So yeah, the dialog on this show hasn't exactly been the greatest, but we still should have a quotes thread if only to keep track of all the cheesy dialog exchanges. But the writers are capable of some good lines (like the thread title) so I'm not giving up hope yet.

Some to start us off with:

Sarah: "Adults are talking!"

Jaime: "Bring it bitch!' (that was was just so lame it was funny)

we should form a union

"I'm about to go analog on your ass."

I can't remember the exact quote from Sarah about how she couldn't feel emotion, but it made me laugh. She has some good lines.

Sarah: "It was like a ride at Disneyworld." (re: causing the accident that smashed up Jaime).

Lovesick Ass, for you:

"Where are you going Sarah?"
"I'm gonna lay down on the sidewalk and die."
"You don't have to be so dramatic."
"Don't I? 'Cause I thought I was just told by the one person who could save my life that she's got better things to do; that feels pretty dramatic to me. Not that I can actually feel anything but I can intellectually imagine that that feels... pretty dramatic."

Gah, thank you, Neka, for typing out that quote because that was my favorite Corvusism she's uttered so far. That exchange was hilarious. Katee is love.

Heh. On a show full of bad dialogue, that was my favorite.

“I’ll call Hillary Clinton. She can get to the bottom of this!”

One of those WTH (who the hell) is writing this!

"$50 million and you didn't think we'd put in a GPS?"

I think this should become Jonas' "thing," like McCoy's "I'm a doctor, not a (whatever)." So every week Jonas can say, "$50 million and you didn't think we'd put in (a whatever)?"

Then we'd get the added thrill of seeing him demonstrate the "whatever" (jumper cables, Pocket Fisherman, milk frother, Pez dispenser, change machine), much to Jaime's horror.

Quite possibly the best delivery of any line on the show thus far.


"Why don't you hang yourself or something?!"

Coming from a girl who is incredibly sweet in real life, Katee was scary with that line! And made me laugh my ass off at the same time.

It really was considering what a mouthful and flurry of words that particular bit of dialog was. I just loved everything about it. Katee just delivered that perfectly and made me a hopeless fangirl.

I know its standard dialogue, but

"Canada has an army?"

still made me laugh.

Does anybody remember the exact quote about the window mouldings in the apartment building? Next to the "feels dramatic" speech, that was my favorite part.


ETA: I found it on the NBC website.

(Talking about the windows)
Becca: Yeah, I mean, you don't see mouldings like this everywhere.
Sarah: Great mouldings, great mouldings. [looking at Jaime] Do you love the mouldings?

If you have a minute to kill go to the online episode and pick "Episode 3" and then click "Chapter 5" and drag the progress bar to 38:40.

The expression KS is sporting kills me.

Two lines I enjoyed from tonight's ep:

Sarah Corvus's line to Ruth about the glass house and the curtains. I don't remember the exact wording.

And I liked MR's line delivery in the airplane scene: "Hunk of metal flying through the air. Counterintuitive?" or something like that. There was something kind of adorable about how she said "counterintuitive."

"Whoa tiger! That's your bionic arm!"

So awful! Love how lame this show is. I think that's the new catch phrase. Goodbye handshake with a friend? "Whoaa! Easy easy tiger. That's your bionic arm." Someone passes the salt to you during a meal. "Whoa whoa tiger! That's your bionic arm!"

Ruth: People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
Sarah: Or have sex without curtains. Me, I like throwing stones. It wakes people up.

Bwah! Too funny.


Was I the only one laughing and wondering WTF? at the same time? Because that entire exchange made no sense to me. Maybe it didn't make sense to Sarah, either, thus the nonsensical response.

I forgot to mention Sarah's dialogue at the poker game when Jae shows up.

Rough approximation of the actual lines:
"He's my boyfriend. We have an on-again off-again relationship. You know what with me killing those people and him shooting me in the head." Great dead-pan delivery.
