Designing Women - Julia's Fed Up with Jury Duty

[Walkerandstuff]

you dont even need to getup to go to the bathroom lol

[MaryTheresa1986]

Julia's rant would have made a perfect closing arguement for the defense attorney! I think Matlock has met his match!

[MaryTheresa1986]

Julia was always so beautifully dressed. I love her!

[fobialmiedo]

Dear god, that blazer, I need it in my life.

[JhonathanFree]

@fobialmiedo For your 80's party?

[wheelrchair1]

Does this scene take place before or after Charlene turns her in, because if she got in trouble when Charlene turned her in, Julia could get into more trouble for getting mad at the jurors.

[JSpearman4]

I love it! Julia was not so much attitude as she was fair. You had to really do her or a family or friend wrong for her to go off like this. So when she did it, I was right there with her saying "you go girl" LOL Even when she went off she did it with class and dignity. ROCK ON JULIA SUGARBAKER! :)

[kevman1171]

They cut two great parts out of this - I know in the reruns they make them shorter for more commercials but why cut out tow funny parts of her tirade?

Janet the mime says she isn't comfortable making a decision yet and Julia responds 'Funny, but you are perfectly comfortable smearing your face with white grease paint and annoying pedestrians all over Atlanta!' lol

[SBITY]

'Oh really.....' luv you miss Dixie

[kevman1171]

My favorite episode of television of all time. So funny. On this one for some reason they cut out a small part: "case closed, Q E D, over and out, HIT THE ROAD JACK AND DON'T YA COME BACK NO MORE NO MORE!" lol, she practically screams that part. = )

[missbeverlylasalle]

I love how her voice climbs 2 octaves in the middle of her rant!!!!

[Undeniable40]

Sorry for her loss

[Aleksei5055]

ew fried cheeseballs? that sounds gross lol

[quizzlefits]

One of the best episodes of this series. And a hilarious scene. Love this so much.

One of the few 'grand dames' of television comedy, Dixie was unlike any other. As Julia she was a fierce and powerful force, yet still refined and classy. Many times during the series, her character seemed the sensible rock among a bunch of wackadoos. And once in a while she got to just reduce someone to smithereens with words. A pleasure to watch. Thanks for the big laughs, Miss Carter. They were plentiful.

[farahesmee]

"Oh really??"

[9693297602]

Rip Dixy and she married her on screen boyfriend hey did they acquit?

[littlecreepyboy]

"I don't appreciate that."

"Ohhh really?"

That part always cracks me up.

[collegechick2009]

R.I.P Dixie Carter you was very talented

[Heathentank]

Her expression, stance, and tone when she says "Oh really?" are just flawless! That's the line that makes me bust out laughing every time.

[satireknight]

I want to be Dixie Carter when I grow up.

[polyprinz]

She reminds of Bette Davis' toughness!!!!

[richmeisterg]

At 1:32 is Dixie Carter barely able to keep herself from laughing; or, cracking up? Love this scene!

[ChicagoTyme]

I love Julia! lol She doesn't play.

[daveynm]

Have met Ms. Dixie Carter during a taping of one of the shows -- God Bless you "Julia Sugarbaker" and your family.....May Heaven know the laughter that you gave to the world for so many years......Love Ya.......

[bradleyjstevens]

This clip is hilarious! Rest in peace, Ms. Carter.

[jennysanxietyadvice]

What an actress! Could you have imagined a tryout competition between her and Agnes Moorehead (Endora, Bewitched)?!

[Matto2t]

@jennysanxietyadvice

Oooh! That would have been some competition, indeed. But then again, would Dixie Carter have been a good choice to play Endora in Bewitched? Hard to tell, because Dixie was not yet famous, and I am not sure if she had started acting by then. It wasn't until '86 that she would play Julia on Designing Women, and for that character to be her signature character. :)

[TCheeky1]

one of my faaaavorrrrrittteeesss!!!! 

