Sometimes, apart from expert directing, brilliant acting, and phenomenal script, impromptu scripts and performances make the scene unforgettable. With almost every aspect of life was at a standstill, tv was that one thing that somehow made us all through 2020. With enough shows and millions of people were at home, tv offers a kind of escape at a time when many of us need it most. Of course, some shows tried catching up with the ongoing pandemic by locking it into storylines and mixing their usual formats for better and (mostly) for worse. For the most part, however, television keeps windows open to a world that exists beyond the new coronavirus. While it’s irritating to see people sharing drinks and getting lost in fright in crowds and grocery stores (what a concept!), there was no denying that living was in this distant reality was also a bit of a relief, even for a few minutes, at that point of time. So thus, there some moments that are so freaking smart that fans can’t believe that tv shows actually pulled them off. So in an attempt to let fans know about these shows, we at Animated Times have curated a list to let you know.

10. In How I Met Your Mother, when every scene from the “Bad News” episode included hidden numbers that secretly counted down from 50, and when it got to zero Lily appeared and told Marshall that his dad died:

7. In Grey’s Anatomy, when an unrecognizable man was brought into the hospital in Season 5, and he traced the numbers “0-0-7” onto Meredith’s palm, calling back to O’Malley’s “007” nickname from Season 1 and revealing that he was actually George:
