The whole Joey/bar plot is the reason why the show is not a 10 this year. And again I will upload my notes in a few days when my holiday starts.

This is how I graded the show in the fall season.

Private Practice 6.08

10/10

Private Practice 6.09

‘Sheldon, I’m dying’. ‘Not today.’

So who do you talk to then?’ ‘Honestly? You.’

‘It’s better to have someone you can just be alone with.’ ‘Yeah.’

10/10

Greys Anatomy 9.08

‘Just look at them. They’re so fresh and shiny. Can’t believe we used to be them.’
‘I can’t believe they used to be us.’

‘What do we do? What do we do?’ ‘ You’re the surgeon, hon. You tell us.’

‘All the attendings are asleep right now, and we’re in charge. We’re saving lives. This is it, you know? We’re surgeons. We’re no longer med students waiting to be surgeons.’

‘What the…’ ‘Oh, my God.’ ‘Oh, hell, no.’ ‘God, I love this job.’ ‘Now get us a real damn doctor!’

‘They’re trying to kill me! That’s what’s going on.’

‘U know that live nerves r better than dead 1s. Even I know that n I’m an intern.’

‘I have a jacket. It’s so far away.’

‘There don’t have to be harps playing or birds singing or rose petals falling from the sky.And there are definitely days when the romance is dead. But if you look around…Things are pretty amazing. So stop for a second. Enjoy the beauty. Feel the magic. Drink it in. Cause it won’t last forever. The romance will fade. Things will happen. People will change. Love will die. But… Maybe not today.’

10/10

Greys Anatomy 9.09

‘The body doesn’t know the difference between nerves and excitement, panic and doubt, the beginning and the end. The body just tells you to get the hell out. Sometimes you ignore it. That’s the reasonable thing to do. But sometimes you listen. You’re supposed to trust your gut, right? When your body says run… Run.’

My version of family isn’t like your version. You guys give each other crap and then you laugh about it. You’d walk through fire for each other. Greys are not like that.’

8/10

Revenge 2.09

Perfect fall finale. Let’s hope we’re done with Ashley. And nobody cares about the bar.

9/10

Dexter 7.10

Monsters, aliens, phantoms – none of them are real. The thought that an actual person could do this is too awful, so our imaginations create a way|to make it easier to take. But even the strongest of imaginations can’t protect us once we know the truth.

My Dark Passenger. That’s what I call my need to kill. Because it’s like this thing living inside me, telling me what to do, saying I have to kill, not leaving me any choice.
You’re not a puppet. Of course you have a choice.
Actually, I don’t.
Come on, Dex. It’s just you. You’re the one who wants the arsonist dead. And I don’t blame you. Who wouldn’t?
It’s not the same.
Well, what do you mean? How is it different?
Cause a lot of people feel|like they want to kill somebody, but I have to follow through.

Of course I have a Dark Passenger. There’s no other way to explain this compulsion.

Excuse me, but what|is so fucking awesome about my brother dating a killer?

That voice I hadn’t seen that look on your face since you took me to see the snow. Is that what you were talking about? Your Dark…Rider?
Dark Passenger. Okay, fine. It sounds a little silly when you say it out loud.
No, I get what you mean, you know. You do seem like a different person, so it makes sense that you would name that part of yourself. Does it just take over? Where do you go? Does Dexter Morgan just disappear?
No, I’m still there.
Do you hear a voice, or?
Not exactly. It’s more like a need.
So it’s just like a feeling.

Now that I have proof, my urges are beyond my control.
Your Dark Passenger. Where did you come up with that, anyway?
I thought I got it from you.
I gave you the code. The Dark Passenger was all yours.
You said it got into me too early, in that shipping container. Like you thought I was possessed.
I meant you were traumatized, Dexter. Not possessed. I remember the first time you said it. You must have been about 12. I just let it go. I couldn’t let you blame yourself for feelings that were too complicated for a young boy to understand. But you’re not a boy anymore.
Maybe the Dark Passenger is just a feeling.
It can’t be.
Why?
Because if there’s no Dark Passenger, then I’m responsible for everything I’ve done. It sure is a whole lot simpler|to just pin all the blame on something else, isn’t it, Dexter? It’s much scarier to think that the Dark Passenger is no more real than I am.

The Dark Passenger has been with me ever since I can remember, pulling the strings, running the show. But as it turns out, I’m no puppet.

10/10

Dexter 7.11

Personally, I think she’s had|one too many ‘mosquitos’ or whatever they call that goddamn drink.

This is the most fucked-est Christmas ever.

Christmas is a time of expectation. If you’re good, a red-suited fat man will break into your house and leave you presents. But Santa Claus doesn’t exist. The most wonderful time of the year celebrates a lie.

I cut him into six roughly equal|pieces with a chain saw… just like he did my mother. Just like I’m gonna do to you.

Who am I gonna be when you’re dead? Still some fucking freak, probably.

You should have killed me.

I should know better|than to count on the future. All you can ever believe in is now, this moment. Because in a blink… everything can change.

10/10

Dexter 7.12

Perfection. I’m not even sorry. Bye LaGuerta. I’ve never liked you. I cannot believe I have to wait another 10months. Didn’t Deb see Dex kill like yday?

It’s the end of the world you know. Anne is incredible.

Suburgatory 2.07

If it was really terrible, I would know what to do, but this one was actually pretty good/funny, so I guess I will watch a few more till I make this decision.

Grey’s Anatomy 9.07

So this guy grabbed Ellen’s butt, and then her breast. Second McBaby! Poor Cristina. No, April, what the hell are you doing?

8/10

Revenge 2.08

Revenge is back to its best! And winter finale promo! Oh my, but just one episode left? Wasn’t Victoria boarding the plane like…yesterday? Victpria’s storyline is just what I expected it to be.

‘Was it worth it?’ ‘Some would say you owe all of that to me. You may think I knocked you down, but you landed on your feet.’

‘Victoria! Come here, quickly. You just couldn’t control yourself, could you? Batting your eyelashes like a little whore.’

