15 Best TV Moments Of 2017 (So Far)

10. Remember That We Suffered - Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

Episode: Will Scarsdale Like Josh's Shayna Punim?

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Season 2 was another great outing for the season: the plot was whackier, the characters weirder, and the musical numbers bigger and better than before.

There were a number of highlights from the back-half of Season 2 (i.e. the episodes that aired in 2017), but when you have Broadway legend Patti LuPone guesting in one of them, and being joined by Broadway star Tovah Feldshuh, you know you're in for a treat. Add in the writing talents of Rachel Bloom, and the fact it's performed as a big Klezmer number, and you have a real highlight.

The lyrics serve as a painfully sharp and funny look back on Jewish history ("Spielberg and Hitler! Remember that we suffered...), while the music and choreography gloriously showcase the series' talents in a whole new fashion, and the vocal performances are of course on-point - as is Rebecca's face during the entire thing.
