Quotes Of The Week: Succession, Grey's, Wheel Of Time, Ghosts, NCIS And More
Just as all good things must come to an end, TVLine's Quotes of the Week feature is wrapping up for the calendar year.
Next Sunday, as part of our 2021 in Review festivities, we'll be revisiting the most memorable Quotes of the Year. Until then, though, we've got one more compilation of bon mots and zingers to share from the past seven days of television.
This time around, our 15-plus sound bites include a nod to The Neighborhood's meta casting choice, a romantic speech on Grey's Anatomy that went right over Link's head, Bela's not-so-secret crush on a certain TV detective on The Sex Lives of College Girls, and one of many testosterone-fueled confrontations during The Bachelorette's Men Tell All episode.
Also featured in this week's roundup: double doses of Yellowstone (read Episode 6 recap), Insecure (read Episode 7 post mortem) and Ghosts (who received Performer of the Week kudos?).
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!

GREY'S ANATOMY
"What if all the crap that we went through is just the middle part of the story, the part you have to go through to find your happily ever after... because when two people have been there for each other over and over through the worst that humanity has to offer, don't they deserve to be happy?"
"You're right. Jo, you're right. I've been holding onto a fairy tale, and it doesn't have to be that. I love... Amelia, and I'm so deeply in love with her, I can wait. We don't have to get married now. I just need her, right?"
