I'm putting together a list of Lionel Hutz/lawyer lines from the
Simpsons and I'd appreciate any submissions. Post 'em right here.

Thanks

Dave.

Perhaps you should take a peek at Haynes Lee's Lionel Hutz File, it contains
virtually every Hutz's line ever said on the show, plus everything you ever
wanted to know about Hutz and the "Pastey-faced Lawyer".

In "New Kid on the Block", Lionel Hutz convinces Homer to sue the Frying
Dutchman restaurant for not letting him have "All you can eat.".

(scene goes something like this...)

Homer: "So, do you think I have a case?"

Hutz: "Mr Simpson, I don't use the word 'hero' lightly...but you are
the...greatest...hero...in...American...history."

Homer: "Wa-hoo!"

There are so many more Hutz quotes that deserve recognition, he is
definately the best minor character on the show. By the way, what was the
last episode he's appeared on? It seems like a million years.

Hutz: "Mrs. Simpson, your sexual harrassment suit is just the thing I need
to rebuild my shattered practice . Care to join me in a belt of scotch?"

Marge: 'It's nine thirty in the morning!"

Hutz: "Yeah, but I haven't slept in days" <GulpGulpGulp> "Last
chance."<Gulp> "Oh, yeah......."

These are two of my favorites:

It was a right pretty speech sir but I ask you what is a contract
Websters defines it as an agreement under the law which is unbreakable,
which is unbreakable..... excuse me I must use the restroom.

And as for your case, don't you worry, I've argued in front of every

That reminds me of another great quote from the same episode.
Flanders, as Satan presents 'the jury of the damned', which
includes, amongst others, Richard Nixon:

Nixon: But I'm not dead yet.

Flanders/Satan: I did a favour for you Nixon!

Nixon: Yes Master.

Great or what?


James.

My favorite Lionel Hutz line is in court,

Hutz: I want a ... uh... bad court thingie!

Judge: You mean an objection?

Hutz: That's why you're the judge and I'm the.. uh... law talkin guy.

My favourites.

Lionel Hutz: "Your honor, I'd like to ask for a bad trial thingy."
Judge: "You mean a mis-trial."
LH: "That's why your the judge and I'm the law-talking-guy."

Or.

"Mr Simpson, I am forbidden to promise you a large cash settlement but, I
promise you a large cash settlement."

Or the name of his law firm in the mall. "I can't believe it's a law
firm."

This is a lot funnier for me because a friend of mine is a lawyer, but not
yet of the caliber of Lionel Hutz.

Gord.

Replace "objection" with "mistrial" (and "dog" with "son" and "kind of"
with "repeatedly" while you're at it) and you'll have the quote as I
remember it.

Lionel Hutz in the episode where homer sues the frying Duthcman

I don't use the word "hero" very often" but you, Mr. Simpson, are the
greatest hero in American history.

Doesn't get much funnier than that

Hutz- Your Honour, I'd like one of those bad court thingees.

Judge- You mean a mistrial.

Hutz- That's why you the judge and I'm the law-talkin'-guy.

the best line of hutz, in my opinion, was the one where homer is on trial
vs ned the devil, and hutz comes back with a pizza, something like-here's
your pizza, since we didn't win. Marge: but we won. hutz: that's ok, the
box was empty.

That's "remember", "lawyer", and "faux pearl necklace". Also "Lionel".
"Faux" is French for "artificial" or "fake" and comes from the same
root as "false".

Judge: This verdict is written on a napkin. And it *still* says
guilty!

I realise that technically this isn't a Lionel Hutz line. :)

This one is, though:

"Ooh, he's gonna win."

and:

"I'm not wearing a tie!"

PvP.

How about:

"Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising
since my suit against 'The Never-ending Story'."

or

"Mrs. Simpson, you're in luck. Your sexual harassment suit is just the
thing I need to rebuild my shattered practice. Care to join me in a belt
of scotch?"
"It's 9:30 in the morning."
"Yeah, but I haven't slept in days."
