What in your opinion was the best mystery reveal ever in a tv show or film?
It can be based on the shock of the reveal or how the story evolved or perhaps the performances of the actors involved.

The revelation that (Spoilers) Leland Palmer (Spoilers) was Bob in Twin Peaks, while something the showrunners were firmly against, was probably the best way they could've gone about revealing Laura Palmer's killer.
I may be in the minority but I was really shocked at the reveal that Ward was traitor working for Hydra on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
I had suspected several members at different times but when Ward jumped out of the plane to save Jemma's life, I felt he had proved himself to the team. So I was shocked.
I thought they did a great job with this mystery in the first season of the show.
First episode of this is us. The way the mystery of how all these different characters were connected and came together was done really good imo. It's only one episode so I wouldn't put it up there with show long mysteries but I can't think of anything else atm.
I’d submit the reveal(s) at the end of The Prestige.
Nolan does a great job letting us deduce the horror of Angier’s method for the trick in a very clear manner... but the reveal about Borden’s method is so simplistically bamboozling that it elevates the film in rewatches.
Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?
I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

The Elias reveal in "Persons of Interest". They got so corky they reused the Keyser Soze twist for 5-6 more times.

I can't believe I haven't mentioned this one yet, but it goes down as one of the best for sure.
Who killed Lily Kane on Veronica Mars. That entire first season was AMAZING. All the clues were there but I never suspected the killer until the reveal. An absolutely perfect season with an incredible mystery.
