  "account": "As the prompt from TV critic Saloni Gajjar asks, what TV show is quoted the most? The responses from various contributors highlight the lasting impact of specific shows on their lives. Jacob Oller mentions Clone High, a show obscure but impactful in his middle school years. Its lines, such as \"Nothing bad ever happens to the Kennedys!\", have become a part of his brain's wiring. Drew Gillis talks about 30 Rock, a show that seeped into his vocabulary with memorable bits like \"mind grapes\" and \"werewolf bar mitzvah.\" He often references the show when recalling stories or events that remind him of the antics. Saloni herself cites The Office, quoting lines that are straightforwardly hilarious in mundane situations. Her favorite includes Michael Scott's famous, \"I have a lot of questions. Number one: How dare you.\" Lacy Baugher Milas extols Doctor Who, noting its relevance to almost every situation, from everyday life to professional work. The show's lines like \"Brave heart, Teagan\" can be a source of motivation. Lastly, Jarrod Jones praises Mr. Show With Bob And David, a show that molded him into the person he is today. Lines from its sketch \"Monk Academy\" are so ingrained that he even visualizes them in his mind's eye at the end of his life.",
