Think you know your Christmas TV specials ?

                             You've watched them for decades, from the time you were waiting for Santa to the day you began playing Santa's helper.
                             You've quoted, ad nauseam, Ralphie's mom ("You'll shoot your eye out!"), good ol' Charlie Brown ("Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?"), The Grinch ("I must stop Christmas from coming!") and George Bailey's daughter Zuzu ("Every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings.").
                             They're the Christmas TV and movie classics we just can't seem to get enough of during each holiday season.  You think you know practically everything there is to know about who said what and more?  Prove it.