I miissss HER!!!

[bethm95]

RIP Dixie Carter!! She was one of my favorite actresses. Natural beauty, Southern grace and spunk, truly was one of a kind!!

[KamanForever]

@bethm95 Yes, she was. R.I.P Dixie Carter.

Classic Julia Sugarbaker, she and Suzanne are my faves.

[NelsonY]

Oh my God! My sides are hurting from laughing so hard! I must have missed this episode when it was on Lifetime! I miss this show.. RIP Dixie Carter.

[KingAaron19]

dude this was so funny. Her and Delta Burke ruled this show. Not saying the others were bad just saying with those two they were overshadowed alot.

[SnakeDoctor24]

One of the greatest women to ever grace the screen. She makes me proud to be a Tennessean. R.I.P. Dixie Carter

[ThaPrincess2008]

"And I wanna tell you right now, read my lips. Mark your slip wrong, and I will wrap it around a fried cheeseball and shove it down your throat!" Classic Julia line!!! I love it!!! (^_^)

[Sralala22]

RIP Dixie - you were truly a Classic - never be one like you again- AND SUCH A WIONDERFUL SHOW - JUST LOVED IT!! LOVE, LOVE., LOVED You Julia!!!

[Sralala22]

RIP Dixie - you were truly a Classic - never be one like you again- AND SUCH A WIONDERFUL SHOW - JUST LOVED IT!! LOVE, LOVE., LOVED You Julia!!!

[MoonbeamZapper]

Back when tv was funny! RIP Dixie, you were a class act.

[racingfan126]

I still love this show! Years ago when I was sick, I used to watch the reruns on our local CBS affiliate each morning. With the effects of chemo tiring and making me sick, it was great to have something to laugh at! These four beautiful ladies made me laugh each episode. Sorry to hear that Dixie Carter has passed away. This beautiful and talented lady will be missed by all. Thanks for the laughs, Ms Carter!

[Psymaj]

Heaven has received a glamorous, classy angel in its presence.

[memphissimple]

R.I.P Dixie Carter your style and attitude will be greatly greatly missed!

[Aleksei5055]

@memphissimple wait?! she died?

[joyfeline]

Rest in heavenly peace Dixie, you will be missed.

[Monrocsol]

This whore going to have dinner with the Reagans. Republican whore.

[agentmarshall65]

OMG.....this is hilarious! Dixie Carter was one-in-a-million and I used to wait for her "Julia Sugarbaker" moment in each episode! She was fabulous....RIP to one classy Southern Belle.

[arevireba]

Oh Dixie Carter, you will be missed!

You had such great timing and were definitely an amazing performer on screen & theatre.

[SCS9870]

[maria39208]

@Robway28 I wish I was more like her. I am VERY close.

[goldengirl9757]

I thought Designing Women was a great show and I loved Julia. However, I strongly disagree with her politics!

[notperse]

Oh, really? Well. I don't appreciate you leavin' your big ole box of June Alyson bladder pads on MY night stand for all the maids and bell-boys to see. Of course you don't care if you ever get out of here. You don't even have to get up to go to the bathroom!

[auriasmom]

This is one of my favorite scenes ever! Hysterical!

[sethocopia]

omg to fucking funny!

[iMisanthrope]

Great stuff! And a kick ass outfit, too.

[TheatreMAC77]

I love it! I think this was one of my favorite episodes!

[notperse]

This one...and the one about Bernice's Sanity Hearing. :)

[lilfreida]

Julia is crazy,,,I love when she goes off! This had me cracking up...wow

[flipturn27]

oh holy hell, i do not think i would ever want to piss her off b.c she would make me feel very very small. lol however i totally love her and wish i could do something like this to people!!!!!! she is brilliant!!!!!!!!

[luckylips80]

[frenchhornguy123]

i loove this show i watched it all the time this and golden girls!!!

[lf1234]

Me too!!!!!!

