Another scene from MASH-- an episode where Houlihan is being particularly rough on the nurses and it turns out that she was jealous of their friendships and support for each other. She has a breakdown and says she knows she's not welcome when they're having a good time. The acting was great in that scene.

I remember this as well and her saying something like, "Couldn't they invite me for a lousy cup of coffee?" Don't know why this has stuck with me.

Yes, that was a wonderful episode. And there were many of that show, which in my opinion is the best of all time. Also agree with those who single out HB's death and the chicken scene.

GoT: When Joffrey slays all the King's bastards, even the babies. I was so glad when that m-fer got it, I don't care if he was just a scared little boy in that scene. Great acting for such a young guy to make me viscerally despise him so.

Call the Midwife: Like Episode 3 of the whole thing, when the younger mom births the super black baby and her very white, much older husband makes no mention of it and loves him just the same. I tear up just thinking about it.

Felicity: When a Ruby takes a pregnancy test and wills it to "be blue," aka negative. I just remember thinking how much of an "Oh sh**" moment that has to be for so many people, being in high school at the time. And how I have many times recently willed one in the opposite direction!

I'll go back old school even further with the Brady Bunch



As a kid, I though they had an actual survivor, but turns out he was just an actor.

Ditto to the Dire Straits reference. I'm actually RE watching WW on Netflix.

Absolutely heartbreaking, I was haunted by that episode for a long time. The song wasn't nearly as over used then.

Honestly, I could only think why was a secret serviceman on a protection detail not wearing a bulletproof vest in the first place.

I am so old. The show I loved the most when I was a kid was Taxi. Moment that sticks with me, still so funny to me-
When Elaine loses a bet and has to go on a date with Louie (Danny DeVito) - she is wearing muliple layers of clothing to prevent him from touching her. And then covers her whole body with this full length puffy down coat.
Also on General Hospital when Sonny doesn't show up to marry Brenda and she is standing in the rain crying. He always left her standing in the rain.

Someone finally mentioned on page 8 I think of Melrose place Kimberly ripping off the wig.

I'm haunted by a GRey's anatomy - it's one where some sort of pipe went though 2 people, impaling them and pinning them together. They're going to do surgery to remove the two people - an older man and a young 20-something woman. Well, after X-rays or examinations, they figure out the man can survive, but the pipe or whatever it is has ruptured her heart of something, and the only thing keeping her alive is the pressure of the pipe, and once they take it out she will die, no possible way to save her. The man and woman have been joking and becoming friends, and they have to tell them he will live and she will die. She says she has no family or anything to call to say goodbye. So they start the surgery, remove the pipe, and leave her body aside to all work frantically to save the man. Meredith is the only one who makes any attempt to save the young woman and becomes just drenched in her blood. (and the whole thing is a big metaphor for Meredith, as she's just learned Derek is married and he's going to work on his marriage, leaving Meredith as a casualty on the side). I've just always been haunted by the thought of knowing that you will die and there is nothing you can do about it, what you would do or think.

On a different note, hell yeah Roz falling down that elevator shaft was un-freaking-believable!!

When Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler finally have sex on "The Big Bang Theory"

There was a scene from Grey's Anatomy possibly from first on second season where a group of friends (about 8) were in a car accident and in the end they all died. But what got me was the way it ended by showing each person being zipped into a body bag.
Don't remember which episode it was and only saw it once. Very moving.

Fresh prince of Bel Air- Ben Vereen leaving Will Smith then him breaking down saying that isn't his dad .. I cry every time!

Six feet Under- final montage of everyone's final moment! Very fitting ending to a great show.

The Sopranos- Adriana crawling away from Pauly Walnuts- hate you Christopher!

Lost- Jin and Son final moments and separately that rocker guy (from Lord of the Rings) sacrificing himself

Trying to be vague...probably still best not to read if you are or are planning to watch breaking bad.

Breaking bad, when Jesse does that final thing to walter's assistant. I was sobbing and wishing I hadn't started the series.

This time on the A-Team when Hannibal said "I love it when a plan comes together."

Oh, right.

Omg, I forgot about that! I was gobsmacked.

Pam and Jim's wedding on The Office.

Also, the scene when Jim proposes to Pam in the rain outside a convenience store and the camera captures it from across the street. I loved those two.
