Finalist Bryan Olesen shares some of the fan mail he’s received online
JEOPARDY! MASTERS
“The Cinque Ports (‘5 harbors’) of Southeast England include Dover and this one famous for an 11th century battle.”
“What is Hastings, as in Spencer Hastings, played by Troian Bellisario on Pretty Little Liars?”
“…Yeah, I guess.”
No one, least of all Ken Jennings, was prepared for Yogesh Raut to drop this PLL reference in the Jeopardy! Masters finale
DAYS OF OUR LIVES
“I didn’t go to my prom either. I only have movies as a reference, so this could either be magical or…”
“…an absolute horror show.”
“Let’s just hope there aren’t any telekinetic kids who want to exact their revenge.”
“Theresa, this is Salem — they’re probably everywhere.”
Brady (Eric Martsolf) and Theresa (Emily O’Brien) may be joking, but if any show is going to give us a Carrie moment in 2024, it’s Days
THE GOOD DOCTOR
“I wanted to help people, and save lives, and I wanted to make a lot of money so I could buy a television. But because of Dr. Glassman, I have much more than that: I have many friends, I have a family… and I have two televisions.”
Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore) has a lot of Weather Channel viewing in his future

Angie’s (Erika Christensen) voice cracks — and her heart instantly breaks — when Will places her under arrest, effectively nixing any chance of a future together
EVIL

Kristen (Katja Herbers) scares Leland with a preview of what taking care of an infant (even if it is, allegedly, the antichrist) is going to be like
THE CHALLENGE: ALL STARS

A POI’s WhatsApp conversations check all the boxes for Jubal (Jeremy Sisto)
ELSBETH
“I’m establishing my brand of sustainably sourced beauty and office supplies. My team has developed responsible, personal products for working women, like combination nail polish and staple remover.”
Sounds like model Nadine (Laura Benanti) is not onto something
ABBOTT ELEMENTARY
“Erika, let me introduce you to my emotionally unavailable, fiscally irresponsible, racially ambiguous, well-chained friend Simon. [Leans in to whisper] He owns a condo he can’t afford.”
“S’up, girl?”
“[Smiles] Ooh, you hold right there, young, ethnic Adam Sandler.”
Janine (Quinta Brunson) plays matchmaker with her friend Erika (Courtney Taylor) and her former district colleague Simon (Benjamin Norris)
ABBOTT ELEMENTARY (Bonus Quote!)
“I fixed your light.”
Gregory (Tyler James Williams), making us swoon with small home repairs before planting a big kiss on Janine

Even with Coop’s (Bre-Z) encouragement, Patience (Chelsea Tavares) can’t get on board with her mock trial wardrobe

“Um… I believe the term I used was ‘freak in the sheets.’”
Chen (Melissa O’Neil) asks Bradford (Eric Winter) about his sessions with sus shrink Blair
THE ROOKIE (Bonus Quote!)
“I need total immunity!”
“That’s not gonna happen. You’re directly responsible for a deadly attack on police officers. You would have to give us the equivalent of Hannibal Lecter or Pablo Escobar to skate on that.”
Wes (Shawn Ashmore) spells out Blair’s legal situation for her. (Also, he knows Hannibal Lecter isn’t real, right? Because some people don’t…)
GREY’S ANATOMY
“I have a tiny crush on you. But you know what? I’m hot, I’m single, I’m a damn doctor. You’re… you’re like a cold. I have it, I’ll get over it, and then it’ll be like it never happened.”
Methinks Jules (Adelaide Kane) doth protest too much about Blue — and we love it!
STATION 19
“Let’s make sure everything is 100-percent tight and ready.”
“Tight and ready?”
“At least take me to dinner first.”
Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz) orders wildfire prep that leaves Vic (Barrett Doss) and Travis (Jay Hayden) cracking wise

Lange (Colin Donnell) wants to know who Not Angela Cassidy really is
THE CHI
“We good. Just be careful.”

HACKS (Episode 7)
“You’re making Damian work on Christmas?”
“He doesn’t celebrate Christmas! He’s a Jehovah’s Witness, that’s why I hired him. He doesn’t do holidays, birthdays, it’s fantastic. You need to get religion to work for you when you’re trying to get around labor laws… write that down!”
“I don’t think you want that paper trail.”
Ava (Hannah Einbinder) reminds Deborah (Jean Smart) to keep her labor law tactics on the down-low
HACKS (Episode 8)
“Which minority group is upset?”
“OK, not great that you have to ask that. And also, I don’t think ‘minority’ is the proper term anymore.”

“Oh, I thought everybody was ‘they’ now!”
“That’s a different thing!”
Ava (Einbinder) and Deborah’s (Smart) back-and-forths continue to endlessly entertain