‘And then one night, she saw him sneak into my room. And the next morning, she threw me to the curb.’

‘You threw me out on the street. I was a child. I was fifteen!’ ‘You drove a wedge between me and every man I ever loved. I should’ve listened to your deadbeat father, gotten rid of you before you were even born.’

‘It serves you right for choosing a pedophile over your own daughter.’

‘We do have a good number of rooms here. Pity, as you say, none of them are for you.’ ‘You vindictive bitch.’ ‘Goodbye, mother.’

‘We speak in hushed voices, so as not to wake our memories, the things we’ve done, the things we’ll continue to do, for fear of breaking the cycle, how fierce we were when we were young, when we were unafraid of coming unhinged.’
‘For fear of breaking the cycle…’

‘Was it worth it? Has the darkness finally been lifted?’ ‘Ask me tomorrow.’

‘Never thought I would see so many things that have come to pass, but here we are.’

‘Everything about my father’s conspiracy is in this box. Everything… about the girl I left behind when I started on all of this.’

‘Double infinity.’ ‘A journey with no end.’

10/10

Dexter 7.09

‘You can be absolutely fearless in the face of death and yet so afraid to live?’ ‘I’m not afraid. Death has always calmed me. It’s soothing, predictable, inevitable. With a knife in my hand I feel it’s mine to control.’ ‘It gives you intimacy. But it never /lasts.’

8/10

Bones 8.08

First time in a long time, I am disappointed. But Fisher will always remain my favorite intern. Depression and dark comedy all the way.

4/10

Go On 1.10

Way better than last week. Anne is my favorite, but no surprises there.

6/10

Suburgatory 2.06

That was actually…very good!

8/10

X Factor 22.20 and 2.21

Vino? Why Vino? America, you’ve made a huge mistake. ‘Anybody could take that number one spot, even the girl in eighth place.’ loved that line! Go Cece! Paige is the only one who had the guts to tell Demi she’s wrong. Tate blew d competition away. Josh Krajcik was my favorite last year, but I was not crazy about his performance or song. Same with Alicia Keys. ‘When you watched Carly Rose’s performance did you feel that she was number one?’ ‘Yeah.’ Poor Tate, but Carly was unbelievable last week.’I’m sure we’ll be seeing you accept a Country Music Award one day. You’re brilliant.’

I have made two tough choices, I have decided to quit on American Horror Story, but only this season. Season three is a new story and hopefully It will be closer to season 1’s one. I really loved the show last year, but this year is just average. It would be good, but the creatures and Nazi doctor, I have seen it so many times, I do not care about the storyline at all.
The second show is Suburgatory. The show was strong last season, but this one is just disastrous. There were two exceptions, the first episode of the season, this weeks episode, but the rest was terrible. I will watch the rest of the fall season, but the chances of me tuning in for midseason are very low.

Private Practice 6.06

Absolute perfection. Addie will always be my most favorite character.

10/10

Private Practice 6.07

I thought Jake’s episode would be boring, and there I was surprised! Seeing Kate at the cinema, yes, God, yes.

10/10

Dexter 7.08

‘You’re a serial killer and I’m more fucked up than you are.’

Is this crazy? You and me just sitting here eating breakfast?
I always eat breakfast, it’s important.

10/10

SVU 14.08

‘I’ve been doing this for a long time… and I understand the shame and the stigma. But keeping the abuse secret… doesn’t make it go away.’

7/10

Castle 5.08

We’re here to save you.

You parked here? Are you kiddinh me, don’t you see this neighboorhood?
Yeah, keep on walking.
Kate broke the car’s window.
Hidning in the playground.
Martha’s all ‘pricinct is my theatre’.
Oh, please stop, you’re a terrible actress.
You got trouble written all over you.
Martha and Kate’s father.
Just an average white guy walking through the Bronz in the middle of the night, what could go wrong.
Shakespeare over here made a call.
How she threw her hands on him.

6/10

Bones 8.07

Human?
I’ve never smelled anything like that. I suppose this could be…
Do not fall into the evidence, Dr.Hodgins. It would only add to your humiliation.
Dr. Hodgins foolishly inhaled nauseous gases emanating from the remains and he fainted.
How are you gonna fit a murder into that?
Why does your office smell like Thanksgiving?
You’re a political ezile, that’s so cool, in a terrible way of course.
I’m not buttering her up. You want some wine?
I think you did.
Oh my God.
Yeah, I know.
I love you. You’re my corroborator.
Who dreams about murder at 3 am in the morning?
Seriously?
The hell you are.
Gotcha.
I don’t have reasons.

8/10

X Factor 22.18 and 2.19

Vino Alan came in third third week in a row and Tate Stevens lost to Carly Rose, but that’s okay, cause she was incredible! Beatrice Miller was my third favorite, and even though she sang Chasing Cars (Hi, Greys), this week was her weakest. Very sad to see her go. Carly and Cece Frey are up one spot on my list! The rest of the contestants can go home.

Go On 1.09

Nothing special, not really funny.

2/10

American Horror Story 2.06

The second season is disappointing.

Grey’s Anatomy 9.06

Cristina is back, and Alex and her are living at Mer’s. Callie’s speech to Derek. Jo is annoying, but the rest of the episode was pretty amazing.

8/10

Private Practice 6.05

Weakest episode of the series? Sadly yes. I really thought there could not be an average episode of this incredible show, then Shonda tells us the story of the character nobody cares about anymore. Why do I have a feeling it was Addie who got drunk at her graduation party not her mother?

5/10

SVU 14.07

Not as good as the previous one, but still SVU good.

8/10

Dexter 7.07

To save her for your table.
Yeah, why won’t you guys wait outside while we’re in here vomiting.
Code, huh? Sometimes life just needs to be taken, there’s no need to dress it up.
I think you’re just afraid to admit that you enjoy killing.
You ever wonder what It would be like if you didn’t have all these rules?
She isn’t drown to my darkness like Lila or blinded to it like Rita, and she doesn’t need it like Lumen. She accepts both sides of me. The whole Dexter. So why am I walking away from this? Because when some chemicals mix they combust and explode.
That fucking bitch is gonna get away with it again.

