Quote of the Week - Week of April 15





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 in the comments below.




The Americans -
1. Oleg: “One thing I did learn here: they are not crazy. We can make peace with them. Now may be the best chance we can ever get. That's why I am here.” (DarkUFO)
2. Elizabeth: “He loves me, he loves you, but somewhere...something got lost. This work can get to be too much for people. Even the best ones. I'm so proud of you, Paige. Really proud.” (DarkUFO)



Bull -
1. Bull: “Helping this woman will not change the fact that I did nothing to help my own sister.” Marissa: “It’s true. You failed at being God. You are responsible for everyone and everything.” Bull: “Just indulge me. Let me wallow in my own self-pity.” Marissa: “You know what, Jason? Your sister was an adult. She made her own decisions, her own choices about who to be with, and nothing you could have done would have changed that. You loved her and that is really your only obligation as a brother. As for our client, you can only do what you can do. She’s giving you very little to work with. Get some sleep. Tomorrow is gonna come whether we’re ready for it or not.”
2. Bull: “This thing’s gonna go one of two ways. Either it’s all been one big, bad dream and you’re about to become a free woman, in which case I’m gonna take you for a walk because walking is very good for pregnant women. You know, my sister taught me that. Or...if for some reason things don’t...go our way in there...well, you’re not rid of me ‘cause we’re just gonna appeal the living daylights out of this thing. I mean you are gonna be so sick of me.” Kate: “Not possible.” Bull: “You’ll see. I’m very unusual. I’m actually an acquired dislike.”
3. Benny: “Like I said, I’m your guy, but I need you to know that I don’t have a lot to work with and I just don’t want to let you down.”



Criminal Minds -
1. JJ: “Your rational is telling you that and that part’s right. I also know there is a part of you that you don’t show anyone, and that part of you is trying to figure out why did Spencer Reid get out of his prison. You know, when Quinn didn’t. The answer is family, this family, how we fought to get you out of there. The same way we fought to save Prentiss from Mr. Scratch. We fought to save this team from getting shut down. And now, family will help us figure out what we’re missing.”
2. Tara: “Typical cult. You know you think it’s a cast of thousands, when really it’s just 4 wackos sitting around in the dark.”
3. Garcia: “He bought a warehouse on the edge of the district. Not the kind of place I’d go to church, but ideal if human sacrifice is your thing.”

I know you want this to be all simple and clear, but it isn't. That's not the world I live in. It's ugly and messy and full of terrible choices, and I made some that I wish you could understand, but just looking at you I can tell you can't.” (Luana)

LA to Vegas -
1. Ronnie: “I’m just trying to put my best foot forward.” Bernard: “Honey I get it, but this ain’t your foot. A linguine tour? That’s not you. I mean, look, this whole list is written on an old Taco Bell receipt. A 10:00 am Taco Bell receipt.” Ronnie: “They serve breakfast now, Bernard.”
2. Artem: “You can’t spell party without Arty.”
3. Ronnie: “Jackpot’s official position is ‘You do you. We’ve seen worse.’ “
