In Visual Studio for the same thing you have to use the clunky "Watches" feature.

VS has the 'immediate window' which allows you to execute (almost) any statement within the context of the local scope, including intellisense and autocomplete.

Caveat to the use of lambdas... Where, ironically the last time I used .Net was what I needed to inspect the most were subsets of collections or the results of other queries... I always used the function methods for linq over the language extension.

Lambdas are supported in the debugger as of Visual Studio 2015 :)

Thanks.. can you tell I haven't done nearly as much .Net for the past couple years? ;-) Though the .Net core stuff has me relatively excited for the platform again.