6/10

Revenge 2.07

Incredible episode. I do wish they showed us less Jack and Amanda, and the bar story, and more Emily Nolan relationship. I do not like Aidan, there is something off about him.

‘You were this close, Mason. But u missed d one thing that’s been right under your nose the whole time. She’s not Amanda Clarke.’ ‘You are.’

‘You and I are already doomed. Let them think we’re laying down, and when the time comes, I say we drag them to hell with us.’

‘I have always been and will continue to be your strongest advocate. So don’t keep secrets. You’ll only have to regret them.’

‘Nolan, your company, everything that you’ve worked for…’ ‘Means nothing if it could potentially hurt the only real family I’ve ever had.’

‘Victoria had nothing to do with what happened to David. It was all me. The man was stealing my wife. I wanted him to feel the same level of pain that he’d inflicted on me.’

‘Shut up! Kneel down! The blindfolds! Put them on. Put them on now!’ ‘I’m sorry, Victoria.’

‘Penance is a sacrifice.A voluntary punishment to show remorse for a sin.The more grievous d sin, the greater the self-inflicted suffering. For some, the ultimate penance is death. But for others, it is simply a means to an end.’

‘To properly do penance, one must express contrition for one’s sins…And perform acts to repair the damage caused by those transgressions.’

‘It is only when those acts are complete that the slate can truly be wiped clean…And amnesty gives way to a new beginning.’

10/10

Bones 8.06

Incredible 9/11 episode.

I spent so much time trying to control my life. I thought it meant that I was strong, but… I was just afraid.
What the hell does that mean?
Some crazy ass white thing.
Follow me.
How can anyone of you do your job, if what you really want is for one of your other team mates to fail.
Every team has a star, my friend.

10/10

Castle 5.07

Espo wanting to kick guy’s ass.
You’re welcome, America. 
This is inappropriate workplace behavior! Our suspect’s alibi hinges on this. Oh. Oh Gates is my new favorite!
More than accommodating.
And Lanie too.
And Sir!
All footage, sir?
Espo singing.
I am starting to like Ryan a bit more this season.

3.5/10

American Horror Story 2.05

Beautifully sickening, but maybe a little over board, a little too much for one episode. I was right who the murder was, and the kiss her lips, I ripped other teeth was an amazing scene. Still I was disappointed that he was the killer.

7/10

Suburgatory 2.05

Slightly better than the previous one, but Tessa’s mother is terribly annoying.

3/10

Go On 1.08

Weakest episode so far. Not really to laugh and I don’t think anyone even likes Jolanda. Everyone dressed as Alice in The Wonderland characters costumes and a new intro.

1/10

X Factor 22.16 and 2.17

Tate Stevens earned the most votes second week in a row and Vino Alan came in third again! Yes, America, yes! Another incredible episode. I was sad to see Lyric 145 go, Simon should have let them stay with hip hop, they were amazing! What is Arin still doing there? I cried when they called Cece’s name and she was all ‘Oh my God’, that was beautiful. Cece is good, Demi just doesn’t know what to do with her. Someone should just tell her to choose songs for her where she can only sing with her amazing high note, not with the lower one, which she sadly cannot do.

Grey’s Anatomy 9.05

Why oh why did he have to die? Please tell me Cristina is not coming back to Minnesota.

‘Sometimes things are simply out of your control. You can’t change them. You can’t bend them to your will. It doesn’t matter if you’re already 45 minutes late, if your hair isn’t brushed, and you haven’t fixed breakfast, and you’re haemorrhaging brain cells by the second while you sit here… Dying… Dying inside.’

Don’t hold your breath. You stop thinking when you stop breathing. Breathe. Please, God, breathe.’

‘Lexie’s dead.’ ‘Yeah… Everyone’s dead.’

Does anybody know what we’re doing now? 30 second dance party. Dance or you’re fired.’

‘You have greatness in you, Yang. Don’t disappoint.’

‘You will be the surgeon of your generation. I knew that as soon as I met you. People will try to diminish you, as they did me. And they will fail.’

‘Do not panic. Don’t panic.’

‘I can’t move. I need to move, but I can’t. I think I may be frozen to this spot. Literally frozen.’

‘Please tell me you’re as miserable as I am.’

‘You’re afraid to fly. You’re not going anywhere.’

‘Look, If I’m going, I want to go down fighting for something that I believe in.’

Please don’t make me strangle you.

I’m not a spoon, I’m a knife and I’m gonna stab you in your eyeball.

I can’t look at you. I can’t look at you either.

Well, you’re in a mood.

Don’t get emotional, just eat it.

Is anybody gonna help me?!

Hands off the patient now! Grey!

Now I know what the end of the world feels like and I don’t wanna feel that again.

You love me more than anybody has in a very long time.

Don’t say this is Lexie. It’s not Lexie.

Thank God I don’t have children, they would be just like you.
Oh come on, I’m your dream come true
That is the truth.

I was trapped under something. You were there. You were there right? I was.

10/10

Dexter 7.06

When you like to kill, you don’t just stop.
Don’t you have more pressing concerns?
Why do you think I need to kill so badly?
Why are you so concerned she’s still a killer?
I know that face.
Mother fucker, you were together, like a couple. I remember having a thought that whoever was doing it, was doing it for love. I was right after Rita died, you had that tenant, with that weird fucking name, Lumen. t was her wasn’t it? It was. Jesus fucking Christ Dexter, you moved your girlfriend into the house where Trinity murdered your wife so you could kill together?
I felt guilty abut what happened to Rita, I thought that maybe if I helped Lumen… I was trying to make things right.
Of course. By murdering five other people.
Why can’t the past just stay in the past, do we have to keep talking about this?
I really need to kill someone.
I wanna take you out.
On a date?
That’ll work.
The girl who stabbed a woman in cold blood.
Just to hold on to the fantasy. No, now I do everything it takes to make sure I don’t lose myself like that again.
I’m just trying to do the right thing.
Do the wrong thing.
I think I burned out Deb. I’m so focused on work that I forgot to have a life.
If you show it to me, I’ll totally make out with you.
Best first date ever.
All of us have some kind of longing. A need crying out to be net. Some of us get what we want, and we’re happy. But some of us are never satisfied.
When I said I wanted to take you out, this is what I meant. This is what keeps me up at night. This is what I long for. This is what I need to fill my emptiness.

