Tom’s 2005 appearance on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” created an enduring moment that took the internet by storm. Displaying his cheerfulness for then-girlfriend Katie Holmes, watching him repeatedly jumping on Oprah’s couch became a viral sensation on YouTube.

This incident captured the audience’s attention and quickly became a comedic scene, inspiring numerous parodies, including clips from movies like “Scary Movie 4” and the popular television show “Family Guy.” Tom’s exaggerated reaction on the show sparked widespread discussions and media coverage, fueling the trend of mimicking his enthusiastic behavior over the couch for laughs.
