Before the sweltering June heat gets underway, TVLine is serving up one final May edition of our cool Quotes of the Week column.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In our list below \u2014 which rounds up the best sound bites of the past seven days \u2014 you’ll find nearly a dozen shows represented, including “Marshals,” “Rick and Morty,” “For All Mankind,” “Star City,” “The Four Seasons,”\u00a0“Euphoria,” and “The Testaments.”<\/p>\n

Also featured in this week’s roundup: “Summer House” drops bars at the Season 10 reunion, “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” gets biblical, and “Pop Culture Jeopardy!” pokes fun at the fashion on “Emily in Paris.” Plus, we’ve got a double dose of “Widow’s Bay” and a rare triple dose from the “Hacks” series finale.<\/p>\n