American Horror Story 2.03

The kids were playing ‘let’s kill people’ and the faceless man came.

Why are all the nuns there sluts?
Your friend? She’s the reason why you’re in here?
Chloe’s character wants to escape with them.
I admired her purity, her innocence. And that’s gone.
Drunk Jessica’s character introducing the film.
Where’s that God damn Mexican.
There you are, whore.
Where do you think you’re going? Whore.
Now? But the Christians are about to be eaten.
I guess we found a Mexican.
Rape. Oh that’s reach coming from you.
He caught off her legs.
We know what’s in the woods.
She didn’t see it was them trying to escape.

We’ll start treatment first thing in the morning. Lock her up.
She’s gonna be a creature.
Doctor, I have been this way since I can remember. There’s no cure.
I am Anne Frank.
Nobody was safe in Auschwitz.
You killed the thing you loved the most.
I did everything I could think of to survive and then I did everything what I had to do to get out.
What am I? Crazy or sane. Am I a killer?
I don’t care whatever you are. I’ll be with you.
I didn’t know what has gotten into you lately, sister, but It is a decided improvement.
Are you purposely trying to make a killer baby?
Sterilisation for both of you.
Actually I’m gonna ask you to touch yourself .And try to focus on his genitals. Now take your other hand and place it on…
Sara did an incredible job this week.
Keep touching yourself. You’re doing a great work, we’re all routing for you.

8.5/10

Castle 5.06

I’m your number one fan.
How far they fall.
Good to see you.
If only the feeling was mutual.
You should have seen her as Lieutenant Chloe, oh wait, you can.
Kate Beckett! Kate Bex!
Isn’t it fracking awesome?
It’s fracking something.
In your dreams.
Look at my life, my dreams come true.
Detective Beckett and non-detective Castle.
Oh my God, Alexis!
Dad? What are you doing here?
What are you doing here dressed like that?!
Don’t wear clothes?!
Oh I’m embarrassing you? I’m the one who’s dressed.
Didn’t you see what she’s wearing? Not that bad? How am I gonna unsee that?
Castle, she is a fall grown woman.
Yeah, I could probably see you as an elf or a hobbit.
You should have seen the UPS guy, he almost wet himself.
If I wake up bold tomorrow, you’d still be attracted to me? Oh my God, you wouldn’t.
With that pumpkin head, dude.
I completely understand why you hated it., buy , Castle, I also understand why people loved it. It was about leaving home for the first time, about searching for your identity, and making a difference. I loved dressing up. She didn’t care what anybody thought about her and I kinda did at that time. It was like I could be anything and I didn’t have to choose, so don’t make fun, okay?

Bones 8.05

Leather face and Jack the Ripper references!
What kind of freak feels nostalgic over human sacrifices?
This is not why I went to art school.

Now we have to go clean the tub.
Bones dancing.
Admission. Cleansing. Celebrating.

6.5/10

Revenge 2.06

Oh my! Mason knows they switched! I don’t know why I like him so much this season, maybe because of Roger’s recent appearance on SVU?

To successfully create an illusion, the first thing you need is trust. But to perfect an illusion, the false reality must appear as authentic as the one it hides. Careful attention must be paid to every detail. The slightest of imperfections can, like a pin to a balloon, burst the illusion…And the truth behind the illusion becomes revealed.

Suburgatory 2.04

I want you to make me disappear.
If you look up rock bottom in the dictionary, there’s a picture of Evan in a top hat.

SVU 14.03

Those who can’t do, blog.
Taking down rapist. That is ours.
We mixed it up a bit. Sometimes I was on top, sometimes she was.
You could put a diploma on it, porn is porn.
Did you tell anyone?
You know if you keep it locked inside it doesn’t go away.
Then you asked him to stop.
By keeping quiet, you’re giving him power over you.
You were raped.
You told them what he did to you, you confronted him, no one will take that away from you.
I don’t need to rape anyone, thank you. I do fine with volunteers.
Show me how she likes it. Show me how she liked it.
Is this what excites you about sex? Hunting your victim.
SVU is the only unit, where the victim’s word isn’t good enough. You have to prove that a crime was committed.
That’s true. No one asks robbery victims if they wanted it.
Good thing about America, this country loves a comeback.

SVU 14.04

So he brands them, pimps them and kills them.
You want me to sing you guys a song?
Lord No.
Ice T plays a pimp.
Liv and Amanda spent the night together.
Soon, we hope.
Oh, nice.
Amanda and Nick in uniforms, playing taxi cops.
Amanda drinking from that straw.
We’re gonna keep you safe. That’s a promise.
She’s answered an add for a nanny job.
Welcome to America.
They showed me pictures odf my little sister back home. They said their friends would take her if I didn’t do everything they say.
They’re whores, can’t rape a whore.
It’s amazing, you are as stupid as you look.
Your dad called you a fat moron.
Beats me, getting a bikini wac.
SVU takes down Alkaida.
Amanda grabbing a girl, and oh that was so good.
Who do you think I am? I am just a whore.
We can have you ecamined and when we do we’re gonna find out you’re a virgin. Aren’t we?
How can a whore be a virgin?
She can’t.
And you were hid among girls who were being raped, who were inslaved and you let that happen.
I was sorry for them, but there is so many people to be sorry for.
All that time together, two of you, was like we were married.
But you weren’t.

SVU 14.05

Cold case gave up. Just like you did.
I’d love to get over to your unit and see some live bodies for a change.
Nothing’s fair in law and order.
Why? Because he kept looking when you stopped.
Just because he’s crazy, doesn’t mean he’s wrong.
All the flashbacks.

