The best thing about season two ofBigLittleLieswere the screams (and the coats).
Its the screams that turnBig Little Liesinto Big Little Liars, and thats why it is watchable.
Celestes dream scream
What Have They Done?
At the end of the song, Jane screams, First day of school!
Madeline screams I want more!
Renata wants a moment
Tell-Tale Hearts (Season Two, Episode Two)
Another scream in a car!
What would this show be without these?
But Gordon doesnt want to talk because being a dad is too hard!
Instead, he initiates sex with her in the office bathroom.
In this scream, Renata calls Gordon out for using sex to avoid the conversation.
Its a good scream for sure, but Renata has far better ones on the horizon.
Renata screams, My eye!
It is a stunning, underrated moment in television history.
Jane thinks she found the man who raped her and confronts him.
Celeste screams in therapy
During a therapy session, Celestes therapist asks her to imagine Perry abusing Madeline.
Its a powerful moment for Celeste, who imagines this for a few seconds until she cant take it.
She screams No, no, no, no, no while slamming her fist on the table.
Its a more serious and powerful scream than most onBig Little Lies, which is why its so effective.
Dont contact me about this, dear reader!
Congratulations ahead of time to Meryl Streep on her inevitable Emmy for this scene alone.
There are no more words.
Thank you, Renata, and thank you, Laura Dern, for your screams.
