Robert Stack's Favorite Word - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

pjpiazza · 03-23-2005, 07:38 PM

During the intro of every show I wait and wonder " Will Robert be sure to mention that this particular episode is 'intriguing'"?

Intriguing - he says it 90% of the time.

shock80 · 03-23-2005, 09:31 PM

I guess its better than disturbing

TripperFan · 03-23-2005, 09:33 PM

I think he must have had both written on his headstone!!!

Here disturbingly lies Robert Stack
His death was intriguing.

Perhaps that someone is watching, Perhaps....It's you.

This is my pick for favorite Robert Stack line.

rerungirl · 03-24-2005, 07:34 PM

It seems like he used inexplicable in about 90% of the cases too.

Mr. Fuji · 03-24-2005, 09:06 PM

I gotta go with, "Incredibly..." Listen for this word. He says it at least once a segment.

i agree with mr. fuji

My favorite Robert Stack line, without a doubt, is:

"Perhaps someone from _____________'s (insert name here) past decided to make a violent reappearance." What exactly is a "violent reappearance"? Whatever it is, it was something he often used on missing person cases.

My second favorite was when they were talking about the kid who disappeared after going to the county carnival. Robert Stack said, "Perhaps he succombed to the lure of the carnival." That one about put me on the floor. Maybe it's just me, but what in the hell is so "alluring" about a carnival? The low wages? The lack of teeth? Poor sanitation? Horrible smells? Never knowing where you are going to be the next day?

I always liked when he called something a "cruel hoax"

dandelion wine · 03-26-2005, 04:36 AM

"Intriguing" and "Perhaps" are my votes for his favorite. Great thread, by the way.

My fav. two words used on UM, even though they might not have been the most frequent (I know Stack must've enjoyed saying these deep down somewhere:

1. poopooed
2. de-goo

That has got to be my favorite line! It always creeped me out when I was younger!

CrushedVelvet · 04-01-2005, 01:16 AM

"perplexing"...

Awsi Dooger · 04-01-2005, 08:10 AM

I'm convinced he snuck in that line at least once, perhaps backwards or with a few words in between.
