If you miss Schitt’s Creek and Alexis Rose as much as we do, you’ll love the journey that these Alexis Rose quotes take you on.

Alexis Rose completely captured my attention right from the opening scene of Schitt’s Creek, and I only grew more enamored with her as the series continued. The obsession may have began with her nonsensical over-the-top facial expressions, the way her hands are inexplicably always travelling closer to her shoulders, and the fact that Annie Murphy is about as stunning as they come, but it blossomed with her hilarity, intelligence, and unmatched confidence.

It’s those things that make Alexis Rose of Schitt’s Creek so much more than you average ditzy girl. For me, one of the defining Alexis Rose quotes came in season 1. I realized when Ted gave her the book, Opening Your Heart to Animals: a Guide to the Benefits of Caring for Something Other Than Yourself, and she replied with “that’s a very specific book,” that this character is something special. She wasn’t at all stupid, and she knew exactly who she was. From there, Alexis went on to make us laugh out loud and inspire the hell out of us simultaneously for the rest of the series.
