A weekly feature in which we're trying to find most compelling, best acted, written, directed and just generally great scenes that we've seen recently.
Week 26. Can't wait for the summer shows to start! Here are our favorites (in alphabetical order):
BABY DADDY, "I'm Not That Guy", May 29, 2013, Actors: Derek Theler, Chelsea Kane
The Scene: Danny shows up to help Riley out
Klutzy Girl: He just loves her so much and despite getting his heart broken repeatedly, he keeps doing it.
CONTINUUM, "Second Opinion", May 26, 2013, Actor: Rachel Nichols
The Scene: Kiera lets go
Justyna Kubica: I really liked the entire episode, so choosing just one specific scene wasn't easy, but I decided to go with Kiera's "goodbye" to her son. Kiera breaking down was a chance to see how great Rachel Nichols can be in these emotional moments. And this heartbreaking scene when her character has to accept the fact that she may never see her beloved son again is definitely one of her best performances on the show. I can't imagine the pain a mother must feel losing her child, but it all felt very real to me.
HANNIBAL, "Buffet Froid", May 30, 2013, Actors: Hugh Dancy, Mads Mikkelsen, Ellen Muth
The Scenes: Georgia walks in on Hannibal in the doctor's office & Will gets attacked by the woman under the bed
DarkUFO: The scene where Georgia (Ellen Muth) walks in on Hannibal as he is doing his kill. He calmly gives her the scissors and walks out. A very creepy scene.
Sharon Seymour: Will gets attacked by the woman under the bed when he thinks he's dreaming and rips her arm skin off - YUK!
Diana Mack: The whole episode was amazing, so it's hard to chose. I'd pick for the last scene: Georgia finds Hannibal in the doctor's office, she's confused, she doesn't recognize him. Then Hannibal gently gives her the scissors he used earlier to kill the doctor.
MAD MEN, "The Better Half", May 26, 2013, Actors: Elisabeth Moss, Charlie Hofheimer
The Scene: Peggy accidentally stabs Abe (Darth Locke)
ORPHAN BLACK, "Endless Forms Most Beautiful", June 1, 2013, Actors: Tatiana Maslany, Natalie Lisinska
The Scene: Allison lets her neighbor choke to death
Darth Locke: Allison lets her neighbor, Aynesley Norris, choke to death when she gets her scarf caught in the garbage disposal.
Orphan Black has to be one of the best new series of the year! It's season finale was no exception with lots of twists and turns. It was hard to pick a scene, since there were lots of good moments. Tatiana Maslany is FANTASTIC! I picked this scene, because coming from Alison, it was the most shocking.
PSYCH, "No Trout About It", May 29, 2013, Actors: James Roday, Dulé Hill, Timothy Omundson, Maggie Lawson, Kirsten Nelson, Anthony Michael Hall
The Scene: The last one
Justyna Kubica: Here comes the cliffhanger! Hate the fact that Chief Vick lost her job, but the moment when she says goodbye and Shawn hugs her was just so very sweet. Always loved the scenes between these two. Also, everything is changing with Trout taking over Vick's position. This guy! Not even gonna pretend that I like him (Lassie!). Psych just ended one of the show's best seasons and I can't wait what's gonna happen next! "It's ON!"
REVOLUTION, "Children of Men", May 27, 2013, Actors: Elizabeth Mitchell, David Lyons, Giancarlo Esposito, Zak Orth
The Scenes: Neville and Aaron insult each other & Rachel forces Monroe to admit to the murders he has committed & The explosion
Sharon Seymour: Monroe's men getting blasted one at a time with the EMP guns and exploding in a bloody mess.
Klutzy Girl: Neville insulting Aaron and Aaron insulting him right back was one of my favorite moments of the episode. Aaron standing up for himself was just awesome and it was a pretty hilarious moment.
Darth Locke: Rachel forces Monroe to admit to the murders he has committed, including her son, Danny's, while the two are locked into a safe room on level 11 of The Tower together.
ROOKIE BLUE, "Homecoming", May 30, 2013, Actors: Missy Peregrym, Peter Mooney, Matt Gordon
The Scenes: Andy walks into the Penny & Oliver tells Andy not to give up
Sharon Seymour: Nick's face when Andy walks into the Penny.
Klutzy Girl: Oliver tells Andy not to give up. Based on prior episodes, he really ships Andy and Sam and wants them to be happy together.
