Pupkin:
I've been giving a lot of thought to your situation, Jerry, ever since I saw you starting to lose ground in the ratings. And I think I know what the problem is. Too many of the same faces.

Langford:
Yeah?

Pupkin:
Sure, people are getting tired of these people who live off game shows and talk shows and can't really do anything. They've seen 'em and heard 'em till they can't stand it anymore.

Langford:
You know, maybe you're right, Rube.

Pupkin:
I'm sure I am. When a show runs out of surprises, it loses its audience.
