Kind of the meta-Stock Phrase. A character says a cliche line (or famous quote from a movie) in some appropriate situation and sends up the lameness of it by noting he was wanting an opportunity to say it. Sometimes phrased as "I've been waiting years/all my life to say that." Naturally, simply saying the words together doesn't count. It has to be a situation where the person can say it and mean it, completely straight.
A variation, usually used after an Obligatory Joke, is "Someone had to say it!"
The Genre Savvy's way of Playing with a Trope.
A slight variation is when a character has always wanted to hear the phrase said to them. A common Lampshade Hanging, for example, of any cabbie who is told to Follow That Car.
Contrast I Can't Believe I'm Saying This.
Here is a compilation with a lot of examples of this trope.

Angel: At the end of season 2, the gang finds themselves in an alternate dimension determined to rescue Cordelia who was swept through earlier. It's a demon dimension where humans are slaves. The gang is captured and sent before the monarch for sentencing only to discover Cordelia's been made the monarch due to a prophecy about her visions. The servants expect her to demand the death punishment as required and her friends want her to free them. Her response? "Off with their heads!" followed quickly by "Just kidding!" and a sheepish acknowledgment that she always wanted to say that.

Dominic Deegan, Oracle for Hire: At the conclusion of the "Battle For Barthis" arc, Dominic (having just manipulated events to bring down the arc's villain) does a reversed variation of the trope. Realizing the situation is perfect, he thinks, "I've always wanted to say this!", looks around (he's all alone when he does this), and then cackles, "Dance, puppets! Dance!"

Persona 4: The Animation:
In the opening of the 6th episode, Igor is not in the Velvet Room so Margaret says "Welcome to the Velvet Room" in his place and then invokes this trope.
As Kanji is chasing the Investigation Team, Yosuke makes a good attempt at invoking this trope by reminding Chie of the line in the movies, "You keep going and I'll handle this guy" and telling her that it's her chance to say it. Chie even concedes that Yosuke has a point before Yukiko dissuades her.
Said by none other than Adachi when he arrested Rise's stalker and said: "Save it for the station, pal".

Tanya Huff's Smoke and Shadows series includes a main character who works on a genre TV show; he and all of his friends are extremely trope-savvy, and the tropes, usually lampshaded, occur on a roughly one-per-page basis. In the third book, Smoke and Ashes, a character calls another to tell him "There are six kinds of Hell breaking loose and heading your way!" When challenged, he cheerfully admits he's always wanted to say that.

In an episode of Andy Richter Controls the Universe, one of Andy's co-workers kept using the sort of cliched phrases that show up on this page, and remarking afterwards that he'd always wanted to say that. Situations that warranted such phrases kept coming up, and Andy grew tired of his co-worker saying them, so he asked him if he might stop. "But I only have two left." He managed to cross off the last two and was rewarded with a great sense of fulfillment.

Power Rangers:
In Power Rangers Zeo: While the Rangers are riding on horses chasing a runaway bus, Rocky says "Let's head 'em off at the pass!", with Adam invoking this trope immediately afterward.
Sensei Kanoi of Power Rangers Ninja Storm during the episode where he gets trapped in Shane (the red ranger)'s body. Answering the communicator, he says, "Go for Sensei", then says the aforementioned line.
Syd of Power Rangers S.P.D., invokes this after saying "You do the crime, you pay the time."
Chip of Power Rangers Mystic Force commented in the episode "Long Ago" that he'd always wanted to say things were "quiet... too quiet."
In the next episode, "Inner Strength", he invokes this after shouting "All aboard!" at a magically conjured train station.

Garfield:
In this strip, Jon tells Garfield "Stop whatever you're doing" and later admitted he "just always wanted to say that".
Likely the same thing happens in this strip, where Garfield had really, really wanted to make that joke, and Arlene had finally given him the right set-up line.
Jon YELLS "ROCK AND ROLL!" out of the blue and admits that he "always wanted to yell that". Unfortunately for Garfield, he was drinking coffee when Jon yelled, which causes Garfield to spit out his coffee in shock and spill it all over himself.

Nyaruko: Crawling with Love!: Nyarko and Mahiro undergo a "Freaky Friday" Flip in one episode; in the preview for the next, Nyarko-in-Mahiro takes advantage of having a male voice to shout "I'll correct that kind of adult, you philistine! Sniping the target!" Two things worth noting: Mahiro didn't really have a "male voice" to begin with, and Nyarko would probably have said those quotes in her own body, too.

