    21. When Kim wanted some fruit in hospital.

    Sharon and Kim are in a hospital room; Sharon says "what about some fruit, Kimmy?" and Kim says "Oh, good idea, can you get me a cherry ripe? Jumbo size."
    ABC

    It's the "jumbo size" that really takes it to the next level.

    20. When Kath said "I can't elope, Kim" while holding a rockmelon, aka a cantaloupe.

    Simple but effective pun game.

    19. Marion's obsession with Jarrah.

    Oh Marion, you boob.

    18. When Kylie Minogue played a grown-up Epponnee-Rae.

    ABC

    She had the Kath and Kim-isms down pat.

    17. When Sharon had an existential crisis after Kim ate the last Billabong.

    Who among us has not had a mental breakdown over a missing ice cream?

    16. All of Prue and Trude's rhyming exchanges, but especially the jojoba one.

    Image set of Prue and Trude in their store, the text reads "the little man from Beach Tree and Son's is coming over to talk jojoba"; "Oh, I hope he's sober"; "Oh we've got stacks of jojoba left over from October"
    ABC

    Their line delivery is everything.

    15. When Kat got cracking on her important projects.

    Kath says "better get cracking on some of those important projects of mine" and proceeds to peel stickers off apples
    ABC

    Retroactively, this whole sequence just about sums up lockdown in 2020.

    14. When Kim returned home to find her room had been transformed into Kath's gym so she could keep herself trim.

    Kath wears workout gear and Kim looks at her exercise equipment; text on the image reads "I like to keep myself trim Kim. Does it make me a crim to keep myself trim?"

    If you haven't quoted this phrase while going to the gym, are you even Australian?

    13. The entire race day sequence, but especially the carrot in Kath's fascinator.

    At the racetrack, Kim points to Kath's fascinator with text that reads "you got a bit of carrot stuck in your fascinator"
    ABC

    Honourable mention to the "Ooh la la brooch" though.

    12. Asparagus Spears. Asparagus. Spears.

    Kath and Kim talk in the bathroom; the text reads "Look at me, Mum. Don't you think I look like Britney Spears?"; "Yes Kim, you do, you do! You could be her sister, Kim. Asparagus! Asparagus Spears. Do you get it?"

    We get it Kath — and we thank you for it.

    11. Kath's chooky moment.

    Kim looks at Kath who is moving like a chicken, the text reads "bkurk Mum! You're chooky!"; "What?! Don't be a fool Kim?"; "And you've got crow's feet"; "What do you mean Chooky, Kim?!"

    What's better, Kath and Kim's dialogue or physical comedy? Trick question, the answer is both.

    10. When Kath found out Kel was a Swans supporter.

    Kath wears Tigers merchandise and Kel wears Swans; the text reads "Come on Kel, we don't want to miss our first footy match together...get out! get out of my house!"

    A similar scenario has played out in far too many homes around Australia.

    9. When neither Kath nor Kim could name the prime minister of Australia.

    Kath is on the phone while Kim sits on the lounge; the text reads "Kim quickly! For $500 who's the Prime Minister of Australia?"; "I dunno!"; "Uh Peter, I'm going to have to pass on that. Oh him? I would've got that wrong!"

    It's even funnier because at one point in Australian politics, most of us would have gotten the answer wrong too.

    8. When Kim had a sticky date.

    Kim holds up a fork with pudding on it, with text that reads "For your information, I do have a date! A sticky date!"
    ABC

    Stunning wordplay, excellent acknowledgment of sticky date pudding.

    7. Every time Kath and Kel danced, but especially the horizontal river dancing.

    Kath and Kel "dance" lying on the floor while four other people dance while standing behind them
    ABC

    It's a thing of true beauty.

    6. When Kath and Kel spent their honeymoon in the airport.

    Kath and Kel stand in matching sweaters in the airport, looking at each other
    ABC

    Couple goals, let's be real.

    5. When Kath turned her frustrations into art.

    A piece of art with a sign that reads "Waiting for Telstra: An Absurdist Piece, submitted by Kath Day-Knight, TAFE Floral Design"
    ABC

    There are so many layers of comedy here and it culminates in this one spectacular absurdist piece.

    4. When Sharon tried to coach Kim through labour and was forever changed.

    Kim and Sharon are in hospital, both screaming; the text reads "It's alright Kimmy, Sharon will have a look! It's hideous, it's unnatural, god's a bastard!"

    Magda Szubanski had many, many funny moments over the course of the series, but this was her finest.

    3. When Kath married Kel and it was a complete and utter disaster.

    ABC

    From the velcro shoes to Kim's horse tail, it's an intricate and extended comedy of errors with an incredible pay-off.

    2. When Kim made a statue of little baby cheeses instead of Jesus.

    ABC

    Everything about this is flawless. Everything.

    1. But, of course, the crème de la crème of all Kath & Kim moments was when Kim proved she was 100% done with being corrected on her pronunciation.

    Kim talks to Brett and his co-worker; the text reads "It is Chardonnay Kim"; "Alright then, Chardonnay, Chardonnay, you pack of chunts!"
    ABC

    Easily one of the most quoted lines of the entire show. Exquisite.
