RIP the first incarnation of this thread.

We've all seen those moments that make us snicker like pre-teens and wish we could elbow someone conspiratorially. My favorite so far is from Good Deal with Dave Lieberman. Cute Dave was making letter-shaped cookies with some kids, and he made one of his first initial. The first thing he says? "I've got a big D!" Oh, I just bet you do, Davey.

What about you? Share with the class, please.

It looks like a very dumb movie, but every time I see the trailer for "Epic Movie" I get the giggles during the part where the "Lucy" character kicks the beaver. "A talking beaver! Ah!"

I can't remember if anybody posted this one in the posts that got sucked into the Rift, but anyway.

Episode 8 of Torchwood, the headquarters of TW goes into lockdown. Doors lock, power goes down, etc. Jack shouts for Ianto, and meets him on a short staircase. Ianto has a torch in his hand, which immediately swings into an erect position.

Given the general tone of the show, Ianto's torch-wood (see what I did there?) may well have been intentionally dirty foreshadowing the two of them coupling up, kinda, too.

[PhantomChic]

Yeah, I kind of doubt anything on Torchwood is unintentionally dirty. They probably have brainstorming sessions about how to work in more innuendos.

Yeah, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the stopwatch thing later that episode.

Last night on Law and Order, when referring to nailing a defendant for murder, McCoy uttered this immortal line:

"I need the biggest stick I can get my hands on"

Heh.

Jeff Probst has so many good moments when doing the play-by-play on competitions. Some gems, unfortunately no longer in order:
Ozzie's holding his pole. He's reaching. He needs a longer pole! Yul has his pole together. Is his pole long enough? Whose pole is longer?
Ah, good times!

Commentators are always a great source of moments that appeal to the 12 year old in me. A couple of classics from British sporting commentators:

David Coleman did half the sports commentaries for the BBC for years. He made so many slip-ups that could be mis-interpreted that they became known as "Colemanballs". The most famous comes from a race in which Alberto Juantorena was on his way to a gold medal in (I think) the 400m:

"The big Cuban opened his legs and showed his class"

And (from radio, admittedly, but well worth the mention), having watched Ian Botham accidentally walk into his stumps, despite his best efforts to step over them (cricket, so I realise 99% of TWOP has no idea what I'm on about):

"He didn't quite manage to get his leg over..." followed by about 5 minutes of schoolboy giggling. No exaggeration. Good to know they're just as bad as me.

Miles O'Brien, the CNN science reporter, owns this thread. Do you guys remember that clip of him talking about the size and shape of NASA's next shuttle? I think he actually had a model rocket positioned in his lap in a rather, erm, interesting way. The Daily Show actually picked up the clip and ran it with minimal jokes because it was so damn funny.

O'Brien, though, TOTALLY won my respect because he went on TDS a few days later and was quite good-humored about the whole thing. I think he even brought the model rocket along.

One of our local sportscasters for the Sacramento Kings (basketball for the sports challenged) always talks about penentration during games. We've turned it into a drinking game but we never seem to make it to the end of the game since we're always sloshed by the 3rd quarter (yes, he really says the word that much per game).

[Eegah]

On Babylon 5, the telepath Lyta Alexander is genetically modified so she can carry the essence of aliens called Vorlons around inside her head (or something, it's not really made clear). After one Vorlon leaves her, she says "You didn't have to pull out of me so fast. You hurt me." Writer J. Michael Straczynski didn't realize it at all until some of the actors got together and let him know.

On an Australian morning talk show recently, they had a cooking segment where the guest chef asked the male host to whisk something for her. He did, but the camera then proceeded to film him vigorously whisking from the chest up, so you couldn't see the bowl and all you saw was his look of intense concentration and a very active right arm...

I giggled :-)

Then found out later that it was done on purpose as comedic relief. I think I'd rather just think I was 12.

Leave it to Beaver is a goldmine for this topic.

Mrs. Cleaver: "Don't forget your rubbers, Beaver."

Or

"Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver?"

Holy shit, cannot stop laughing.

