Kingfish used to say a certain line a lot. Does anyone know what it was? Frank Sinatra,Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. used to imitate it a lot. If you know it feel free to e mail me at tabusue@warwick.net
Would be much appreciated.

I gave a few days ago I'm chang-
ing the answer to http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/frown.gifLet's simonize
our watches). This is something
else The Kingfish said a lot.

This sounds more correct.

One that I personally did not hear; however, have heard forever - While he was speaking with a lady he pulled a cigar from his coat pocket and said: "Exxxcuse me while I whups this out!" Was she thinking of the cigar?

The line you are thinking of was used by the Rat Pack on numerous occasions.

Dean & Sammy would quote the Kingfish saying...

"If the Lone Ranger is as ugly as your mama then the Lone Ranger gonna be aLONE for a long long time."

Frank also loved the Kingfish and quite often used the line..."Now wait da minute!"

Hope this helps!

He never said I's Regusted, That was Andy. He did say Holy Mackerel & Oh Me. He also never said Excuse Me While I Wupps This Out. He only said Let's Simonize Our Watches on one episode & The Lone Ranger line was never used on the tv series.

I thought I remembered both Kingfish and Andy saying "I's regusted," but my memory has played tricks on me about other things too.

I'm reviving a pretty old thread, but maybe someone will be interested. I'm pretty sure I can remember Sammy Davis joking around with Dean Martin and saying "Who da Kingfish?". I didn't know at the time, but this would seem to relate to the episode where Kingfish says this pretending to have amnesia to avoid responsibility, and I believe Sammy was using it in a similar way when he was caught out at something. Anyone else remember this phrase being used by any of the Rat Pack?

I believe "Let's simonize our watched" was said during a car chase scene from the Amos & Andy episode "Restitution".

You would have to have seen that when it originally aired in order to know it. That episode is one of the 7 or so still allegedly lost unless it's been found and I wasn't aware of it.
