A weekly feature highlighting the best quotes on TV this past week.
Almost Human: 'Arrhythmia'; 16th December; Michael Ealy/Karl Urban
Darth Locke: Dorian: "He's grumpy on the outside, and morose and malcontent on the inside."
Dorian: "When I was decommissioned, the second before it happened I just kept thinking 'I really hope there's someone there to wake me up again.' I just want to be a cop, man. I just want to be here. And then you woke me up. It was you. You were that person for me, John." John: "Well, we all make mistakes." Dorian: "I want to be that person for him."
Homeland: 'The Star'; 15th December; Damian Lewis/Mandy Patinkin
DarkUFO: Brody: "I never expected to get this far"
Saul: "When it's over it's over. Pull down the shades and go home."
How I Met Your Mother: 'Bass Player Wanted'; 16th December; Cristin Milioti
Babar Suhail: The Mother: "There are real villains in this world. But they don't always get real justice, do they? You want to believe karma's gonna get them. But karma doesn't always come through. I guess you have to accept that sometimes in life you just don't get that knockout punch."
NCIS: 'Homesick'; 17th December; Michael Weatherly/Mark Harmon
Bradley Adams: Tony: "OK Mr. Scrooge. Not that you're stingy or cheap in any way. I was just.. because of the.. Christmas.. This is a relief, good job everybody."
Tony: "Leroy Ebenezer Gibbs, did we just agree on something?" Gibbs: "Hey, Bob Cratchit, find Patient Zero." Tony: "And a playful movie reference, it really is starting to feel like Christmas."
Nikita: 'Bubble'; 20th December; Maggie Q
Bradley Adams: Nikita: "It's me. I know you're not alone right now but I really need to talk. I'm supposed to let it go but I can't. They don't get to win, not like this. When we came here, I thought it was finally over. No more running and hiding and lying. I really believed that the truth was going to free us. But now I'm trapped in an even bigger lie. The world doesn't know that Amanda is alive but I do, because Ryan believed in the truth. He died for the truth and I can't let that be for nothing. Going after her means breaking some promises I made but I don't see any other way. I can't trust the system, not with this. It's failed me, all of us, too many times. Jones and his cronies, they need to pay. I want them to die with the whole world watching so everyone knows who they really are and what they've done. Taking them on, I can't do it alone. I know it's asking a lot but I need you. I need your help, one last time. We started this fight together, just you and me. A lot has happened since then, but I know this is how it's supposed to end. It's time to finish what we started." Perhaps Nikita should take up inspirational speaking. This was a brilliant speech, and just set the tone for the final episode next week.
Once Upon A Time: 'Going Home'; 15th December; Lana Parrilla, Jared Gilmore/Colin O'Donoghue
Darth Locke: Regina: "I cast a curse out of vengeance and I'm a villain. You heard Mr. Gold, villains don't get happy endings." Henry: "You're not a villain. You're my Mom."
Hook: "Not a day will go by that I won't think of you."
Person of Interest: 'Lethe'; 17th December; Camryn Manheim/Jim Caviezel, Kevin Chapman/Michael Emerson/Chris Bert/Saul Rubinek
Bradley Adams: Diane Claypool/Ma'am/Control: "One of you is gonna tell me what it is I want to know. And whoever does will be the one who gets to leave here. Alive." What an unbelievably fantastic cliffhanger to leave the episode on.
DarkUFO: Reese: "How'd you find me?" Fusco: "What do you think, I won my detective shield in a poker game? All right, Glasses helped a little."
Finch: "Miss Shaw, I am sure there are ways to get to Claypool that do not involve any kind of combustion."
Darth Locke: Teenage Harold: "If they don't want you to get inside, they ought to build it better." This quote was also picked by Sharon Seymour
Arthur: "The truth fears no questions."

Great work as always Bradley. POI has so many great lines!
ReplyDeleteYou can tell when there's no POI that this article is considerably shorter. Since half of the team who usually submit picks watch POI, we usually end up with loads. They are brilliant though.
ReplyDeletePOI always has great quotes, from Finch and Fusco especially, I also like the ones from Almost Human.
ReplyDeleteThe Nikita quote was the best, definitely the best of the series. Do I dare say it was epic?
ReplyDeleteLoved the Almost Human and POI quotes too.
Nikita's "speech" to Alex was very intense. Can't wait to see what happen next week for the series finale.
ReplyDeleteOnce Upon a Time!
ReplyDeleteNikita. Because team Alex/Nikita vs. the world is back. Enough said.
ReplyDeleteOUAT - Hook's line, I'm a romantic at heart.
