Mine is by far "Watch it, sucka!" I like that so much, I always say that to other people when I'm clowning around. That would get my vote more than "Fish eyed fool" and "You heaththen"

My favorite Aunt Esther catchphrase is "You heathen". :lol:

None of them was funny because she said them all the time. Maybe I should not have responded to this thread because there was nothing about Aunt Esther that was funny.lol

Watch it, sucka is very funny. I said that once to somebody who was in my way at school and they looked at me like I was crazy. They didn't get in my way anymore.

The thread asked for the favorite catchphrase, not the funniest. Esther was funny in the presence of Fred. Also, looking at her face was funny. Ha ha!

Were you joking with them or were you serious?

Joking but they had never seen Sanford and Son. I knew who they were the people who were in my way.

Often when she was preaching down to Fred and his sinful life, just before she threw open the door and pranced out stepping high, she'd yell "Ho...Glory!"

I don't know why TVShow A doesn't think she was hilarious. She was part of the vehicle for Fred's jokes.

My favorite part of Aunt Esther was when she would leave. Forget the "Praise the lord", she was off the set so we didnt have to listen to her.

I definitely love when she would say "Watch It Sucka", but I also loved the few times when she would threaten to "beat the hell out of" whomever got on her bad side--lol.

Or when Esther said to the original Woodrow:
"Woodrow, put that bottle down before I unscrew your arm and beat the devil outta you!"

Or this episode with Grady:
Grady says: "Sticks and Stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me!"
Then Esther says: "Well I'll get some sticks, and I'll get some stones, and the name that will hurt you will be Esther!"

i like ..."Fish eyed Fool!" , "I rather kiss a Snaggletooth Jackass!!!", "Shut up Fool", "You miserable old buzzard!!!", and of course "Whatch it Sucka!"

"Watch it, Sucker!"
("You ol') Fish-eyed Fool!"

lol

Just when she says "Oh Lordy!!!" as she's headed out the door! Breaks me up everytime!

But "Fish Eyed Fool" is a hoot! The episode with the jewish version imbedded in it and that alternate Esther is trying to get the line "You bagel-eyed...uhm, what's the line?"

Esther: {stands up in the audience} Fish...eyed...fool! :D

That was from "Steinberg and Son" (Season 5). The Sanford gang was at NBC's Burbank Studios and Esther helped with a certain line the Steinberg cast was looking for. :)
