Awesome / Carnival Row

Go To

  • Vignette kicks off the series by attacking a Marrok and strangling it to death with its own chain.
  • The fact that Darius managed to fight off a werewolf that had gotten so far as to bite him. That must have taken some serious Off Screen Moment Of Awesome-ing.
  • Runyan Milworthy has found employment as Jonah Breakspear's latest tutor, only to be blown off and offered a bribe to give a good report to Absalom. He proceeds to tell the rich brat precisely where he can shove his hush money: "I’ve been brought in to equip you with a little wisdom, so you might vaguely become a more tolerable human being. Take it or leave it, but don’t think you can pay me to lie for you."
  • When Vignette kicks Dombey in the face. That guy's so much of a Hate Sink that the audience cheers.
  • When Ezra discovers that Imogen and Agreus are lovers, he attacks them and Agreus injures him in self-defence. Imogen not only holds her brother at bay with a gun but willingly flees with Agreus, saving him not only from being arrested for harming a human but escaping being sent to the ghetto that Carnival Row has become.
  • At the end of Season 2, Philo is grabbed by the Sparas and enveloped in its wings as it attempts to devour him in the same way it did Jonah. Philo responds by drawing his pistol and blowing it's brains out, causing it to fall down dead and Philo to emerge unscathed.
  • Sergeant Dombey of all people gets one, killing Constable Hatch when he attempts to murder Philo.