[crazy4reba]

@frenchhornguy123 Desiging Women and Golden Girls have been my favorite shows since I was little! My faves were Dixie Carter and Bea Arthur! LOVED THEM!

[treytn]

Dixie Carter was a true grand dame of tv. As is Bettyy White

[chae9697]

i love julia sugarbaker i need a fren like her

[awdemers]

you don't even have to get up to go to the bathroom......LMFAO

[far2jfan]

give em hell julia

[dewberry70]

I am in LOVE with her jacket i would so wear that!

[ivelosthewilltolive]

It's the full 80's look fer sher...

[notperse]

Mind you, I am a HUGE fan of Designing Women. And I know that "the Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" is one of Julia's most famous diatribes, but this is definitely one of my FAVORITES!!! :) Oh, Really...?

[dramamajor1985]

Ha, my favorite part is when she says, "Oh Really!"

[Nina2560]

OMG, thats my favorite part too!!!!

[jhm]

June Allison Bladder Pants ... ROTFL

[sk8lvrnc]

Isnt the Depends lady the one who rapped in "The Wedding Singer" and took voice lessons from Adam Sandler?

I love this entire episode, this was the highlight scene!!

[RAGarrett53773]

you are so right!! that is her. this is too funny, wish this show would come back, or go on dvd. thanks!! reba

[buttacudawey]

READDDDD MYY LIPPPPSSS...LMAO...

[AIKILV]

"Did you intend to mime your vote?"

LOVE IT!!!! I chuckle every time she says that.

[DataLady91]

This is without a doubt my all-time favorite Julia Sugarbaker Terminator Tirade! I love the way Julia tears into that bunch of fools and calls them out for the idiots they are. I love it when she says "I am going to rip that fire extinguisher off the wall and blow your overfed, underread, simpleminded butts out onto the Fairprice Motel parking lot!" LOL I think the first rule of business at Sugarbaker's should have been "Don't Piss Julia Off!" Julia Sugarbaker kicks butt!

[holdmydrinkbitch]

Do not test Julia Suger Baker Honey!

[moonchild1973]

this was funy as heck!! I love Julia!!

[SeanPhillipMabrey]

Awesome... you actually see her lose some of her composure in this one!

[joelboy26]

Love this part. I laugh every time!

[payless1981]

I LUV THIS WOMAN

[willy8582]

The old lady with no lips is Ellen Albertini Dow, aka the Rapping Granny in The Wedding Singer.

[DataLady91]

She also played one of the choir nuns in "Sister Act."

[Larry091989]

It's gonna be on dvd in may

[jodiescookin]

This show was the best...too bad they will not release it on DVD....bummer.

[BlimBlam1977]

S1 is scheduled to come out soon!

[Devotedlamb19]

This clip is so funny! My favorite part is when Julia says, "I want you to come up to the table and mark your ballots and if you don't mark them right, I'm going to rip that fire extinguisher off the wall, and blow your overfed, under-read, simple-minded butts out onto the Fair Price Motel parking lot!" Hilarious!

[Devotedlamb19]

I can't get enough of this video! It's so funny! I love Julia's tirades. My favorite part is when she says, "If you don't mark them right, I'm going to rip that fire extinguisher off the wall and blow your overfed, under-read, simple-minded butts out onto the Fair Price Motel parking lot!" Hilarious!

[DataLady91]

That's my favorite part, too! Julia is so freakin' awesome!

[LaserZoom]

tina fey - liz lemon, 30 rock

[TCheeky1]

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE JULIA!!!

AKA Dixie Carter

She is soo awesome!

[kjhen]

"Of course you don't care if you never get out of here, you don't even have to get up to go to the bathroom"

[Dancefreack16]

Julia and Dixie Carter are my role models and heroines.

