editTrying to find a TV show by a line I remember in it
editThis might be an unconventional request and I am sorry if this is normally not allowed, but I've had this one line of a TV show stuck in my head for like three years now and I cannot.
The line: "There it is!"
Here are some clues about this show that I'm quite certain of:
==> the line is delivered by a male actor/voice actor, with a slightly deep voice, but delivered in a pitched-up sing-songy vibrato tone
==> the context seemed to suggest that the entering character has a reputation for being really snobby or obscene, and that the "there it is" is a response to some off-color remark.
==> it is definitely from the last twenty years; I'm slightly less confident about this but I *think* it's from the last 5-7 years.
==> it might be animated; maybe F is for Family? or Big Mouth? I always swore it was Rick and Morty but I went through all of those episodes and didn't find it.
I really hope it's not from a movie, that would be annoying. Anyway I know this is absolutely nothing to go off of but it'd be brilliant if somebody got this out of nowhere. Thanks and best! FuunnyFaces (talk) 06:22, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Who says it's not allowed here? That being said, my shot in the dark doesn't match anything in your description except the wording (sorta), but what's there to lose? In the film Amadeus, Emperor Joseph II says, "Well, there it is" (fairly often as I recall). See this YouTube clip at the 19 second mark. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:42, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- Clarityfiend You beat me to it. First thing that came to my mind: Well, there it is. I'll be interested to see what else it could be. Maineartists (talk) 03:02, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- I'm sure we'll be able to find at least a couple that fit. "There it is" is kind of a stock punchline, in a sitcom or late night talk or wherever, when somebody is telling an uncharacteristic story or leading down a garden path, then finally gets to the point where they say something that's "in persona" for whatever we expect from the character.

- I've seen it used a number of times in the Dilbert strip, for example. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 01:23, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

- I remember Charlie Sheen using that line repeatedly in a 2 1/2 m episode, talking to Alan. I wonder if... of course. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:08, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
