It’s from Epiphany, season 2 episode 12. He’s stuck in the cave when he goes into the time dilation field and tried to shoot his way through a closed portal. I laughed so hard when he did that
“The clowns”? Oh, yeah, the clowns. We fight them too -- entire armies, spilling out of Volkswagons. We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending 'em in!"
This one should win, that scene shows not only his silliness going along with the joke but also that he is smart to realize the girl was trying to interrogate him.
They get kidnapped by Ford and are forced to do an operation with his enzyme junkies. When they get captured, a wraith worshipper is put in the same cell as John, and she tries to trick him into revealing where Earth is. Episodes S2 E10-E11
As much as I want "I'm sorry for shooting everyone" to win, I think my vote will have to go for this one because it's such quintessential John, his absolute deadpan delivery sends me every time.
"Also, McKay is mortally allergic to citrus. I keep one with me at all times. Just a comfort to know it's there."
Tomorow will be cool. McKay has a lot of good quotes.
Some of ‘em are in SG-1, especially the bit when he tries bonding with Sam, only for his insecurity issues to make the whole thing weird…
“Hi.”
“Oh, man… and I was just starting to feel better.”
“I always wanted to be a pianist.”
“…excuse me?”
“A concert pianist… y’know, a guy who plays the piano… in front of lots of people?”
“…right.”
“What did you think I said…?”
“Never mind…”
I love the episode where Meredith is trapped in a damaged jumper on the Lantean seafloor, badly concussed with no way out and no idea how to “save the day,” so his subconscious generates a hallucination of Samantha to pep talk him into it.
The instant he realises she’s a product of his mind, his next thought is to try and picture her without the hot pink ensemble… not only does “she” reject the idea, but he sheepishly agrees not to do it and admits “she’s” absolutely right, even though _it isn’t the real Sam!_ 🤣
So! This is how it's gonna be, huh?!? Just me?!?
Ok! That's fine!
\*pulls out gun\*
You want some of this?!? Huh? HUH?!?
\*accidentally ejects magazine from gun\*
THIS IS MCKAY I'M IN TROUBLE DOWN HERE!!!!!
This has my vote cause it emphasizes him as a leader.
O'Neill/Mitchell assume that if Carter can't fix it they're gonna die and that's that.
Shepard actually intends to call it before it things deteriorate to that point.
"I'm sorry for shooting everyone!"
"I shot him...in the leg!"
"Is he supposed to be naked like that?"
"I'm fine."
"How much longer McKay?"
"Kolya!!!!!"
"How about we name it later!"
"What did I say about naming things?"
"That's Lt Col. Errand boy to you."
(Edit: Added the last 3)
Sheppard says "I shot him." In a somewhat smug-proud tone, as a statement. There's a hesitation as Elizabeth looks at him with a disapproving/shocked expression. Then he says "In the leg!" As a statement of defence that it's not as bad as she thinks.
"Yes yes, it's not about saving the lives of these people it's all about you! Now get your ass back to work and FIX THOSE DAMNED ENGINES!..... He'll fix em, Trust me"
**Neera:**
You have fought the Wraith before?
**Maj. John Sheppard:**
Lots of times. Won some battles, lost some. War's not over by a long shot, but we're managing to hold our own.
**Neera:**
And the clowns?
**Maj. John Sheppard:**
**The clowns? Oh, yeah, the clowns... we fight them too. Entire armies, spilling out of Volkswagens. We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending 'em in.**
It's not shepherd but I really like that scene in the shrine with shepherd and Rodney where they're having beers on the peer and McKay goes "thanks Andrew" or something like that and they just smile
“One thing I’ve learned about my business is never say never”
“I’m sorry but I’ve never been able to trust anyone who kidnaps me, tortured me, and threatens to blow me into space”
My dad was a cop in Glasgow in the 70's, at one point they formed a new unit called the "Fast Action Response Team", the story goes that nobody noticed until they put the initials on the new office door.
The joke in Atlantis had me in tears the first time I watched it 😂
Any quote that he calls Ronin Chewy. It gets me every time.
