Quotes Of The Week: Futurama, Witcher, Good Omens, The Afterparty And More
We've got another blast from television's past in our latest Quotes of the Week column, courtesy of Hulu's brand-new Futurama episodes. (First Justified, now Futurama... maybe we are back in 2013.)
In the list below, we've gathered more than a dozen of television's most memorable sound bites from the past seven days, including moments both scripted and unscripted from broadcast, cable and streaming series.
On the non-revival front, we've got quotable moments from series like The Afterparty, Good Omens, The Witcher, Secret Invasion and The Walking Dead: Dead City (grade the freshman finale). Plus, this week's roundup features double doses of The Righteous Gemstones (freshly renewed for Season 4!) and The Summer I Turned Pretty.
