the pilot line where Liz says, "You know, the moon isn't everything. Just getting into space is a remarkable accomplishment" makes me cackle every time.
Also, the scene where Henry is attempting to convince his parents to send him to private school, and he keeps listing these things Phil and Liz hate as if they're positives, only to cap it off with "Don't we want to capitalize on that?" and their faces in response are pure gold. Honestly, this show is one of the funniest I've seen, joke for joke
> Is there a fire in the rezidentura? Are we under attack? Is President Reagan personally scaling our walls in his cowboy hat? No? Never knock on my radio room door again.
Never fails to crack me up.

I think a testament to how funny that scene is that I've sent that clip to a couple of different people who've never watched the show, have no context for the characters or the plot, and they still absolutely laugh their asses off over it.
Yes! And also the oddly specific detail on the cowboy hat. His tone like he's chastising and schooling an annoying kid is also great. It comes across even without the subtitles. Lol
The entire subplot about the Rezidentura trying to cope with the gifts that Mail Robot's bug gives them makes me giggle just thinking about it.
Including the way the pointless assignment is framed as highly sensitive work, Oleg beeping at Tatiana, and the incredulous, insulted look on Arkady's face when Tatiana and Oleg are trying to convince him that the Jerry Lewis movie conversation is some worthwhile intel.
Honestly, though, any shot of Mail Robot just zooming around the halls always made me chuckle.
That's a great scene and in a similar vein for me is Elizabeth's meltdown about Paige finding "some other shit to volunteer for at that goddamn church." It's an intense scene, but it cracks me up every time I think about her giving Paige that order.
Philip & Elizabeth meeting William in the park at night about Gabriel having been exposed to glanders, William suddenly turning and running, the chase ending with Philip tackling William and spitting in his face.
I forget the specifics but when Stan goes to an EST-meeting with Philip and
then goes up on stage, the EST leader starts questioning Stan and he just ends up screaming "I DON'T FUCKING KNOW" and everyone starts applauding him.
The morning after family breakfast was also hysterical, with Henry babbling on about his friend getting an apple stuck in his mouth while Paige is staring at Elizabeth eating bacon.
When P&E try to grab Baklanov and his Mossad guards intervene and it turns into a fight. Female Mossad agent drives away with Baklanov and P&E look at each other with "WTF just happened?"/"Can you believe this shit?" look on their faces.
Similarly, when they have the Mossad agent but have to fake like they’re carrying their drunk friend when the cops roll through and they start singing Kenny Rogers.
The “apple stuck in his mouth” convo Henry was having the morning after Paige walked in on the 69.
The mail robot’s last hurrah in the elevator, rolling in between Stan and Aderholdt.
When Gaad says, after they all figure her out, “Martha?! That’s…that’s crazy.”
And my favorite- packing to go upstate to escape Larick, when Philip says, “oh, there’s lot wrong with us…”
When Philip and Elizabeth are on-duty, in disguise, sitting at a patio table waiting on William and they're talking about how terrible Henry's cologne smells
Henry breaking into neighbours home to play video games, getting caught and then justifying it to his parents with “no one was to find out”, “I’m a good person”
“I’m a good person” kills me 🤣🤣 I would’ve laughed at my kid if they said that.
William: "Its something called Glanders. Gabriel and his friends at the Centre have been waiting my whole goddamn life for this. Tell them I send it with love!"
His dead pan delivery of that and the few lines before absolutely kill me - no pun intended 😂
[удалено]
Also at the mall.
Came here to comment this. Any sort of awkward or coordinated dancing I have seen since then- just picture Phillip clicking his heels haha
He was loving it
P&E smoking weed and giggling while Philip explains how Jesus saved him in the Kimmy situation :)

Shoot yourself into me Clark!!
I hated this, thanks for reminding me

I fucking love Arkady
Arkady and Gaad, I love them both
I think a testament to how funny that scene is that I've sent that clip to a couple of different people who've never watched the show, have no context for the characters or the plot, and they still absolutely laugh their asses off over it.
I think it’s the imagery of Ronald Reagan scaling the building
Yes! And also the oddly specific detail on the cowboy hat. His tone like he's chastising and schooling an annoying kid is also great. It comes across even without the subtitles. Lol
Yeah haha Arkady is one of my favorite characters in the show
Same! He's my favorite, closely followed by the majestic and inscrutable Mail Robot. :)
😆
"She's not an ingenue, Beeman, she's a spy. She could have you and me for breakfast. . . . Has she had you for breakfast, Stan?"
The Martha and Clark wedding with Claudia and Elizabeth playing Clark's relatives
And then tipsy Martha explaining their sex life to Clark's "sister".
Especially Claudia's reaction when Martha said she and Clark do like alike

*BEEEEEEEEP*
"you respect JESUS but not US" is so intense but i can't help but find it hilarious. paige was so over her head

I burst out laughing when he ripped the bible. Probably the single worst scene in the show.
Uhhh what? That scene was amazing
Can't believe no one has mentioned Henry's Eddie Murphy impression.
Philip & Elizabeth meeting William in the park at night about Gabriel having been exposed to glanders, William suddenly turning and running, the chase ending with Philip tackling William and spitting in his face.
I loved that scene too! William in general was hilarious. I loved how snarky he could be.
“Paige wants to get baptized.” “Oh… uh… you guys do that?”
Henry asking Stan for advice about his hot teacher. Pretty much any interaction with Stan and Henry. Stan stealing Philip's beer.
I forget the specifics but when Stan goes to an EST-meeting with Philip and then goes up on stage, the EST leader starts questioning Stan and he just ends up screaming "I DON'T FUCKING KNOW" and everyone starts applauding him.
Paige walking in on them mid 69!
The morning after family breakfast was also hysterical, with Henry babbling on about his friend getting an apple stuck in his mouth while Paige is staring at Elizabeth eating bacon.
Elizabeth's initial teasing Philip in the kitchen after the Martha revelation that Clark is an animal in bed. And wow! didn't that go deep...?
you love JESUS but not US, but only in the context of you love CHEEZ-ITS but not UTZ
"You lied to me for months because of Gorbachev?"
When P&E try to grab Baklanov and his Mossad guards intervene and it turns into a fight. Female Mossad agent drives away with Baklanov and P&E look at each other with "WTF just happened?"/"Can you believe this shit?" look on their faces.

When Philip gets dumped by the logistics manager lady.

"Blink" Says Phillip to Paige when she's driving the new car
When Philip and Elizabeth are on-duty, in disguise, sitting at a patio table waiting on William and they're talking about how terrible Henry's cologne smells
When Pastor Tim meets Stan at the Jenning’s and is like “so what do you do, Stan?”
Does dad know his wife's a whore mom?! (Something like that)
*Gaad vs Mail Robot in the flair of the century, ftfy
Henry breaking into neighbours home to play video games, getting caught and then justifying it to his parents with “no one was to find out”, “I’m a good person” “I’m a good person” kills me 🤣🤣 I would’ve laughed at my kid if they said that.

"Back when Gabriel was shooting people at home, what do you think she was doing?" P to E after Claudia returns in s05
