Greys 11.18

And here I was scared Greys forgot they have an upper floor. Bailey crossed the lins asking the mother for her son’s organs for the kid that shot him. Derek’s speech at the end and a personally painful voiceover. When did it stop being enough? For me it never was.

Feels good, doesn’t it? Knowing what you want to do next.
We are runners. Something scares us, we spring.
If it’s not working, fix it.
I don’t need to save the world.
When did that stop being enough?
Wouldn’t be love if it didn’t.

7/10

SVU 16.18

Hudson University, an elite school for rape and sexual assault. Ally Ionnides stars in a case that is not at all what it seems (is it ever?).

Noah, just to be clear, you are not going to Hudson University.
When’s the last time a carjacking victim was asked, are you sure you didn’t want your car stolen?
We are all Jane.
I am the real Jane.
One of the guys threw my panties at me.
Nobody raped this girl.
She want to play whore on Saturday and a saint on Sunday.
Who else want to rape that?
Did she just say 6 men?
I’m the dace of the movement.
They probably all took a piece of me.
This is about eliminating rape culture.
I could have been gang raped.
I have to go to school every day and see my rapist?
You have a dangerous predator on your campus.
It set the clock back 30 years.

10/10

Shameless 5.11

Sammi was accidentaly killed, then she came alive.

For bankrobbery or a driveby.
Sex i the first thing to you know sex.
For me part of feeling alive is being alive.
Ah fuck she’s dead.
Too late for that.
He was released in the care of Monica Gallagher.
Help! Help!

6/10

Cougar Town 6.13

A beautiful finale, they all stayed at the cul-de-sac and were meeting at Jules’ house every day till the rest of their lives. An uplifting finale, as it should be. They continue to do crazy things and they’re all okay and that keeps me from falling apart.

The wife made it to the end of the lawn.
He was here when I got here.
If Travis and Laurie bought it.
You’re gonna kill us someday.
We could finally be a couple.
Give me Big Chuck.
Who moves at night?
You’re my best friend.
Does everyone have to leave this second?
Why is everyone leaving me?
We are so lucky.

10/10

Revenge 4.18

Oh how weak is Revenge this season, and sadly, we all know it’s going to be thia show’s last, and It aches me that I’m going to have to find a replacement in September, as I used to love this show so much. I expected so much more. It was a fun ride, Revenge, up to season 4. Charlotte will be back in a few episodes, I hope they’ll find her a place other than being a bitchy junkie. He should not have lost that baby. Any storyline is better than what she has.

‘I am David Clarke’s daughter. I am Amanda Clarke.’ I expected more than a random admission at an even more random party.

5/10

Nashville 3.18

All the songs. The aings are always my favorite part of the show. I hope it escapes death again. All we all knew Sadie was going to kill her ex husband the minute she bought the gun.

I’m a broken guitar, working on a broken song.
I can be hurricane driving through misery.
Have you ever been in love? Then you shouldn’t write about it.
If you need anything, just give me a look.
Don’t tell me I can’t sing this song. This is my time. This is my song.
He can be an axe murderer.
Except he’s a doctor.
You might understand something I’m going through.
Yeah I might.
Are you guys together? Like together together?
Sadie! What happened?

7.5/10

Bates Motel 3.01

And we’re back with Norma and Norman and their incest-like relationship. Calling your mom ‘silly woman’ and sleeping in the same bed underlines the creepy incesty vibe the show gives. Also, Norman is back to killing.

Norman is 18. He should  not be sleeping in the same bed as his mom.
Looks like your mom and you are pretty close.
Yes we are.
I think you should go to your own bed.
There was no place left for us. Except with each other.
It’s not normal.
I may be growing up, but I am not going anywhere.
Move over, silly woman.

7/10

Bates Motel 3.02

Norma knows its her son who’s killing ‘questionable’ women. I mean why else woukd he get into the car with that woman? Emma has gotten too forward after that summer fling.

You can’t keep getting into cars with questionable women! Slutty, oversexed, crazy.
I don’t know how long I can keep doung this, Norman.
Doing what?
Are you planting tomatoes?
Yeah and corn. And green beans.
I always felt safe when you were here.
Norman was the last person who saw her.
Of course on purpose. Do you think I bump into signs not on purpose?

7/10

Bates Motel 3.03

I’m pretty sure Norman is the biggest weirdo in town, Norma. Norman’s obsession with his mother gets creepier as he says he feels he’s ‘outside’ of her, as opposed to the ‘inside’ he wants to be in. The show is gonna end with Norman raping Norma and killing hr afterwards just like his victims.

I haven’t been in school in 20 years, I’m probably gonna look like everyone’s mother.
Maybe for spending so many years close to my mother.
Have you interviewed all the weirdos in this town?
Secret club of the damaged.
I just feel like I’m outside of her.
What game are you playing today, mother?

6/10

Bates Motel 3.04

Dylan and Norma’s relationship is so much more enjoyable than Norma and Norman’s. Norma’s brother loved his little sister so much that when she wanted to end their weird bond, he raped her. Norma gets jeleous another relationship of her son’s and forbids him to have sex with Emma. And Norman, the creepiest character on TV, desperately wants to make his mom jeleaous kissing Emma and making sure Norma watches.

Dylan, good you’re here. He’s very upset. Take him to the house.
You can’t sleep with her.
My mother says I shouldn’t have sex with you.
She was more than my sister. I loved her more than anything. And I couldn’t let her go.
You betrayed mother and she needs to know. (Full on Psycho)

Bones 10.12

First of, one more cave man following you? Brennan gets a twitter and lightens up the episode, now who killed… Lucas from PLL. Congrats Bones, I actually remembered. You didn’t suck this week.

Twitter gives fans a chance to onnect with you till the next book comes out.
It’s abandoned.
That doesn’t help my argument.
Oh my god.
What you got bit?
My book. It’s in the cleareance section.
I’m totally gonna follow you.
Mole matching program.
I did start folowing Dr B on twitter.
He’s 18, his frontal lobe isn’t fully developed yet, so his judgement cannot be trusted.
It’s probably just the squints following you.
You’re posting articules on bone diseases and cave men.
What you’ve got another cave man following you?
Because in high school I was shoved into locker multiple times.
This locker is smired with blood.
Why are you tweeting and not working my case?
The victim had a twitter account. (Duh)
We’re looking for someone who has a car with no trunk.
Smiley face, wink wink.

10/10

Castle 7.18

Still waiting for Castle to surprise me, to have a case that’s going to sweep me of my feet. For Alexis to have an interesting storyline, not just asking friends over to play with Castle’s toys. I want to hear about hr vlog again. Her character needs some depth, they all do. Carlos from Desperte Housewives guest stars in the first role I’ve seen him since Mr Solis. And Kate wants to take the Captain’s exam. Does this mean they plan to write Gates off by the end of this season?

Is it One Direction?
No, they’re in Hong Kong. (How manly of you to know that Espo)
Captain’s exam.

2.5/10

Castle 7.19

The only thing I remember is that Ryan and Espo challenged Castle and Kate and performed to the most annoying song. No idea what the case was.

2/10

The Good Wife 6.15

One of the boring episodes before Alicia’s win. Can’t their have their emails hacked already?

You don’t want me to win.
Alicia’s defeat could be a major embarrasment.

5.5/10

The Good Wife 6.16

Dennis O’Hare is back and he just cannot swallow the fact that the printed gun cost 25 dollars.

Is anyone else disturbed by…
The one that your wife is not suing.
I just can’t believe 25 dollars.
Who’s your attorney?
David Lee.
Actually I am.
Yes maybe he can find another way for associating with killing Jews.
To trash Peter!
What’s this?
I don’t know it’s too far for me to read it.
Are you sending money to Palestinians?

10/10

The Good Wife 6.17

Somebody hacked into your system.
You performed oral sex on Limond in a supply closet?
Like removing stick from my ass.
What world are you living on?
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
Eli! Stop saying that.
Never apologise beforehand.
Whatever you wanna do, no.

