HUZZAH!
From Monster A-Go-Go:
Narrator: “There is one terrifying word in the world of nuclear physics.”
Tom Servo: “Oops.”
Jimmy Smits
“My nuts?”
“TeNperature!?”
“Gym-KATA!”
Mitchell!
Madison
Mannix!
Double Mannix!
Does “bing….bong!” from “Cave Dwellers” count as a word?
Don C.
TUSK!
Zap Actionsdower!
From Manos: “… Is golden!” “…is golden!”
From “Manos”…
DO SOMETHING!
One of the few times we saw Joel lose his cool.
From “What To Do On A Date” … “NICK, NO!!” when he ponders a weenie roast as a date option with Kay. This has become a catchphrase among my group of friends.
“Bonk.”
….Manos…..
Hi-Keeba!
Joel’s “Unbelievable” during the infamous phone ring in Monster A Go Go. He puts so much disgust in a single word.
Crow: “Bite Me!”
:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
Father Dude!
From Future War:
“It’s Superpope!”
Hai-Keeba!!!!
“Licky me” from Girl in the Gold Boots.
SLEEP!
I Accuse My Parents:
“And this is my Aunt Harriet.”
“Nuff said.”
Village of the Giants:
“Jim Begg.”
Red Zone Cuba:
“Hi-Cuba!”
Agent For H.A.R.M.:
“Driiiiiive.”
“I’M HUGE!”
“SLEEEEEEEEP!!!!!”
And although it’s not technically a riff (since it was during a host segment): “Foghat, Lawgiver?”
Kitty!
In Hired, the car salesman tells his dad he’s worried about the usual thing…”crushing puppies.”
Or, in The Incredibly Mixed-Up Zombies, “Madison”
JEEEEEEEED!(“Leach Woman”)
Saaayyyy! (Various MST3K episodes)
Violent Years
Gloria “Let’s just say it’s part of a well-organized, foreign plan..”
Crow: “Communism!!!!” (The delivery and the thinly veiled jingoism is the selling point.)
Wild Wild world of BattwomN
Servo: “Eeeennndddd!!!!”
Olé! (in Danger!! Death Ray, when Bart Fargo sidesteps and the Abe Lincoln-looking spy goes out the window)
STAAAYYY!
Also, in Gunslinger, the befuddled way Joel repeats “Googleberg…?” always cracks me up.
It stinks! “Pod People” and “Mr.B”.
Shopping News”
As in, I’m Lisa Henson with The Banner.
Crow or Tom: “Formerly the Shopping News”.
Windowpane.
“AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!”
-Tom Servo, Mitchell.
*Multi-hairstyled villain watches our Werewolf protagonist crash through a window and run off into the night, does not react in the slightest*
Mike: “Huh”
– Werewolf
McCloud !
“Rocky” “Again?”
And in the Home Economics short when one of the girls is messing with the scale and crow says “damn” with perfect timing.
Oh, man, all the best ones have been said already!
How about “Dirk Hardpecs”, “Butch Deadlift”, etc.
Rock climbing
“No Lupita!” (I’m glad we now have the actress Lupita N’Longo. I now have an excuse to use that line.)
Narrator: “She keeps her feet clamped tightly together.”
Crow: “Enough said.”
PYUUUMMAAA?
Oh, poopie.
From Merlin:
“You’re welcome!”
Some?
In the THING THAT WOULDN’T DIE, when the evil doc gets to the top of the staircase and turns around with a sinister look and (Crow)says…”WAYS”
“Kitties!” from The Day the Earth Froze.
Want some?
I’m going to the Rifftrax Live of Jack the Giant Killer when Jack is chained up in the villain’s lair. Jack pathetically and unsuccessfully lunges against his chains and Kevin Murphy vocalized it with the most hilarious sound: “Unnnnnn”
“Kitties!” from every episode it’s in!
