Since no one has posted anything new on TV or movie quote threads on the OLD board, I thought I'd try to get things going here.
The last quote was posted by Robina back on March 27.
Here it is:
Character 1: What are you people lookin' at? Well?
Character 2 They're lookin' at the wee little puppet man.

Well, it's certainly some show I've never watched!

It's a sort of police procedural, if that helps...

I think we need another hint.

It's started in the 90s and there were two spin-offs (3 if you count the last one which only lasted about a year, maybe two). None of them are currently airing, except in re-runs.

Someone else can do the next one - it was C.S.I.

If this is an older show I have a guess - Dukes of Hazzard? Sounds like something Roscoe P Coltrane would say... and I'll take the 5th on how I know that...

Of course it's from The Dukes of Hazzard! I love that show and have all of them on DVD. I had such a crush on John Schneider! (still do!)
Your turn, Laurie!

oops, here goes:
Man 1: Shenandoah National Park. Right here in Virginia. We should organize a staff field trip to Shenandoah. I can even act as the guide. What do you think? Man 2: [audibly but under his breath] Good a place as any to dump your body. Man 1: What was that? Man 2: Did I say that out loud?

Need another quote?
"It's not the battles we lose that bother me; it's the one's we don't suit up for."

Hmm, I thought this one was easier than this.... let's try 2 more:
Quote 1
"This guy's walkin' down a street when he falls in a hole. The walls are so steep he can't get out. A doctor passes by and the guy shouts up, "Hey you! Can you help me out?" The doctor writes a prescription, throws it down in the hole, and moves on. Then a priest comes along and the guy shouts up, "Father, I'm down in this hole; can you help me out?" The priest writes out a prayer, throws it down in the hole and moves on. Then a friend walks by. "Hey, Joe, it's me. Can ya help me out?" And the friend jumps in the hole. Our guy says, "Are ya stupid? Now we're both down here." The friend says, "Yeah, but I've been down here before and I know the way out."
Quote 2
Man 1: "Okay, Mr. xxxxxxxxx. I say this with all possible respect, but each of these knives cuts, you know, meat. Why is it important?"
MAN 2: "'Cause it is something we pass on. It's something with a history, so we can say, "My father gave this to me, and his father gave it to him, and now I'm giving it to you."
MAN 1: "Well, OK, sir. But if that's true then why don't you already have one?"
MAN 2: "I do have one."
MAN 1:" Why do you need a new one?"
MAN 2: "I'm giving mine away."
MAN 1: "To who?"
MAN 2: "Whom."
MAN 1: "To whom?"
MAN 2: "Funny you should ask." [Reaches into his desk and takes out a case] "XXXXXX, my father gave this to me, and his father gave it to him, and now I'm giving it to you." [Hands him the box] " Take a look."
MAN 1: [Opens the box]
MAN 2: "The fully tapered bolster allows for sharpening the entire edge of the blade." MAN 1: "It says "PR" I thought I knew them all but I don't recognize the manufacturer." MAN 2: "This was made for my family by a Boston silversmith named Paul Revere. I'm proud of you, XXXXXXX." MAN 1: [overwhelmed] "Thank you, sir."

Well alrighty then, try #5
President: I came to this hallowed chamber one year ago on a mission, to restore the American dream for all our people as we gaze at the vast horizon of possibilities open to us... in the 321st century. Wow, that was ambitious of me, wasn't it?
Man 1: Let's take a break.
President: We meant stronger here right?
Man 2: What's it say?
President: I'm proud to report our country's stranger than it was a year ago.
Man 1: That's a typo.
President: Could go either way.
Woman: What are you taking?
President: I don't know. My wife hands me pills, I swallow them with water.
Man 1: Sir?
President: Vitamin C, Vitamin B. Is it possible I'm taking something called euthanasia?
Man 1: Echinacea?
President: Ah, that sounds more like it.
Any guesses?

I loved The West Wing, but I sure didn't recognize the quotes! Now that I know where they're from, though, I can absolutely hear them being said!

The West Wing was one of my favorite shows, but when I went to pick quotes and eliminated anything that clearly gave it away as a Presidential speech, or hit upon any sort of controversial topic, it suddenly got hard to recognize!
