Bill & Ted is "Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes!"

My man, you need to rewatch both those movies back to back to see how wrong you are.

Although Bill and Ted frequently said both "party time" and "excellent", Wayne's World wrote "Party time, excellent" into their theme song. So, the phrase "Party time, excellent!" started with Wayne's world.

But really, the ninja turtles were saying all of that before any of those guys.

Party on, Wayne!

I'm pretty sure "Party time! Excellent!" isn't in Bill and Ted at all.
It's exclusively Wane's World.

Really looks like what we have here is a case of the zeitgeist.

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure: Released to theaters February 17, 1989

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_%26_Ted%27s_Excellent_Adventure

Wayne's World started as an SNL skit, first appeared February 18, 1989.

Although Bill and Ted, as a production, goes back to 1987.

I never knew B&T to say that phrase. Their faves were always "Party on, dudes" and the like.

I'm pretty sure Wayne's World skit on SNL in the mid 80's is where the phrase was born.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 8 points 9 hours ago

It all came from SNL and the characters they played on there.

[-] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 23 points 9 hours ago

The phrase came originally from Wayne's World, which was first an SNL sketch, yeah. Bill & Ted aren't from SNL, though, and predate Wayne and Garth by a good bit. Bill & Ted said "party on," among other things, but not "party time, excellent." That's specifically the Wayne's World theme song iirc.

I believe both came out in '89
