Quote from Chris in Everybody Hates Varsity Jackets

Coach Brantley: Chris, since this is your first day on the mat, I'm gonna walk you through some moves. You watch wrestling on TV?
Chris: All the time. Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, the Iron Sheik. I love all those guys.
Coach Brantley: Well, that's too bad, because all that crap is fake.
Chris: Oh. Well, what's first?
Coach Brantley: This is a cross-face. This is a neck scissors. This is a half nelson. This is the full nelson. This is a Ricky Nelson. That's a joke... Ricky Nelson. See, I said half, full, then Ricky. You like that?
Chris: Hilarious.

Quote from Chris

Ms. Morello: So, what have you prepared for us, Chris?

Chris: Rice, rice, rice. You think all I knows is rice? I was there when George Washington Carver shucked that first peanut. I make yams and corn and cotton, but all America wants is them little grains of rice. I gives and I gives, till I can't gives no more. Still I rise.
Ms. Morello: Oh, Chris, I have just the part for you in our next production.

Quote from Julius

Chris: You know, these shakes would be really good with a burger and some fries. Can we get some real food?
Tonya: Yeah. I'm hungry.
Drew: Me too.
Julius: Look, why don't we all just give this diet a chance? I think it's pretty good, actually.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father didn't really like the shakes. He just found out it was cheaper than groceries.
Julius: And, you know, since we've been on this diet, I've saved over $50 in groceries.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Told you.