10/10

Scandal 4.18

Every time they mention wearing white hats, I’m happy. Any time they talk about B613 and Liv’s dad, I’m angry. I don’t think Mellie will win. But she’s still my second favirite character after Abby.

Drug store. Tampon run.
We are the white hats, we’re the good guys.
The good guys lose. And the white hats burn.
She’s family, Rosen.

5.5/10

Younger 1.01

Great pilot. Good to see Hilary Duff back on TV, and Sutton Foster too. The pulot made me think of Bunheads, and I got upset. Then, Gilmore Girls and Lizzie McGuire nd I got all nostalgic.

Eat, pray and chronic diarrhoea.
Who inspires you?
Katniss Everdeen.
Favorite band?
One Direction.
As Taylor Swift said, there’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.
I’ve got your back, girl.
You’re gonna set a twitter account for Jane Austen.
Dead Jane Austen?
Are you deaf? Is that how you got into Darmouth?
Can I out your bush on Instagram?
Is that why your bush turned gray?
She lies about her age, how lame is that.
Hashtag pathetic.
We’re only in our 20s once.
I wanna come home.
Come home.

9.5/10

Secrets and Lies 1.05

I am only watching this for Kadee and I love how snarky Juliette’s character is.

Now the alleged evidence is missing like the flashlight.
To protect and serve. That’s the job.

4.5/10

Secrets and lies 1.06

You have a stalker.
You mean beside you?

A little off truck and the show is starting to get really boring.

I have decided to quit American Crime, as it hasn’t really won me over and I don’t really have time to follow shows I really don’t believe in. I’m gonna stick with Secrets and Lies, because I’ve seen the AU version and it has Kadee Strickland in it.

Greys 11.15

Greys do their own 911 episode. Not as good as SVU’s but still. Ed Sheeran’s best song – Photograph is used, and the use of Staying Alive was at least disturbing.

She hasn’t lost anyone since November.
Ruby, I’m Owen.
The ohine is beeping. I think it’s running out of battery.
I don’t wanna ask her to do this.
Hahahaha staying alive.
The nurse that had syph.
Ruby?
There was a gap. I was just too different.
89 surgeries with no miss.
What does that tell you? That I’m better off without him?

10/10

Greys 11.16

Hunt just saved this little girl’s life over the phone.
My short twisty mad voice.
He’s not cheating on you.
It’s time to deliver the baby.
Whatever is gonna happen, is gonna happen.
Meredith, what happened?
I’ll forget that I’m a murderer?
You’re a freaking novel romance.
He’s done it before. He met a girl. He met me and left Addison.
It’s not just my wife. Elis had Alzheimer too.
I have an Alzheimers predisposition.

7.5/10

Greys 11.17

Worst episode of Grey’s history.

I’d take it alart, piece by piece. But immediately, there’s always something
left.
Seriously weird, seriously misguided.
When he kissed me, we were exactly the same age. All those years between us disappeared. Somehow we’ve never run out of things to talk about.
I love my wife. I don’t want anything other than what I have with her.
You. You. You are my everything. I love you and I’m not gonna stop loving you. I can’t live without you and I’m gonna do everything in my power to prove it.

4/10

SVU 16.17

She made me do her.
I’m thinkibg your sister’s fiance might have been raped.
It was right. And it wasn’t your fault. And it’s not just gonna go away.
It was a man.
Seriously? How does that even work?
Do you think a man could respond like that under duress?
Actually, yes, we do.
What do you mean other services?
It’s like free sex. I should feel lucky. Right?
It’s like onion. You cry, it doesn’t mean you’re sad.
It’s a mechanical, chemical response.

5.5/10

Shameless 5.09

What’s it feel like to be crazy?
Strap it to Chucky.
Uncle Carl?
He was cleaning his gun and it back fired.
I’m not Monica anymore than you are.
I told you not to fuck up your life.
You can’t drink it away. It won’t go away.
He ran that way.
He’s 13. He’s a little small.
Don’t shoot, I’m white.
Don’t say anything!
I want a fucking lawyer, motherfucker.

10/10

Shameless 5.10

Chucky’s Manson tattoo.

Let’s be honest. Chucky was not destined for greatness.
Even if he’s functionaly retarded, he’s still doing time.
What’s the occasion?
You have got to be kidding me.
If I didn’t know him, I’d rhink he’s an upstanding citizen.
He’s gonna be running that joint.

5.5/10

Shameless 5.11

What the hell happened to Shameless!? The only good thing was when Sammi rat Ian out. Have Carl and Chucky left the show?

They’re ready to take him to jail now.
It’s a shame when someone you love is taken away, isn’t it?

1/10

Cougar Town 6.10

He’s practically screwing her at the table.
House privleges are revoked.

5.5/10

Cougar Town 6.11

That’s why Grayson sprays cleanser on everything you touch.
You wanna tell me a story, act it out with beautiful people while I’m eating popcorn.
This isn’t like the hamster hostage situation.
What’s my birthday?
I’ll try harder.
I lost some beautiful wine glasses.
I just can’t focus enough to read a book.
Jules!
I loved it!

5.5/10

Cougar Town 6.12

How do we live without the cul-de-sac crew and jokes like ‘Jelly Bean must be rushing to get the results of her latest STD test.’? Don’t go. I will always love you, Cougar Town. Thanks for being here for the last 5.5 years. You were oh so good.

I hate people.
Pipe down, chucklehead.
This may surprise you, but sometimes I give off a creepy vibe.
Eh. We’ll see.
Laurie and Ellie had a kissing contest.
Yeah, pipe down ass wipe.
I proably look like Sigourney Weaver in that alien film.
Jelly Bean must be rushing to get the results of her latest STD test.
What the hell do you guys do when I’m not around?

7/10

Revenge 4.15

By tomorrow morning the world will have a completley different idea of Emily Thorne.
Emily and I are like superheroes.
And bad to those who don’t.
Jack told me the gym was on the 8th floor.
I both broke and entered.
I’m sorry I didn’t see it sooner. How much we are alike.
Emotion and sincerity can be faked.
You have done and sacrificed so much for me Jack, but I can’t Jack. I’m sorry.

9/10

Revenge 4.16

The last couple of episodes make it so easy to say goodbye to the show.

Who are you?
The last person you wanna mess with.

1/10

Revenge 4.17

The last couple of episodes make it so easy to say goodbye to the show.

Emily flew me in last night. Or should I say Amanda?
Oh how kind of you, but get out.
It was an accident.
Whith you there are no accidents.
The baby is gone. Daniel is gone.
I tried to end it, but it was too late.
Then she pushed me.

5/10

Bones 10.11

I have missed it, but this episode reminded me why I haven’t really missed it. Another weak case. Can we go back to season 6 when this show made so much sense? And then, and then the last four minutes comes, and we hear that Lance has left Booth and Brennan a love-story version of the book he wrote on them five years ago. You tear up and forget that the case you’ve just watched is about a few lesbians, who might all have out another lesbian in a tree. And you hear Sweets’s dedication and agree with it completely. My life means so much more with you Bones, it’s just that you used to be so much better.

I don’t have tea party with God.
My three year old can complete a 100 piece puzzle, I wxpect the same from you.
Why hide a body in a tree?
Booth, the screen was cracked.
I minored in religion in college.
It’s the book he wrote for you.
My life means more, because I know you.

6/10

Castle 7.17

Speaking of long running shows disapointing, look at this one.

Like I should be doing something more.

1.5/10

The Good Wife 6.14

My pants get so sweaty, so i remove them.
Grace, can you pray for him, cause I don’t believe in Him.

The simpsons 26.17

Shut up biking Flanders.
Cat Deely says You’re america’s next… Someone has clearly messed up the shows.

Scandal 4.15

That fear quote.

This is just theatre.
Something horrible happe ed to you. You could use something good right now.
Sometimes fear keeps us safe, sometimes it holds us back.
There was a hole.

6/10

Scandal 4.16

Worst episode of Scandal, but Huck killed.

She would have talked.
She is not your client. Abby is. Abby’s family.

2.5/10

Scandal 4.17

Emily Bergl was Cyrus’s wife, and Kate Burton is back and she’s taking the loss of presidency pretty well, and lots of Bucatinsky in flashbacks.

