A catchphrase from a favorite show can take on a life of its own. It works its way from the show’s make believe world into our real one. Then…forever after…whenever/wherever we hear it we thinkof the show and the characters.
Bazinga is the catchphrase from TBBT.
Here is a list of other memorable TV show catchphrases (ranking on the site). If you were adding “Bazinga” to the list, where would you rank it?
First?
Between __ and __?
Last?

I don't agree with the order of the catchphrases above so it's hard to know where to put Bazinga on the list.
On a positive note though, you deserve an award for this thread. I think you finally found a topic that we never discussed on the old or new boards!

Did Bart Simpson stop saying "Don't have a cow, man!" ?

Don't remember seeing a previous discussion either.
Anyway…
It was the “What I am is Sexy Trash." line from “The Umbrella Academy” that gave me the idea. A mellowed out sibs said it to two of his other sibs in explaining why he, unlike them, didn’t have the save-the-day courage it takes to become a martyr. The 'Sexy Trash' stuck with me.
As for not agreeing with the list; that’s understandable; to paraphrase, “one person’s cup of tea....”

is all they'll get from others.

Happy Days also had "Sit on it!"
And I remember "Up your nose with a rubber hose" from Welcome Back Kotter.
(Kaplan's original version was not acceptable for TV.)

I remembered the Kotter one but couldn't bring myself to say it. So dumb

It was dumbed down in the process of being made less obscene for TV.

I don't know what the first one was or even that there was one.

It's mentioned here:

But I've heard of a different version too.
