Quotes Of The Week: Star Trek, Flash, The Circle, Girls5eva, Survivor And More

Netflix's The Circle and Peacock's Girls5eva were among this week's returning series, and their first episodes back instantly earned a spot in our Quotes of the Week compilation.

In the list below, we've gathered nearly 20 of television's most memorable sound bites from the past seven days, including moments both scripted and unscripted from broadcast, cable and streaming series.

This time around, we've got a shortsighted reaction from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Capt. Pike, a poignant epiphany for Station 19's Andy, a strange talent that we didn't know The Wilds' Fatin possessed, and a (literally) puzzling explanation of the game of Survivor, courtesy of Maryanne.

Also featured in this week's roundup: double doses of The Flash (read our post mortem with [Spoiler]) and The Circle (read Season 4 premiere recap), plus quotable moments from Grey's Anatomy, Fear the Walking Dead, We Own This City 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!

SURVIVOR

"The way that I see it, it's kind of like Survivor Jenga, right? Where it's like, OK, I need to take a piece out, but that piece is going to come back into play. But what happens if I take a bottom piece too early? Will everything fall? Do I have to then take that piece later? Do I want to take that piece because I think someone else wants that piece, so I stop them from having that piece so I can have that piece?"
