A weekly feature highlighting the best quotes on TV this past week.
American Horror Story: 'Head'; 11th December; Michael Cristofer/Kathy Bates/Josh Hamilton/Frances Conroy
DarkUFO: Hank's father: "No mercy! Never forget what they are!"
Delphine: "Yeah! I kept my eyes shut tight the entire time, vile negress!"
Sharon Seymour: Hank: "I'm part of a sacred order, a soldier in a shadow war, a war that’s been raging since before the time of Salem; we are a brotherhood pledged in blood, dedicated to stamping out the pestilence of witchery on the North American continent"
Myrtle: "I had a Turkish Angora cat who was born with one brown eye and one blue; she was absolutely gorgeous."
Arrow: 'Three Ghosts'; 11th December; Manu Bennett/Colin Donnell/Stephen Amell, Colton Haynes, Bex Taylor-Klaus
Bradley Adams: Slade: "I know exactly who he is. He's my friend." Blood: "That's why you don't want him dead." Slade: "Death would be a release from this life, and his sentence is yet to be carried out. I am going to tear everything he cares about away from him. Destroy those who choose to follow him. Corrupt those he loves. Once he has lost everyone, and everything he values, I will drive an arrow through his eye." What a way to show us that Slade is now against Oliver. This was an epic monologue.
A Dahne: Tommy: "Get up Oliver (echoes)." Oliver: "Tommy?" Tommy: "You're not gonna die down here." Oliver: "Tommy I'm sorry. I let you die." Tommy: "You didn't let me die Ollie. You fought to save me. Because that's what you do, what you have always done - you fight to survive. I know I called you a murderer but you are not, you are a hero. You beat the island. You beat my father. So fight, Oliver. Get up, and fight back." Out of everything I loved in TV this week, this was my favorite. He reassures Oliver that he is a hero and gives him the will to defeat Super Soldier. I hope Ghost Tommy returns.
Oliver: "Roy, this is going to hurt." Roy: "My anger's dulling the pain." Sin (handing him tequila): "This will dull it better." Sin has been a real asset this season. I love how this line is delivered.
Grey's Anatomy: 'Get Up, Stand Up'; 12th December; Jesse Williams/Justin Chambers
Mark Ondo: Jackson: "I love you. I always have. I love everything about you - even the things I don't like, I love. And I want you with me. I love you and I think that you love me, too. Do you?"
Alex: "Who do you think took care of her, kept track of her, got her committed so she wouldn't hurt herself? Who do you think took care of your kids? If that was your best, then you should just hang it up. Your best is worthless. I WAS THE DAD! I was a kid but I was the dad! You were nothing, you were just.. gone. You're worthless!"
Homeland: 'Big Man in Tehran'; 8th December; Naz Deravian/Damian Lewis/Houshang Touzie
DarkUFO: Abu Nazir's Widow: "What do you want here?"
Brody: "I want to stop running."
Brody: "I killed him. Get me out of here."
Sharon Seymour: Akbari: "Thank you Nicholas. I will deal with Javadi."
Brody: "By the grace of God, I am here to seek asylum. This is the only place in the world where I can find peace."
NCIS: 'Devil's Triad'; 10th December; Melinda McGraw, Mark Harmon
Daniel van der Veer: Diane: "You guys are buddies now?" Gibbs: "Yeah. We were thinking of starting a club."
Scandal: 'A Door Marked Exit'; 12th December; Joshua Malina/Joe Morton
Mark Ondo: David: "I put parts of my body inside parts of your body and I'm very generous when you ask me to."
Rowan: "You're funny. A funny, funny man. Or should I say boy? You're a boy. You've been coddled and cared for, pampered and hugged. For you it's always summertime and the living's easy. Daddy's rich and your mama's good looking! You're a Grant! You've got money in your blood. You. Are. A. Boy."
Sleepy Hollow: 'The Golem'; 9th December; Tom Mison, John Noble/Amandia Stenberg, Orlando Jones
A Dahne: Ichabod: "What hellish form of torment is this?" Henry: "Fun house mirrors." Ichabod: "When did irony become a national past time?" Tom Mison always nails the fish out of water moments and this one made me laugh in the middle of a high action scene.
Macey: "YouTube videos are like 3 minutes long. No one has time for that." Irving: "Yeah, I'm having a dad moment. Thanks." Iriving wasn't the only one feeling old here. Like Macey as a character so far and her interactions with Irving.
Sons of Anarchy: 'A Mother's Work'; 10th December; Charlie Hunnam
Max Conte: Jax: "Save our boys, please."
The Goldbergs: 'Kara-te'; 10th December; Wendi McLendon-Covey, Jeff Garlin/Tim Meadows
A Dahne: Beverly: "Murray, isn't this a wonderful idea?" Murray: "If I say yes, can I be out of the conversation?" Bwah! I am going to use this the next time I am just smiling and nodding.
Beverly: "The nerds can wait. My son, Barry Goldberg cannot." Teacher: "Are you…Beverly Goldberg?" Beverly: "Oh yes I am." Yikes, last thing anyone wants is for Beverly to come after them. I felt really bad for this teacher but it was comedy gold.
The Vampire Diaries: 'Fifty Shades of Grayson'; 12th Decembre; Nina Dobrev
Mark Ondo: Katherine: "Did you memorize that from The Textbook or something?"
