Dialogue in TV shows and movies

2019-06-12

So, I’ve analyzed a number of TV shows and movies and found 40 common lines of dialogue that I listed below. If we banned all of them, we could spend more time looking at the pretty pictures and listening to the soundtrack.

  2. For what?
  3. I’m sorry.
  4. There’s nothing to be forgiven.
  5. It’s not your fault, stop blaming yourself.
  6. I didn’t tell you because I was afraid.