It’s been sixteen years and I barely know you.

4/10

Switched at Birth 4.10

As a writer, I get Emmett taking Bay’s story as an inspiration, but It was too soon, since the wounds haven’t healed yet. I stand with Bay. Working through it? That’s bullshit. But we undertand why they won’t work. A lot has happened in a year, they were just kids a year ago. You may not have changed, but your thinking certainly has. Daphne’s storyline was amazing. I am glad she’s retaking the class. Couldn’t she retake the exam though?

You had no right to put this in front of all those people.
This is my life you’re drawing from.
A couple of kids from your dorm got hit by a drunk driver.
There are no doctors or nurses here who know sign language.
What if you’ve given her the dialopid?
What happened to I’m always gonna come find you?
I guess we’ll need to redo the end of our timeline.
Oh my god. I’m taking that class again.
This is not because of you.

6.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 5.23

You were talking to A.
The texts stopped when Mona was killed.
It was A, not Mona.
is he saying what I think he’s saying?
Has she offered anything to induce your testimony today?

7.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 5.24

The liars got arrested.

I’m asking you to have three aswers. Yes, no and I don’t remember.
We’re not that desperate.
Yes we are.
We find the defendant guilty.

6/10

Pretty Little Liars 5.25

First of all, I am so happy Toby got Spencer’s parents involved in the A chase. Finally! And now Tanner knows too. Weren’t we supposed to find out who A is by the end of season 5? Is Andrew A or Charles? Is he Jason’s brother? Why did the DiLaurentises give him away?D Did he pretend to be a high shool student to be closer to them? Was is Mona’s old blood that was splashed all over rhe house that made everyone assume she’s dead? Why didn’t A kidnap Ali instead of Mona if he was obssessed with his little sister? Why did I A put a manequin of Mona into the back of their car?

We’re all going to jail. A wins.
If Mona was alive.
Welcome, please follow the lighted pathway.
Yeah, she’s Mona.
Why would it start all over again?
With a new puppet master.
It was a name. Charles.
A is recreating the prom we went to.
We know about A.
You need to charge our client or release him.
This is your prom Charles, you should e crowned the king.
It’s A’s layer.
Wanna say goodbye to your sister.
My God.

Eye Candy 1.09

We tattoed our wrists with our names.
I knew it was you.
Jake.

7/10

Eye Candy 1.10

It better get a second season, cause I’m more interested in Sara’s case than the flirtual killer, but I don’t like the idea that she orchestrated the kidnaping to ‘protect Lindy’.

Stay behind the gun.
Oh I intend to.
You’re him. The killer.
Hello, Eye Candy.
You’re my perfect one.
Jake killed his mother and his father killes himself when he thought she overdosed.
Show me all entries for Sara.
This is going to my hometown.

8.5/10

Secrets and Lies 1.03

Are you aware 70 percent of child killers inserts themselves into the investigation.
How nice, you can just stick ro your routine. Most people wouldn’t.
Okay. Elimination process. It’s not yours. It’s not mine. It’s not Christine’s. It’s not Abby’s.
Or what? You’re gonna kill me too?

Secrets and lies 1.04

As I was just making an instagram video of the 50 best photos I have taken this year, I thought I’d do the same thing with episodes. And it may just be my new favorite thing. I thought of making it 2014 all together, but I don’t remember what happened 11 or 8 months ago, and it would have to involve Shameless and Orange is the New Black and shows that I haven’t seen an episode of since the season finale like, Bates Motel. I will make such roundup every half season. As I was making the list I realized how well Parenthood did this half season. Greys, even though in it’s weakest season is still doing beautifully. Three episodes of Revenge made the list, last year it would be so many more. The list includes, 6 episodes from Parenthood, 6 from Greys, 3 episodes from SVU, 3 of Revenge, 3 of Downton Abbey, 3 of Bones, 3 of The Good Wife, 3 of American Horror Story, 2 of Scandal, 2 of The Simpsons, 1 of Castle, 1 of Bad Judge, and 1 of How To Get Away With Murder.

A week late, as I was waiting to add the Downton Abbey special, but I’m not gonna wait till the 25th. I’ll rate it in early January when I sum up all the shows seperately.

Revenge 4.10

Weakest midseason finale yet and the wring character died. Couldn’t just Charlotte die instead? Most importantly, Henry Czerny guest stars, seeing his name in the opening credits made my previously awful day so much better. They should never have him killed. Emily taking Nolan’s secret dolphin shaped foil cameras was nice to watch, but her fight with the FBI agent? Everything about the FBI agent storyline felt forced. What is it with Victoria-s grandchildren? Why do they always have to lose their father shortly after they found out? Favorite scene? Daniel twlling Victoria he’s thankful for Emily telling him the truth, his monologue about wealthy families was just on point. Daniel’s death did not seem like a sacrifice to me, he was just foolishly walking in the wrong place and convinced he’s Daniel Grayson, played a knight. I did not see a sacrifice here, despite what everyone, including the promo for the next episode says. Victoria exposed the truth to David, and all I could tji k of was, enough with the flight talk. We’ve been through this already and it doesn’t matter anymore when the whole world knows he was framed.

Emily is our way out.
They hold grudges and arrest warrants.
I couldn’t live with myself If something happened to you.
A child needs a father.
Even like him?
It’s all part of a bigger plan.
In this startling dress.
I’m grateful.
We throw parties to cover up the truth. We’re not special. (Yes please)
This is not how I expected to spend my summer. (It sounds like a Nolan line, it would be so much better if he was the one who said it)
And in my rage, I chose you. (Like I said, no one cares at this point)
One of the many perks of having a genius as a best friend. (Thank you, Em)
Get out of here! Run!
Why didn’t you listen to me, Daniel! I told you to run. Why didn’t you run.
We can either choose to hide as villains or live as heros. (Wrong show, but a good line)
I want you to know it wasn’t all a lie. (Most dishonest thing on the show)
I know.

SVU 16.10

An exceptionaly painful episode, as we all know where this is going, about three seasons before that frightening promo for midseason premiere. ‘Those are my rape kits’, ‘you could always start an argument in an empty house’, ‘they’re trynna make sure I know my place’ and ‘you know that I never take no for an answer’ from Amanda’s rapist left a sour taste. Why the hell Amanda? She was my favorite character since she showed up at the precinct. Other than that an amazing episode, it might have been the first time, the squad had a brave little girl who managed to remember all the details and even thought of shoving her headphones in the seat to prove she’s been in the car. I was just as impressed as Liv and Amanda were.

I also know he’s gonna do it over and over again, until we find him.
A word of advice Rollins, when you’re coming up with an excuse, don’t over sell it.
And he might have not gone anywhere.
You know how many rapists sing, hum or whistle to their victims? A lot.
How about you take Fin?
Thank you.
You have no hot water.
I’m fine Fin.
Everything has its number but nothing is were it’s supposed to be.
Those are my rape kits?
You could always start an argument in an empty house.
They’re trynna make sure I know my place.

I can’t even go to church anymore.
Sounds like a cost effective trip.
Seems a little young for our guy.
You’re the seargant everyone’s been waiting for?
I shoved headphones between them so I could prove I was there.
It was blue and white.
Great. Don’t say sorry, honey. You did great!
These women agreed to do it. Hey wanted pills.
And since the phone is in your name, we can charge you as well. (They set it up perfectly)

Bones 10.10

In Hitchcock style. Hodgins’s a mad scientist and TJ outshined everyone. Cam fell out of the plane. On point with all the feministic remarks, so very relevant to the times. ZZ Top’s back and so are Max and Caroline and the interns. They could bring Lance back. They should have brought Sweets back for this one. Especially since they brought Pelant. Loved the credits and e everyone. A fabulous episode. Also, Hodgins.

Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz. (My reaction – Yes, our babies! So damn proud of my show)
Cam’s the maid. (Wtf!)
Temperance Brennan. NYPD. (HA!)
Dad. (Did not see that one coming)
Who are you and how did you get in here?
I told you not to call me darling.
When you stop calling me darling.
There are many reasons for murder, darling.
We gotta boogie, man. (Amen)
Christine.
(From my notes) Wtf is Pelant doing here!? (That reaction hasn’t changed)
She’s tall, dark, egzotic. (And here’s my purse, haha)
Real maid would have cleaned better. (Bones staying Bones, even in alternative world)
This beautiful artist.
What do you have in there, a dead body. Unconsious. (Did not see this line coming! Favorite of the entire episode)
How about that picture? (Had me screaming like a baby)

American Horror Story 4.09

Finn is the greatest character of this season. Go ahead, take Jimmy.

Avon calling.
Now you’re my puppet, mother.
You have a true talent.
There is nothing worse than an alcoholic with bad hygiene. (Laughed and rewinded)
Living like animals.
With one leg.
A chance of love like normal woman.
We buried her weeks ago. (Best!)
This is fresh blood from some lovely ladies I killed earlier today. (No better line than this)
I wanna give my life so you can have one.
Talk you out of it? I’m here to watch. (Haha)
Being what I am, a freak.
You dug a whole for her, you work for me and I’ll pay you 1 mln dollars in cash.
What kind of a psycho goes for a bunch of sweet housewives.

8/10

American Horror Story 4.10

Pepper’s story was excrutiating, Lily Rabe guest starred, we went back to Asylum and most importantly, Elsa did make it big! Freaks keep dropping dead like flies, how is that possible. By the time Elsa leaves for Hollywood, every single one of them will be dead. I doubt Jimmy losing his hands means he’s dead, even though it should. Maggie is such a weak character, and for the first time I liked Angela’s character. The only episode this season that made me geniunly cry.

And my sweet Pepper.
He was so stupid. (Elsa always saying one thing, thinking the complete opposite)
We should all go that way.
His head in the jar.
I don’t like working for other people. I need to be in charge. To have my own show.(Yes)
I went to the place people throw other people away, an orphanage.
My first monster. (Tearing up)
Get your hand off me you pervert. (The whole newspaper scene is genius)
So your parents just let you go off with this man? (For some reason I loved it)
I do know bullshit when I smell it. (What is this, The Help?)
I hate to break it to you, but life is not like the movies. You simple minded idiot. (Loved it)
Don’t talk to my sister like that. (Deserves a point)
Pepper is a gift. (Tearing up again)
Sweet Jesus. (My reaction exactly)
1962. (Poor Pepper, her sister deserves death)
Do I see real remorse? (So clueless and so good at the same time, I forgot how much I loved her character in Asylum)

8.5/10

Nashville 3.10

So give me a shot, as strong as you got. (With you on this one, Sadie)
I just gotta figure out what I wanna do, you know? (Yes)
People magazine? It’s practically paying for our wedding. (Great remark)
We both know who and what Will is. (Perfect)
He doesn’t want me, but I can’t be with anybody else?
What if I promised it will be alright. (Need this song asap)
My uncle’s passed out. I can’t wake him up.
I want you to marry me.
Wha?
Just say yes. (Finally Avery, finally)
I’m not that scared little girl I was 10 yrs ago anymore. (Ouch)
Layla in the pool.
I can’t marry you. (No you can’t)
But I’m not Deacon either, am I?
It’s Deacon. I can’t make you a casulty of my life. (This line)
I now pronounce you husband and wife.
Rayna driving at the end.

Bad Judge 1.09

This show started off so good and now is a complete mess. Such a shame, we love Kate so much.

Hey hey that’s me. That’s my case.
Oh so nunchunks and heroine can walk on in?
Nobody’s doing anything gently for 9 min on youtube.
That little doucheback had it coming.
That’s tough.
Oh God. You lured me into your house.

3.5/10

The Simpsons 26.08

Weakest Christmas episode of the show. After 26 seasons, I still don’t like Moe. And only so little Flanders in a religious episode?

Now for the obligatory Frozen reference.
Mr Scrooge.
If you do it now, you won’t have to watch Superball.
Welcome to bring us your toilet paper. (The only funny line)
You’re alright, stupid Flanders.
No casual racism.
The place to get drunk is at home.

3.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 5.13

‘And in Rosewood, bitches get buried‘ should be the motto of the show. No one will ever convince me to liking Ali. The show was better without her. And Cece. And when did Holbrook hook up with Ali? He knew her before she came and lied about being kidnapped. The show stopped making sense, if it ever did in the first place. What’s up with dead Mona looking like Corpse Bride? I love Ezra hanging out with the kids, it seems right. Is Bethany Mrs D’s second daughter? If she had Jason with Spence’s father she mught have had Bethany, but weren’t she and Alison the same age? Paige leaving seems unnecessary and Hanna standing up for the little girls was the best scene of the entire episode. Isn’t it funny how naive they all are to think the Christmas tree is not from A, after 5 seasons of being tortured? Killing off Mona seems like the stupidest move yet. Now Ali will get her screen time and we just can’t have that. At least Lucas was hilarious as Santa, and I guess what this epispde will leave me with is the Fight Song.

Kisses, M.
Is this us? (How did A do that?)
And the monster was born.
I haven’t signed since fat camp. Merry Christmas.
I’m pretty sure that some kid peed on ne and that mean little girl keeps calling me dumb dumb.
And in Rosewood, bitches get buried.
And all those things I didn’t say, were wrecking balls inside my brain.
I think I just found her.
Alison knew Bethany.
Merry Christmas, bitches. -A.

7/10

Switched at Birth 3.22

I thought the Freaky Friday episode worked so well the first time I watched it, the second time, not so much. But what’s up with adopting a stranger for Christmas? Regina’s reaction was priceless.

I always wanted to have the kind of Christmas you see in the movies.
I was just thinking the same thing.
Who the hell is Regina?
That means the switch never happen.
We’ll cover it up, so she’s not embarrassed in the morning.
What the hell.
Tobias.
Adopt a stranger for Christmas.
We do. We just don’t show it.
I wish we’ve been switched at birth.
What? What did you just say?
Adopt us? We don’t need to be adopted.

5.5/10

Castle 7.10

What was that? Romeo and Juliet? Weakest episode of the series, but somehow Castle managed to get himself kicked out of the precinct.

It’s the daughter.
You were in what?
You are no longer permitted to work with NYPD.

Revenge 4.09

Someone’s gonna die again? Please tell me none of the people from the promo. You can take Louise or the FBI agent or the cop. Stay away from Margot and every other supporting character. God, can we get rid of Charlotte, please? The show is much better when we don’t have to deal with her very mediocre drama and drug addiction. It’s episode 4.09 and I finally started liking Daniel. He’s much more fun when he knows everything. Is it possible that I may actually be shipping them? Victoria finally went back to her old ways and called her contact and not just sat there and waited for everything to play out. I got used to having Margot around, even though I could not see the point of keeping her these past two seasons, now she’s one of the characters my life would be a little worse without. Having David as the male lead has too many holes in the storyline. He is not a strong enough character to go anywhere with.
God, I really miss Conrad.

With Amanda. I can’t hold on to hate.
My friends are my family.
Look into her father’s death.
You owe me a reputation, a cell phone and about 20 thousand twitter followers.
I will always watch out for Emily.
September 1st 1993 we were supposed to leave, you, me, Daniel and Amanda.
Madeleine’s ‘Daaavid’.
A tracker in a glass of water.
You want me to call a poor guy and read him his last rights?
We’re the same person.
Tell me, who you’re hunting these days.
The answer is Emily Thorne.
Turns out I only care what my friends think of me.
That’s what retractions are for, no?
We’re both screwed up because of our families.
Because I’m pregnant.
What is it with you and David Clarke?

8.5/10

Bones 10.09

The online traffic cop teaching Booth how to drive was the one perk of this episode. This led Bones to being forced to work with the new guy. Also, Bones was wrong for the very first time. Plus a mediocre case that involved birds, how did I give it a niner? Must got nostalgic about the good old episodes, or the thought that the 200th episode will air next week.