Irregular Webcomic!:
Done by the author; a reader suggested a joke to him, but it took him seven years to use it.
Done by Captain Paris of the "Space" theme; in its portion of the Series Fauxnale, she announces they're going to deliver cargo, declaring "Second star to the right... and straight on till morning!" She then admits this trope when Iki Piki points that would result in the Legacy heading straight into a black hole. In the first Space strip since the webcomic's return, it gets retconed that there's legitimacy in Paris's command, just as long as they avoid the black hole.

The Lincoln Lawyer:
Mickey is told not to leave town by Detective Lankford at one point when they are waiting on ballistics analysis that could implicate Mickey in Raul Levin's murder. Lankford is highly amused by this.
Mickey gets one of his own in The Crossing. While arguing a pretrial motion against an ADA named Wright, he drops the line "Mr. Wright is Mr. Wrong." Bosch, who was in attendance waiting to meet Mickey after the hearing, says that he heard that line.

In one episode of Herman's Head, as Herman discusses a Zany Scheme with Louise, she dramatically pipes that it was Crazy Enough to Work. Responding to his puzzlement she explains that there are two lines she had always been dying to try, and that was one of them. The other? — "Captain -- it is I, Ensign Pulver, and I just threw your stinkin' palm tree overboard! That one's gonna be a little harder to work into conversation." Later in the episode, Louise's voice is heard triumphantly intoning that phrase over the din of a busy party and the audience is left wondering what gave her the necessary opening.

Chip of Power Rangers Mystic Force commented in the episode "Long Ago" that he'd always wanted to say things were "quiet... too quiet."
In the next episode, "Inner Strength", he invokes this after shouting "All aboard!" at a magically conjured train station.

At the conclusion of the first story arc of Fables, Bigby gathers everyone for "the parlour scene" - the classic whodunnit ending where the detective gathers all the important characters together to tell them who did what, and how, and how they figured it out. He notes that he's always wanted to do it, only to have another character point out that they're not in a parlour. A shade impatiently, he overrides this objection and proceeds to lay it all out anyway.

In Gargoyles: During the reanimation of the cyborg Coldstone, David Xanatos joyfully yells, "It's alive! Aliiive!" then turns to Demona with a huge grin and says the trope name. Which is really quite understandable, considering that the preceding scene was just one hunchbacked assistant short of a Frankenstein reenactment.

In the original Paper Mario, Toad Housesnote the free inns you run across on your journey have a slogan: "Refresh your Body and Soul!" The Toad you can find hiding in a wardrobe in a guest room of Peach's Castle always wanted to say it; you give him an opportunity when you come along. (However, you have to already have found him. Recommendation: Come back after fighting Bowser the first time.)

Monk:
From the pilot "Mr. Monk and the Candidate":
Another variation from Season 2's "Mr. Monk and the Very, Very Old Man" (given how rarely Captain Stottlemeyer manages to beat Monk to the solution):
In another episode, Season 6's "Mr. Monk and the Birds and the Bees," Monk is away and unable to do The Summation.
In Season 7's "Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever", we infer that Natalie is saying this in subtext when she signs off her lottery appearances with Monk's normal line, "You'll thank me later."

The Real Ghostbusters did this on occasion, in reference to the tablecloth scene from the movie (listed above).
One time, Venkman offered to swing from a chandelier to help capture a ghost, but Spengler accused him of making the offer because it was something he always wanted to do. He then added, "Well this time, what you've always wanted to do is something I've always wanted to do." Venkman happily yielded the chandelier to Spengler.
In "The Grundel", the team needs to find a number quickly. Ray tells Slimer to "go through the phone book". The ghost does, literally, and comes out with the number written on his stomach. Peter teases Ray about having been waiting to say that, saying he's had that look on his face.

Star Trek: Lower Decks has a "always wanted to do that version" regarding Shaxs. It's something of a Running Gag during the first three seasons where he'll suggest ejecting the warp core as a solution to a problem even if it clearly wouldn't help. This finally comes to a head in the season 3 finale when the crew finds themselves in a situation where doing that is actually a good idea. Shaxs is practically in tears when Captain Freeman gives him the order, and the entire crew lines the corridors to cheer for him getting to live out his dream as he heads down to engineering.

