"I'm sorry, I can't. Don't hate me..."
Look, I love a sappy romance and a heartfelt family sitcom as much as the next person. But let's be real here — sometimes, I'm just watching my fave TV shows and movies for the mean, nasty moments.
NBC
Recently, Reddit user u/iamharoldshipman (that username is out of our control...) asked the people of r/popculturechat to share the coldest moments in a TV show or movie. Here are some of our favourite responses:
Heads up: THIS POST IS BRIMMING WITH SPOILERS! You've been warned...
1. When Don Draper said "I don't think about you at all" to Michael Ginsburg in Mad Men.
AMC
2. When Walter White tells Jesse "I was there, and I watched her [Jane] die" in Breaking Bad.
AMC
"I just rewatched Breaking Bad for like the sixth time, and Walt is downright evil in that scene."
"I’ve only watched this series the whole way through once. I really want to rewatch it, but I don’t think I can emotionally handle Jesse crying, so instead I’m on my 5000th rewatch through of Gossip Girl."
3. When Olenna Tyrell realises she's about to die, confesses that she murdered Jaime and Cersei's child, and then says "tell Cersei, I want her to know it was me" in Game of Thrones.
HBO
4. Mellie Grant’s monologue to Fitz after they sign their divorce papers in Scandal.
ABC
"The DRAGGING that man deserved after all the shit she put up with from him. Team Mellie all the way! I recite the line 'Spent twenty years propping you up making you feel better about your pathetic mediocrity' daily — she really humbled him, and I can quote this scene by heart. Bellamy Young deserved an Emmy for this!"
"I've never seen this show, but this line resonates so hard with me. I want to say this to my ex."
5. When Scar said "long live the king" to Mufasa before dropping him off a cliff in Lion King.
Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures
6. When Livia appears to encourage Tony getting whacked in The Sopranos.
HBO
7. When Selena lets Gary goes to prison in Veep and never visits him.
HBO
8. The season three finale of Succession when Shiv realizes who betrayed the Roy siblings to Logan.
HBO
10. When Naomi Smalls said "life's not fair" after voting to eliminate frontrunner Manila Luzon in season four of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars.
WoW
11. When Jules ate Brett's breakfast and drank his Sprite in Pulp Fiction.
Miramax / FilmFlex / Miramax Home Entertainment
"Oh yeah, and then he sarcastically compliments him and calls him by the wrong name."
12. When Kourtney tells Kim "Kim, there's people that are dying" when Kim loses her ($75,000, UNINSURED) earring in the ocean in Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
E!
13. When Hans told Anna "if only there was someone out there who loved you" in Frozen, after leading her to believe they'd fallen for each other.
Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures
14. When Hannibal Lecter said "I didn't poison you, Tobias. I wouldn't do that to the food" in Hannibal.
NBC
"This dude was the coldest MF on television. He literally ate people up as if he was making a sandwich, and he looked gorgeous doing it. Walter White could never. Tyrion Lannister could never. Tony Soprano could never."
15. When Mr Chow said "did you have a bad day? Did you die? I got shot. But did you die?" in The Hangover Part II.
Warner Bros./ Warner Bros. Pictures / FilmFlex
