They are the scenes we watch over and over again — the scenes we can never seem to get enough of, and the scenes we remember for years to come.

While it was a little tough to choose them this year, we managed. And without further ado, our final installment of articles for the year of 2017.

A character is only as good as the actor/actress who breathes life into them. The actor or actress puts their blood, sweat, and tears into ensuring that we’re able to understand the deeper nuances, which make the character special. And these 10 performers weren’t difficult to single out this year as they made each of their characters unbelievably relatable, complex, and beautifully evocative. (A special PSA, you will not see any performers, specifically Elizabeth Moss from The Handmaid’s Tale on this list because while I thought she was unbelievable, and definitely one of the strongest of the year, I couldn’t finish the
