Schitt's Creek is forever an iconic show, and its six seasons are treasured among its fans. The Rose family is well-known for their quirks and eccentricities, their personalities certainly standing out in their new small town home. However, there are certain scenes that stand out more than others, given the interactions between the Roses, the antics they're up to, and the like.
Audiences certainly remember Moira's iconic outfit when she officiated David's and Patrick's wedding, and the time Moira and David attempted to cook dinner for their family, but failed to understand what it meant to fold the cheese. Moments like these are what make Schitt's Creek so popular and lovable, and beloved by fans.
When Moira And Johnny Set Out To Buy A Car
In Season 3, the Roses set out to buy a vehicle. Johnny and Moira dress down, trying to play the part of low-class individuals, and of course, Moira takes things a bit too far. Between her accent and story regarding how she was snatched as a baby for the human black market by Russian mobsters, the scene gets ridiculous and hilarious pretty fast. They do get a discount, but not because of Moira's act.
When Moira Threatened To Air Dry In The Street
In Season 1, while the Rose family is still adjusting to their new town and lifestyle, Moira has a bit of a breakdown when she is left without a towel following a shower. Johnny is outside chatting with Jocelyn when a distressed Moira appears and subsequently threatens to air dry in the street, and Jocelyn suggests taking Moira out for a day of pampering. Moira is known for being theatrical and eccentric, but air drying in the street definitely stood out among her freak-out moments.
When Moira Officiated David And Patrick's Wedding
Moira is always over-the-top. The outfit she chose to officiate her son's wedding in is certainly iconic, and one of her best-known outfits in the series. It was a memorable and heartwarming scene to watch Moira marry her son to his true love, and even she could not refrain from being at least a little emotional.
It was one of the best things she ever did, and definitely one of the sweetest moments the show had to offer; it provided a perfect scene for the series finale.
When Alexis Got Way Too Much Milk
Johnny is horrified to find out his daughter has acquired 400 dollars worth of milk, when all he wanted was 12 pints, and not "things" of milk. Alexis doesn't even realize her mistake until her father starts raising his voice in his panic, considering he will be unable to sell the raw milk. It's an unforgettable Alexis Rose moment. Later in the episode, Johnny, Roland, and Alexis get caught with the raw milk and are forced to dump it on the side of the road, further worsening the milk situation.
When The Roses Found David In Amish Country
Moira, Johnny, and Alexis find David out in a field in the Season 2 opener, and it's nothing short of a classic scene. Between Moira's preoccupation with her bag and Alexis offering her brother a juicy update on her relationship with Mutt, it's pretty funny, especially as they all yell across the field at one another. David stands out anywhere; especially so in Amish country. Plus, it's pretty hilarious, and ironic, that Alexis had the information they needed to find David all along, and yet because she failed to respond to a text, it took that much longer to find David, who was pretty insulted that it took three days for his family to come for him.
When Moira Was The Spokesperson For A Local Winery
In Season 1, Moira lands the job to be the spokesperson in a commercial for a local winery. She needs Johnny's support throughout the process, but even her husband can't save her when she majorly butchers the pronunciation of Herb Ertlinger's name and randomly offers alternatives that are nowhere close to the actual name.
It didn't help matters considering she was also heavily intoxicated, but it made for an iconic scene.
When David, Johnny, And Moira Reacted To A Positive Pregnancy Test
The reactions of the Rose family are priceless when Johnny discovers a positive pregnancy test in the trash in David's and Alexis's bathroom. Naturally, the family assumes that it belongs to Alexis. Moira goes off the deep end, turning hysterical quickly, and David admits he's not emotionally available for a baby in true David fashion, leaving Johnny to be the one to talk with Alexis. The scene is hilarious and definitely a classic in the series.
When David's Family Walked In On Him And Jake
David certainly wasn't anticipating anyone to be home, let alone his entire family, who all caught him in an "afternoon delight" with Jake. David is understandably not too thrilled at the idea, and Moira says one of her most iconic lines in this scene, calling David a "disgruntled pelican." Poor David was certainly embarrassed beyond all reason, but his family didn't exactly take their cue and leave him and Jake alone right away.
When Alexis Auditioned For Cabaret
Moira did everything she could to prevent her daughter from auditioning for Cabaret, but to no avail. Instead, Alexis went on to perform "A Little Bit Alexis" in front of Moira and Jocelyn, which was certainly iconic for audiences but did nothing to earn Alexis the part.
Jocelyn surely understood why Moira went out of her way to try to stop Alexis after seeing Alexis's performance. However, audiences definitely wanted to watch Alexis's audition on repeat.
When Moira And David Attempted To Cook A Family Dinner
Audiences certainly remember this memorable moment in the series, in which David and Moira teamed up and attempted to cook a family dinner. However, when neither one of them understood the meaning of folding the cheese, the experience turned disastrous, and Moira later confessed to her son that she'd lost some of her essential life skills over the years, including making meals. While a disaster for the mother and son, it was a hilarious scene for audiences.