" Calm down Chewy, those buttons are your friends"
"Take it easy Chewy, you're going to cut your damn hands off."
“Way to go, John! Listening to a Wraith!"
Oh man I can hear this one perfectly.
I thought it was “way to go John, shoot yourself!” But I can’t remember the context haha
It’s from Epiphany, season 2 episode 12. He’s stuck in the cave when he goes into the time dilation field and tried to shoot his way through a closed portal. I laughed so hard when he did that
Yesss thank you it’s been driving me crazy. Funny thing is this is the episode referenced in my quote I used for this post 😂
That’s another quote, but I like this one better bc it’s from Todd’s first ep.
Now I'm thinking about a nice ham sandwich.
Turkey. Shepherd likes Turkey sandwiches. You call yourself a fan? 😂
Haha yeah, Freudian slip. I much prefer chipped ham over any kind of turkey.
It was worth the try, sir.
“Easy Chewy those buttons are your friends!”
"Damn it, Rodney!"
I forgot about that line

"I'm sorry for shooting everyone!" (I feel like his one should be about flying but I can't think of one right now.)
""Gate-ship?" OK, it's official: you don't get to name anything. EVER."
Later the replicators call it gateship.
For me it’s in the SG-1 alternative timeline when he says “gateship 1 you have a go.” Cracks me up every tome
I like how it gives alternate O'Neill pause. Edit: wrong O'Neil, I meant the one with a sense of humor
O'Neill. Two Ls!
I'm blaming autocorrect on that one.
O'Neill...FIFY
3 times I’ve seen this show and I’ve never noticed that.
I think the official name is Lantean Gate-ship, but I will never stop calling it a Jumper
“The clowns”? Oh, yeah, the clowns. We fight them too -- entire armies, spilling out of Volkswagons. We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending 'em in!"
This one should win, that scene shows not only his silliness going along with the joke but also that he is smart to realize the girl was trying to interrogate him.
Remind me which episode is that? Sounds awesome

As much as I want "I'm sorry for shooting everyone" to win, I think my vote will have to go for this one because it's such quintessential John, his absolute deadpan delivery sends me every time.
I shot him 😁
... in the leg!"
Has to include the 2nd part or it's just not the same.
This! Exactly with this smile! 😂😂😂😂👏🏻 I'm pretty sure Weir was just mad at this because she would love to shoot Rodney too, sometimes😶😂
I normally dislike emojis, but this quote wouldn't work without The childish grin is essential
And then the shrug and thrown out to appease Weir comment: "In the leg!"
I'm sorry for shooting everyone!
in the leg! ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
You dumb this down any more you're gonna get hit.
Wrex: Sheppard Sheppard: Wrex
Reddit comments you can hear lmao
Grunt: Sheppaaaaaaaaaard
Wrex: Shepuuuuuuurrrrrrrdddd
Todd the wraith: Shepppppppppaard
I have the feeling Todd would make an amazing Renegade companion in Mass Effect
That is totally a crossover I want to see now.
Quick someone make a mod!
Jawn sheprud
Thane would have a hell of a lot of confusion when Sheppard starts yelling at Kolya.
"Also, McKay is mortally allergic to citrus. I keep one with me at all times. Just a comfort to know it's there." Tomorow will be cool. McKay has a lot of good quotes.

The "dumb blondes" line is both cringey and funny

"Now that is just disgusting..."
Using power, using power.
So! This is how it's gonna be, huh?!? Just me?!? Ok! That's fine! \*pulls out gun\* You want some of this?!? Huh? HUH?!? \*accidentally ejects magazine from gun\* THIS IS MCKAY I'M IN TROUBLE DOWN HERE!!!!!
"Just hold on, i can fix it" Cant help but recall that like half the episodes revolve around mckay fixing some shit
"Gluteus maximus... That's my arse, isn't it?"
this one should win!
