Quotes Of The Week: Fantasy Island, Chicago Fire, 1923, Big Sky And More

The year on the calendar may have changed, but our weekly appreciation for TV's best dialogue certainly hasn't.

Every Sunday, we recognize television's most memorable sound bites from the past seven days via our Quotes of the Week compilation — and you can find more than a dozen bon mots from broadcast, cable and streaming series in our first 2023 edition below.

This time around, we've got a Fantasy Island anecdote that sounds outlandish but is actually quite true, a stern word of warning for a Chicago P.D. cop, a new medical phenomenon coined by Abbott Elementary's Ava, and a Real Housewives of Miami incident involving — what else? — a goat in a diaper.

Also featured in this week's roundup: double doses of Yellowstone's winter finale and Ginny & Georgia's sophomore season, plus quotable moments from Gossip Girl, The Challenge, Kaleidoscope 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!