An "I've always wanted to do that" example in ReBoot: During the festivities at Enzo's birthday, Big Bad Megabyte crashes the party, and brings out... a guitar, with a dial turned to 11. Megabyte begins jamming, almost painfully because of how loud it is. Then Bob steps up to face him, seeming angry at him for crashing the party. Then he commands his keytool to turn into a "BFG"... a Big Fucking Guitar, and thus begins a rocking guitar duel, between the Hero and the Big Bad! After finishing, Megabyte says the line (with emphasis on the "always"), gives birthday-boy Enzo his guitar, and leaves without causing trouble.
Another example occurs in the second half of Identity Crisis when Bob and Dot commandeer a viral binome transport, and Bob tricks one of the guards with an impression: "You! Look lively or I'll have you deleted!" and tells Dot that he's always wanted to do that.

Joel tells Servo, "You know something, Mister, you ask too many questions," kisses Servo and then declares "Y'know, I've always wanted to do that!" His excessive mugging to the camera indicates that he was using the phrase ironically.

Back to the Future Part III:
After hijacking a steam locomotive, Doc Brown blows the engine's whistle, saying, "I've wanted to do that all my life!" There's a Shout-Out to this in Robert Zemeckis' The Polar Express where the boy protagonist does the same thing and says the same line.
Earlier in the movie, Doc and Marty are discussing how to catch up to that train on a short timeframe. Doc is more familiar with the local area than Marty (or at least, more familiar with traveling around it with 19th-century technology), so he points out that they will have to "cut 'em off at Coyote Pass!" This does not receive an explicit remark, but considering that Doc is explicitly stated to be a fan of the Old West several times in the series, maybe Zemeckis just figured it wasn't needed.

In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, the bellboy calls Phoenix 'Detective' adding that he knew Phoenix isn't a detective, but he always wanted to say that. He also writes an affidavit, despite Phoenix telling him it's not necessary, simply because he's always wanted to write one. Additionally in game 1, Phoenix and Maya are saved from certain death at the hands of the mafia by the timely entrance of mostly-inept Detective Gumshoe. He greets their gratitude with the phrase "Just doin' my job." and notes that he always wanted to say it.

Garrett, P.I.:
In Dread Brass Shadows, Crask remarks that it's the first time he's seen Garrett without some wiseass remark. Garrett speculates that Crask has been waiting for ages to say that.
Garrett himself invokes it when he gets to say "Egad", at the sight of Morley's foppish new look in Petty Pewter Gods.
And when he tells off Medford Shale, his great-uncle, in Faded Steel Heat, he recalls having always wanted to do that when he was a kid and had to suffer the old fart's grousing in silence.

Into the Looking Glass:
Master Chief Miller took advantage of an opportunity to use a phrase he had waited "most of his adult life" to say when kept from entering Disney World to investigate a possible gate by local security. The phrase? "We're in no mood for Mickey Mouse."note For those not familiar with the idiom, "Mickey Mouse" is also derisively used to refer to silly/stupid stuff, often in the form of "Mickey Mouse shit".
In the next book in the series, the captain of humanity's first starship is beside himself with delight when he gets to say things like "Engage warp drive" and "Ahead Warp 1."

Jumanji: The poor Butt-Monkey cop, Carl, has been thoroughly abused (along with his car) for the entire movie. But the cherry on the top is toward the end when he takes the children's aunt to their home, and they hear screams inside. When Carl can't get the door open, he grabs his gun, grins at Aunt Nora, and says "I've always wanted to do this," and tries to kick the door in. The key word here is "tries." Instead, the monsoon on the other side of the door breaks through the door and sends them down the street with a couple of alligators.

In one episode of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic, Raphael gets to point a gun (actually a stun-ray) at an enemy's face and invites him to "Make my day!" (predictably thinking that he'd always wanted to say that).
At an earlier stage in the same fight a turtle reflected on the possibility of making Splinter say "You have done well, Grasshopper" just once.
After the reboot, Michelangelo always wanted to tell someone that their evil space empire's butt was about to get spanked by the Rebellion, and got that opportunity with Krang.

