GoT when bad b**** Olenna told Jaime to tell Cersei it was her

Cersei pulled a real mean one on miss “shame shame shame”. But she also got the sand snakes, the high sparrow, Margery, and a whole lot of collateral damage.

Yeah. I never liked Cersei. She made a lot of really bad an unnecessarily cruel moves. But I can’t fault her for f****** her brother and her cousin. She had an awful dad and an awful husband. Get it where you can, girl. So when the High Sparrow pulled that shit, humiliated her publicly, took her son from her, and then expected her to show up at a public trial and beg for forgiveness? Not for enabling Jeoffry, not for killing Ned or trying to kill Bran, but for incest? Take all the wildfire. Just, all of it. Burn them to the ground.

When people ask what happened here, tell them that the North remembers. Tell them that winter came for House Frey.

One of my favorite parts of the later seasons was Arya becoming the tiny little murder machine and ending people. See also: Little Finger, the Night King, etc.

Omar's revenge against Stringer Bell in The Wire season 3,the entire build up of that episode it's insane,and how Omar just told him how Avon did sold him without any doubt and no needing of any type of torture or pay-off to make him talk.such a brilliant scene indeed.

That scene. I remember seeing Gus walk out. I stood up and yelled “NO! F*** THIS! He does not get to survi….” and then just standing there with my jaw literally hanging open and my eyes as big as saucers.

"I am that guy" - Amos, from The Expanse. He took revenge on behalf of a good man.

In Mad Men, when Don takes revenge on Roger for making a pass at his wife by out drinking him, paying off the elevator guy and making him climb 30 flights of stairs right after a big oyster lunch and before an important meeting. Best part is, Don is putting himself through the same trial alongside Roger and succeeds.

People talk about the north remembering, but Cersei's revenge is one of the best ~8 minutes or so of television I've ever seen.

Tom tipping off Logan and walking in right after Logan scolded his kids. Was so satisfying to see Shiv get fucked over by Tom for once.

LOST When Sawyer finally meets the real Sawyer. SAWYER: Well, how about that. COOPER: How about what? SAWYER: Sawyer's my name, too. Revenge for both Locke and Sawyer. So satisfying.

Oldboy has the most memorable scenes of revenge. But I'd be uncomfortable calling them "best"
5
Toby_O_Notoby Mar 23, 2026 +2
Old one from the Alias TV show: ""One in five, you little b****! ONE. IN. FIVE!" Context: >!Will has been being tortured for several days but hasn't given anything up. His torturer brings out some sodium pentathol and tells him that 1 in 5 men are paralyzed by it, basically giving him one last chance to talk or run the risk. But Will breaks his bonds and stabs him in the neck with the needle yelling that phrase as he does so.!<

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Rebecca loses it (in song of course) to Josh at the altar. Everything had led up to that moment of truth. This leads to her vowing revenge on Josh.

not sure if it counts, but the one scene that really got me unlike anything else was in Breaking Bad when Walter blew Gus' face off
1
Kalse1229 Mar 23, 2026 +1
Not really a scene but a whole episode. Specifically Malcolm in the Middle, with the episode where four popular girls (one of whom is played by a young Emma Stone) play a nasty prank on Reese. When he’s lying catatonic in bed and the principal refuses to do anything, Lois takes matters into her own hands and systematically wrecks each girl’s life in hilariously dark ways.

Due to the changed motive, the murders in the story "Appointment With Death" are turned into this in the series *Poirot* where Lady Boynton >!and her nanny!< are given outright torturous deaths for the crimes they committed. >!Dame Celia Westholme was once no more than a scullery maid working for her back in America when she got seduced by a guest in Lady Boynton's house. Left pregnant from the encounter, Mrs Pierce - as she was known then before she remarried - forcibly took her child from her and deported Celia to Ireland where she was to be "cared for by nuns" (if you don't know what a Magdelene Laundry is, let's just say that it was *not* a good time).!< >!Celia ran away from her imprisonment, reinvented herself as a travel writer and became a celebrity but at least hoping that her child was safe... until she happened to be a guest at the same party as Lady Boynton by chance and through gossip learned about the horrific tortures Lady Boynton inflicted on her adopted children. Verifying those claims, she and the father tracked her down and killed the two responsible in revenge.!< >!Lady Boynton was injected with a paralysing drug before she went to do some sunbathing, leading to her basically cooking under the sun for hours before the accomplice put a wax ball full of goat's blood under her clothes. When the "body" was discovered and she had a clear alibi, Celia rushed to Lady Boynton's "aid" and killed her in front of multiple witnesses none the wiser.!< >!The nanny's death is just as bad. Because she went along with (and under orders, committed) the physical abuse, she was secretly drugged with severe hallucinagenics so that the father would hypnotise her, compelling her to commit suicide.!<
