Actually it was Pigmeat Markham that coined the phrase "Here Come Da Judge"

I think Nipsey, Flip and Sammy Davis, Jr. (along with the rest of the cast) used it.

Markham also coined "Look that Up in Your Funk and Wagonall"

Not to be a know-it-all or anything... well... ok, never mind.

Anyway, the encyclopedia was named "Funk & Wagnall's"; a WagonAll was (I think) an old station wagon model name; and Nipsey Russell was known for his "spur of the moment" poems which he presented while appearing on many a gameshow panel.
