The thing about that scene in Fresh Prince is, Will then tries to keep it together for a few seconds, and defiantly vows to be a better father once has the chance, because there's nothing Lou can ever teach him about how to love his kids. And then, he just breaks. The absolute dejection in his voice, when he asks a question no child should ever ask regarding their own parent--"How come he don't want me, man?"--was such an emotional gut punch, that you can hear other cast members crying off-camera.

During that MASH episode, Hawkeye repressed the memory and remembered that it was a chicken that died. But because his brain couldn't let it go he was breaking down. So the shrink was called in and after many talks, Hawkeye unwillingly remembered it was a baby and not a chicken. If you can watch that episode and keep your eyes dry you are not human. For me, that scene takes the number 1 spot on this list followed closely by All in the Family.

World War I Remembrance Day Poppies are a symbol of respect and remembrance of those who died in World War I. This poppy flower meaning came about because the the field poppy, hardy yet delicate, was a common part of the landscape on the Western Front during the Great War. After being heavily bombed and scarred, the land did not lend itself to growing much. In his famous poem, “In Flanders Fields,” Canadian-born John McCrae wrote about this pretty red flower that grew over the graves of those who had given the ultimate sacrifice and that beautified the devastated countryside.

I can't remember the exact circumstances, but Will is responsible for Carlton overdosing on drugs and everyone in the family has a strong reaction to him almost dying. Uncle Phil comes close to disowning Will. This is the episode that proved to me that Will Smith could act because he acted the hell out of the scene where he had to face that he had almost gotten his cousin killed and how hard it would have affected him. I know I didn't imagine this episode. No one at these list channels seems to remember it.
