highlights reel
Greatest hits montage
A highlights reel is a compilation of the best or most memorable moments from a longer event—a sports game, a career, a season: The broadcast ended with a highlights reel of the championship.
The term extends beyond sports to any curated collection of peak moments.
Social media profiles are often criticized as highlights reels that omit ordinary life and struggles.
