A weekly feature highlighting the best quotes on TV this past week.
American Horror Story: 'Protect the Coven'; 15th January; Jessica Lange/Frances Conroy/Michael Cristofer
DarkUFO: Fiona: "Here's my other offer. You can all just die." This quote was also picked by Sharon Seymour
Myrtle: "Madison, you are the worst kind of Hollywood cliche. You are a bubblehead with crotchless panties."
Sharon Seymour: Madison: "Welcome to the revolution, Carrot Top. As the next Supreme, I'm gonna drag this Coven out of the Dark Ages."
Arrow: 'Blast Radius'; 15th January; Susanna Thompson, Stephen Amell/Paul Blackthorne
Bradley Adams: Moira: "You've taken Oliver's...hobby, and turned it into a successful business." Oliver: "Hobby?"
Quentin: “Maybe because Aunt Maya is nuttier than a Snickers bar.”
Banshee: 'The Thunder Man'; 17th January; Odette Annable
Sharon Seymour: Soldier: "Who the fuck are you?" Nola: "I'd tell you but you won't remember anyway." (Then she knocks him unconscious)
Castle: 'Deep Cover'; 13th January; Nathan Fillon
Ann-Sophie Hamel: Castle: "I keep making the mistake of thinking he's family but he's not. You are. September. We're getting married in September. It won't be too hot it won't be too cold. It's in the Goldilocks zone, it's perfect."
Person of Interest: '4C'; 14th January; Samm Levine/Jim Caviezel/Sarah Shahi/Michael Emerson
Bradley Adams: Owen: "You seem like an angry guy. Do you wanna talk about that? I feel like you wanna talk about that." Owen had some of the best lines this week.
Reese: "You computer guys, you build something you can't control. And when it backfires, you won't accept responsibility. Have you really made anything better? Does it look like you've stopped the violence?" Person of Interest seems to like the double conversation thing recently. Speaking to someone while aiming it at the person on the phone. Very cool.
DarkUFO: Shaw: "I always liked you Hersh. Even after you killed me."
Owen: "Whoa! What's with the conspiracy theories, Mr. Dark and Stormy?"
Jimmy Ryan: Finch: "Mr Reese, I understand your frustration with the opacity of The Machine but there's a reason I chose to make it that way. The Machine only gives us numbers because I would rather that a human element remain in determining something so critical as someone's fate. We have free will, and with that comes great responsibility, and sometimes great loss. I miss her dearly too."
Sharon Seymour: Owen: "Your hair looks fine. That salt and pepper thing is like catnip to soccer moms."
Owen: "I thought you got rid of that walking steroid?"
Revenge: 'Endurance'; 12th January; Emily VanCamp/Joshua Bowman, Nick Wechsler/Gabriel Mann
Ann-Sophie Hamel: Emily: "Hate is a lot like love. You can't force it, you can't fight it. You just have to embrace it when it comes along."
Virginia Fontana: Daniel: "You think you know everything, don't you?" Jack: "Yeah, I do. Now pick yourself up and get the hell out of my bar."
Nolan: "Save it. I've already got four episodes of 'Patrick Says I'm Sorry' saved on my DVR."
Revolution: 'Mis Dos Padres'; 15th January; Billy Burke/David Lyons
Bradley Adams: Miles: "You're a dick." The Miles/Monroe interactions are fantastic. Very funny and enjoyable to watch.
Virginia Fontana: Monroe: "Wow, your boss has really nice taste. It’s like Donald Trump threw up on Scarface."
Monroe: "What was I supposed to do? He’s my son." Miles: "Oh shut up, you've been his Dad for five minutes, and all of sudden you’re Cliff Huxtable?"

I have to go with Shaw:
ReplyDelete"Made a list, checked it twice. Who's naughty? Who's nice? And you definitely haven't played nice."
Just the way she said it made it memorable.
Same as Andy and Sharon with the AHS line!
ReplyDeleteHmm, some good ones from the team( Especially Reese about Hersh), but...
ReplyDeleteI'd go with Tyrion Lannister in the Game of Thrones trailer.
"If you want justice, you've come to the wrong place."
Nolan's "DVR" line on Revenge. Because that storyline *is* going around in circles - at least the writers acknowledged it. :-)
ReplyDelete"Salt." Maybe you had to see the scene, but Monroe asks Rosalee's mother what she adds to the green beans to give them that special flavor. "Salt" is sister Deetra's dismissive answer.
ReplyDeleteI also loved the Castle and Person of Interest quotes. Great episodes!
ReplyDeleteLoved the Castle, POI, Revolution & Revenge quotes mentioned. Also,
ReplyDeleteCastle:
1) Martha: A little unsolicited advice.
Castle: Do you give another kind?
2) Lanie: You two creep me out when you do that shared brain thing.
Revolution:
Tom: This poker face is my face
And otherwise..
Girls:
1) Hannah: I don’t wanna do it and it’s really liberating to say no to shit you hate.
2) Adam: Really knowing someone is something else. It’s a completely different thing and when it happens you won’t be able to miss it. You will be aware. And you won’t hurt or be afraid
Sleepy Hollow:
1) Abbie: If you're going to keep wearing that damn thing, I have two words for you. Dry cleaning.
Ichabod: Pick two words I'd understand.
2) Abbie: The place is booby trapped.
Ichabod: Sounds unpleasant.
3) Ichabod: One sign of the impending Apocalypse is surely skinny jeans.
Originals:
1) Elijah: Can I suggest you take a step back (Just the way he said it! <3)
2) Klaus: he stench of your judgment is overwhelming
3) Klaus: Don't worry, Elijah. I remain as redeemable as ever
4) Elijah: I recognize that tone of voice, Klaus. Clearly you have some diabolical machination. What is it?
5) Rebekah: Used by the witches, lied to by Marcel, manipulated by Elijah, threatened by Klaus. She's like a modern day casket girl.
SHIELD:
1) Coulson: he world is full of evil, lies, pain, and death and you can’t hide from it. You can only face it. The question is when you do, how do you respond, who do you become
White Collar:
1) Neal: Always the con man, never the con!
Oh and of course the Game of Thrones trailer which ive seen numerous times! Everything in it is 'quote of the week' for me!
ReplyDeleteGirls:
ReplyDeleteNatalia's friend looking at Hannah: Did you leave in a rush?
Lost Girl:
Munin: Pleasant. Like being eaten by dogs or having your knuckles rapped by a nun for horsin' about in class. That king of pleasant.
The Originals:
Josh Rosza: Guess what. I just moved to Turkey. Weirdly, they don't eat turkey here. Go figure.
Being Human:
Nora: Some people go to Italy for their honeymoon. I bait my husband with a goat.
It's the only show Ii know of where the trailers go up on the download and torrent sites!
ReplyDeleteOccasionally long awaited blockbuster action movie trailers go up, but no TV shows other than Game of Thrones I can think of!
And nothing about Community ? :'(
ReplyDeleteThe Person of Interest quotes this week for me.
