AFT Awards: Top 5 Scenes

The following represent some of the best individual moments in television for the 2006-2007 season. Descriptions contain SPOILERS. This particular post contains important information that should be avoided if you have not seen the most recent seasons of any of the following: Dexter, 30 Rock, The Office, and Lost.


Best Scenes of the Season

#5. DEXTER, "Truth Be Told"

Dexter frantically searches for Deb, and in doing so realizes that Rudy is the Ice Truck Killer. The closing shot of the episode, just after Rudy proposed to Deb and then knocked her out, has Rudy staring out at the ocean, Deb bound and unconscious on the deck of his boat.

#4. 30 ROCK, "Tracy Does Conan"
This brilliant scene was shown as Baldwin's clip for either the Golden Globe or SAG Awards, which Baldwin subsequently won. Liz discovers that the big night Jack has been so heavily preparing for is not happening right away, and walks in to find him all suited up in his tux. Asked why he is wearing the tux, Jack responds, "What am I, a farmer?" Give him the Emmy for that line alone.

#3. THE OFFICE, "The Job"

Possibly the funniest character on any show delivers possibly the greatest anecdote ever spoken. He describes his blog, http://www.creedthoughts.gov/creedthoughts.www, which is revealed to be merely a word document created by fellow office worker Ryan to keep the world safe from Creed's thoughts. Laugh-out-loud hilarious and instantly unforgettable.

#2. LOST, "One of Us"
After an entire episode of dredging up sympathy for Juliet and really making her into a compassionate character, the rug is pulled out from under us as it is revealed that she was sent by head Other Ben to spy on the survivors of Flight 815. A chilling and amazing scene, and the look on Juliet's face (above) says it all.

#1. THE OFFICE, "Product Recall"
Jim walks in, dressed like Dwight and sets to work freaking Dwight out by acting exactly like him. Mentioning "Battlestar Galactica" and posing the question "What kind of bear is best?" makes for the greatest imatation of Dwight and one stellar and amazing scene.
