I think I'll start adding those who can't recognize when spoiler tags should be used to my ignore list.

Re: TV Episodes That Made You Cry

Ah, can't we just put spoiler in the thread title? It's annoying clicking those spoiler boxes.
ER:
Spoiler:

When Carol comforts Mark after his father died.

Rescue Me:
Spoiler:
When Tommy and Janet desperately try to save their son.


The above 24 one is good.

I also felt bad about the cat from the closer. One reason why I don't watch it any more.

eta: the ending of doctor who doomsday. The song is beautiful.

Deep Space 9 - "The Visitor", with guest star Tony Todd as the elder Jake Sisko.

Makes me weep like a baby every time.

Re: TV Episodes That Made You Cry

The fate of Shane and his family had me a little misty after watching the series finale of The Shield... which is the best show I've ever watched on TV.

Powerful episode.

There are probably a few more Buffy episodes that drew some tears from me.

Re: TV Episodes That Made You Cry

I can't think of anything. TV tends to shock me more easily while film tends to be more conducive to generating tears in my experience.

Just about any television show when the song "Hallelujah" is played. Something about that song gets to me every time i hear it.

Re: TV Episodes That Made You Cry

Just finished re-watching Six Feet Under and I agree on the last episode "Everyone's Waiting", but also the 3rd to last episode of that series "All Alone".

The end of the last True Blood got me pretty good.

24 Season 1 episode 24

Spoiler:


Jack finds Teri dead shot by Nina Meyers and the scene flashes to black and white shots of Jack and his family in hour 1. Jack sobs and says "I'm so sorry" and it fades out to a silent clock. To me, that was the most powerful moment on the show to this date. Everytime I see that see, I get a little misty eyed.

None yet but it was damn close with the series finale of 'Six Feet Under' the second time watching the whole series.

I was feeling bummed until Eric fell to his knees displaying the worst acting on tv so far this year. Then I was just laughing

The two-part clip show in the final season of Seinfeld, specifically near the end when Green Day's 'Time of Your Life' is playing.

I felt the opposite, because it screamed "this is powerful stuff here! Cry, dammit cry!".

It felt like the show was trying too hard to force emotional responses, especially the remainder of the cast's reaction to the event itself.
