10 of the most talked about moments on TV in 2017

<h2>JAW-DROPPING DRAGON</h2> <p><em>Game of Thrones</em> left audiences everywhere reeling during its Season 7 finale. The moment the Night King rode a blue-flame-breathing dragon that he brought back from the dead into Westeros – tearing down the Wall for his undead army – sent chills down our spine!</p> <p>Photo: &copy; HBO Canada</p>
<h2>PUCKER UP!</h2> <p>While guest starring on <em>Mom</em> as a charming cowboy, Chris Pratt shared a sweet embrace with his then-wife, Anna Faris. The two split a few months later, but their on-screen smooch will live on as the cutest kiss of the year.</p>
<h2>BRING ON THE NOSTALGIA</h2> <p>The opening scene of the <em>Will and Grace</em> reboot was a breath of fresh air. After years away from primetime, Will, Grace, Jack and Karen picked up right where they left off – with risqué banter, pop-culture commentary and electric chemistry.</p>
<h2>A RIVERDALE EXIT?</h2> <p>The Season 1 finale of <em>Riverdale</em> left us on the edge of our seats when Archie watched his dad, Fred Andrews, get shot in Pop’s diner. This came just days after Fred declined to sell his business to Hermione Lodge, making viewers think the Lodges were responsible.</p> <p>Photo: &copy; Netflix</p>
<h2>DANCING WITH DREW SCOTT</h2> <p>The Property Brother made Canada proud when he made an impressive showing on <em>Dancing with the Stars</em>. Though he didn’t win, he was proud to have made it to the final four: “I certainly dreamed of making it to the end, but to actually be here is surreal.”</p> <p>Photo: &copy; Getty Images</p>
<h2>INTERVIEW FUN</h2> <p>While Jennifer Lawrence was guest-hosting for Jimmy Kimmel, she interviewed Kim Kardashian, and the result was hilarious! Among other things, Jennifer asked Kim about her sisters, her exes and her oddly shaped contour stick. “I thought this was gonna be fun!” Kim said, laughing, during the interview.</p> <p>Photo: &copy; Getty Images</p>
<h2>AND THE AWARD GOES TO...</h2> <p>Joining the cast of the <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em> as they accepted their fifth Emmy for outstanding drama, Canadian novelist Margaret Atwood (whose novel inspired the series), got a huge ovation and Twitter love for wearing her black purse onstage. “[Atwood] with her purse is every single thing,” said comedian Sarah Silverman.</p> <p>Photo: &copy; Getty Images</p>
<h2>LATE NIGHT HERO</h2> <p>While sharing that his newborn son, William, needed open-heart surgery just three hours after he was born, Jimmy Kimmel broke down during one of his shows, giving a tearful plea for universal health care coverage. </p>
<h2>WARREN BEATTY’S OSCAR OOPSIE</h2> <p>“It was chaos,” said Warren Beatty said of the mix-up when he and his Bonnie and <em>Clyde</em> co-star Faye Dunaway accidentally handed the Best Picture Oscar at the 2017 Academy Awards to <em>La La Land</em> rather than <em>Moonlight</em>. The cause of all the confusion? The legendary actors had been given the envelope for Leading Actress (won by <em>La La Land</em>’s Emma Stone). </p> <p>Photo: &copy; Getty Images</p>
<h2>EMOTIONAL GOODBYE</h2> <p>Watching <em>This Is Us</em> is always an emotional journey, but last season’s finale had us tearing up as we said goodbye to one of the show’s beloved characters: Randall’s biological father, William.</p> <p>Photo: &copy; NBC</p>
