They're legends. Bearly.(taglines)

Dexter Barrington

[edit]
  • [holding up a baby picture] Okay, This is my baby picture, [holds up another picture of a park ranger holding a bear] and uh... this is yours.
  • See this? This is my birth certificate. Here's yours. The Rangers used this to track you.
  • Forget it. That? That's the day Mom and Dad got you.
  • I mean, picked you up, man. You were left alone. They brought you home They showed you a bunch of Barney videos and they pretended you were their son. You don't belong here.

Beary Barrington

[edit]
  • Mom? Am I adopted?
  • I don't know. Sometimes I feel... different. Like Dex and me. We don't look the same. Our eyes are different colors and he has freckles, and I don't. I think.
  • Did you know the Bears made the only country song ever to be recorded in Polish?!

Fred Bedderhead

[edit]
  • I guess I miss the old days at Country Bear Hall. We was kinda... different, you see? And, uh, at Country Bear Hall you could be different and still fit in. Yup. Different. Mm-hmm.
  • Aw, Beary left his stuff. Hmm... [reading] "My Hero," by Beary Barrington, fourth grade. "My hero is really heroes and my heroes are the Country Bears. Whenever I'm sad I play one of their songs and I forget why I was even sad at all. And if you'd met my brother you'd know why I was always sad. I can't really say Zeb is my hero, or Fred, or Ted or even Tennessee. But as the Country Bears, what they can do together Makes them my heroes. I'd like to meet them someday. That would be cool." It says here "a+, but is everything about the Country Bears?"
  • Aw, Ted, you don't gotta lie to us. You're family. And you're going. (punches Ted in the face, knocking him down on the stage)

Henry

[edit]
  • Yeah, well, don't arrest anybody. Yeah, this place would fill up every weekend night.
  • I tell you, a lot of great music was on that stage. There's Flat and Scruggs, Liver Lips McGrowl, Gomer. Jimi Hendrix opened here for Vanilla Fudge. But nobody, but nobody was like the Country Bears. Huh! Place would be packed... people sitting everywhere even up in the rafters. You know, sometimes I'd up there just to hear the notes.
  • The music. The millions of notes that floated up there... Some of the best darn notes ever.
  • Why? $20,000, that's why. You don't got it, I don't got it. Good-bye, Country Bear Hall.

Ted Bedderhead

[edit]
  • What, what, what, what makes you think I'd get back together with you guys?!
  • Look, that's where I started out. I'm not going back. When I said I was finished, I meant it.
  • That was a long time ago, Kid. Things change. Frankly, your little nostalgic field trip you know, is Kind of pathetic.
  • People are waiting for me. You found your way in. You can find your way out.
  • You, uh, left you stuff on the bus.
  • Um, look, I, uh... mmm... I hope you know how lucky you are. It only took you three days to understand something that took me ten years to figure out.
  • Mr. Chicken is a girl.
  • Really, I want to tell you that I'm sorry. I was mad... not at you... and I'm sorry. And that thing you wrote in your journal about us being great when we're together. It's true.
  • Nah we're not doing the show. Not without you.

Reed Thimple

[edit]
  • [after destroying a model of Country Bear Hall] Oh no, Country Bear Hall has been crushed!
  • Do you like the sound of crunching wood? I do.
  • This is not over! Bears!
  • And since that day, I've been plotting my revenge waiting for the day I'd destroy the place that brought me misery. Well, that day...is TONIGHT!!! [laughs]

Roadie

[edit]
  • Have you seen my chicken?
  • I'm sorry, Big Al.
  • All right, it's time to lose those guys.
  • How about a little thing I call "Hiding in the car wash".
  • We hide in the car wash.
  • That guy's turned into a real... (interrupt-ed by Mr. Chicken's clucking to avoid insulting Ted for refusing to join the Band again) I'm going to go get the bus.

Norbert Barrington

[edit]
  • You know um... last week it was "casual Friday" at the office and I guess I forgot and I wore a tie.
  • The point is that it's not unusual to feel different and... those differences always lead us to our higher purpose.
  • Just remember, son the people who love you no matter what... that's your family.

Henry: Well, that's Beary.
Cha-Cha: Uh, ladies and gentleman can i have your attention here for a minute? Now, as most of you know Zeb Zoober owes me a whole heap of money. But his little friend there has proposed a wager. My house band versus Zeb's fiddle in a little musical duel. Now, if he wins, he owes me nothing but if he loses, the Country Bear tour bus.
Zeb Zoober: What?
Cha-Cha: This should be good.
Henry: Son, that bus is our only means of transportation.
Roadie: Not to mention that's where I raised my Kids.
Zeb Zoober: Plus, I don't think you've all seen the house band.
Tina Tamina: I'm tired! I've been with the baby all day.
Tom Tamina: Look, I work all day. I get a lot of stress from my boss. I come home, I just want to relax. Is that too much to ask? I mean, What do you think?
Tennessee O'Neal: What do I think? I think you two are so dang lucky to have each other. Oh, I'm sure you might fight over the dishes but at the end of the day... [when starts crying] at least you're going to be together. Not like me. [bang in the table] Not like me and Trixie! Oh, I lost her! [yelling] Trixie! Oh, Sweetheart! Oh, baby! [stop crying] I'm okay. Oh... [continues crying]
Tina Tamina: I feel better.
Tom Tamina: He's good.
Tennessee O'Neal: Oh, Trixie! Oh, come in. [then stops crying] Huh?! Don't tell me you're getting the band back together.
Henry: Tennessee... we're getting the band back together.
Fred Bedderhead: You... You're a Wedding Singer?
Ted Bedderhead: Yeah.
Fred Bedderhead: This... this ain't your party?
Ted Bedderhead: No.
Fred Bedderhead: So, you're not rich?
Ted Bedderhead: Yeah.
Fred Bedderhead: And you still won't play with us?
Ted Bedderhead: No. I'm not goin'.