This Bites!:
After Cross fails to learn Kureha's secret to eternal youth (guessing the most prominent theory in the fandom):
Itomimizu, the Foxy Pirates' announcer, finally gets his chance to start and interrupt the SBS.
In Chapter 43, Cross pulls Joseph Joestar's "Your Next Line Is" gag, then says that he had been waiting to do so for a long time.
Cross apparently has a bucket List Of Things He Wants To Say At Least Once In The Right ContextTM.
In chapter 48, Cross is happy he finally gets to use the world "bamboozle".
In the Strong World chapter, both Shiki and Dr. Indigo are happy they get to use Cross' favorite taunt, "Pi~ra~te!"

Doctor Who:
"Tooth and Claw" has a variation in which Rose tries to get Queen Victoria to say "We are not amused." Her delight when Queen Victoria does indeed say it is short-lived because she also exiles her and the Doctor and sets up the Torchwood Institute to fight him if he returns.
"The Sound of Drums":
"Voyage of the Damned" features the following dialogue from the Doctor:
Which he has, at least twice — just not as the Tenth Doctor. "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" confirms it's a line he can never resist.
"Voyage of the Damned" also features the Doctor finally getting to say "Allons-y, Alonso!" after wanting to say it since "Army of Ghosts". And there's the way his face lights up when he finds out Alonso's name.
"The Eleventh Hour": The Eleventh Doctor says "Who da man?!" Admittedly, he didn't say outright that he always wanted to say that line, but you can tell from his body language that he's just been waiting for the right moment for it. He immediately promises to never say it again.
This exchange from "The Power of Three":
The Doctor gets a unique opportunity in "The Husbands of River Song" after a lifetime of being the Phrase Catcher — and makes the most of it.

The Spoony Experiment has a Running Gag referencing a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode which urged the viewers to reference Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome whenever the word "thunderdome" is used in their life. If something in a movie reminds Spoony of Mad Max, he'll ask "Can't we just get beyond Thunderdome?" and celebrate the reference. During a recent spate of such jokes where it seemed like he was working one in every few weeks, Spoony humped the air and cried "I! CANNOT! BE! STOPPED!" The best part? On MST3K itself where this originates, the entire sketch is about it being a lame joke with a series of contrived setups that Crow and Tom are eager to invoke. Mike is so infuriated by the lameness, he has to be bound and gagged before the sketch can begin. Thus it's in the spirit of the gag to invoke this trope mercilessly as Spoony does.

In Diabolik, Eva Kant admitted she had always wanted to say "In the name of the law, you're under arrest" after doing just so. The fact she's a wanted thief and murderer, and before going into thieving (or killing anyone) was an industrial spy, must have made her really giddy when a disguise for a heist finally gave her the chance.

Used humorously in the first episode by d'Artagnan (the son of the Dumas character), who stops Jacqueline in the middle of the "all for one, one for all" catchphrase:
In a later episode, King Louis tries to say the catchphrase and is met with similar resistance. He ends up using it and quoting "I always wanted to say that" exactly, in a Deleted Scene Dream Sequence.

Durarara!!:
Shizuo Heiwajima, one of the strongest human beings in existence, found being attacked by Honor Before Reason Seiji hilarious when he and Celty encounter Celty's goal. Nevertheless, he took Seiji's You Shall Not Pass! behavior with great aplomb. "I've always wanted to say this! Go on ahead and leave him to me!" Because Seiji amuses him, Shizuo only gently headbutts him to unconsciousness.
In episode 13, Kinnosuke Kuzuhara mentions that he always wanted to say this if he ever ended up hunting down a supernatural entity: "Don't screw with the cops, monster."

Genshiken:
"Not even my own father hit me." in the manga after Kanji is on the receiving end of a slap by Kasukabe. Kasukabe, being completely out of the anime loop, takes it seriously at first until the other club members congratulate him.
In Nidaime, Kuchiki uses Hato's crossdressing as an excuse to say, "There's no way anyone that cute could be a real girl," and then says he can die happy now.

Super Smash Bros.:
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, if you use Falco's special taunt in the Star Fox-themed stages (also applies to the rehashed Corneria stage in Brawl), this may come up:
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, when Snake and Otacon discuss Captain Falcon by Codec, the two enthusiastically spout off some of Cap's most iconic phrases.

In Spy Kids, when Carmen and Juni first meet their robot clones and fight each other's counterpart, she says it almost word-for-word when punching the Juni clone, only to shake off the pain on her hand after doing so (as he is a robot, he is made of metal, just like the others).