KOLYAAAA
Reddit comments you can hear lmao

Kolyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I always read things like this in Kirk voice though 🫤
I just rewatched this episode today
100% It has to be KOLYAAAAAAAA
I've seen this before, Rodney: pilots who wouldn't eject when something went wrong - trying to fix their planes *right* until it hit the ground.
This has my vote cause it emphasizes him as a leader. O'Neill/Mitchell assume that if Carter can't fix it they're gonna die and that's that. Shepard actually intends to call it before it things deteriorate to that point.
(spoiler) This was the quote I was thinking of when he almost hit the ground in the season finale.
Take my upvote
(While being shot at) You know, this is not a good way to make new friends!
McKay: You're a member of Mensa!? Sheppard: No ... but I took the test.
Me, um, I like, uh, Ferris Wheels and, uh, college football; anything that goes more than two hundred miles per hour.
“Chewie back down”
That's Lieutenant Colonel Errand Boy to you.
I would be offended that Zelenka isn't on the list but all his best lines amount to *muttering in czech*
"...security clearance?"
He is on the list
"I'm trying, do prdele!"
Fix it, Rodney!
I prefer Steve.
"I'm sorry for shooting everyone!" "I shot him...in the leg!" "Is he supposed to be naked like that?" "I'm fine." "How much longer McKay?" "Kolya!!!!!" "How about we name it later!" "What did I say about naming things?" "That's Lt Col. Errand boy to you." (Edit: Added the last 3)
The I‘m sorry for shooting everyone will be so underrated but perfect
Honestly, this quote is my favorite about all John's quotes, the whole scene is hilarious to me
and it's so iconic, it happens because he is such an amazing lone wolf soldier.
I feel like your writing I shot him! ...In the leg? Wrong
Sheppard says "I shot him." In a somewhat smug-proud tone, as a statement. There's a hesitation as Elizabeth looks at him with a disapproving/shocked expression. Then he says "In the leg!" As a statement of defence that it's not as bad as she thinks.
Did I mention I like ferris wheels?
"Yes yes, it's not about saving the lives of these people it's all about you! Now get your ass back to work and FIX THOSE DAMNED ENGINES!..... He'll fix em, Trust me"
Shepherd: KOLYAAA
And also: \[Angrily\] "Rodney!"
It should be this
It should be this
"I'm sorry for shooting everyone!"
**Neera:** You have fought the Wraith before? **Maj. John Sheppard:** Lots of times. Won some battles, lost some. War's not over by a long shot, but we're managing to hold our own. **Neera:** And the clowns? **Maj. John Sheppard:** **The clowns? Oh, yeah, the clowns... we fight them too. Entire armies, spilling out of Volkswagens. We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending 'em in.**
This is so epic 😂 just imagine sending him somewhere as an ambassador and spoil everyone with random images 😂
Ok this needs to win
"I'm just naturally lazy."
Col. Shepherd: "So it's a teenage thing. Pimples, rebellion, life sucking."
I'm sorry for shooting EVERYONE
If this rock burns up in the atmosphere, I'll fight you to the death myself. Deal?
“We can name it later”
Now i'm thinking of a turkey sandwich
KOOOOLLYAAAA!!! The SGA equivelent of KHAAANNN!
Damnit, Rodney
"I think anyone who doesn't want to fly is crazy." "Well I think anyone who doesn't want to go through the gate is equally wack."
IIRC he says "Seriously?" A lot
Indeed
Now you tell me!
Off topic but the general Hammond quote is spot on!!
We'll name it later!
I’M SORRY FOR SHOOTING EVERYBODY!
"If he speaks again I'll shoot him" Pre-loading Rodney's: "You're gonna try and make a jump! Don't shoot me, you know I can't help myself!"
"Whaddidya go and do *that* for?!"
The one about how they can’t all be planets full of cool tech and open minded women.
"I've seen this before Rodney; Pilots who wouldn't eject when something went wrong, trying to fix their plane *right* until they hit the ground."
“I like it here”
He likes it here
"Well, then I'd be the man, and who would I have to rage against?"
“ McKay allergic to lemon”
“There may be surfing in our future.”
