The 250 Greatest TV Moments of All Time (Chewer Edition)

You know how it works. One post per person per day. Go.

1. Bartlet Vs. God in “Two Cathedrals” (The West Wing)

One of the best reveals ever…

  1. Constanza saves the Whale (Seinfeld)

What is a TV ‘moment’, specifically? An episode, a small part of an episode, just a quick scene?

It can be whatever you want it to be: an entire episode, a scene, a line, or something you just remember fondly. It can be fiction or non-fiction. Totally open.

  1. On-air obituary for Chuckles the Clown. (The Mary Tyler Moore Show)

4.) MORE COWBELL. I’ll get it out of the way now.

5. Angel kills Miss Calendar – “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” Season 2

Possibly the best moment of the entire series, which puts it in the running for best moment in TV history.

I expect 190+ of the suggestions to be Whedon-related.

Dr. Green loses a mother..and then her baby. “Love’s Labor Lost” ER, First Season.

That episode had me all shaky at the end.

  1. The Flying Sheep sketch - the first sketch of the first episode of Monty Python’s Flying Circus

Television was never the same after

Homer Simpson weightlessly eats chips to the strains of The Blue Danube.

Sorry, Optimus…this one’s better…and sorry gravedigger for feeding the stereotype…

  1. Buffy kissing, then killing Angel (Buffy, Season 2)

Riker orders the enterprise to fire the main deflector on the Locutus led borg cube.

Udo Kier’s birth in Riget.

Bud Dwyer goes out with a bang.

Hey, that’s fine. I’m sure there are some good moments from the series (I liked the silent episode with the creepy floaty guys in suits, personally), the show just never appealed to me like it did virtually everyone else on the internets.

Joel escaping from the SOL in an escape pod from the box of Hamdingers - MST3K

Hank Kingsley meets the Wu Tang Clan on Larry Sanders:

Hank: Hey guys, I gotta tell you, my favorite song on here is ‘Shame on the Nigger’.

(uncomfortable silence from Wu Tang)

Hank: No?

(later in the conversation)

Hank: Hey, where’s Dirty Old Bitch?

You beat me to it!

“With God as my witness, I swear I thought turkeys could fly!”

One of my favorites is Fawlty Towers - Episode 10: The Kipper and the Corpse

Basil’s response after Polly accidentally knocks Miss Tibbs unconscious, “Oh great, two dead, only another twenty-five to go”; and the staricase scene, both are totally priceless.