Dancefreack16

[notperse]

Oh really...well I don't appreciate your leaving your big ol' box of June Allison bladder control pads on MY night stand for all the bell boys and maids to see. :)

[DataLady91]

This is the funniest Terminator Tirade I've ever seen! Julia Sugarbaker is one of my heroines - I love how she's a classy, beautiful woman, but doesn't take any crap from anyone and really lets people have it! Julia kicks butt! She's a wonderful role model for young women.

[afriln]

haha! Julia rocks!

[ra86226]

The best is where she tells the old bat with no lips, "Of course, you don't care if you never get out of here.  You don't even have to get up to go to the bathroom!"

[taragruber22]

One of my favorite scenes - it really reminds me of my own jury experience.

[PRNeneChulo]

Does anyone have the scene from the episode called "Killing all the right people" where Julia goes off

[SAPPJR]

I have it, will upload as soon as I figure out this 21rst century technology...PROMISE

[ra86226]

this was one of the best "Julia the terminator" scenes of the series.

[TheOrangeFish]

"ohhh really?!" Hilarious!

[ghoulsandwitches]

"Case closed, QED, over and out!"

this is the first time i've seen this and i love her! i wanna be just like her!

[BlimBlam1977]

The full uncut line is "Case closed, QED, over and out, hit the road jack and don't you come back no more no more!"

:D

[MszFiney]

READ MY LIPS..LOL..CLASSIC...LOL.

[LAE88]

This is one of my favorite Julia moments!

[johneangel1965]

This is one the funniest things Julia has ever done! I'm gonna blow your Over Fed, Under Read' Simple Minded Butts out onto the Fair Priced Motel Parking Lot!! LOLOLOLO

[steviems]

Oh really..... LOL LOVE IT!!

[dressbenblue]

I love julia....If i were a woman, id wanna be just like her

[gameshowluvr86]

READ my lips... :D

[Shad0827]

what a classy sexy woman she was.....

[ChicagoTyme]

She looks like she's about to rip one of they're damn heads off lol

[extremeriot]

Julia is like a modern day Bette Davis....tough as nails!!!

[extremeriot]

Love Julia! She's like a cross between Judge Judy and Oprah Winfrey. Outspoken, intelligent, strong, independent, classy, fiery, and feisty!!!

[wappi79]

why compare such a lovely woman to Oprah? You ruined it with that stupid remark! Oprah is a fat opportunistic black b*tch!

[TheBobcatChannel]

funny scene!

the best part is that my cat is named after the actress who plays Julia. :D

[notaewing]

designing women rocked you didnt want to mess with them especially julia

[jleffingwell]

They cut out one of the best lines in this scene

JULIA: Janice, what is the problem? Did you intend to mime your vote?

JANICE (who is a mime): I'm just not comfortable making a decision.

JULIA: Yet you are perfectly comfortable smearing your face with white grease paint and

annoying pedestrians all over Atlanta, interesting. ...

.

[pfenix14]

LOL I forgot about that line. Hilarious!!!

[noprahwinfrey2007]

I just have one question: would she shove the ballot/fried cheeseball combo down their throat before or after she blew their overfed, under-read, simpleminded butts out onto the Fair Price Motel parking lot?

[AlbieGray]

I think it would have been after she used the fire extinguisher on them!

[noprahwinfrey2007]

Funniest moment of the entire show!

I love the way she says "Oh REALLY?"

[nedasilyah]

I adore Julie!!

[4kingofclubs22]

I love it!

[petie71]

"Didn't any of you LISTEN to the judges inSTRUCTIONS!???"

x Love her.

[AlbieGray]

Hilarious when Julia goes off on the entire jury! As they deserved, I guess, given that one is a mime and another is a no-lip woman who aggravated Julia by having her "big ol' box of June Allyson bladder pads on my (Julia's) nightstand for all the maids and bellboys to see!" Who could blame Julia for being so irate?

[AlbieGray]

Yeeha! I love it when Julia shreds those simple-minded jurors on her panel and let's them have it, especially the no-lip woman!