SVU 14.06

Amanda centring episode was amazing. When Liv and Amanda tell the girl her family is still looking for her and we find out her father did not make it, breathtaking.

Greys 9.04

No! Let me go.
You’re suffering.
Yang helped the old guy.
I’m trying.
He had a beard and lived in the woods!
Because when you know who you are, it’s easier to know what you’re about. And ultimately what you really need. It might be hard to admit, but there’s no shame in simply being human. It can be a relief to stop hiding, to accept who you really are and let the world see you that way too. A little self awareness never hurt anyone. Because when you know who you are, it’s easier to know what you’re about, what you really need.
Owen in the woods and Christina’s friends with the old guy!

Private Practice 6.04

Char vomited on a guy and said Welcome to Saint Ambrose.
It never rains in California.
This is Los Angeles it doesn’t rain this time of year.
No it’s all in his head, but he still can’t move his legs.
Sure, don’t mind me, I’ll just push the kid out in a gas station.
Char, you shouldn’t use a mouthwasher right after a puke.
SVU case!
Damn it, Sheldon. You look like James Bond?
Which one?
I was always partial to Sean Connery.
Charlotte and I have already been through so much, the kind of stuff that a lot of couples don’t make it through, but we did. We made it through, and we came out even stronger and even more in love. And you know what that means? It means we are badass.
What did Sam exactly tell you about me?
Absolutely nothing.
I would think the same Sheldon have.
She’s a missing person.
I feel sorry for Stephanie, she seems great, and way too good for Sam.
I am about a hundred years older than I look.
She is not gonna walk through that door.

Revenge 2.05

They say, ‘Let he who is without sin cast the first stone’ and ‘To be without sin requires absolute forgiveness.’ But when your memories are freshly opened wounds, forgiveness is the most unnatural of human emotions.
Victoria, I’m so glad you’re safe.
I wanna see you here in 1 hour!
Should have been there for you, I’m sorry.
Why did you save me, all those years ago?
God, I love the Hamptons.
Mason Tredwell is back!
She didn’t recognise her own daughter!
When I was 5 my mother tried to kill me, she succeeded, actually, she frowned me, my father had to bring me back to life.
Kara telling the fake Amanda that she grew into an amazing woman and Emily listening to it.
What is wrong with you? Conrad proposed.
After everything we’ve been through.
Maybe because of it.
You may be many things but the daughter of Karal Wallace and David Clark is one thing you most definitely are not.

Dexter 8.04

I knew she would think he killed Rita, and that makes me furious.
Are you capable of love?
I have to fucking answer to her skinny ass.
This incredible scene:
And then take her anyway that they wanted. You could hear how much she loved being fucked by all those men. All the things she could do with her mouth, same mouth that she would kiss you with. But be honest you kinda liked it, didn’t you? Were you kind of wishing it was you inside her?
It is not fair of you to ecpose a child to your life…choices. You have to decide your desires or…
You’re like a fucking magnet, bad shit is gonna find you.
You were too late for Rita.
It is not in your control.
Everything is in my control.
Someone needs to protect him from you.
You said it yourself Decter that you cannot stop, you don’t wanna stop.
I miss the I felt on the road. That life was just a beginning. And anything was possible.
But there’s something I can do.
Room filled with all the manequines.
It’s time for everyone to move on.
Fuck! Fuck!
Goodbye friends.
How do you feel?
Glad. What does that make me?
Human.

Dexter  8.05

I did everything in my power to protect her from you, what you really are.
A monster.
You didn’t think she could handle it, because you couldn’t, but Deb is stronger than you are.
Get the fuck away from my desk.
Someone died here, someone I didn’t kill.
I’ll look into this, just fucking relax.
Deb having a breakdown in an elevator.
This is never gonna end, is it?
I don’t give a fuck Dexter.
Obviously you don’t know Dexter, cause this is normal to you., but trust me this is not fucking normal to me. I have already helped you cover up 2 murders, 3, this makes 3, and a fucking bartender, oh my fucking God, oh my God, how did this become my life?
Wow, what a bloodbath.
Fucking God Bless America.
A year ago, I might have been right beside you, following what I thought was right. But the hardest lesson that I’ve learned as lieutenant is knowing where to back the fuck down.
She killed that woman.
I don’t want to be involved in that part of your life.
I don’t want you to be.
I know you’re not gonna stop. But I don’t wanna know about it.

Suburgatory 2.01

So while everyone was cultivating stage 3 of skin cancer, I spent my summer living in a loophole. But like all loopholes, eventually It had to close.
Sorry, guys, loophole closes at 3 am now.
Dad! Dad!
I know you!
Chatswin, bitches.
He hanged the child and then used him to hold his coffee.
Bye Carmen.
Leaving for good.
Bye for good, Carmen.
New George will be hanging out doing your laundry.

Because I like sex, that’s my crime.

Pretty Little Liars Halloween Episode

Night of living preschoolers.
The train party is an intriguing idea.
Oh that girl is creepy.
This is a high school dance.
Oh how Paige came to Spencer’s rescue.
Aria lying in the coffin with dead Gareth, this just got really good, amazing scene.
Paige, thank you.
It was a pleasure. this. this.
Noah all we knew you did this.
I guess we’ve found Ali’s body.
And what the hell was up with the ending.

