    Alright so the first family guy reference was very successful, along with the lines from That 70's show and Robot Chicken. This thread will focus on any random SW quote or reference in any television show. Like always, if theres already one of these lock and redirect!

    Mad TV: Michael McDonald is thinking of a porn name with Star Wars flare.

    Woman: What's your desired porn name?
    MM: Um, Luke thighwalker.
    Woman: Already taken.
    MM: How about ... Darth Invader?
    Woman: All the Star Wars names are taken.
    MM: C3P- Blow, R2-Do-Me?
    Woman: All star wars, and star trek names are taken!

    Simpsons:

    Ralf: *after falling* Ow... I bent my wookie!

    Patty and Selma: The bitterness is strong in this one!

    2ge+her:

    Chad: Awww they're so cute! They look like Ewoks!

    Friends:

    Chandler: Does he have a life sized Imperial Stormtrooper from the Sharper Image?

    Denise Richards as Ross's cousin: Last time I saw you, you were setting up a tent in the Return of the Jedi line...

    Undergrads:

    Gimpy: *in the tune of duel of fates* I like Star Wars I like Star Wars!

    Gimpy: Say they're as broke as carbonite miners on Cloud City.

    Gimpy: Now to discuss whether Yoda's voice sounded more like Grover or Miss Piggy.


    Of course theres hundreds. So hopefully this thread will be very very active :)

    LOST

    There's heaps, but I love Sawyer's line to Jin when they're building the raft:

    "No, no! This one goes there, that one goes there!"







    You serious? Why have I never noticed this before? Do you have an image? :D

    Sure do, I hadn't seen it before but I'd heard people point it out so many times that I figured I should check and it's where they said.

    As it takes off in the background you can see the wings move down which is cool.

    On a episode of Night Court, when Dan Fielding takes Bull to a nightclub, he says something along the lines of "This place is better than the bar from Star Wars!".

    Dexters Lab

    If you guys still remember this show, oldschool Cartoon network. Theres an episode where Dexter is "training" and his hyperactive sister Deedee is in his backpack, A la ESB.

    Then theres an episode where Dexter has some muffins and his father appears out of the shadows and tells Dexter "I am your father." Dexter says "No, that's impossi- oh wait, you're right." Then the father replies with "Dexter, join me,come to the muffin side, it is your destiny!"


    oh man, that show was genius.

    Not to mention the Starlight Intruder from the Dark Empire comic books making not one, but two appearances in Firfly.

    [image=http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/d/d0/Starlight-Intruder--as-seen-in-Firefly.jpg]

    It's the closest ship to the camera.

    That 70's Show - There are loads! Here are a couple that I can think of off hand:

    ~Donna is in california, and Eric Foreman wants to go out and get her~

    Eric: I mean, did Luke Skywalker just sit at home and call the empire? No. He took a trip on the Millennium Falcon payed a visit to the Death Star.

    ~Later on, Eric is talking to his parents about making the trip.

    Eric: I mean, did Luke Skywaler -
    Red: Oh would you stop it with the Star Wars crap? Luke Skywalker this; Luke Skywalker that. I am tired of hearing about that little fruit.
    Eric: Luke is NOT...He and leia clearly...

    That 70's Show - 2
    Eric is going away to Africa and Donna is thinking of a present to get him. She can't think of anything so she dresses up like Leia in ANH (white dress with the hair buns).
    Eric: Can I touch your buns?
    Donna: Eric...(thinking he meant her butt)
    Eric: Not those buns...The buns. (referencing the hair buns)
    Donna: That's kind of weird.
    Eric: ~Laughs~ Yeah...Can I just rub my face up against one of them? ~Proceeds to rub his face against the hair buns~

    Later, he tells Donna that the only thing she can say is "Use the Force eric".
    Again, later, the house catches on fire, and Donna and Eric run out of the house. Eric is only wearing underwear and a Stormtrooper Helmet. Donna's hair is all messed up.

    Then theres that one where Red is teaching Eric power tools, and Eric teaches Red Star Wars characters using his action figures.

    I love that 70's show. I feel a connection with Eric Foreman...

    I might not be getting this one exactly right, but here it goes...

    Cheers

    In one episode someone in the bar gives away the ending to a movie that Frasier hadn't seen yet, and Frasier storms out all angry and in retribution gives away famous spoilers, including "And Darth Vader is Luke's father!" When he's gone (I think it's) Norm says something like "Yeah, tell us something we don't know." And a very shocked-looking Woody says "Darth Vader is Luke's father?!"

    Later Woody think's he's got it figured out, declaring, "Wait, Darth Vader CAN'T be Luke's father: they have different last names!"

    I think that's my favorite moment of Cheers.

    I've been watchin How I met your Mother lately, and there's a few there. My favourite is when Barney is becoming the suit wearing womaniser that he is in the show, and the transformation mirrors Vader (when the suit is being put on) in RotS.

    I just watched Stargate SG1 and in this episode, O'Neal and Teal'q went over to Carter's house to try to cheer her up. So they bring a pizza and a movie and the movie is Star Wars. You find out that O'Neal had never seen Star Wars before until Teal'q watched it and Teal'q watched it 9 times in a row( Teal'q is a Star Wars fan :D !). I really found Carter's line funny. She looked at O'Neal with this look of disbelief and told him 'You never seen Star Wars before!?'.

    Reign of Fire

    While telling the children a bedtime story the 2 elder males reenact the Epic Duel from ESB


    Family Guy

    Best one of these is:
    Stewie vs. Osama duel choreographed to the Yoda / Dooku duel of AOTC;
    The Tusken Choire;
    or Jek Porkins riding on top of the X-Wing in the Blue Harvest special

    Patty and Selma: The bitterness is strong in this one! "

    I have to admit I did chuckle at that one.

    I just happened to catch all of the Family Guy SW references on the Blue Harvest DVD the other night and I must admit: the above mentioned clip was very amusing.