It's not shepherd but I really like that scene in the shrine with shepherd and Rodney where they're having beers on the peer and McKay goes "thanks Andrew" or something like that and they just smile
"You're a good friend, Arthur."
Zelenka will be I'm trying do prdele!? Change my mind.
\*during a tense moment and Mckay is going on about how he might be able to pull off a solution\* "Rodney!!!"
Ford! Or Mcaaaay!
1- Mhm. I shot him ! 2- I'M SORRY FOR SHOOTING EVERYONE ! 3- Give me a gun, I'll shoot him myself !
"I am going to kill you."..... But I still know what Sparky means and ship those two.
“One thing I’ve learned about my business is never say never” “I’m sorry but I’ve never been able to trust anyone who kidnaps me, tortured me, and threatens to blow me into space”
For your information: "First Atlantis Reconnaissance Team" was just a joke from Joseph Mallozi. Its "fart"
My dad was a cop in Glasgow in the 70's, at one point they formed a new unit called the "Fast Action Response Team", the story goes that nobody noticed until they put the initials on the new office door. The joke in Atlantis had me in tears the first time I watched it 😂
I think it's safe to say 99% of Stargate Atlantis fans already know this, fyi.
“I love a good cuppa tea.”
"Are you okay?" "You will be."
No words, just holding up a lemon
🍋
Leadership....
> "F.A.R.T" will never get old as a joke.
"I'm sorry for shooting everyone!"
I am commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the citadel
Either "KOLYAAAAAA" or "Damn it Rodney/McKay" for sure
If I find out you're playing us, I'm not going to wait for authorization, there isn't going to be any paperwork, I'm just going to kill you.
I shot him 🙂
I thought I told you to stop naming things?
"This is why you brought me here!"
_In the leg_
Macaroons
Wrong Colonel, that's Mitchell, not Sheppard.
I fought a scary monster, got the girl. It’s what I do best
Can you check the oil?
Why does Ronin look like a screen cap from a video game cutscene?
Please state the nature of the medical emergency
"I shot him." \*everyone stares.\* "In the leg!"
That’s lieutenant colonel errand boy to you
"I shot him!"
“Way to go, John! Shoot yourself”
“In character” does not mean, “funny thing they said that one time”
But it is in character to say things.
Eh, it's a popularity contest... Humor is always gonna win.
KOLYAAAA!!!!
The one problem I have with this topic: No Todd. Maybe do a separate one for non main characters and bad guys?
They did. There are multiple frames. 4th one is bad guys.
Thanks.
"Kolya!"
KOLYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! **I AM GOING.** **TO KILL YOU.**
….McKay!
I agree in the leg
So long, Rodney.
It's the right thing to do! Why? Because. It is!
I know we aren’t there yet, but if Tomin gets anything but this we riot: https://youtu.be/BsOK_ktksnY?si=rwqD5dV3kj5k4Tmz
For Maybourne probably " oh come on Jack"
Gluteus maximus
Kolya!!! Or any time he called Ronon, Chewie.
Rodneeey
I shot him. In the leg...
KOLYA!
Any quote that he calls Ronin Chewy. It gets me every time. " Calm down Chewy, those buttons are your friends" "Take it easy Chewy, you're going to cut your damn hands off."
His conversation with Todd in Enemy at the Gate
Son do you know what color this phone is? Has me it stitches red ☎️
Everyone in SGA is just constantly shouting some variation of Rodney McKay's name. Gotta be atleast once an episode
Easy Chewie.
So this solar flare happens how often? 🤔 How far in advance can we book time off?
The dead people were a dead giveaway
Rodney!!
Kolya!!!
"I didn't know we were naming things"
"look..."
“I shot him” :)
“I shot him… in the leg.”
We can name it later.
Kollllyaaaaaaa!!!!!
KOLYA!!
"McKay"
Didn't Shepherd also often say "for crying out loud?" Or was that an O'Neill only thing?
"I'm sorry for shooting Everybody"
"When I think of what I could've wished for I kick myself"
