How about

The calla lillies are in bloom again Stage Door
and

Oh-tay! by the immortal Buckwheat of Our Gang, a/k/a The Little Rascals

and where would we be without these from the Stooges:

Nyuck nyuck and Oh, a wiseguy, eh?

Beulah, peel me a grape

Laurel & Hardy (also various):

Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into

And let us not forget Desi Arnaz's immortal:

You got some 'splainin' to do!

Mae West--how many times has someone done a riff off of "Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"
