Spanky: Alfalfa always fails. Mickey Daniels: Mary sure is ugly! Art Baker: ...and here's Mickey and Joe... Leo Gorcey: I'll tell ya something about "Sunshine Sammy" Morrison... (a reference to this interview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0Cw2FiA6NY ) Farina: Get that watermelon away from me! The last one isn't mine. It's from a member of the Laurel and Hardy forum. But it was so hilarious, I had to share it!

Any of the kids: I hated Our Gang. It was the worst part of my life. The Roach studios wasn't fun at all, and Laurel and Hardy were so mean to us. MGM, on the other hand, was a great place! Louie B. Mayer always encouraged us to have a good time. George Sidney loved us kids! And the canteen wasn't racially segregated like the one at Roach's.

Alfalfa: Will somebody please tell Mickey Gubitosi to stop picking on me, he's forever stamping on my feet and trying to shove me out of camera shots. Alfalfa: And tell Darla to stop being so wild and unpredictable. Alfalfa's parents: We love the McFarlands! They're such great people. We wish their son all the best luck with his movie career. Spanky's parents: Oh, thank you, Switzers. But your son is going to be the real star of this series. From Dogs is Dogs - Wheezer: Get that dumb alley dog out of here! Blanche Payson: Why, Wheezer! He means no harm! Wheezer: I don't care! If you don't get that dog out of here, I'll kick you out of the house!

Buckwheat: How 'bout calling him "Spotty"? He's got lots of spots. Big Shot: Naw, how 'bout "Smallpox"? Buckwheat: I got a better idea! Let's call him "HIV"! Big Shot: That's a swell idea!

Janet Burston: I really don't think I'm right for a part in Our Gang, I tend to over act and I can't sing for toffee.

MGM talent scout: So I went to the acting school, and there was this youngster impersonating Donald Duck. I thought he'd be perfect for Our Gang...

MGM executive: Comedy is old hat we need to move with the times. I want to see big changes with Our Gang. I want to see more musical numbers, more patriotism, more morals and preferably a whining kid with a New York accent too. THAT'S what the modern audience wants, not freckle faced kids having fun.
Oops, actually that's probably what an MGM executive DID say
