Quotes 

• Maurice (Buddy) Sorrell : I gotta call my wife before she gets ready to burn the dinner. Boy, you heard of pot roast - she makes roast pot. Hello, Pickles, honey? Yeah, it's me. Oh, boy, have I got a thrill for you. I'm not comin' home for dinner.

• Melvin (Mel) Cooley : Believe me, Rob, as the producer, I'm sorry.

  Maurice (Buddy) Sorrell : We believe you, Curly. You're a sorry producer.

• Melvin (Mel) Cooley : It was the sketch. I knew Alan wouldn't like it. And when it comes to comedy, I have an unerring instinct.

  Maurice (Buddy) Sorrell : That's right, you got the instinct of a herring.

• Rob Petrie : [after getting off the phone with Laura]  I'd have never believed it.

  Maurice (Buddy) Sorrell : What?

  Rob Petrie : That sweet, lovable, understanding girl I married - she's turned into a... wife!

• Melvin (Mel) Cooley : Miss Blake, our audience doesn't care how sleepy we get. We must give unstintingly of our strength and talent. Our work must come first. We must never allow our personal pleasures to interfere with our work. Now, if you'll excuse me, my wife and I have tickets for the theater tonight.

  Maurice (Buddy) Sorrell : Goodbye, "We"!
