Quotes Of The Week: Legacies, S.W.A.T., Girls5eva, The Rookie, Flash And More
After you've sufficiently doted on the maternal figures in your life this Mother's Day — and only after that! — it's time to scroll through our latest batch of Quotes of the Week.
In the list below, we've compiled more than two dozen of the week's best TV sound bites, including moments both scripted and unscripted from broadcast, cable and streaming series.
This time around, we've got a contentious baby name debate on The Rookie, some tough love for the recently reunited members of Girls5eva, Drew's uncontainable excitement for proper kidney function on B Positive and a feces-related conversation between two Real Housewives of New York City from which we simply couldn't look away.
Also featured in this week's roundup: double doses of Mythic Quest, Legends of Tomorrow (read season premiere post mortem), Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, S.W.A.T. and Grey's Anatomy, plus dialogue from Young Rock, NCIS, Bob's Burgers and more series.
