Quotes Of The Week: Riverdale, Evil, Bachelor In Paradise, AHS And More
The unofficial end of summer is upon us, but we're not done celebrating summer television just yet.
On the contrary, our latest Quotes of the Week compilation features 15-plus sound bites from the past seven days of TV, including moments both scripted and unscripted from broadcast, cable and streaming series.
This time around, we've got an understandable moniker mix-up on DC's Stargirl, a recap of Archie's packed résumé on Riverdale, James Holzhauer's dig at a certain Emmy-nominated comedy on The Chase and a highly regrettable word uttered during Evil's (mostly) silent episode.
Also featured in this week's roundup: double doses of Big Brother and Bachelor in Paradise, plus quotable moments from American Horror Story: Double Feature, Only Murders in the Building, Roswell, New Mexico and more shows.
Scroll through the list below to see all of our picks for the week, then hit the comments and tell us if we missed any of your faves!