If I wanted to talk squint, I would go to squint land.
Are you studying part A?
Apparently you and I eat different cereals.
Whaaat?
Turns out they were quite helpful.
Until I can judge your value as a colleague.
I don’t really have things.
A lot more interesting than mall walking.
Aubrey, I’m impressed. I will do that.
Domesticating animals is a form of enslaverment.
I need to deal with professor stop and go.
I second that.
Seems like a foolish pursuit.
Dr Brennan is gonna be so impressed.
A gift that conviniently dissappeared.
No, you’re supposed to nod.
You’re supposed to be a genius!
Why are you acting like your hockey team won?
Right now I’d rather arrest the killer and charge him with animal cruelty.
Stand up, I have to arrest you.
This is not your jurisdiction.

Nashville 3.09

This show is always such a surprise. This week, though a little weaker, solved many loop holes, we got rid of Zoey, Layla has a chance at a carreer and so does Scarlett. Isn’t it hilarious they got rid of Zoey the minute they signed a deal with Laura Benanti? Can Rayna sign Scarlett again? Is George right? Is this what she really wants? Will she like it more the second time around? I doubt Rayna is going to marry Luke, they wouldn’t do it to us. Can we take a minute to talk about Julliette in that walking chair completely covered? How hilarious was that? I hate Gunnar for ruining such chance for Scarlett and Avery. Most of artists have children, get over yourself Gunner. Also, I just realized how stupid the kid’s mother was to leave him with Gunnar and so easly ruin his carreer. She knew he was in music industry, every other show that has ever mentioned a musician character also proved that they are not exactly fit to be good parents. At the time she left him, besides thinking how cheesy this storyline is, all I thought was Gunnar is going to be a great dad, but now when he just put his family life over his friends’ carreers? Jeff finally realized Layla has so much more to offer than being an average cover pop star. I am even okay if they want to turn this hook up into a relationship. Layla, who was the most annoying character, until she wrote that song three or so episodes ago, deserves happiness too.

Last time I went to the store to buy soup, some guy asked me if I can get the can open.
Before you read the Rolling Stone.
Oh so he’s obviously trying to make himself attractive to someone.
I can’t believe it took so long to make me look even smaller.
Like a good girl should.
He walked in on Maddie and Luke’s son.
I’m happy to fill in for you. I know all your songs.
There’s more to you than annonymous hook ups.
The amazing Scarlett O’Connor is with us!
You okay?
Yeah, just PTSD. I’m fine.
So you got into music by listening to Joni Mitchel?
The problem was I didn’t have anything to say.
Why am I not letting go? Because I love you.
You’re even better with Scarlett O’Connor.
No, new life.

7/10

Castle 7.09

The case was actually quite bearable. Also, I completely get Kate’s relationship with her apartment. She lived there for more than a decade? (Is it the same one she had before it burned down or did she move along the way?) I always get so angry when my father threatens to sell my childhood apartment. Even though he was military and lived aborad at times, we never moved and even though I haven’t lived there for years, I am very much attached to my childhood home. Even though I don’t even live in my country anymore and never will, the thought of always having a place to come back to is what keeps me sane, as I deal with life disapointments. If I lose the apartment, It’s like none of the risks I took ever mattered. Now back to Castle, since I don’t remember if Kate moved back in season two, I clearly need a rewatch. Maybe I’ll appreciate the show more when I remember the emotions it used to bring me. Kate made me reminisce to the good old Doc Martens’ days, god I miss my Docs.

Used to rock that with my Doc Martens.
We can hear everything Mr Kubiak does in his bathroom.
I had her poster on my wall for like!… a minute.
Despite of being an ex-goat hurter.
And a goat hunter.
Earlogy.
How’d you know that?
FBI seminar.
When? On her way to jail?
That’s because that’s exactly how it does look.
My opinion is not affected by her shimp outfit.
Along with your poster.
This is where you rebuilt your life. Where you solved your mother’s murder.
To the best apartment ever.
I had hard kill pajamas.
You’re my boyhood dream.
I’m starring in my own action movie.
I just found something very interesting.
Identity of our killer?
And reward you for your semi-illegal behaviour?

American Horror Story 4.08

And we got to this time of year, when AHS characters start dying one by one every episode, till Jessica Lange’s character dies in the finale. I am surprised they killed Kathy Bates’ charcter so early in the show, but Ethel did not bring anything to the storyline, well ever, to be honest. Jessica’s fake and overdramatic reaction to her death was so perfectly acted out, I could not stop admiring the scene. ‘Oh I could have helped you’ had me laughing out loud. I could not be more angry with them killing Frances Conroy’s character so soon. As one of the original and recuring every season, she should have stayed till the very end. I am liking the Freakshow so much more than Coven. They brought the Axe Man back from Coven for a small cameo performance. Don’t we just love the 21st century and how easily Grace Gummer’s character could cope with the face tatoo, by simply using white ink (probably better effect than removing) and lots of make up. It woukd not be much of an issue, since she already has a guy she loves, who is in love with her (how did he survive without medical attention, we’ll never know). Kudos to the writers for another AHS paraller. I am scared to think who they’re gonna kill next. Not Amazon Eve, I beg you. Erika brings hope and inspiration to all.

Just a mother’s intuition.
Looks like an animal took her.
Go forbid someone comes along and steals your spotlight.
I am just like the rest of my children.
So we all were, Elsa. All of is. No one is innocent anymore.
Chuckling her bloody dress , that was a nice touch.
Shit.
Her head has come off.
Where’s your sense of drama?
This is not a theatre.
You’re gonna win an Oscar one day.
Oh Ethel, why!? Why!? I could have helped you!
My mother went to buy squash?
That girl is every last one of us.
It’s going to be a very messy clean up.
You’re spirited.
That’s a laugh. Where’s my mother? She ain’t buying squash.
All you have to do is kill Regina.
I’m bringing you to sit on my lap.
But I like me this way.
What if I tell you there’s a place for where every pound will be cheered and celebrated.
All 800 pounds of her.
You are no good to us without your figure.
You drank your dinner.
Look who ain’t dead yet.
This is freak women only.

Parenthood 6.09

Furious about Sarah not ending up with Mark. He only shows up to break our hearts all over again by updating us about his happy life.

So good. That was so good.
What’s your next class?
It’s hot.
What did you call me? (Lorelai/Luke flashbacks all the way)
I’m so excited I can’t wait to see her.
He’s speechless.
Step on the gas.
That’s the English teacher? Hi… hot!
I am more hygenic than he is. (please Max, you just started showering, last season)
Were you waving to the hot English teacher?
She knows him. They dated. They were engaged.

I think this is a case of absentee parents trying to blame someone for their absence (Adam is back after what seems like an entire season just to… kill it)
It’s been really eye-opening.
Look, there are no cookies. Game’s over, boy. (Camille’s first good scene since, well, ever)
It’s not booked or anything.
Oh good, it’s not gonna be booked.
Can you just make sure the credit card doesn’t come out?
You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. (Just when I was missing Sarah/Mark)
Some of those kids, right?
I felt like I didn’t deserve to be in your life, Julia. I love you so much. I’m never gonna stop loving you.
I understand that Max can’t help it.
They never listen! They don’t get that it’s the first place in five years that actually helped me.
That’s confusing.
I was only trying to do nice things.
This is gonna sound weird, but I’m glad I knew you.
I’m glad I knew you, too. I’m very glad I knew you.
You’re happy, right? I have baggage and I’m weird. Do you think your life would be better if you chose him?

Only if she wants to see me.
See you tommorrow at school, Asbergers.
It’s okay. In her case it’s a term of endearment, so I understand and take no offense.

You asked me if I’m happy. I’m happy. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.
Camille, Camille. Call an ambulance. I can’t breathe.

Greys 11.08

The last 2 minutes made me cry like a little baby I was 11 seasons ago. This show will always be more important to me than my life.All the flashbacks to the most important moments of Meredith’s life accompanied by a hearbreaking voiceover left me utterly breathless.

I know how fo read a brain scan, Derek. I learned from the best, remember?
I just said I don’t want to know.
Marry the work, Rollins. It’s always there for you.
So by nothing you mean everything?
Oh good idea. Just sit still and stare. Like a creep.
What’s that and why do you keep drinking it.