Factor 2.12 and 2.13

When I finally liked Sister C, Simon eliminated them from the contest. I did not like 1432’s version of Skyscraper, there was something happy in it with should never be. Tate Stevens has to win. Vino Alan needs to be with him in the finale or win. I may have not entirely liked this version of Nickelback, but it was Nickelback, damn it. Judges chose some really bad songs for the first episode live. I liked maybe one or two and was dissapointed with the rest of them. Beatrice Miller is my third favorite, I got a bit emotional when she said she would not think Britney would chose her first over Carly. Diamond should stay, not the guy. I did not like David Correy’s version of Since You’ve Been gone, it was a yell of desperation. I am glad Lyric 123 went through, though the song should be better, but they did rock the house anyway. I really liked Emblem 3’s song at the auditions, I even catch myself singing it, but then I stopped liking them, and now I am not a fan, but I see why they went through. Is it just me or did the only good hair Demi chose is for herself? All the other girls just looked better in their natural hair styles. Cece should not have let Demi choose a song where she has to sing with her lower voice. Paige, I did not like the performance, it was way too much. I like her voice though. Am I happy with the eliminations? Not with the groups and not with the teens, young adults maybe as well, I might have kicked Paige out. Or in this case I think Cece, cause she will make it later, even if she gets eliminated next episode, she is determined enough, and Willie, people will forget about him and his incredible country voice. The over 25? I’m happy with the elimination.

Private Practice 6.03

What stage of grief are you in?
Addie crying over Mark.
We’re not people.
Where’s daddy? I wanna see daddy!
Lucas not getting Pete’s dead.
Some people get angry when they feel they didn’t get what they deserved, for others it comes from fear, or vulnerability or guilt can also be a trigger.
Tell me Lucas is not autistic.
Violet crying over guy’s story.
That would be a nightmare for a normal woman, and she’s Charlotte.
My husband. I’m mourning his loss, but I hate him. My husband is in the ground, covered in dirt, and… I hate him.
You know what they say about grief having five stages?There’s way more.
Addison, anyone you enter into a relationship with is gonna have a history. You are your past. Own it.
I did the wrong thing, and now I need you to help me to fix it. I… if I don’t tell him,  don’t know what to say. What do I say? Help me, Sheldon. I know you’re right. I know. But if I tell him, he is screwed. If I don’t tell him, I’m screwed. I…ah, damn it. I mean, any other time, I… I’m off my game. Otherwise I would never… What do I do?
You have to stop seeing this patient, so just– just walk away, Violet.
It’s okay. You can replace Pete.
Ever since…You know, after I was raped… he was always there for me. Here at the hospital, Pete… was like my work husband. You know, if he was getting a cup of coffee for himself, he’d get one for me. He’d wait the extra ten minutes it took me to sign off the ER board so we could eat lunch together. He looked out for me. I miss that. I miss him. I can’t imagine what this feels like for you.
Oh, I’m okay. I mean, I have to be, because I have a little boy at home who doesn’t know where his father is. He keeps asking me, and I keep coming up with new ways of explaining it, but it… it feels like I’m living with someone with dementia. I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve told him, and… and every time, it feels like I’m lying, because I don’t understand it myself. And Lucas is just a 3-year-old boy… who wants to know when he’s gonna see his father again.
Hey, if you kill someone, how do you make it right? I…I didn’t kill Pete. obviously. This is a… this is a hypothetical.
Well, in AA, making amends is essential. But sometimes the other party is gone or they refuse to forgive us, so we practice living amends.
What is that? How do you do that?
Uh, well, you live the best life that you can, do good where you can, help people when you can, be of service, try to save lives. You… can’t change what you’ve done, but you can change who you are and improve your life. It’s hard to explain why living amends work, but they do. Somehow they just… set you free.
Between him and Pete, I’m sad all the time, and it’s probably not the best thing to be hiding in the bathroom crying.
Yes, we both have screwed up all of our relationships, which is why I’m telling you maybe you should do this one differently.
Are you doing it differently?
I’m…
Charlotte sleeping and Coop running.
You’re not fine. Charlotte! You are not fine. Do you know that Pete went running, and no one could find him, and he was dead, that you were here late one night and somebody attacked you in your own office? And I’m supposed to protect you. I’m supposed to protect our children. That is my job. And I can’t do it if you’re not gonna let me. You are not fine, so I’m not fine.
From the moment he was diagnosed, my father was a dead man walking. And he mourned his death for years. He gave up. It was the most depressing thing I’d ever seen, and… I don’t want that to happen to me.
Violet snapped during therapy.
This is my stuff. I’m going through something, and I… and I lost sight of… I let my needs blend with yours, and… and that was wrong. I was wrong.
You are already doing it. You are living your life differently, better. You are living your amends, being a better person, and that will set you free.
Violet, In the beginning, everyone’s there. But people forget. You know, life goes on, or it goes on for everyone else even if it’s not going on for you. I just wanted to make sure that…
Thank you.
My past is ugly. It’s messy and unflattering, and… So if you don’t think you can trust me anymore or you think I’m a horrible person because I’m a cheater… If you want to go, you should… go.
First of all, thank you for telling me the truth. I know that was hard. Second, you are not a cheater. You are a person who once cheated, and there’s a difference. The third thing I want to say is that, I’m sorry.
You’re sorry?
A man you loved… died. I’m sorry for your loss.
I am a therapist, so I am supposed to know how these things work. I’ve counselled people through the five stages of grief. You wish you could just go down the list, check him off, know what’s coming next, but, uh, they don’t really come in any particular order. Some people never experience any of them. Some people get stuck in one for a long time. My son is 3, and he doesn’t understand what’s going on. Intellectually, I get that, but every time he asks, “where’s daddy?” I have to remember to breathe. It’s always the same thing. I tuck him in. I say “I love you,” he says, “I love you,” and then he says “where’s daddy?” And I tell him again. I’d almost gotten used to it. But last night was different.
I love you.
I love you, too, mommy. I love you, too, daddy.
My son has reached acceptance. He knows his father’s never coming back… and it breaks my heart.

Dexter 7.02

Another brilliant episode. Will update the quotes when work lets me.

