10 Best Dance Sequences In TV Shows
While musical episodes have a strong place in TV, the best dance sequences stand out for being well-choreographed, emotional, or surprising. Even beyond dedicated musical shows like Glee or The Get Down, plenty of more serious shows include dance sequences at some point. Whether they have the characters performing the dance, represent something else, or are used within a character's imagination, plenty of TV shows have surprisingly well-crafted and enjoyable dance numbers at some point in their run.Typically, a dance number is a chance for a TV show to have a bit of fun or give the audience something funny without too much in the way of stakes.The Fresh Prince of Bel Air has plenty of well-known scenes, but few are more widely beloved than the scene in the season three episode "Asses to Ashes." In the episode, Carlton first pairs his iconic dance to "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones.The Umbrella Academy isn't a show that takes itself too seriously, with plenty of comedic moments and unexpected asides. It even has more than one dance number, as the very first episode shows the Hargreeves siblings dancing to "I Think We're Alone Now." However, the beginning of season 3 has a scene that has become legendary among the fandom.
