[@MovieVigilante]

My favourite is the Bob Jog, because not only is it amusing, it's also literally a running gag.

[@diamund223]

Hi Ted!

[@angelawd]

It's also a highly stylized version of John Wayne's walk.

[@audreystrachman7950]

@@angelawd that's exactly what I was thinking

[@madmarrr]

The best is David constantly asking ‘Who’s Gwen?’ whenever she’s mentioned!

[@tiffanystarbeck2279]

That a great line! That's why he and I so much in common, I so understand him.. every part of him!

[@BearHawks]

Nope!! David's "Oh God", (softly) are priceless!!🤣🤣

[@tiffanystarbeck2279]

@@BearHawks like the first scene "where's that weird man? Well he's been in there a long time OMG " and turns his head when Roland opens the bathroom door 😂

[@BearHawks]

@@tiffanystarbeck2279 Yes!! Or ALL the times "people" disgust him.🤣🤣

[@tiffanystarbeck2279]

@@BearHawks or "what if I'm not ready to come home " "you have a bug on your dress" "FUCK" or " don't know how to fold in broken cheese " he truly is my spirit animal!! 😂😂😂

[@fatsajak]

one of the more subtle running gags was asking for something and then rejecting it. for example.. moira: oh, i need some tea. twyla! twyla: tea? moira: no, thank you. there are a few of those moments in the show and they ALWAYS get me.

[@ramiemimie9549]

Or when one of Alexis's old friends (I forgot her name) asked for warm water that has been left out to cool and then when twy gives it to her she’s like “oh I didn’t order that” ✋️😭

[@kentrodrigoroble8822]

and the scone patrick bought for her

[@yvesrenzo9964]

yes, LOL. (patrick offers to get moira tea from the cafe) patrick: anything else? moira: nothing else for me dear, just the scone. patrick: ..you mean the tea? moira: why not? thank you! (later, after patrick returns and hands her the tea) patrick: I wasn't sure about the scone so I got one just to be safe. moira (looking perplexed): there's nothing wrong with treating yourself, dear.

[@iancampbell5487]

Yes! Like when David said to Moira “I wasn’t sure about the scone, so I just got one just in case” and she said “there’s not problem treating yourself dear” even though she asked for it😂 Also I don’t think I quoted these perfectly, but it’s close enough

[@dianabautista3409]

My favorite fake book was the one that Ted gives Alexis 'Opening Your Heart to Animals: A Guide to the Benefits of Caring for Something Other Than Yourself"- LOLOL umm...very specific!

[@lucasward5808]

They actually made that into a book as well! It's able to buy on Amazon, I think

[@NatzTalk]

🤣🤣🤣 right?!!!!

[@dmlewis76]

The best running gag was hands down how obvious it was that Gwen didn’t like Bob. Locking him out of the house, telling him not to come home if Christmas World didn’t get approved, etc

[@TheLauren800]

Agree think this should have been on here!!

[@stuvisweetypie]

Never noticed this!!

[@stephaniem839]

[@tjwash2]

[@leslievarney6695]

“her male cousin is visiting again”

[@Dayneishadavis]

Lmfaooooo Twyla was the sweetest because she was a millionaire! She literally had no worries at All! I loved that for her

[@dianef.1592]

When that was revealed, it allllll made sense. Lol

[@NatzTalk]

I loved this when we found out!

[@TheLauren800]

I would switch out David disgusted face with David’s love of food!! “I didn’t carry you up a Mountain not to eat cheese” will always be the best!!!

[@susanforrest3360]

David's sweaters! Especially the one with giant stars of David appliques. Perfect. David lipsyncing simply the best to Patrick. A genius show. Binge watching it now.

[@BearHawks]

"Sorry, I was shame eating".🤣🤣

[@lucyhurst2534]

“The cookie was more than enough!…in fact I ate half of it on the way over here” You have to love someone who has just informed the love of his life that he needs time to process the hurt he’s just inflicted on him, then hints for him to fetch him some food from the bbq lol

[@oliviakinter179]

David responding “I don’t know what that means ...” multiple times. I do a great Moira impression!

[@StarSeptember]

"I don't know what that means" is also a spectrum (autism) thing. People often say things they expect others to understand when what they say literally doesn't make sense.

[@CliveNDerek]

@oliviakinter179 Word for word the same response as yours.

[@tanyaw2283]

My favorite gag is Moira’s vocabulary choices... I’m going to rewatch the series with a dictionary handy!

[@pamelalansbury94]

She used the word “buttressed” once and I’m waiting for the chance to use it myself

[@lynnstevens4690]

“Why it’s practically obsidian in here!” I use obsidian all the time now.

[@goldenbeauti]

My favourite is “jabberwocky”

[@susanneely5810]

I thought I had a decent vocabulary, until Moira. I looked up more words than I'd like to admit in those six seasons.

