Jack: You tell me that you have satellite and high-def, and I will take back every bad thing I have ever said about you.
Johnny: Satellite, no HD.
Jack: You're a moron and a hoax, man. (edit) Jack: Sheriff Bannerman can't seem to solve a case without calling in his human Oiuja board Johnny Smith. You know, pretty soon when you dial 911 around here, you're gonna get the Psychic Friends Network. (edit) Intern: If he falls asleep and there's swelling, there's a chance that he could end up in a coma.
Jack: Coma? You mean I could wake up with psychic powers? (grabs the Intern's arm) I see a malpractice suit in your future. (edit) Johnny: If you jump, who's gonna tell us the cold, hard truth? Think of your fans--if you do this, they won't have anyone to hate. (edit) Johnny: So this is your secret place, huh? I've got one, too.
JJ: You do?
Johnny: Yep.
JJ: Is it on your roof?
Johnny: Now, if I told you, it wouldn't be a secret, would it? (edit)
Johnny: Satellite, no HD.

This was a popular (and often ridiculed) pay telephone service of the late 1990s where callers were offered psychic advice. Dionne Warwick hosted many television commercials for the service. (edit) Jericho: I refuse to belong to any club that would have me as a member.
