Your favorite dance from a TV show

I was going to do a poll but then I realized I don’t know how. Also, at the moment I can only think of three:

The Elaine Dance

or

The Carlton Dance.

or

The Brady Kids.
What is your favorite (out of these or any other you can think of)?

For me, it’s a toss-up between the Batusi and the Chicken Dance.

The Chicken Dance (take your pick) from Arrested Development

Ohmigosh, I forgot about Batusi! :p:p That is freakin’ delightful. Is that where John and Uma got their dance moves for Pulp Fiction?

I’m going with the Elaine dance. The little kicks and the thumbs out, hilarious, and practically hypnotic. I’ve tried to emulate it occasionally, but apparently I’ve got too much rhythm.

Totally unstealth, unabashed brag here: I won $250 in an Elaine dance contest :cool:

I always got a kick (heh) out of Rerun’s dancing on What’s Happening.

George Jefferson dancing.

Looking for this, I came across a “mix tape” of several comedy characters dancing. Although in the case of Fred Sanford, that’s stretching things.

On a more “serious” note: Mary Tyler Moore dancing on the Dick Van Dyke Show.

This will be a strange answer for me, because I rarely watched the show, but …

There was a scene in one of the later seasons of Glee where the guy in the wheelchair (Marty, maybe? I’m blanking on the name) had a dream sequence in which he danced in a mall to the song “Safety Dance.” I loved that song when it first came out, and I knew just enough about the character on the show to appreciate the sequence.

Plus, it was done as a flash-mob type dance, and the guy who played Marty showed some really cool dance moves. I thought that scene was fantastic.

That’s because THIS was Rerun’s day job.

And the girl in that dance group was Toni Basil.

Second the Batusi and MTM on DvD.

Third: Every dance ever done by a hot space babe on Star Trek (TOS):

Did old Jean-Luc ever get anything like **these **on ***TNG***? Don't think so; he'd rather hang out at Ten-Forward, a real "happening" place! :(

The Perfect Strangers Dance of Joy!

Raj and Howard’s disco roller skating dance

Fry and Leela doing “the robot” while Bender stands there amazed wondering how they are doing that.

Ba ba ba… ba bar barino…

I saw this sketch when it first aired in the 70s, and I didn’t think it was the least bit funny.

But it’s sort of touching now.

Not on Youtube, but those who’ve seen the sketch will recognize this link:

Ha! Another move I used to bust (never won any money for it though :o )

Wednesday and Lurch dancing.

Wait a sec… got the greatest of all here! (Astonished all the Trekkers left this one to me!)
