Tuesdays on HuluOliver Putnam Quotes
Loretta: I love that little snort you do.
Oliver: You do?
Loretta: Yeah, I do. You're like an adorable little piglet.
Loretta: Family tradition. When I was a girl, whenever I'd lost a tooth, my mom'd take me out on the Mississippi River on the ferry boat and when we got underneath the bridge we'd throw the tooth overboard and make a wish.
Oliver: The tooth fairy can swim? Tooth fairy... tooth ferry. Yeah. OK, OK, now I get it.
Loretta: It's really corny.
Oliver: It's been a while since I dipped my quill in a woman's ink pot. Any new rules I should know about?
Mabel: Please don't make me take the next one.
Oliver: Kimber's one of the few cast members who can actually sing.
Charles: I take offense to that.
Oliver: That was my intention.
Oliver: This is not my best day as a director. That was in 1988 when I got my Tony. Tony was a dog I owned. Yes, I did choose that name to confuse people.
Loretta: I love how all of your stories always end miles from where you start.
Oliver: What do I have to do to get people to see what I see? Can you help me?
Loretta: No, I'm afraid not. [Chuckles] What about this one?
Oliver: This one? The Nanny's Lullaby?
Loretta: Oh, what? No. Come on, Oliver that is good.
Oliver: I promised Donna Oliver Putnam, meaning big and loud
Loretta: Yeah, I think we all know that you are more than just loud. What I love about Oliver Putnam's shows is that underneath all the bombast of the chaos and the breeding crabmen, It's just there's a vulnerability. That's what makes Oliver Putnam special ... as a director.
Oliver: I'm gonna make it goddamnit. That's right, folks. It's a musical. Get ready for Death Rattle: Dazzle. What are you doing with that?
Mabel: The cops got it wrong. We think that Ben's killer is someone in your show, which means we're back!
Howard: We thank you for your attention. Brief anecdote. I remember when I auditioned for Mr. Oliver Putnam for this very play.
Oliver: True.
Howard: Do you remember what you said to me, Oliver?
Oliver: I sure do, I said. How about you be my assistant instead?
Howard: That's right. Word for word.
