Emmy Wants to Know: What Were the Most Memorable Moments in Television

Sunday August 24, 2008
They might hold a spot on Nielsen's top 20 list each week, but let's face it, not everyone watches American Idol, Desperate Housewives, Heroes or CSI. We all have our own opinions on what makes a television show worth our precious viewing time. However, no matter what series we've watched over the years, everyone has at least one television moment they'll never forget.

To celebrate 60 years of recognizing the best of the best on the small screen, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences is asking viewers to vote for their favorite moments in both comedy and drama.

Voters can choose from twenty scenes in both categories. To help refresh your memory, video clips from each nominated scene are right at your fingertips. Some of the dramatic moments include scenes from Moonlighting, Little House on the Prairie, Grey's Anatomy and Buffy. Comedic moments include scenes from I Love Lucy, Mork and Mindy, Friends and Seinfeld.
