Pamela Adlon: Bobby Hill

Quotes 

• Bobby Hill : Folks, I'm so white, during the riots, I went out and bought a television.

• Bobby Hill : My dad brought me here. He wanted to show me how sad and lonesome you are underneath.

  Roger 'Buddha' Sack : [feigning sadness]  You right, you right. Buddha Sack is a sad man. But not as sad as your daddy's sorry self with his four eyes, too-many pies, super size, crackerjack prize... somebody help me out here...

  Bobby Hill : And he likes French fries!

  Roger 'Buddha' Sack : Ladies and gentlemen, this kid's gonna be the white Rerun! We got the white Rerun up in here!

• Bobby Hill : Hey, I've been working on some new material. Check it out. "White people think the 'hood is something on their sweatshirts." And "How come the cops always be pullin' me over? What's up with that?"

  Roger 'Buddha' Sack : Bobby, let me give you a little... constructive criticism: you're not black.

  Bobby Hill : Oh. Okay.

• Hank : Look, there's something we haven't told you, Bobby, but maybe now's the time. You see, show business is inherently evil.

  Peggy Hill : Hank! We agreed not to have this discussion until Bobby is fifteen years old!

  Hank : I know, but it's time for some tough love. Bobby, comedians are show-offs. Sure, they get beautiful women and drive fast trucks, but eventually...

  Bobby Hill : They drive fast trucks?

• Bobby Hill : Yo, yo, yo, Bobby Hill is in the house, uh-huh! Would you look at all the white people standin' around, ain't got no butts! Y'all the no-butt-havin'-est people, uh-huh. And white people always be walkin' around like this, like they be crushin' diamonds or something. Look at me, I'm white!

• Bobby Hill : So how come you're in Arlen? I mean, you're really good.

  Roger 'Buddha' Sack : I got a little risque on "Moesha" a couple of years ago, and it's been hard for me ever since. Besides, TV's not where it's at, Bobby. It's just giving people the same old stereotypes, playing the same old stories. I don't want to do that. What I want to do is make people laugh and think, you know what I'm saying?

  Bobby Hill : That's why you teach traffic school!

  Roger 'Buddha' Sack : [attempting to hide his disappointment]  Yeah... that's why I teach traffic school.