We’re all a risk. We all have something.
A fellow of Dr Shepherd.
It’s spectacular.
Robbins, occupied.
She is the head and Derek is not.
You could try. She’s open to ideas.
Oh shut up.
What are we to you? Trash? You just move on to the next one?
You will figure it out.
You too.
Do you miss me? At all?
Of course.
Just not enough.
Welcome to my life.
They’re both so much like their mother.
I’m gonna screw as many Grahams as I want.
God can you keep something in your head for like two seconds?
911 for this?
What if it was me?
Or someone really good like Bailey?
And screw you.
Shepherd screwed me again.
I’m not gonna care how that sounds.
Okay. Now I’m bored.
Sorry, kale rage talking.
You have people, right?
Do you? Have people?
Let me know if you need people. I’m around.
Stop throwing football at my face.
It worked.
So, what does it mean? What do we take away? Which pieces will haunt us? Hurt us? End us? Inspire us? The carousel never stops turning. You can’t get off.

Svu 16.08

That work related?
Guys what is this? Celebrity nudes task force?

It ain’t easy.
That changes everything.
How the hell did they get that?
The old fashioned way, they paid for it.
I was raised the same way.
Just because a person can’t admit, or is in denial about the abuse, does not mean the abuse didn’t happen or won’t worsen.
That’s not what I saw on video.
Yes, and I’ve heard that before.

I won’t ask more about Seargeant’s double standards.
Savior of damaged women.
Some of us don’t need to be saved.

That doesn’t bother you?
You can’t take this job home. You can’t take anyone from this job home.
Physical violence is a crime, even if she’s ‘just’ his wife.
You think he was beating me up? What do you think you did?

Revenge 4.08

You tweeted the picture of this view, hashtag #neverleaving.
Turns out she has one.
She took everything from us.
I cleared your name.

I was never here.
Until I heard my name cleared. That was your doing, wasn’t it? I am so proud of you, Amanda.
I love you, Amanda. Infinity times infinity.

Can I just have a normal friend?
Start talking.

Bones 10.08

We’re gonna be at every school play, graduation and hockey game.
I doubt that very much.
I don’t think yiu understand infants.
That’s foolish and ignorant.
Wait, didn’t Daisy ask for a general anestisia when she had her tooth filled?
Is there anything I can do?
Maybe just keep telling her she’s ignorant, stuff like that.
Should I go now and tell her that she’s ignorant?
And this appointment is with a real doctor?
You’re an addict.
Oh shut up.
Bones this is really not the time.
He looks like Sweets.
He’s Seely Lance Wick Sweets.
I knew your dad.

American Horror Story 4.07

We paid good money for them.
There’s something wrong with Dandy and you know it.
I’m sorry, but I choose my sister. Always.
Truthfully? Adequate.
Of course my darlings. Anything you need.
Are you trying to get your way with me?
Who’s the stronger man now?
Do you condemn this outrageous behavior?
We make the perfect before and after picture.
Ma Petite in a jar.

Nashville 3.08

Rayna looks so beautiful.
I must thank the one and only Deacon Claybourne
So what is he saying, Rayna wouldn’t have done it without him?
She makes it look so easy.

It’s just always so damn lonely.
Is it just me or do they really not seem happy right now?
I’m not my father and you are not your mother. We’re us.
There’s plenty of sunshine for all of us.

It’s about what sells.

The Simpsons 26.07

I’m sorry. Hahaha.

Homer Simpson, I love you.

Scandal 4.09

Elisabeth’s in bed with vice president.
Photos are out.
This seems cruel to James.
A kill card.
You have a finger?
The sun came down a while ago and it’s not coming back up.
Today I’m a joke. A punchline.
Thank you for your service.
Yes, Leo Burgen.
At his house? All night?
Yes.
Could you be more ungrateful?
Girl, you need to move on.
He ruined you.
So what? That’s how it is.
I’m marrying a whore, at least I know what I’m paying for.

How to Get Away With Murder 1.09

I’d pay to see her face right now.
Sam killed Lila and Rebecca is trying to prove it.
I’m just saying, he fell.
I was protecting Laurel.
She was.
Shouldn’t we be calling an ambulence?
You mean police, idiot. He’s dead.

We could be charged with fellony murder.
I’m like the most grown up grown up of all of you assholes.
What do you suggest?
Something that doesn’t involve carrying a body across the campus on the busiest night of the year.

This is murder, none of us knows what we’re talking about.
We have the whole night to dig.
I’m a grown ass woman.
Just come here, you idiot.
We all had to do things tonight we did not want to do.
Enough about the ring, Frodo.
Same time next week?
Train’s leaving, waitlist. You’re coming?

I’m so sorry.
Don’t be.

Parenthood 6.08

Dad, mom thinks I’m an idiot.
Have you seen Dylan?
That doesn’t make any sense. It’s not even kitchen hours.
You need to expel Aaron Brownsteen.
Sweetheart every kid at this school has behavioral issues. That’s the entire point of Chambers academy.
Yes, he’s a freak. We all are.
Max you’re being a little too Aspbergers.
As headmaster your personal feelings are not your concern.
We’ve fot ourselves a toothpaste commercial. For a reduced price.
Crosby what are you, uncle Adam?
Yhym. That’s great.
I’m never gonna like Max in that way.
Someone has to raise some money, which is what I’m trying to do.
I’m the dad. That means get out! Let’s go Breakfast Club. Beat it.
Let’s get our faces on park benches.
One direction isn’t playing either, so you’re in the wrong line.
Did the kids bring anything good?
Actually there’s a bottle of Brandy.
Oh yeah that tastes like high school.
Even if she did mean it, she won’t in the morning.
Max, I will never love you, okay? Just leave me alone.
We’ll all get our time to shine.

10/10

Greys 11.07

But we are.
Quiet. I got a pulse.
Amelia, you’re a doctor.
I want a different doctor. She’s a junkie!
She’s losing it.
Yes she is.
Those are your rights. It’s the past. And you don’t have to defend it.
You never get away from it.
No you don’t.
And you didn’t barf into your mask. Bravo.
And none of you stopped him?
Other shoe. We’ve got this. Go.
How can you do this to me? You’re my brother.
And I’m historically lousy at being a sister.
I wanted her job. I wanted my old job back.
Derek, why did you even…
Well, that was stupid.
That doctor.
Doctor Shepherd.
She promised.
Everybody lived here.
We all have sexual relations. That’s terribly weird.
See. Everybody lives here.
I don’t know who I am anymore. I’m angry all the time. I’m miserable and I don’t know what to do with it. All I do is hurt people and I just can’t get control of it. I don’t know what to do anymore.

10/10

SVU 16.08

Is that the guy who hit on Rollins?
Then we will.
I have a sister I haven’t spoken to in two years.
And you were supposed to do what exactly?
I wasn’t talking to you, Mama Bear.
I wanna save this little boy and whoever else they have.
He was the victim?
You were the sweetest boy.
They would’ve sent someone older, tougher.
He would just come in.
Is this Henry?
SVU Sergent.
Nice Olivia nice.
You know how it feels to be raped.
What happens in the box stays in the box.
I had a parnter like that.
So they can watch this.
He’s gonna be raped.
You’re that stupid?
So when your kids go to college…
Benson, any good at undercover?
Show him the picture.
These are Henry’s parents.
It was better if it was me and not somebody else.
He was the one who chained me down for you.
Dear lord.
Three pieces of crap delivered.

10/10

Revenge 4.07

What good is an insomniac bestie for if not for midnight house calls.
Because you need some late night reading?
It won’t be easy.
Is it ever?
It’s like digging for oil and finding gold underneath it.
And who knew he screw Amanda out of all that money?
They really cared about each other.
Who else was her friend?
There is no way this ends well for you.
Emily Thorne, I’m David Clarke. I thought It was time we met.
Amanda knew how much you cared about her.
Thank you for speaking to me.
Any time.
He didn’t even recognise me, Nolan. How could he not know who I am?!
And the helicopter is gonna be here in 5 4 3 2.
Unacceptable. I could have died in there.
Funny you should ask.
I didn’t.
Victoria, get out!
You could have come for me, but you didn’t! You could have come for me!
Amanda? It’s you.