Speaking of unintentionally dirty moments, I was watching Foster's Home for Imaginary Kids' newest ep (Say It Ain't Sew). And one of the characters, Bloo, was waiting around for his "buddy" in a fabric store, so they could go to the fair (thus the buddy). In his mind, its taking so long that when his buddy finally is ready to go, he's all old and withered up and his buddy (who was already ancient) had turned into a skeleton on a sewing machine.

The unintentional dirty part? The character looked like a shriveled up penis. LMAO! I am serious, the way the character is design, it looks like this. But when they added wrinkles... XD

Yeah, I am twelve... But being honest, I am sure its intentional, but nobody said anything.

I think this got lost too in the Great Meltdown:

I think it was a commercial for Toyota (at any rate, a car company), and at the end of the commercial, the letters drop in one by one: G O F A R T H E R so that if you freeze-framed and advanced frame by frame, you'd get: G O F A R T

While not a particular fan of potty things like that, it was hysterical in a 12-year-old way, so I rewound back and forth over and over, laughing harder each time.

What about this thing?
It's like some feminist nightmare of a dick with teeth. And limbs!
And they're not any less phallic (or unattractive) IRL.

Isn't that supposed to be on the Disney Channel. :) And, ha!

Ew. *snickers*

Welp, I am off to become a better person and grow the eff up. :)

Well, as the Wikipedia article notes,

"I Love Lucy" has a number of great ones for this, most due to changing slang. The one best example I can think of off the top of my head:

Lucy: Ethel! Fred! Stop fighting!
Ethel: Who's fighting? That's how we make love!


The all-time best, I-totally-can't-believe-they-got-away-with-that moment, though, is from the episode where Lucy writes that lousy musical for the Wednesday Afternoon Fine Arts League. Ethel plays Lilly, of the Valley, and Lucy plays Camille, "the snaggle-toothed old gypsy queen". For some reason, Lucille Ball played Lucy-as-Camille with a really pronounced speech impediment. Best moment? When Lucy-as-Camille gestures to a bench, then says quite clearly to Ethel-as-Lilly, "C'mere, and shit down..." You can actually see Lucille Ball react ever-so-slightly as she realizes what she just unintentionally said, and the audience, of course, goes nuts, but CBS let it stay in.

I'm a huge Golden Girls fan. There are scenes in various episodes where the ladies do a group hug. I've always noticed that Bea Arthur ("Dorothy") puts her arm around the other person's lower waist rather than across their backs or around their necks like the other characters do. Also, even in scenes that aren't sad or emotional, she would sometimes rub other characters' hands as she talked, or stroke their arms with her finger, or wrap her arm around their necks while having a normal conversation. I don't know if she was directed to do that or if Bea is just naturally a touch-feely person. In any case, it's just something I've observed. But she always was and always will be my favorite character on that show.

Nickelodeon used to have a fun cartoon called "The Angry Beavers". I first found it in the Saturday 7 a.m. slot after having been up all Friday night. After a commercial break, the announcer intoned: "We now return to The Angry Beavers" or something similar. I cracked up and all these images of angry genitalia yelling at each other flashed across my consciousness. Which is odd, because the titular characters didn't really look like vulvas or beavers (click the link for pictures). The power of suggestion, I guess.

Not one of my finer moments.

Late one evening I was scrolling through the guide and my husband said "Stop! Whoa-that might be something hot"

all we could see was "The Naked....." ...................and then I looked at the channel. It was Nickelodeon, and some show called The Naked Brothers Band.

Not as hot.

From the 06/25/2007 episode of Hell's Kitchen:

Voiceover Guy: “Vinnie wants to impress Chef Ramsay with his meat.”

Related to that, how about all those damn "Hillshire Farm" commercials that end with "Go Meat!" I can't be the only one who finds that dirty.

Now how did I miss that?

I almost fell off the chair last night when Chef Ramsey said, "Fuck me senseless." Of course all we heard was "Beep me senseless." But I will share that my dirty mind said, "Yes Chef, right away Chef."

Last night on Top Chef, the Quickfire challenge was to scoop up as much seafood from an aquarium as you could, then prepare a dish. People were trying to open conch (pronounced "conk") shells, which is mad difficult to do without the right tool. Leading to this gem by a male chef:

"I don't have time to dick around with my conch."

And, Bravo didn't bleep any of it.
