Richard Hammond: Oh my word! [laughing] Oh-Hoh-Hoh-Hoh! I mean, this is a four door saloon car, but it sounds magnificent. It’s just got so much style. I don’t care what it’s flaws are. I don’t car if it picks it’s nose or farts in bed. I love this thing.” [in reference to the Aston Martin Rapide]
British to American Translation: saloon car = sedan
series = season (more or less)
Eliot Spencer: You feelin’ confident?
Alec Hardison: Nooot really.
Eliot: Good, ’cause over confidence will kill you faster than a bullet any day. Fear is good.
Hardison: Oh, I have fear, and doubt, and really serious regrets. I should be fine.
Eliot: Alright. Get ready then.
Nathan Ford: No. You are emotionally involved. It leads to bad decisions.
Alec Hardison: I’m sorry. Did you just say that? With a straight face?
Nate: Not helpful. Not helpful at all.
Alec Hardison: Ok. Fine. I, ah, just, ah, think I should keep an eye on you.
Parker: Keep an eye on me?
Hardison: Well, not you. You and Eliot. It’s a dangerous mountain. There could be some polar bear or some ill tempered Eskimos. Like….
Alec Hardison: Age of the geek, Baby!
Chapman: You said you didn’t like guns.
Eliot Spencer: I don’t. [unloads clip into Chapman] I never said I couldn’t use them.
Josh Gates: Mike, remind me again why we’re out in the middle of China in the freezing cold and the rain.
Mike Morrell: Because fortune and glory. We want the fame, the money, and the women.
Josh: You think if I find a Yeren I’ll get more girls?
Mike: Nobody’s better at almost finding monsters than us.
Josh: That is true.
There we go. Like a night at the cottage. Except that I have no food, no friends, and no beer.