10/10

Bad Judge 1.07

That would have been a good information to know.
Relatives? Cousins?
What? Haha. Inside joke.
Wow, cas.
Aren’t all sign language the same?
Raaacist.
We’re going to a hotel. That’s where prostitutes take their johns.
I think most of those people are prostitutes and johns.
Otherwise you can’t have the free champagne.
Get up, you’re embarassing yourself.

4.5/10

Bones 10.7

This is not gonna be good for my divorce settlement.
Jackass.
Swearing.
You are delightfully naive.
A fun, loving person.
Yes in a second. Just gotta get a picture of this for the christmas party.
Would you mind getting me the victim’s nose?
Yeah, I can show you how to do that later.
This way. No tips.
Okay snuffs. Take the bill out of your nose.
Way to go Dr Brennan.
We fight to try and change the past and put it away but the pain is a part of who we are.
Because I’m very brainy.
Bunny didn’t seem to mind.
Yeah, why not mom?
Mommy’s gonna talk to us.

9/10

Castle 7.06

Castle and Kate got married! The case reminded me of the good old days when they couldn’t see they’re in love with each other, also the mirror scenes to the pilot.

10/10

American Horror Story 4.06

As if it matters. We’re all just spinning on the wheel.
Inbreeding has caused enough pain in this family.
Because they are freaks. So am I. But when I’m with them I feel normal.
Enough about the twins. I’ve had enough of this.
I demand you have fun at once. Or I’ll put one of you against the wheel.
Hello, ladies.
And suddenly it was clear why we’re here.
Now please don’t speak to me further.
Is this freak bothering you?
As a matter of fact, he is.
You’re not even American.
You’re making me angry, Dot.
You’re not playing by the rules.
And it won’t even fight back.
September, November.
Little culture for TV viewers. God knows they need it.
Yeah, like a butterfly.
You never even called a doctor, did you?
Speaking of cheap perfume.
I don’t know they don’t seem to be in any rush.
Dandy, why are you crying?

10/10

Downton Abbey 5.08

How unpleasant.
Wouldn’t you agree Mrs Bates?
Bully what out?
Fetch the case, Sprout.
There’s quite something about Marigot. I can’t put my finger on it.
Funny is one word for it.
But why? What have I done?
Sometimes I think my life has no possibilities.
Have some water.
How about lack of self knowledge.
I’m turning in my notice.
Where is miss Danker?
Who has a life where everything is easy?
Why should you let them cheat you of your future?
Anything’s worth a try.
I’m crying, because I don’t want you to leave.
We have our memories you and I.
Mrs Danker was take ill.
Never mind, I wish she’d been taken away by the man in white coats.
We didn’t want any desperate confessions. Remember, this is not your day.
If you’ll do anything to stop this wedding, I will leave you.
Am I expected to be a good loser?
It’s too late for that, my dear. Far too late.
People grow up and move away and things change.
He wasn’t good enough for you, Milady.
He says he’s come here to arrest you.
Sorrow seems to shadow them.

10/10

Nashville 3.7

Give it up for the queen of country.
That’s what you gotta write.
Is that why?
Dude, seriously she write this?
It’s hurt. But it gave me a voice.
I’m bleeding my sorrow out.
I googled you.
In a couple of weeks he’s going to be your step brother.
Hey how does a can opener work?
I’ll go up there with you.
Juliette’s song.
Rayna’s song.
Carry on here comes a better day.
What if I give you the story of Deacon Claybourne.
Feel like I need to take a stand.
Sorry I missed the first. Want happen again.
When she’s coming.

8.5/10

Scandal 4.08

It’s so nice to see Samsung instead of an Apple on TV, especially if it’s Samsung Galaxy S5.
David Rosen.
I wonder what the law says about that.
At his new apartment that I paid for. Like an idiot.
I damaged you.
If you will.
Oh I will.
Ironic, isn’t it? It’s always the ones who are the closest to us.
It’s not appropriate. What they’re about to do to each other, with their bodies.
Havvy saw it.
The pages, they’re blank.

5.5/10

How to Get Away with murder 1.08

Who else could it be, her virgin boyfriend?
Do you believe him?
You had when you said you were at Yale and I believed you like some kind of fool.
And here she is dragging the body of her nanny.
I’ll be partying it up.
I watch court TV.
Maybe don’t use sex as an example on stand.
I have to put up with your terrible mousy existance.
Did you want me? No.
Bad things happen when you have sex.
Like what?
What, you have it?
It really doesn’t matter who has the trophy.
I met Lila the night she was killed.
He’s not a good man, Annalise.
You’re fired.
Dude, you should have told me you live in a ghetto.

8/10

The Simpsons 26.6

Civil war coffin.
That could be anyone’s.
Even God hates jazz.
Better send the dog down.
Tasty Boy.
I don’t know. You die?
Oh My God.
My ass is about to project.
Get a load of these freaks.
And bury Bart.
Where’s Maggie?
It’s 6:08 can’t you just let me enjoy my day?
Why are you wearing your uniform then?
Because these are the only clothes that fit me, okay?!

6/10

The Good Wife 6.09

I won’t stand beside you. Not again. Not in a million years.
Zip your pants, shut your mouth and stop banging the help.
Because child services told me to.

6.5/10

Faking it 2.08

It’s not like it was with Amy.

2/10

Web Therapy 4.04

Providing the service to people.
I guess that’s the only way to look at it.
Good for you.
Oh, you drink for charity.
Which hole does it go into.
You’re gonna be the face of the new product.
I want your face on it.
Grace bought twelve. She doesn’t even have that many holes.
That was the whole crew of overweight office workers.
And it’s gonna be a good evidence in the court of law.
Oh that’s a nice wallpaper.

6.5/10

Chicago Fire 3.7

No more cousins from you.
Do not unbelt your seatbelt.
They’re cracking open the car from the bottom.
I smell gas.
He’s happy. Who cares how he got there.
That act won’t save you.
The instructor is awesome.
Fire department. Call out.
Oh man.
It’s Lindsay’s brother.
We’ll send it to Manhattan’s SVU.

6/10

Chicago PD 2.07

You remember detective Rollins?
That’s relevant how?
This is gonna end bad. I just know it.
What’s worse than gettinh killed.
Just trying to remember the ones we’ve saved.
Lean on me.
Why does he still has her listed as a foster mother?
Olivia Benson’s on the phone.
And miss your smiling face?
I’m not an expert on many things, but when it comes to these kinds of crimes unfortunately, I am.

Welcome to ReviewThisFilm

This website started in 2010 as weekly reviews of movies and tv episodes, and a diary of the 700 new films I watched every year. Today it’s a place for me to write a few words on films and tv shows that leave some sort of impact on me. I no longer write in depth reviews, mostly thanks to bad habits gained by spending many hours a day on Letterboxd.

If you have a film you would like me to watch and review,  please leave a comment.

Enjoy!

About the Author

All I do is watch movies, the good, the bad and the ugly. Sometimes I make my own.

Check out my latest film (120K+ views on Youtube):

www.youtube.com/watch?v=WP3Iz23hD7M

I’ve seen over 6000 films and 220 TV shows. I have a degree in Film Production, and wrote my dissertation on Italian neorealism. I mostly gravitate towards social issues films, anything Ken Loach, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio De Sica or Jafar Panahi, etc.

I rate films within genre. I watch a lot of films on Mubi, Filmbox Arthouse. My favourite directors are Yasujiro Ozu, Ken Loach, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Zhang Yimou, Roberto Rossellini, Ingmar Bergman, Brian De Palma, Vittorio De Sica and Andrzej Wajda. My favourite actresses have always been Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. I’m nostalgic and reminisce a lot. I’m at the cinema 10 times a month. And I’m a Polish-British millennial.

