* Tim discussing the death of his grandmother is definitely [[Better Than It Sounds|funnier than it sounds]]:
{{quote| '''Tim''': It was a shock. I mean I thought she was going to live till she was a hundred.<br />
'''Lee''': Were you close?<br />
'''Tim''': Well... 94, I was only six years out. }}
* The first episode also has a couple of gems - Lee's discussion with Kate about the training course advertisment, and this:
{{quote| '''Kate''': ''Sensitive''? This from the guy who upset my mom by calling her the happy hippo?<br />
'''Lee''': C'mon, she's bigger than that. }}
* Then there's the "Aussie" episode, where Lee is employed in a shopping centre handing out leaflets - dressed as a six foot tall bird.
{{quote| '''Lee''': I've heard 'em all today. "That looks like an ''egg''citing job." "At least it's a feather in your cap." "Are you the one that crapped on my car?!" I wouldn't have minded, but the last one I wasn't even wearing the costume.}}
* And then later, when Kate brings it up again:
{{quote| '''Kate''': That thing about taking a doo-doo on the man's car? That was a joke, right?<br />
'''Lee''': Course it was. (beat) He didn't see it that way though... }}
* Practically all of Lee's [[Deadpan Snarker|responses]] to Barbara about her cleaning abilities are very funny.
{{quote| '''Barbara''': This apartment doesn't clean itself, you know.<br />
'''Lee''': It does more than you. }}
* In the most recent episode (s5 ep1), "Band", sees Tim joining a band. As the band, Lucy and Lee sit in a bar, the band leader starts comparing the band to the Beatles, and himself to John Lennon. When he starts flirting with Lucy, Lee makes a trademark snide remark, and we get this exchange:
{{quote| '''Band Leader ("John Lennon")''': I don't remember you introducing yourself... who are you?<br />
'''Lee''': Mark Chapman, pleased to meet you.'' }}
* The camping episode in series 5. ''All of it.''
