This year the TV was jam-packed with climactic kisses, deaths and waffles. Here’s our video roundup of our favorite moments, silly and serious, from 2008 TV.
Compilation 1:
Chuck – Smooch – “Chuck Versus The Ex”
John Casey (Adam Baldwin) is the best part of Chuck and makes the floppy-haired nerd boy tolerable.
True Blood – How To Kill A Vampire – “Plaisir d’amour
Didn’t know that the rule of “if you throw up, then I’m going to throw up” applies to vampires.
Doctor Who – Cyberman Transformer – “The Next Doctor”
Jesus H Christ that’s cool.
Lost – I Said All Of You – “There’s No Place Like Home: Part 2”
Who knew being in a coffin could be so intimidating?
Fringe – First Walterism – “Pilot”
That is the sound of a new era of science funny, crazy-style.
Sarah Connor Chronicles – Crazy Future Ladies – “Strange Things Happen at the One Two Point”
All the ladies from the future put your hands up!
Eureka – Bye Bye Nathan – “I Do Over”
I complained about Nathan’s exit on this show the first time around, but it’s really grown on me after watching it a few more times.
Eleventh Hour – Flesh Eating STDs – “Spring Break Sucks”
Flesh eating STDs totally ruined my spring break, too.
The Office – Dumbledore Calrissian – “Business Ethics”
Funniest science fiction joke of the season.
Stargate Atlantis – Nerd Love, McKay Style – “Brain Storm”
The nerd gets the girl.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles – Derek Blows Our Minds – “Complications”
Wait, what? How many times did you rewind this part?
Battlestar Galactica – Cally Air Locked – “The Ties That Bind”
GOOD RIDDANCE. Thank you, RDM, for delivering what I needed.
True Blood – Sad Dancing For Drugs – “Escape from Dragon House”
Sparked a whole revolution of sad underwear dancing.
Compilation 2:
Dr. Who – Kiss Goodbye – “Journey’s End”
Why can’t I meet a man like the Doctor? Best kiss, because it kept the real Doctor at bay, and Rose off in another dimension (not that I don’t love her — I’m just ready for some new blood).
Life On Mars – Sam Teaches Black Panthers About Vanilla Ice – “Things to Do in New York When You Think You’re Dead”
Sam, you are the man.
Smallville – Doomsday Ruins Lame Wedding – “Bride”
Only thing worth watching on Smallville this season so far: Sam Witwer as Doomsday.
Battlestar Galactica – Finding Earth – “Revelations”
You made a wrong turn at Saturn.
Heroes – Waffles! – “I Am Become Death”
Surprise — I’m creepier when I act normal!
Venture Brothers – OSI Song
Big “Tah Dah” moment.
Lost – World’s Best Phone Conversation – “The Constant”
My favorite episode of the season — just a beautiful example of a great pay-off after a long, long, long wait for these two lovers.
