What was a TV moment that actually got under your skin and bothered you?

Posted by Effective_Part_604


Can be anything! For me, it was when Rick Grimes and co. took out Joe and the claimers in TWD. Episode 4x16 if you wanna watch. Heavy gore warning!

Bran “winning” the Iron Throne having done absolutely NOTHING his whole life. Almost ruined the whole show for me.

When Glee decided to follow Rachel to New York instead of following a new class of glee club members.

Watching the Breaking Bad episode "Ozymandias" (Season 5, Episode 14) on it's original airing was among the most intense television I've ever experienced.

I used to get so anxious before Breaking Bad would air on Sundays!

All of season 4 was just one tense moment after another I think.

In Lost, the whole reveal about how it's powered by a glowing light that must be protected...just given how interesting and intricate the clues and theories were leading up to that point - just thought they could've done better. Unpopular opinion I know.

I mean lost is kind of the cultural barometer.

The reichenbach fall from season 2 of Sherlock. Moriarty has Sherlock dead to rights. There is no escape what in the hell is Sherlock going to do? And then he pulls off essentially a miracle.

Each season of The Shield had something really shocking, but Shane dumping gasoline all over himself to calm some crazy guy down who had already doused himself unsettled me. I watched it more than 20 years ago and I remember the moment vividly.

I don’t even remember that. I just commented about the grenade scene. To hell with Shane, that f*****.

Most recently, when they start “playing out” Oscars award winners when they aren’t even being long-winded.

The end of the 1st season of Search Party.  The end of the episode "Butter" from Tim and Eric Bedtime Stories.  Lots of Breaking Bad moments.  I don't know if I would describe it as under my skin completely, but the Sully episode of season 2 of The Rehearsal made me feels a way I've never felt before

Butter is a great example, probably the most fitting Bedtime Stories episode for this post. BUT I will always reply to any mention of Bedtime Stories by singling out Tornado as one of the best episodes of legitimately any television show ever made. And only partially because it's how I found out that Rosa Salazar may be the most beautiful woman alive.

I almost said Toes as well, since I have a hard time sitting through those scenes. But Butter is truly fucked up

Only giving examples within shows I at least somewhat enjoy, otherwise it's just too easy to list off shows I hate altogether * Curb Your Enthusiasm - The entire subplot in S11E7 that was blatantly based on the Asia Argento-Jimmy Bennett MeToo situation, which basically amounted to Larry David repeatedly saying "You're not a victim, she's too hot to be a rapist! I would've loved being in your shoes when *I* was a teenager!" To this day it's the only episode of Curb that legitimately makes me upset when I watch it, any others I find to be weak are moreso because they DON'T inspire much emotion in me. * Xavier Renegade Angel - The whole show is supposed to do this to you, yet events like Xavier f****** his long-lost mother or destroying an all-pregnant strip club don't bother me too much. What DOES bother me is all the creepy animal hybrids in Pet Siouxcide, which is objectively not that disturbing compared to other episodes but somehow it just makes my skin crawl. * Peep Show - Again, the whole show is supposed to do this to you, but the way it's done when Mark bangs a 17 year old in the first series somehow feels different from all the other times. I actually love that episode but something about it feels uniquely creepy, even for Peep Show. * South Park - Any times during the first 14 or so seasons where Matt and Trey attempted to moralize over an objectively wrong take, like multiple speeches spouting disproven pseudoscience about second-hand smoke being harmless *besides* Butt Out or saying ADHD kids just need to be beaten. Stuff like ManBearPig doesn't bother me because it's too drawn out which eventually leads to numbness of reaction, and by season... somewhere between 16 and 19 their preaching gets way too heavy-handed and repetitive to get under my skin. For an example, maybe PC Principal would get under my skin if they used him more sparingly, but now we've had like 50 episodes all about him or the PC Babies or whatever and it's WAY too much to have any reaction beyond an exhausted "this shit again?" * Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt - The episode where Tina Fey attempts to justify yellowface

I was just saying how, on The Shield, >!Shane dropping a grenade in Lemonhead’s car!< f****** bothered me. Yeah, they were corrupt, murderous cops, but damn.

The British documentary series "24 Hours In Police Custody" had one in the two-parter "Murder Is No Game", about a teenager who shot and killed his entire family with an illegally-obtained shotgun. While looking into what possessed him to do something so vile and horrid, the police discovered two horrific details that changed the direction of the case; An internet search history showing an obsession with the Sandy Hook school shooting in America; And directions to a primary school.

Even tho it was a triumphant moment, Jaime Lannister’s finishing move to kill Euron in GOT with a stab through the gut and a slow twist as he pulled it back out, was absolutely sickening. The sound design in that show never dropped off even when the writing did.
