Quote of the Week - Week of Dec. 21






A weekly feature highlighting the best quotes on TV as picked by the Spoiler TV team. We'd love to hear your picks too so please sound off below the article. Sorry this is a bit late. My computer is down so I had to make due.  Also there weren't too many original shows last week, so there's not much variety.  Here's to the end of hiatus.



Benched –

1. Phil: Did you really cry in a car commercial?" Nina: You know what? Everyone hugged, even the Wheaton terrier." Phil: "Well that is a very lovable breed." (Dahne)
2. Nina: "She's a divorcĂ©e with no standards. I told her that you were like the hit it and quit it, one and done, woof it and hoof it, love 'em and leave 'em, lick it, stick it, leave before you get a ticket, kind of guy. She was all about it." (Dahne)
3. Judge: "It's an emotional rollercoaster huh? It's like a season pass to Tragic Mountain." (Dahne)
4. Carlos: “No one’s going to laugh, Phil. Did they laugh at Susan B. Anthony? Did they laugh at Rosa Parks?” Phil: “In what universe is this the same as either of those?” Carlos: “Did they laugh at the ladies from 9 to 5?” Phil: “Yes, it was a very popular comedy film.” (Dahne)
5. Micah: “Wild weekend?” Nina: “What? No, no, I stayed in. I stayed in and I uh, watched some TV. Got caught up on my old DVR. I cyberstalked a few people from high school so they’re doing well.” Micah: “I was being sarcastic.” (Dahne)
6. Nina: "What did you think of Francine?" Phil: "What, like a number?" Nina: "Yeah or words like an adult." (Dahne)
7. Harold: “You’re a person, you know, and then you’re just so many objects on the sidewalk.” (Dahne)
8. Phil: “Uh, do you need any help?” Nina: “Oh no, no, no. I mean there’s probably still time. You can go find a rando. You guys could find some secret tequila bar inside of a post office or whatever cool guy thing you do on a Saturday night.” Phil: “Well you know it’s not going to be cool if dorks like you know about it.” (Dahne)
9. Carlos: "Micah, what does she mean overruled?" Micah: "I think she's means, didn't I get you a sex tie." (Dahne)
10. Nina: "Wow, I don't know what's more surprising, the fact you didn't strip her or that you know what Malbec is." (Dahne)
11. Phil: “So it seems that the key to this case is just don’t be you.” (Dahne)

9. Shona "What are you doing here?" Santa "It's the North Pole. And I own it." Ian "He means the actual pole." Wolf "It goes right through the middle of the workshop." Ian "I've got a selfie with it!" Santa "Show her. Look at Ian!" Shona "The North Pole isn't an actual pole." Ian "Of course it is. Look!" Shona "If it was an actual pole, it would not be stripy." Wolf "It's got to be stripy!" Ian "Otherwise, you couldn't see it moving round." Wolf "It's actually, basic physics." (Sandi)
