Archer - his ability to keep count of every bullet fired
30 Rock - Kenneth being immortal
Archer has a weird level of detail for such a “dumb” show. In one episode Lana shoots him in the foot, a few episodes later he has a scar on that foot. It could totally have been dismissed, but they immortalized it. So everything in that show has the ability to become a running gag.
Archer:
“Maybe I am Autistic…”
“…in a manner that would go unmatched until the 1989 release of Belgian techno-anthem, Pump Up the Jam.”
Paul Rudd on Conan when he shows a clip from his latest project and it’s a scene from the 1987 film Mac and Me.
“I just want to tell you both good luck and we’re all counting on you”
“That’s what she said”
In the movie The Cheap Detective, Peter Falks character is seen repeatedly pulling random fully bartended and prepared drinks from his drawers.
At one point he is offering it to someone else and even asks them if they prefer shaker or stirred and then magically pulls out exactly what they ordered from his drawer.
Idk why but that shit made me laugh every time
The drawers of his desk not his underwear.
Thank you for saying that. I read it as underwear the first time and thought, “That’s pretty low humor for Peter Falk.”
Correct

I leave my gag at home when I run.
My mind goes to the literal running gag in the ancient webcomic 1/0. It was the word GAG given arms and legs and it would run around out of sight and turn up quite literally when the strip needed a punchline, or at least I think that was the idea.
The giant chicken. Haven’t watched an ep of FamGuy in years, but that was always the best.

There’s a bunch in the Simpsons, but my favorite is probably them trashing Arby’s. I always thought marketing didn’t work on me until I started watching the Simpsons and mysteriously stopped liking Arby’s.
Me and a close friend have this 2+ years long running inside joke about a particular city in England that nobody else would get. We could be talking about the most random and seemingly completely unrelated thing and the inside joke about the city gets interjected in. Sometimes I beat my friend to it by mere seconds!
SUDO
Guys, I think this counts.
