Knave: "So tell me Edward, have you ever eaten something that's tried to kill you before?" Edward: "No well, I don't believe I have." Knave: "It's sort of a Wonderland rite of passage." BWAH! Funniest line of the week.
Alice: "What's that chirping?" Knave: "I'm no wildlife expert but my rough guess is a bird." Ha again!
Scandal: 'YOLO'; 5th December; Katie Lowes, George Newbern

Sharon Seymour: The Governor: "Michonne, I want you to know... Penny, my daughter, she was dead. I know that know. Now, I don't want to hurt you. I don't want to hurt anyone. I need the prison, that's it. There are people I need to keep alive. You two are gonna help me take it. No one needs to die."
White Collar: 'Quantico Closure'; 5th December; Willie Garson/Tim DeKay, Matt Bomer
A Dahne: Best dialogue this week hands down.
Mozzie: "You, business, and women - the unholy trinity." I love how true the statement is and the delivery was perfect.
Peter: "Dec. 7th." Neal: "Pearl Harbor Day?" Peter: "Another day that will live in infamy - first time I arrested you." Neal: "And four years later, we did it all over again, but this time you gave me jewelry." Ah the anklet. I'm not sure who is more looking forward to it coming off...Neal or me. Like the Peter and Neal conversations in this episode.

Elementary: Sherlock:"The danger with rulebooks, Watson, is that they offer the illusion that leading a moral life is a simple undertaking. That the world exists in black and white. Welcome to the grays."
ReplyDeleteI'll concur with Rick's speech being the best quote. It made Hershel smile.
ReplyDeleteHershel (The Walking Dead): ''Governor...'' I don't know why, but I like that Hershel was decent enough to still call him that. Rick's speech was pretty great too! It's been a while since the show has done a really emotional scene, but that was one.
ReplyDeleteAnd from Masters Of Sex, Margaret talking with that woman at the bar about her husband...
''He's queer.'' ''It's very queer, yes. Thank you.'' ''No, sweetheart. He's a homosexual. Your husband likes boys.'' And they just start laughing because it's so ridiculous, and then the next scene shows Margaret crying on her bed and it's just all so very tragically sad. Great show.
SO MANY fun quotes this week!
ReplyDeleteThe Originals was excellent. The quotes mentioned above and..
1) Elijah: You don't make it easy to love you, brother.
Klaus: And yet you are obstinate in your desire to do so
2) Rebekah: Come on, Elijah. You've fallen for her. Admit it. It may do wonders for the stick that's lodged up your endearingly stoic ass if you did
3) Hayley: And let's not forget Josh, newbie vampire way out of his element voted most likely to die next
4) Klaus: And for the record the level of awkwardness we're all currently experiencing is entirely genuine
5) Cami: Don't worry. He's compelled me to forget everything as soon as I leave. That way I'm too busy agonizing over whether or not I'm losing my damn mind to realize I'm playing spy for an immortal egomaniac
Scandal:
1) Abby: Normal boyfriends do favors for their girlfriends.
David: Normal girlfriends don't dabble in aiding and abetting
2) Mellie: t hurts until it doesn't. You think it's going to break you, but it won't. You may not sleep as well at night, but you will be fine. Numb, but numb and fine are the same
TVD:
1) Damon: Listen, how I got this amazing body has nothing to do with science
2) Katherine: That's why I need you not to get mad at me. Because when you get mad, you get anxious and violent and you rip people's head's off. But I'm gonna help you fix that
Elementary..what's mentioned above and
1)Sherlock: That’s the beauty of the internet. 24-7 hours access from everything to twerking kittens to criminal records
The Big Bang Theory:
1) Penny: Bark once if you need me to call PETA
2) Raj: There's also a time to stop eating too many jelly beans. And it's when you're ten
3) Bernadette: We were totally fine half-assing our marriage till you showed up
OUAT:
1) Regina: I did cast a curse that devastated an entire population. I have tortured and murdered. I've done some terrible things. I should be overflowing with regret but I'm not. Because it got me my son
2) Well it looks like getting rid of a baby just made my to-do list
Also loved with the White Collar and Homeland quotes.
"Cyrus, I've commited a sin" - Sally Langston, Scandal
ReplyDelete"What's that stupid thing that kids are saying? YOLO? YOLO, Quinn" - Huck, Scandal
"Oh little bird, I've been buying in bulk from North Korea for yeaaaarsss" - Myrtle Snow, American Horror Story: Coven "The Sacred Taking"
and I don't know it word for word but Rick's speech in The Walking Dead was great.
Oh The Mentalist... Oh feels...........
ReplyDeleteThe Mentalist: Patrick Jane:"Turns out being understood is an underrated pleasure."
ReplyDeleteThe Mentalist
ReplyDeleteJane: "Oh, I missed you."
Lisbon: "I missed you too."
(that hug... oh my!!!)
haha The Almost Human quote was funny. I also liked a couple of the more serious quotes - John saying in the car he would believe in his friend until proven otherwise, and Dorian calling John his friend.
ReplyDeleteI really liked Rick's quote to the people with the Governor. Wish I'd wrote it down. The other quotes were great too.
I also liked the Elementary, Wonderland, Originals, and The Mentalist quotes.
Rick: I have sick people here
ReplyDeleteGovernos: And i have a tank.
Sth like that.
The best bit of dialogue in White Collar this week came when Mozzie and Elizabeth were discussing trust, and Mozzie said that people can almost never be trusted. Elizabeth pointed out that Mozzie trusts Neal, to which Mozzie replied that Neal is the reason that he prefaced the word NEVER with "almost."
ReplyDeleteThat was a great scene. I always like when Mozzie and El are working together.
ReplyDeleteSupernatural: Castiel: Cas is back in town!Dean: Seriously did you just... did he just say that?
ReplyDeleteand : Sam: They were a born-again biker gang.
Dean: Well that is not something you hear everyday!
Sam: No it is not.
For The Walking Dead, I believe that this one quote sums up the entire show (the premise of surviving the zombie apocalypse):
ReplyDelete"Don't look back, Carl. Just keep walking."
A weak quote from Jane. Hee he waited 2 years? For a simple sentence? Bad writingggggg.