[@misstocoa2766]

I dont understand 1/4 of the things she says

[@RandomFandomDragon]

Maybe it's not frequent enough to be considered a running gag, but I love David and Stevie's "Best Wishes" "Warmest Regards" exchange.

[@NatzTalk]

Yessss! Cuz they're being totally sarcastic! 🤣🤣🤣

[@armymom1952]

I really loved Moira's different PJs--always with a coordinating tailored vest and sometimes a brooch.

[@BearHawks]

My hubby commented on that!! Who sleeps in a suit!?🤣🤣

I related to this because I do this to my daughter all the time.. Ever since she was little and I do it to toddlers! They seem to love it💛

[@poowins3254]

love this because at first it was her not liking hugging or any physical affection so she just "boops" them and by the end of it, it was more of a sweet and signature gesture and isnt a substitute for a hug

The name dropping, especially when done by Alexis.

David Rose's disgusted face is my face whenever I'm out in public.

[@marianneharms5836]

I like how [mostly] David and Alexis ask [mostly] their parents .. “What does that mean?” Examples: David asking Moira what “fold in the cheese”means, and asking Johnny what “word to the wise” means. 🤣

[@mfrazer2598]

Moira's unidentifiable accent is the best!

[@tessaducek5601]

Its more an exaggerated pronounciation of words then an accent.

[@ourcorrectopinions6824]

Affective transatlantic, old-hollywood theatre RP accent with a side of drunk.

Yeah, you’d think people who make these videos would know what a “gag” is when compiling a montage... but neuuu.

[@karenfromfinasse8430]

I think one of the strongest messages I've received from watching Schitt's Creek is that female comedians continue to have value. Catherine O'hara, I sadly admit I only knew from Lydia's mom in Beetlejuice... and that was from a movie 30 years ago! She is so talented and funny! I look forward to seeing whatever she stars in!

[@lcoffey4]

Please tell me you have seen her in all the Christopher Guest movies...? If not, go watch them all now! Catherine is hilarious and incredible in them. Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind, and For Your Consideration. She is one of the main ensemble characters in the first three, and the star of the fourth. Eugene Levy stars in all four movies as well, and they play couples in two of them. They are stellar movies full of wacky characters, just like Schitt's Creek.

[@ItsJustLisa]

You will love them! When you see them, you may get a sense of where Daniel got the knack for creating wacky, yet very believable characters. “This Is Spinal Tap” was Christopher Guest’s first foray into hilarious mockumentaries. I’m pretty sure he and Michael McKeon invented the genre and they just got funnier from there. “A Mighty Wind” and “Best in Show” are my favorites. Eugene and Catherine together are comedy gold. Daniel and Annie clearly have that same magic.

[@markp6586]

I love Moira.... from her wigs to her singing .... to all of her mispronunciations! She’s a gem!

[@jennyjudd7580]

What about the gag when the cafe menu keeps getting bigger over the seasons?

[@armymom1952]

I didn't notice that it kept getting bigger!!! lol

[@GothamSiren86]

Definitely because of the Rose's for sure lol. Also I loved how Alexis either got used to Twylas bad smoothies or she got better because she ordered them throughout the series even though they were notoriously bad from what Ted tells her in season 1 lol.

[@victoriae.2371]

[@gottacatchemsome]

My favorite running gag was how none of the members of the Rose family (Stevie included) ever paid for anything at Rose Apothecary. From Alexis stealing lip balms to Moira putting a jar of cream in her purse to Stevie leaving with a plunger, it cracks me up everytime.

[@lucyhurst2534]

“ I over paid for a wedge of Brie last week, so I think we call it it even”

Moira’s accent is a Canadian thing, It’s kind of how we would pretend to speak in a La-dee-da way, about someone who is full of self-importance. What’s hilarious to me as a Canadian fan is that Moira has so naively taken on this way of speaking for real. Lots of irony there.

[@milissaovershiner8760]

.. She's Canadian, though?

[@ourcorrectopinions6824]

It’s definitely NOT a Canadian thing, but that gave me a good laugh. It’s a consistently inconsistent affectation of pretentious old-hollywood theatre RP, transatlantic “drunk” and a drop of East London.

[@youdontmatter2me]

My *favorite* running (like every ep.) “gag” was David’s choice in fashion. I know it was supposed to come off as over the top, ridiculous, & odd (as well as the special care he gives his knits-which most of the world calls sweaters). Some of them admittedly cracked me up, but most of the time I was envious. I’m sure part of that is the fact that I became totally enamored with the character of David Rose. And from his public interviews & appearances, Daniel Levy is a doll as well.

[@zachpayne3533]

Really? John's gift-giving? That concept was only mentioned in one episode. It does not deserve to be considered a running gag, and there are plenty of other actual running gags in the show that deserved to make the list: *Ted's affinity for puns *Roland's inability to keep his cool when needing to act or pretend *Moira's ever extensive vocabulary *Everything about Gwen *Ray's many side businesses *Ray always bringing up the Rose family's downfall in every conversation Just some examples of actual running gags that should have been considered
