It's a good question. I remember it from a commercial involving, I think, the groundskeeper at a football stadium.

Here's what the semi-reliable wikipedia has to say on the subject. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Googly_Moogly)

I only really know it from Maggie and the Ferocious beast. I love that cartoon. Shame it doesnt air anymore. Loved that yellow bastard. Who knew he had soul to him?

I knew I heard that in "Evolution".

Actually I am pretty sure the character that Orlando Jones play says something slightly different than Great Googly Moogly. I think Wikipedia has that wrong. I am trying to find the clip.

This link (http://www.mutantreviewers.com/revolution.html)
quotes it as "Great Googa Mooga" in evolution.

Groovy Quotes
Ira: If you were an alien in a shopping mall, where would you be?
Harry: Lingerie.
Ira: Not you. The alien.
Harry: Lingerie.

Harry: Great googa mooga!

Harry: No sex?
Ira: No time for sex.
Nadine: Bummer.



So does this review (http://www.contactmusic.com/new/film.nsf/reviews/evolution)

Duchovny, Jones, and the former art flick habitue Julianne Moore (who plays a Center for Disease Control researcher) seem to be having fun on the set, yet their performances are sadly listless. Reitman seems to have left them to their own devices except when lobbing comedic nothings. He practically pauses for rim-shots after duds like Jones expressing surprise by hollering "Great googa mooga!"


As well as a bunch of other links. I think I will try to figure out edit Wikipedia.