Dexter 7.03

No matter what we do, there’s always another body.
It’s not cheating if you pay for it.
Gym, ha? Lying little shit.
Christ on a fucking cracker, Dexter.
It’s a capital offence to be who you are, Dexter.
Dexter pretending to be praying. Holding a flower and picking up his head.
But you already have Deb, dozens of times. All the murderers I’ve helped you catch, who got brought down because of my hunches. My lizard brain. has been your secret weapon all along, you just didn’t know it.
You’re fucking with my head.
Don’t fuck with me on this or I swear, I’ll take us both down.
That’s exactly what I’m doing, killing time.
And sometimes there is nothing more exiting than getting back what you had and lost.
How Deb really talks about Dexter.
If you knew there was a murderer out there and you could do something to stop him before he killed again, could you let it go?
Kiss my ass, you Ginger freak.
Who is Dexter Morgan?
Thank you for fucking up my evening, bro.
The attack scene and how Deter saved Deb.
I get it, what you do, I hate it, but I get it.
So you accept it?
I understand it. I understand that it might be, might be unnecessary evil. But what I don’t understand are the blood slides, they’re trophies. On some lever, Dexter you like to kill.
I like the way it makes me feel.
Deb, I can’t change who I am.
Deb, I’m still your brother, nothings has changed.
Everything\s changes. I don’t know id I can ever be the same again.
I’m finally out of my cage, but freedom comes with a cost.

Go On 1.06

You think I’m fucking Jolanda?!
Bring us the handsome one.
So boring! For me it was cheese, slices, wedges, cubes…
You’re eating has a compulsive quality that is troubling and could open the getaway to other obsessive behaviours.
I am not grief eating.
Did I hear grief eating?
Each bite matters and and tastes like love.
Well you could start….
Don’t say get a pizza.
Are we allowed to order pizza in here?
Yeah, we’re gonna be weird.
I made up a place where everything is happy and peaceful and safe.
The problem is that you’re eating.
I respect Lauren, so I put up with the touchy, feely thing but I’m not looking for the amateur from the b team.
Shut up, junkie, you’re out of control.
Next time, instead of reaching for that brownie, or that ice stuffing, try delicious cup of water.
Dude, we heard your show, all 4000 calories of it.
Carrot cake, which is practically a salad.
I am not in denial. Maybe eating a bit more lately, if you want to put a label on it, call me a foodie.
She’s gay for Salma Hayek and she did child beauty pageants.
Junior high section could use a little rounding up.
Left breast came in first.
The music taste is terrible. The virginity story, very strong.
The puke story is good.
You guys are great. I hope my life goes to hell so I can sign up and do this more.
Of course, I love him.
Not as much as a snickers bar.
That’s…that’s the best candy!
It’s okay, you can be the crazy one for once.
I had a little problem with eating too much. I didn’t hide from it. I gave up junk food.
Give it up Danny, give up loserville.
All right, yes, I grief it. I get sad and food makes that go away.
But it always comes back, doesn’t it?
Starts off so innocently, and the next thing you know, Chinese people are giving you 7 sets of.
Good news it, you’re not alone.
What do I do though, I can’t stop.
Maybe you’re not ready to stop just yet.
Happy Birthday, Timmy.
Who’s Timmy?
Some cry baby.
Let the healing begin.
It’s calorie aversion therapy.
The night before I stopped smoking, I made myself smoke four packs of cigarettes. You’re gonna make the same with food.
And I thought, this is the cutest, craziest, most stubborn person I’ve ever met, and all of a sudden, I needed her.
That must be hardest story for you to tell.
No, it’s my favorite story to tell.
If you don’t know, you know. You know?

10/10

Go On 1.07

Are there teams? Cause I call Ryan, Lauren and anyone except Mr. K. We’re all God’s children, but I’m in it to win it and there’s something wrong with you.
I know he’s mocking what we do, but it’s memorizing.
This is mess.
You’re uncultured birthday ass.
Felt good to be Ryan, tough to be back.
Did you send everyone away so you could seduce me?
What’s that?
Mr Kay and Anne dancing.
Don’t look back.

Bones 8.04

Bones makes the guy throw up.
Hodgins always super into his job.
Guy swallowed victims tooth.
Bones wants to run for the president.
When I’m the president…
Hodings talking about faeces the same way I talk about TV Shows and films.
Sweets, you do know they put bones on that table?
We’re both extremely skilled.
FBI skilled.
It’s like you never studied psychology at all.
I actually felt bad for Daisy.

Castle 5.02

Guy punched Espo and Ryan in face.
I’ve seen enough episodes of Law and Order to know how this works.
Castle and Kate talking behind guys back in front of him.
Where you’ve been?
Beckett all running and guys looking at her.
What does that supposed to mean?
Beckett’s all what the fuck.
Guy’s all call me maybe.
It’s what parters do right.
She just keeps on coming?

Castle 5.03

Castle’s mother knows.
The opening. Let’s paint with blood.
She could have left a more helpful note.
Who said that you can answer my phone?
2 grant and he’ll name a character in his nect novel after your mom.
What the hell is that? Who’s junk is this and what the hell is it doing in my precinct?
It’s Castle’s sir.
Oh, oh, good one.
Castle broke the dolls.
This is me killing you softly.

Revenge 2.02

For those who believe in resurrection… Death is inconsequential. It is not an ending, but rather a new beginning… A second chance. A reunion. But the very idea of resurrection is so seductive a concept, it’s easy to forget… before you can rise from the dead… You have to spend a few days in hell.

This is why you shouldn’t fall asleep watching horror movies.
I fell asleep monitoring Victoria.
Exactly.

The good news is, your daughter’s a drug addict and you’re already dead. That makes you both damn easy to dispose of.

What now, revenger?
Let the punishment fit the crime. Victoria took my mother away from me. It’s time I took her daughter away from her.

I don’t think my employees have any respect for me.
Why would they? You’re not wearing pants.
Well, I mean, they don’t know that.

Keep an eye on Victoria. Let me know if anything changes.
Ooh, monster movie marathon. Can’t wait.

It’s unfortunate I have to do this, but my daughter’s self-destruction has forced my hand.

I just got off the phone with our family lawyer. He said you testified to Charlotte’s mental incompetence.
Your sister is a very sick girl.
No, what’s sickening is how far you and my father went to pull this scam. Not that you’re a stranger to abuse of power. Now whatever he’s paying you for your lies, believe me, it won’t offset the lawsuit I’ll slap on you unless you get on the phone to Judge Morris and recant that evaluation immediately.

