and I just keep doing this
Since you guys showed up for the lyrics meme, and the movie quotes meme - which, btw, there are still two movies no one guessed - I figured I'd do it with TV shows too. Especially since I think these memes are fun, not just when I do them, but when other people do them too. (If you did it and I haven't answered, assume I didn't know any answers or that I didn't see the meme.)
The movie meme turned out interesting - a majority of the movies were guessed within 10 minutes, and then a couple took until today, while a couple more remain unguessed. This time, I've tried to avoid the too easy stuff, while still not making it impossible. Some shows have large fandoms, some have small ones or none, some are brand-new, other decades old. (Those of you who have followed my fandom-hopping may stand a pretty good chance!) Oh, and one quote belongs to TWO TV shows, and if you can guess them both I'll reward you with... um... well, what would you like?
Anyway, on to the TV show quotes:
1. "I excel at not giving a shit." (Dead Like Me, first spotted by nefariouscory)
2. "You're cutting school? But you like school, remember? You're a geek!"
"I gotta help Mark find a job."
"That's a great idea! I'll cut too and help him find his shoes!"
3. "It is designed by clever scientists in such a way as to shield the unprotected user from skin abrasions, serious head trauma, and of course - Daleks." (Coupling, first spotted by sabra_n)
4. "I have something I think you should see. If you don't mind, I will begin at the beginning. Long before Christ the king of Judah was a man named Josiah."
"Boy when you say beginning, you mean beginning." (Lost, first spotted by eponine119)
5. "My ego got so big it left me." (This is the quote with two shows. The first one is Press Gang, first spotted by sangerin. Can you guess the other?)
6. "Have you any idea what a future would be like with me?"
"No, but I know what it would be like without you."
7. "A chance to go undercover in high school, a la 21 Jump Street! Obviously I'm Johnny Depp. Sadly, you can only pass for Holly Robinson."
"Why can't I be Richard Grieco?"
"Why would you want to be Richard Grieco?" (Psych, first spotted by bats_eye)
8. "You give him time. I'd like to put him over my knee."
9. "You're such a dick."
"Yes, I know."
10. "Honey, you're a boy. It doesn't matter if you're fat or not!"
11. "We're not gonna sleep in the rain, are we?"
"No, silly. You don't sleep in the rain, you make love in the rain."
"Ah. What if there's lightning?"
"Then you get to be on top." (Dharma & Greg, first spotted by irmelin)
12. "Maybe I'm a little attracted." (Angel, first spotted by bats_eye)
13. "Are you kidding me? I have millions of teeny tiny things inside me that might kill me at any moment. I have spent the last two days running for my life from people who want to kill me because of these teeny tiny things that might kill me at any moment. So, do I want a cup of coffee? No, I don't want a cup of coffee. I want my life back." (Jake 2.0, first spotted by bats_eye)
14. "An apple a day keeps the... never mind." (Doctor Who, first spotted by ligia_elena)
15. "I could jump you right now."
"I could kill you right now."
"My idea is more fun." (West Wing, first spotted by irmelin)
