20 Most Paused TV Moments Of 2016
1. Eye Popping Violence - The Walking Dead
The build-up to The Walking Dead’s season seven premiere and the reveal of Negan’s victim was the most hyped TV moment of the year. In retrospect, anticipating a scene where someone gets their head caved in feels wrong somehow, but there you go.
It was Glenn who famously met his end in the comic thanks to Lucille, so it wasn’t a huge shock to see events play out in a similar way on the show. The sheer, unrelenting bleakness of it was the real shocker, and the vision of Glenn’s mangled face – complete with his popped out eye – sent shockwaves through the audience.
This shot has since become - for better or worse - an iconic still, and will undoubtedly go down as one of the show’s most heartbreaking scenes.
