Nothing before or since compares to Bunheads. The writing is superb. The casting is superb. The acting is superb.

[@ArtdevotedAnnied]

I loved this show, it's heartbreaking it lasted for so little.

This show is the ONLY reason I would turn to ABC Family. Really. Can't stand those teenage annoying people. Sutton Foster and the writing of Amy Sherman-Palladino (and Kelly Bishop) just were wonderful. All former ballet kids, even horrible ones like me, appreciated this show.

[@maria.whiddon]

Yet another show that came on that I looooved! And was cut so short

[@Nigeltufnel711]

I could listen to Amy Sherman-Palladino all day. No filter whatsoever. Also the first reference I've heard to jacks in many, many years. And I didn't know what she meant by "Moose Murders," but thanks to Google, I do now, so that was pretty cool, too.

[@temihorowitz8308]

Over too soon but not forgotten. I miss Bunheads. But especially I miss the bright smart dialogue that is essential Amy Sherman Pallidino. Enough brutality. Please please bring this kind of show back!

[@calculusfan1]

I wanted to see the clips! I'm still in Bunheads withdrawal!

[@bluedancelilly]

PLEASE do a remake or a season 2 or something!!! Anything, please! I love this show.

[@latalullah6655]

Such amazing quality on every level. I would love to see more Seasons of this show.

[@nilasekar7094]

I know that many people have said, this but I need this show to be back so badly......

[@stanleydrive740]

This was a great class for a budding writer☺️

[@NealCampbell]

So excited the whole panel is now available!

[@iamclassicforlife]

I LOVE BUNHEADS!!!

[@zachfeedman8709]

For some reason I feel like Amy doesn't like ABC Family.

[@logancomics]

50:01 - 51:42 hearing Amy vent about music. What a treat :D

[@humamotasem7287]

Bring this show back!!!!! If not the show then At least write a book about it :(

[@tres9007]

I wish the 4 girls were there....

[@John42ification]

Wish that it was available on DVD! Didn't get to see all the episodes!

[@autumnde-morette8883]

John42ification It's available on iTunes xx

[@maeri-jodavey3565]

I wish Netflix would take it on

[@autumnde-morette8883]

Sutton is such a cute dork :)

[@gleefan3376]

"you're doing jazz, or you know you're doing meth.."

[@lynnmckenna9934]

Season 2 please!!!

[@VMK86x]

Why are all the clips missing? Is that some kind of legal thing?

[@mistymanriquez3480]

netflex youll have my vote if you take bunheads

[@randalllaue4042]

There’s so much in her head that only she can put it organized. There are so many things that happen to cast and “Environment” the fire that ruins the set…

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Cannot make fun of ABC Family anymore... does not exist. Now called Freehold I think. Amy Sherman-Palladino is funny however.

[@roter13]

Freeform

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

roter13 Right, thanks.

[@karenkaren3189]

My one complaint about the show is that a lot of the humor was kind of inappropriate for a family audience. It was fine for older teens and adults, but I think "family" means that anyone can watch it. The creator is a very funny woman, but kind of coarse. It makes sense to me now that she would think it was a family show.

[@AGZEBRA22]

The thing is, if you watch many other ABC Family shows, they are MUCH worse. Not necessarily on the humor spectrum, but some are scarier or handle sensitive topics or deal with many adult issues so the only "family" part of ABC Family is 25 Days of Christmas and the occasional Disney movie.

[@jaeves007]

Yeah, let's not forget Pretty Little Liars which is not family friendly whatsoever and it had a ridiculously long run.