I will watch anything:

psychological | arthouse | foreign | independent | drama | horror | lgbt | strong female characters | female centred films | dysfunctional families | sexual assault | troubled childhood | mental health issues

About me

I am the dark and twisty Meredith Grey, the mad Dexter Morgan, hoping to grow up to be a little more like the wise, but fun Nora Walker. I am an aspiring filmmaker. My favorite actresses are Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. Favorite genre – psychological drama. I watch anything with a sexual or mental abuse plot. I used to be a horror freak. I am obsessed with Grey’s Anatomy, SVU and many more. My other interests include making oil and pencil portraits and wildlife conservation. I cannot say no to beautiful landscapes, travel, Aussie accent, TV/film quotes and avocados. I have recently moved back from Australia to the UK. I’ve been running this blog for the last 9 years. Here I comment on films and episodes I watch. Enjoy! – Joanne

favourite film and tv quotes

‘When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I’ve met you and moved to Sydney, I haven’t listened to one Abba song. That’s because my life is as good as an Abba song. It’s as good as Dancing Queen.’ (Muriel’s Wedding)

‘I used to think about
your life in New York. I tried to imagine your room. I kept track of the time difference, so I  knew when you were awake and when you were asleep.’ (Disobedience)

‘Nothing’s clean, Howard. But we do our best, right?’ (The Aviator)

‘No, I’m not quitting. I don’t quit things.’
‘No, actually you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you. You quit your boyfriend and if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It’s what you know how to do.’ (Greys)

‘Where the hell was I that year?’
‘Your were watching television’. (Everybody Loves Raymond)

‘It’s impossible to worry about anything else when there’s blood coming out of you.’
(Short Term 12)

‘I wanted it to happen. And when we were girls… Even then, it was the same. It’s always been this way! I have always wanted it.’ (Disobedience)

‘Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone, someone good.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a moment when our lives change forever. The moment we admit our weaknesses, the moment we rise to a challenge, the moment we accept a sacrifice, or let a loved one go. And sometimes the change in our lives is an answer to our prayers.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Yesterday I went to the movies all day by myself. One after the other. I’ve never done that before. I had a really happy day.’ (Doing Time for Patsy Cline)

‘I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed a feel like I might die today.’ (Greys)

‘She saved me my whole life. Without her, I’m nothing.’ (The Favourite)

‘Don’t wonder why people go crazy. Wonder why they don’t. In face of what we can lose in a day, in an instant, wonder what the hell it is that make us hold it together.’  (Greys)

‘Bree sobbed quietly in the restroom for five miutes, but her husband never knew, because when Bree finally emerged, she was perfect.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘I am not food, you cannot just eat and eat.’ (The Favourite)

‘I don’t love him.’
‘Of course you do.’
‘No!’
‘Don’t take me for a fool Olive,  I’m many things but I’m not a fool.’
‘I know that, you’re brilliant.’
‘Don’t you see, it’s over. Whatever this is, was, it’s over.’
‘I love You.’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)

‘At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing, is reason enough to celebrate.’ (Greys)

‘Many years ago, a neighbour and a good friend of ours took her life, and that left us all heartbroken and perplexed. But somehow, when I was alone in that hotel room, I forget about all the pain that she caused. In those awful moments, I thought maybe she had the answer.‘ (Desperate Housewives)

‘What happened last year when you fell in the water?’
‘I almost drowned. Do you think I did that for kicks?’
‘You put your hand in a body cavity that contained unexploded ammunition.’
‘I was trying to save a patient!’
‘Why is it that every other person in that room had the sense to hit the deck? You know people run away from this line between life and death. You seem to stand on it and wait for a strong wind to sway you one way or the other. You’re careless with your life. You’re not slitting your wrists but you’re careless. Probably because your mother told you you were a waste of space on this planet. The problem is you believed her. And if you don’t want out one of these days you’re going to die because of it.’  (Greys)

‘This is the street where I used to live and these were the people with whom I shared my life. I met them the day they moved in. And I saw what they brought with them. Beautiful dreams for the future. And quiet hopes for a better life. Not just for themselves, but for their children, too. If I could, would I tell them what lies ahead? Would I warn them of the sorrow and betrayal that lie in store? No. From where I stand now, I see enough of the road to understand how it must be traveled. The trick is to keep moving forward, to let go of the fear and the regret that slow us down and keep us from enjoying a journey that will be over too soon. Yes, there will be unexpected bends in the road, shocking surprises we didn’t see coming, but that’s really the point. Don’t you think?’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Was your life not working when you let that slip out from under you?’
‘When are you going to stop suggesting that I’m suicidal?’
‘When you start acting like someone that wants to be alive.’
‘Give me my chart.’
‘Why?’
‘Because I’m not suicidal, and if it says that I am, then it’s wrong.’ (Greys)

‘There is nothing wrong with me.’
‘Then show me your arm.’ (Degrassi)

‘Look, my whole life, I have been the freak. The girl who nobody picked for dodgeball. The girl who didn’t have a mom. The girl who dressed funny because it was her dad buying her clothes. And then, tonight I looked at these people, and I thought maybe there’s a future where I don’t have to be a freak. Maybe I can be who I am and that’s okay.’ (Everything Sucks)

‘Dr, I have been this way since…since I can remember. There is no cure.’ (American Horror Story)

‘He was so crazy about me, I couldn’t breathe. So we tried drinking our way back into love, but it never made sense in the morning. So I ran. And every time I came back, he was here. And he was still crazy about me.’ (My Blueberry Nights)

‘Bree van de Kamp had always wanted to live her life with elegance and grace. That is also how she wanted to die. Her plan was to pour herself a glass of her favorite chardonnay, put on her most stylish nightgown and leave behind a note on embossed stationery.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘All we have is this moment. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be… here…. now.’ (Six Feet Under)

‘On the train coming here, we were in the same cart, I saw you, you were reading and you feel asleep. I didn’t dare to look at you, you were so beautiful, it was scary. Afterwards,  I couldn’t stop thinking about you. It made me smile. Then I thought of all the men who would get to hold you, who’d make you laugh. How lucky they were.’ (Enemy at the Gates)

‘It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. Even when it was hard, I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought I cant do this, I cant do this alone. I close my eyes and imagine myself doing it, and I did, I blocked out the fear, and I did it.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a time when we must expose our weaknesses. When our secrets can no longer remain private, when our solitude can no longer be denied, when our pain can no longer be ignored, but sometimes we feel so alone that a weakness we thought we’d overcome suddenly becomes too strong to fight.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Why did you get married, Esti? Why didn’t you just leave? So everything was all right when I left?’
‘No. I was ill.’
‘What sort of ill?’
‘In my head.’
‘If I had to sleep with a man, why not with our best friend?’
‘Oh, Esti…’
‘It hasn’t been a complete disaster.’
‘And that’s enough?! Do you have to have sex every Friday?’
‘It’s expected.’
‘It’s medieval. What happened to you?’
‘Nothing. You happened to me. And then I started teaching and that became important. I give them ambition.’
‘To do what? Push out seven babies and be a good wife?’
‘Don’t. Don’t. I help them to value themselves.’
‘Okay, but what about you?’
‘That is me. And you? Are you happy?’
‘Yes, I am.’
‘Have you been with other women?’
‘No. Not really. And you?’
‘No.’
‘But, Esti… Do you still
only fancy women?’ (Disobedience)

‘OK, then, listen. Let’s not get caught.’
‘What are you talkin’ about?’
‘Let’s keep goin’!’
‘What d’you mean?’
‘Go.’
‘You sure?’
‘Yeah. Yeah.’ (Thelma & Louise)

‘She let me live at Nora’s house. She let me believe that I was a part of their family. I fell in love with that family. What am I supposed to do, just sit there, pretend I’m related to them? I was happy. For the first time in my life I was happy.’ (Brothers and Sisters)

‘You will be left all alone with your bitterness and your rage and your knowledge that you loved her and she loved you and you threw it away for them.’
‘Do you love her?’
‘Yes.’
‘And Have you always?’
‘Yes.’
‘So then ask her.’
‘Olive, will you forgive me?’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)

‘No razors, no scissors, no fucking freedom.’
(Short Term 12)

‘You can’t take a picture of this. It’s already gone.’ (Six Feet Under)