It turns out, Dad was keeping you in here in order to get his hands on your inheritance.
I knew it. You stopped him?
I found out too late, but I promise, I’m gonna get it all back for you, every penny.
I swore at Mom’s memorial I was clean, and you did nothing to stop them.

Why would you raise somebody else’s kid? I mean, if it’s yours, great. Obviously, we’ll manage. But if it’s not… Our world is falling apart around us. We don’t need the extra burden. I mean, you tell me that you wouldn’t be a little bit relieved.

Dad had a judge declare me mentally unfit.
Oh, that pig is even more despicable than I ever imagined.
It’s gonna be okay, though. It’s only money…
Sunshine and happy thoughts aren’t going to get us through this, Charlotte. We need that money to survive.

Oh, God. Don’t tell me that your brother impregnated Emily Thorne.

Is Victoria’s heart still beating?
Was it ever?

You’re right, Charlotte.It was never about us. My plan was always to leave everything behind, you included. I only needed you to access the account. If you want to spend the summer with Amanda Clarke, go ahead. Let her be your family now.
You really are a monster, aren’t you?
Go on. And whatever happens, don’t come back here!
Tragic. Victoria pushing Charlie away|to save her? Bittersweet victory, Ems.

Oh. Huh. Well, you look different in 3D.
We all do.

But, uh… Could you turn around?
Need to put some pants on.

Who the hell is this?
Conrad, it’s Victoria.
Is this some kind of a joke?
Oh, you wish.
The next few moments are going to be the most important seconds of your miserable life. You are going to do exactly as I say, or I will haunt you all the way to your last pathetic day on earth.

So it’s true. Even the devil himself didn’t want you.
The only devil here is you. And don’t pretend for one moment that you didn’t try to murder me.
Oh, is that the story you’re telling yourself? I tried to save your life. I warned you not to get onto that plane.
You simply failed to tell me why.
Are you telling me you would’ve listened?

So what’s next?
Hit me. This is your one and only shot, so do it like a man, if it’s even possible.
Oh, dear. Nothing would give me greater pleasure.

Please tell me it’s really his.
Sorry.
I wish I could. I…I don’t know how to thank you.

I went to the bank and opened up a new trust account for you… one that Dad can’t touch. I transferred everything I own into it, including my half of the inheritance. You can even have my car if you want it.
What? Why are you doing this?
‘Cause when you were born, Mom made me promise to be nice to you, and I don’t want to let her down.

Conrad’s face when they enter the house and see Victoria.

But I don’t understand how you let him get away. Your men were on him. They’re still searching the area.
It’s a miracle what this woman can endure.
Son of a bitch.

Daniel. Oh, my God. My darling. Oh!
Charlotte? Sweetheart. This was the only way.
How is this even possible? What happened to you?
Your mother was abducted the night of the plane crash.
You were kidnapped?
And ransomed.

The man who I arranged to have us disappear… He was lethal.
When the money fell through, he turned on me. And as far as your father knows, you know nothing, and that’s the way it has to stay.
Got it.
Now what about Emily Thorne? How much did you tell her?
Everything I knew. But we can trust her, Mom.
Bring her to me immediately.

I was doing everything in my power to meet her abductor’s incessant demands. But it, uh, it bled me dry. Depleted almost all my accounts… And my daughter’s.
Are you saying that’s what happened to Charlotte’s inheritance?
Tonight was to be the final payment.
Why? Why didn’t you tell me? This whole time, you knew the truth? You could have at least told me my mother was alive.
My top priority was to protect her life. If I told you or anyone, Daniel…
You don’t understand what this man is capable of. He took down that plane. He killed poor Lydia.

How did this happen?
I’m still trying to figure that out. All I know is, she did not want to leave without me. I think this was her only way of getting out of hiding so we can be together. Emily, I told my mom we can trust you. Well, can we? Will you keep our secret? I know you must think my family’s crazy. But they’re my family, and I need my mother.
May I speak with her?
Mother?
Victoria. What an interesting turn of events.
Charlotte told me what a good friend you were to her after I was taken, and… I wanted to thank you.
Well, I did what anyone would do under the circumstances. I just wanted you to know that if you need anything, anything at all, I’ll be here all summer.
Thank you for what you did for Charlotte today. Well, obviously, I had no idea this is how it would all turn out.
Obviously.
You’ve been a good friend… To the family, Charlotte especially. Look, I know you and my mother have never gotten along, but, uh…
Well, tragedy has a way of bringing people back together.
Daniel.
You should go. Be with them.

Okay, in my defence, there is no way anyone could’ve seen that coming.
So is Charlotte moving in?
No.
She’s up at her house, celebrating her mother’s second coming.
Oh, victory, Victoria.
I told Amanda that I fixed the results… That Jack isn’t the father.
You lied to her? Ems… That’s dark, even for you.

You might want to turn on the TV.
We are confirming Victoria Grayson, who was thought to have died over two months ago in a private plane crash, was found earlier today.
No way.
Sources say Grayson was abducted and restrained here in this remote cabin. Her captor is still at large.
Looks like the bitch is back.

For those who believe in the resurrection, death is inconsequential. In the resurrection, those that were dead live, and those who live believe they shall never die.

Goodbye, Amanda. I’m sorry it has to end this way.

10/10

Revenge 2.03

You want head or legs?
Head.
Victoria tells the world Charlotte is David’s daughter.
And asks Amanda to come to the stage.
Guy choking Nolan.
Queen Victoria and her family.
Oh my God they’re stronger than ever.
Who is David Clark?
Takeida telling Emily she has to close her heart.
God Gordon, please be okay. I love you.

4.5/10

Nashville 1.01

The daughter from the trailer were better than these.
She’s sleeping around cause her mother is a drunkie.
You can kiss my decision as it’s waling out the door.
Will not be following it, unless I hear there is some good music.

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!

– Joanne

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)

‘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)

‘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?’

‘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)

‘Olive, will you forgive me?’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)
