Several of my blog buddies have had movie quote quizzes over the past few weeks, and I always enjoy this type of trivia. I've decided to join the fun by having a TV quote quiz. Below are 16 quotes from TV shows. If you know any of these put in a comment and I will give credit to the first person who gets a show right until all the quotes have been identified. I will identify any quotes that have not been claimed by Sunday.
Best of luck.

Oh am I that hopeless?
Sheesh, the maths are one thing but this?
I think maybe O is PeeWee Herman. Maybe.
Feeling vulnerable and afraid, I slink away.
I didn't think that Pee Wee's Playhouse would be the first to go, but you nailed it, Fran.
Some others are easy, at least I think they are. Others may go unidentified.
I definitely have seen/heard [b] before, and I know [e] from somewhere as well. It's killing me that I can't think of [b].
I'm going to take a little bit of a guess with [h] -- WKRP in Cincinnati?
I believe the line about Vic Hitler was from Hill Street Blues.
Also, after some reflection, I believe that [b] is from Los Simpsons.
C is from Firefly.
A is the Wire?
E is Buffy.
J is Babylon 5.
K is The Mary Tyler Moore Show (The Death of Chuckles).
P is The Chappelle Show.
Every entry so far has been correct. All have been updated.
Karla, a is Ziggy talking to the duck.
I have added a little extra cluey goodness to m, both to make it reachable and to make the quote accurate, to the best of my recollection.
Yeah, that made it MUCH easier: Fawlty Towers.
Zig!
G is Dah Tick!
Extra hinty goodness added on Friday.
I'm going to guess that L - that kim novak had some big breasts - is from seinfeld.
pretty sure hatcher guest starred.
Good work, Jolie. Your answer has been noted and logged.
yay! extra credit!
