So CBS aired a special promising "TV's Greatest Surprises" (as determined by a Nielsen Entertainment survey).

Fortunately, here's a list of their top 30 of TV's Greatest Surprises - so you don't have to spend all night actually watching them! (Towards the end, it just seemed like one surprisingly grisly death scene after another.)
 
Though they scoured through 60 years of television, if you believe their list, only four of TV's most surprising moments happened prior to the 1980s.
