Ben Stone's cross-examination of a pro-life, terrorist ringleader leads her into admitting that she was responsible for killing someone else's baby. At this point my roomate and I both yelled "Boom!", a feat which has not yet been repeated.

The final exchange between Sisco and Garak in the DS9 episode "In The Pale Moonlight".
Garak: "That's why you came to me, isn't it Captain. Because you knew I could do those things you weren't capable of doing. Well it worked, and you'll get what you wanted: a war between the dominion and the romulans and if your conscience is bothering you, you should shoothe with the knowledge that you may just have saved the entire Alpha Quadrant, and all it costed was the life of one romulan senator, one criminal and the self-respect of one Starfleet officer. I don't know about you but I'll call that a bargain!"

From the same episode:
Sisko: So, I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover up the crimes of other men. I'm an accessory to murder. And the most damining thing of all is: I think I can live with it. And if I had it to do over again, I would. Another winner. That episode is classic DS9. DS9 is definitely one of the greatest shows ever to be broadcast. Loved the many shades of grey the stories and characters had. Things weren't so black and white, as it was on TNG. This quote is another great one: Eddington: "Open your eyes, Captain. Why is the Federation obsessed with the Maquis? We've never harmed you, and yet we're constantly arrested and charged with terrorism. Starships chase us through the badlands, and our supportes are harrased and ridiculed. WHY? Because we've left the Federation, and that's the one thing you can't accept. Nobody leaves Paradise--everyone should want to be in the Federation. Hell, you even want the Cardassians to join; you're only sending them replicators because one day, they can take their rightful place on the Federation Council. You know, in some ways, you're worse than the Borg. At least thy tell you about their plans for assimilation. You're more insidious; you assimilate people, and they don't even know it."

Originally posted by Delta-V: I think the most memorable moment on TV for me would be watching the Shuttle Challenger explode. That story "broke" on Newsround in this country - and John Craven'll never let you forget it! On the space theme... isn't anyone here old enough to remember the original moon landing? That's supposed to be pretty memorable...

The Frasier episode "Ham Radio" is the funniest thing I can remember seeing on tv lately. Frasier puts on a classic radio drama, where Niles has to play 6 different roles against his will and Roz plays a role right after a visit to the dentist. The whole text Act 2 is hilarious
