Best TV Quote, Ever!

Nicole and I recently got into Buffy The Vampire Slayer TV show. Have you seen any of these episodes? They're fantastic! We rented the first season from Netflix. We got into it so much that we didn't want to wait for Netflix to send us the next disk, so we bought seasons 2 and 3. I've been curious about it for years, but never took the time to watch an episode. It looked too cheesy and bad for me to like it. But academic critics LOVE the show. So we decided to check it out. It is really well crafted. The cast is perfectly chosen and the stories actually have commentary (from an academic standpoint) on society. Each episode is self contained and follows a basic story arch. It's a whole lot of action, a bit of spookiness, a touch of romance, with a generous dose of campiness. I love a show that doesn't take themselves too seriously.
Anyway, the point of this is that you should go rent the first season and check it out. And secondly, the best quote from a TV show, I heard from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. The character Oz (Seth Green) notices that the monkey in the Animal Crackers box has a shirt and pants.
“The monkey's the only cookie animal that gets to wear clothes, you know that?…So, I'm wondering, do the other cookie animals feel sorta ripped? Like, is the hippo going, 'Hey, man, where are *my* pants? I have my hippo dignity!' And you know the monkey's just, (with a French accent) 'I mock you with my monkey pants!' And there's a big coup in the zoo.”
So there we have it. The best quote in television history;
“I mock you with my monkey pants!” ---Oz (Seth Green), Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Season 2, Episode 10
