  • These plot twists have made watching TV this century so much better. For this list, we’ll be looking at the best story turns that were revealed on the small screen between 2000-21. We’ll be sticking to one plot twist per television show. Foreign language and animated series will be excluded here because they could each have a list of their own. And while it probably won’t surprise you to hear this, there will be major spoilers ahead. Our countdown includes the Bent-Neck Lady's Identity from "The Haunting of Hill House" (2018), Arthur's Final Victim in "Dexter" (2006-13), the Red Wedding from "Game of Thrones" (2011-19), and more! Which of these plot twists left your jaw on the floor? Let us know in the comments.

    To be honest, I think Ned Stark's execution at the end of season 1 was the most important plot twist of the series. As it would become the seed that would grow into other Game of Thrones plot twists. Including the red wedding itself.

      Agree. I remember watching for the first time wondering how he was going to be saved at the very last second in typical TV fashion. Was shocked that the "main character" died in the first season like that. Made the rest of the deaths in the show just a little less shocking (though Hodor's death did come with that awesome backstory I never saw coming). Wish they could have kept up with the great edge of your seat stuff until the end of the series...

      Unfortunately at this point it's been long enough ago, and so talked about, it will end up losing it's gravity.
      Kind of like the twist to "The Sixth Sense". Not a ton of people can say they went into that movie on it's premiere without a clue of what the movie would do. Now it's all over the internet and the effect will be lost. It's basically a trope at this point. Even the AHS twist was essentially the same. But as somebody who DID see it on it's premiere it's still the most shocking twist I've ever experienced in film or tv.

    Hey Watch Mojo, I have a minor suggestion as a fan. For lists like these, since they include spoilers, before you talk about the event, it would be great to mention the show it's from first. That way, if it's a series someone is currently watching, they can fast forward so as not to have it spoiled for them and watch the others that they've seen or don't plan on seeing.

    The "Nina being evil" from 24 was shocking, and at the time, I remember having so much hatered for a what is essentially a fictional character, but that was nowhere near as shocking as finding out the president himself was the villain in seasons 4-5!

    • @izetyusein3323

      Absolutely right. I actually had problems with the character of Charles Logan and was confused at his actions in season 5, but once the twist was revealed that he was the true villain of the season and that he was playing everyone else, he became my favourite villain in the entire show, and cemented season 5 as the best season of the show. In retrospect, the Nina twist is great but also has a major plot hole created in the process. Considering the fact that Nina was the second mole aside from Jamie, why did she sell Jamie out when no one was suspecting Jamie in the first place. If she didn’t sell out Jamie to CTU, Nina and the Drazens would have succeeded with their plan a long time ago. Another incredible and game changing twist is the shocking death of Teri Bauer, changed the whole course of the series and changed Jack’s character for the better.

    The twist that got me the most was on House, MD where Dr. House has a head injury, because he was involved in a bus crash, but knows there was someone important more injured whom he needs to save, but he can’t remember who it is. It’s a 2 part episode that starts with ‘House’s Head’. That reveal was a shock and a heartbreaker! So was the episode where one of the team commits suicide, and there was never any signs. This is the one mystery/puzzle House could never solve. The final House episode that shocked the hell out of me was when a young homeless man comes in with burns, and the team ends up with his case, as he is actually very ill. Who that man ends up being was COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED!!😱😱
    My faves on the list here were the American Horror Story one with poor Violet finding out she’s really dead. When she finally sees her own body, how she cries just breaks me. 🥺

    I think a better twist from Alias was also from season 2, at the end of phase one, when they go in and take out SD6 and the Alliance is no more and then we found out that the whole thing was basically orchestrated by Sloane. He knew for a while that Sydney and Jack were actually really working with the CIA and used that to leak the information to Sydney and have the CIA takeout the Alliance. He was never actually loyal to the Alliance and was merely using them as a means to an end. That whole episode was such an incredible game changer for the show. It's really no wonder that they used that episode for the post super bowl spot.

    Only for it to be revealed it was their plan all along, and finally taking out Stahl and Jimmy O. Opie and Chibs getting revenge, the club only serving a reduced sentence, as well as Tara discovering JT’s letters.
    All the while “Hey Hey, My My” is playing. Truly 10/10 TV twist.
