The Sourcies Are Still Reeling from These OMG Moments!
We can hardly count the number of times we needed to pick our jaws off the floor this season on FOX -- there were so many OMG! moments to make us do a double-triple-quadruple take and goggle at the screen. Which was the most shocking? Well, that's for you to decide!
So those are the choices, FOX fans. Which was the most shocking OMG moment? Your votes decide. Polls are open until July 23 -- so get to it!
In a season full of shocks and heart-breaking moments, this may have been the one that topped them all. We were worried when we saw Tony working with the bad guys, but were reassured when Chloe and Bill vouched for him. Of course! He went astray, but now he's undercover trying to bring the evildoers down! But things seemed hinky with him throughout the season. Finally, we got irrefutable evidence that Tony had crossed over to the eeeeeeevil side when he killed a helpless Agent Moss -- just as the guy was starting to grow on us! What's more, he killed Larry in them most up-close and personal way possible, looking into his eyes as he smothered him with his bare hands. We don't know if there's any way to redeem Tony now... |
For the past four seasons, we've watched Booth and Brennan dance around their feelings for each other. This season, it started looking the they'd finally figure things out. Gordon teased us with the fact that one of the pair was keenly aware of their attraction. We assumed it was Booth. In the finale, it looked like Brennan was coming around -- the story she seemed to be writing imagined a happy relationship between the two. Then Booth woke up, apparently recovered from surgery for his benign brain tumor. The good news -- he's doing fine. The bad news? He doesn't remember Brennan at all. Poing! |
The Dollhouse was the site of all sorts of strange behavior and questionable characters -- none more so than Alpha, the Doll who was supposed to be long gone. First off, he's played by Alan Tudyk, who we still think of as lovable, goofy Wash -- so when he turned into a psycho killer with 40-odd personalities, that took us aback. Then he decided that all the people in his head made him a god -- and he wanted Echo to join him in divinity. Echo gets all the people loaded into her head, but declines to join Alpha in his craziness. She saves her personality disc and willingly goes back to the Dollhouse -- but she remembers much more than everyone thinks. All OMG worthy, but the biggest -- and most welcome --shock? That Dollhouse is coming back so we'll get to see how this all plays out! |
Fringe was another show full of shocking twists and turns, but one of the most visceral shocks came at the very end of the season finale. After stopping Mr. Jones, Olivia finally gets her audience with William Bell -- who, Nina Sharp keeps telling her, is out of the office. She's not kidding -- Olivia tries to meet Nina for lunch, and is stood up. She stomps to the elevator, and things... flicker. Change. People appear and disappear. The elevator doors open, and a woman ushers Olivia into an office. William Bell is waiting for her. The camera pans back from Olivia and Bell, and zooms out the window. It keeps panning back, further and further... and we realize that Bell's office is in the World Trade Center. Which is still standing. It's a classic sci-fi shock move, akin to finding the Statue of Liberty buried in the sand. Wow. |
Fans were squealing with glee when House and Cuddy hooked up at the end of the penultimate episode. But in the finale, something was off. Cuddy was seriously upset with House, and House couldn't figure out why. He kept playing with the lipstick he'd picked up at her place, worryig it in his hands, flipping it over and over. It was a talisman for what had happened -- and it wasn't real. Huddy never happened. House spat out an unforgivable insult to Cuddy and her adopted child, and she kicked him out. There was not hooking up. There was no lipstick. House has been playing with yet another Vicodin pill bottle this whole time. When he sees how far astray his mind as been leading him, House admits that something needs to be done. Wilson drives him to a mental hospital -- and House checks himself in for treatment. |
