Rita’s death in Dexter after he had already killed Trinity was the only moment of TV that actually messed with my head. I’d have used that instead of the ice truck killer.

Exactly! That’s the twist that should have been instead of the ice truck killer one. That totally caught me off guard. I remember watching the finale and sitting for about 5 minutes speechless!

[@sandman1008]

Another one here totally agreeing. The Ice Truck Killer reveal was surprising, but I had almost forgotten about it. The Dexter moment that left the biggest impact was Rita's murder. I still think about that finale because it was such a shocking moment. But also because it was the turning point of the series. After that, the original writer and showrunner left and the show went downhill.

Missed the Bob Newhart show when he woke up with his wife Emily from his previous series and told her about his dream as an Inn Keeper in Vermont. Surprising and hilarious.

Picard being assimilated by the Borg deserved one of the top spots on this list!

[@andidreyes5323]

What about the death of Rory and Amy in Dr. Who. You truly believe that they've escaped the Weeping Angels without causing a paradox & it's like you're hit with a train at the realization that they did but they didn't at the same time. It was one of the best episodes of television I've ever seen (but I truly loved both Tennant and Smith's Doctors and all of Tennant's various companions {Smith's as well}). But there is a visceral reaction to the loss of the Centurion and Amelia.

[@rockinrj87]

@@beans1030 ER in a lot of ways is the perfect TV show especially for that era Great character development. It's a teaching hospital so you have a way to easily introduce new characters. It tackles real-world issues that affect the show character progression. My one flaw is how it ended I would have had the 15th season Carter takes over as the chief of the department and Rachel Green is starting as an intern. That's what I would have done for the 15th and final season. Because we get brought into ER in a lot of ways through the eyes of Carter he starts as an intern and ends up in attending I think it should have ended with him as the chief of the department.

[@williamjasper2734]

The twist at the end of Season 1 of Quantico deserved a mention. There we’re many twists throughout the long season, but they all culminated into the finale reveal that blew my mind. Also Mr. Yang’s reveal from Psych season 3 is a great twist with NO foreshadowing beforehand.

[@williamjasper2734]

I also have to add the twist of Oman’s reveal from S1 of Legend of Korra. Had me reacting the same way that Red Wedding had others.

[@jscho8674]

I love that 24 got the #1. That show was fantastic, and the Nina reveal was absolutely stunning.

[@jaxpitts1044]

Newhart's similar twist was better than St. Elsewhere since it actually kinda made sense, instead of coming clear out of left field.

[@Denis-89]

Yes but these are supposed to be coming out of left field. They don't have to make sense as long as they surprised people..

[@Footjones]

It's hard to believe this classic episode wasn't even mentioned on this list.

[@StefanBourne]

24 just came on Netflix a few weeks ago and ive started watching it so the Nina reveal was still fresh for me. Lost is great too cant wait to watch it again.

[@seanbarron2890]

I'm not surprised Stephen Moffatt was one of the few who knew about the River/Melody twist, he wrote it!

[@anisezettecarey2448]

That MASH Episode Was Gut-wrenching.

[@akosbarati2239]

The delicious irony is, and I'm adding this for posterity, the Who shot J.R. plot line was a happy accident, with CBS ordering additional episodes after shooting wrapped. Not only that but with writers' strike slowing things down, the reveal didn't come until the 4th episode of the next season. That said, I myself was a bit of a loss because during when it's originally aired, most Western shows were banned for political reasons, and by the time it arrived a whopping decade later, only the fact that there was no internet yet saved a lot of people from the reveal. The problem is though, that Dallas is connected to the previously conceived, but later green-lit Knots Landing, so certain happening on Dallas cannot be fully understood without watching the other show.

[@laustcawz2089]

The idea for that sort of cliffhanger probably also came from "Soap", which had a similar situation with "Who killed Peter Campbell?" 2 years earlier.

[@Desertpuma]

People had to wait an entire year and it was speculated on every magazine in America when it happened

[@laustcawz2089]

@@Desertpuma I remember. There was even a parody of the saying--"I Shot J.R.!". I discovered "Soap" later, in reruns. It's a classic. The ultimate soap opera spoof. The first season finale, in Spring 1978, presented 5 possible suspects. The culprit was revealed that fall. Strange that it didn't get more attention. The show was a big success in general, though. Launched the careers of Billy Crystal, Robert Guillaume, Katherine Helmond & Ted Wass.

[@packnetadaija]

I'm really enjoying these top 20 lists

[@marisaipardo]

They left out the gut-punch ending to How I Met Your Mother. It wasn't a GOOD twist but it definitely came outta left field as far as shock factor. For a decade, the show had us guessing the identity of the mother and wanting so badly for her to finally appear. But absolutely NOBODY could've predicted the depressing twist.

[@AngelusHale]

I loved the ending of How I met your Mother. The thing that shocked me the most was that people actually thought it was about how he met their mother just because it's the title. Hilarious. Seriously, the show started when Ted met Robin, 8 years before he actually met the mother. Of course it was about his relationship with Robin. The ending of LOST learned me something about people. They're dumb. The ending of HIMYM confirmed that.

To me, those twists were poorly set up and executed. They had the potential to create a team of serial killers of mythological proportions, but got let down with the result.

[@markelabanks4808]

Didn't see the twist in Charmed with the boys coming back from the future and all. HTGAWM and WandaVision are among some of my absolute favorite TV twists but definitely saw them coming

[@sandervandertol7889]

IMO, they nearly doomed The Walking Dead when they cut Chandler Riggs (Carl) from the show, however they miraculously survived and the last two seasons were actually pretty damn good. But absolutely, Carl's death was something that I didn't see coming and the creators succeeded in delivering a major plot twist. It changed the show drastically, for better or worse.
