Of course it's Barney. His favourite show would be Suits.
You're up, josie.

First episode, first time the two characters meet. Apparently a memorable enough exchange that I remembered it 10 years later

No? And there I was worried it was going to be too obvious Shane may or may not have mentioned it in his last post...

Yes! It wasn't the show I was going to use, but then you mentioned it and I thought I'd be "clever" 😜

It sounds vaguely familiar, but also somewhat generic so I'm not sure if I've seen it or not lol.
Sad I missed the HIMYM quote. I knew that one right away lol.

Character 1: Good news, everyone. You have a package to deliver. Character 2: Where to? Character 1: To me. Character 3: Another job well done.
Character 3 is a robot who likes to drink and gamble.

Ok, the quotes were from Futurama.
This very short quote's from a very long-running animated series which had the same creator as Futurama. It's a catchphrase of one of the main characters.

Ah, sorry, I've never seen Futurama The new one... ooh, a tough one... could it perhaps be The Simpsons?

Yup. A friend from my university days used to use it from time to time. He never really managed to get it right. Not enough oomph.
Futurama is a show that gets quoted a lot - among people who've watched it. It doesn't really have any quotes that have become part of broader pop culture. The closest exceptions are a couple of quotes that have shown up in memes. One of them is the first quote I used. The other is Professor Farnsworth saying, "I don't want to live on this planet anymore."
You're up, josie.

Ah yeah, I've seen the memes around. That's where the "shut up and take my money" one is from too, isn't it?
Because it's what happens to be on the TV right now:

Yes, that's also from Futurama. Forgot about that one.
The new quote's not ringing any bells.

Mine is a sitcom with a two-word title, that ended last year after 11 seasons. It's not The Office, but it does use the same technique of having the characters talk to the camera.

* The initials of the title are MF * It's about three connected families * There's an inside joke that one of the actors is reading the same newspaper in this show as he was in the show he was in in the 80s/90s

I know quotes are usually conversations, but let's do this for a change...
1) “When life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life will be all like, ‘What?!'” 2) “Success is one per cent inspiration, 98 per cent perspiration, and two per cent attention to detail.” 3) “I’m the cool dad. That’s my thing. I’m hip. I surf the Web. I text. LOL: laugh out loud. OMG: Oh, my God. WTF: Why the face? You know, I know all the dances to High School Musical.”

Character 1: The hematoma caused the coma. Character 2: That's a catchy diagnosis. You could dance to that.
