny]]''s Nanny Fine will occasionally rub Mr. Sheffield's nose in his decision to pass on producing ''[[Cats]]'' for Broadway.

'''Fran:''' [[Long Runners|Now... and forever, Mr. Sheffield.]] }}

** Andrew Lloyd Webber is the [[Always Someone Better]] for Mr. Sheffield, so Niles will rub his face in Webber's successes even more often than Fran. Also, a few seasons into the show, Maxwell said he loved Fran... and then ''took it back.'' She brings that up about every other episode.

** Amusingly enough, most people tend to forget that in the ''Riding with Death'' episode, Mike himself makes a suggestive joke shortly after reprimanding Crow, who responds "And you think '''I'm''' bad?".

** In-universe example on MST; [[Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds]].

** If you went strictly by [[MST|MSTings]], Tom Servo's head exploded every other episode. It only happened four times in ten seasons: Two of them in [[Old Shame|the disavowed Season 1]], and none after Season 4.

*** Unless you also count [[The Movie]], where poor Tom kept getting hit by death rays.

* ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' gave us a justified in-universe use, then lampshaded it when Arnold Rimmer reads of the captain having described him as "constantly failing" the astronavigation exam:

* Lancelot from ''[[Merlin (TV series)|Merlin]]'' has a reputation among the fandom for being something of a dolt. This is distinctly odd considering he is one of only ''two'' characters to have deduced that Merlin has magic, and picks up on the sparks between Arthur and Guinevere before even ''they'' are fully aware of it. Yet so many times you'll see him described as "a bit dim", perhaps because he takes the [[Honour Before Reason]] trope [[Up to Eleven]].

* Besides [[We Hardly Knew Ye|having died early]] during ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'''s run, Tasha Yar is remembered by fans for [[Robo Ship|having sex with Data]] in "The Naked Now".
