* [[BigBad The Evil Queen]] of ''Series/TheTenthKingdom'' gives a whole series of these to [[PluckyGirl Virginia]] in her MagicMirror room, but the most memorable occurs just before she compares their beauty in one of the mirrors and [[KickTheDog tries to strangle her]]:
-->'''Evil Queen''': "[[ParentalAbandonment You were unwanted, that's plain to see]]. Haven't you always known that, secretly? That you were the ugly duckling. And now you've given yourself delusions of grandeur, thinking you were capable of great things. But no... you were right in the first place. You are plain. Plain and ''ugly''."
* ''Series/TwentyFour'': Aaron Pierce calling out President Logan. Glenn Morshower ad-libbed the final line of his speech.
-->'''Pierce''': There is nothing that you have said or done that is acceptable to me in the least. You're a traitor to this country and a disgrace to your office. And it's my duty to see that you're brought to justice for what you've done. Is there anything else, Charles?
* On ''Series/{{The 100}}'' former-President Dante Wallace delivers one of these to his son (and [[TheUsurper usurper]]) Cage Wallace.
-->"You've killed us. One week in office, and you've managed to turn neighbor against neighbor, you've made the outsiders hate us more than they already did, you lost our outer defenses, and now a door that hasn't been breached in 97 years is going to fall, and an army of savages is going to flood these halls, killing every last one of us."

Added DiffLines:

** The fictional courtroom dramas of the 1980s – namely, ''Series/TheJudge'', ''Superior Court'' and ''Divorce Court'' – had their fair share of stories where the judge would angrily rebuke one of the litigants, perhaps a witness or an attorney as well.
*** One memorable example in ''Superior Court'' came when the judge snapped at the jury after it acquitted a college football star of sexual assault charges, even though the evidence was clear that he was guilty, and threatens to have the verdict thrown out, although in the end she admits there's little she can do. [[spoiler: The college football star went on to a career in the pros, while his victim endured so much harassment she dropped out of college.]]
*** On ''The Judge'', one of the most memorable examples came after a hearing where three people participated in a CycleOfRevenge series of sexual assaults against the other. Judge Franklin (the main protagonist in the series) was so disgusted he dispensed with his usual "be kind to each other" tagline (which he delivered after most cases) and ordered a formal criminal investigation against all three of them. Another time, after a mentally deranged man snapped in court during a custody hearing and – after gaining control of a gun and trying to aim at Franklin – accidentally shoots his own son. As his son cries in pain and viewers are wondering whether he'll live or die, Franklin tells him basically, "Look what you've done now" as he reminds him why he was at a custody hearing to have his rights terminated.
