Bunheads Farewell Dance

[@John42ification]

Canceling "Bunheads" = Worst Decision Ever

[@lizgalligan7272]

+John42ification Agreed. That show is the reason I'm still a ballet dancer and I miss it so much!!!!!!!!!

[@shinjaokinawa5122]

My Young and very beautiful cousin is a Professional Ballerina and was quite despondent when the show went off the air. She always obtained Validation from the show, and identified with the little blonde girl being blonde herself.

[@mnd124]

It's on hulu!

[@atinyevil1383]

Bunheads failed so that the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel could run. It's unfortunate and makes me sad.

[@gardenlover9663]

I adored the show. So glad I saw this.

[@Scorpia161]

Don't fucking touch me, I'm still not over this...

[@Tribe643]

Same here. Any time I stumble any of these videos it's like re-opening an old wound that hasn't completely healed. It was the rare show that was amazing in so many ways and didn't need to be dark or depressing to achieve that greatness. I just loved this show so much and it deserved so much better than ABC Family, which promoted it so poorly. It never had a chance on the network of Pretty Little Liars.

[@Scorpia161]

tomincmh I agree, it was totally on the wrong network, it was way too grown up for ABC Family.

[@Somaed]

Scorpia161 ABC Family is a garbage network.

[@somethinggoodwillhappensoo7395]

+Somaed agree! !!!!!!!

[@IndyAmy46214]

Somaed Garbage is too kind a term for what they are...

[@lovebroadway1223]

This video just goes to show how powerful dance can be. In three minutes the Bunhead dancers had us reliving an entire season. Whether it made you laugh, cry, reminisce or all three, this simple video hit home and displayed more heart and direction than any other TV show on the air.

[@pattimessenger6214]

I love this farewell dance. It is the only show I’ve seen where the cast and crew wrote a farewell love letter to their adoring fans.

[@jjxoxo94]

Watching this in 2015 and I still don't understand why it was cancelled.

[@shardahartley4328]

+Ji-Hye Han There was a more popular show on the network that went over its budget so they cut some of bunheads funding. They tried to rework the show to fit inside what they were given, but there just wasn't enough money. I recall them taking 3 months to officially cancel the show

[@aratinga77]

+Sharda Hull What? "Pretty Little Liars"? I don't watch "ABC Family" any more. Too dumb.

[@shardahartley4328]

+Sandra Greer yes that was the one! Broke my heart when the network said bunheads just wasn't as marketable.

[@shardahartley4328]

They revived Gilmore Girls after ten years. It's a possibility

[@Bethh802]

Because it was bad. Took half the season to get to what should have been episode 2. It was gilmore girls 2.0. I could go on. If you love it listen to gilmore guys podcast they review the whole show.

[@Midlifemayhemx]

Would live to see hulu or netflix pick it up and continue it

[@mnd124]

It's on hulu now!

[@TheCrankaintdead]

@@mnd124 he meant pick it up and continue, like as in season 2

[@PoetGrl89]

I was so upset that they ended this show. They cut off this and Jane by Design and kept really dumb shows that are all the same. It makes me so mad

[@michellevyanca5280]

I loved jane by design *sobs*

[@rachelp9954]

ikr these were all rly creative shows :(

[@Ashley.nowicki30]

I started crying when the girl who played Jinnie did her dance for I think it was "making whoopie" and the girl who played Sasha started doing her "Istanbul" solo Bye. I'm gonna cry eternally now.

[@princ3ssb4byd0ll]

+HeyIt'sAsh ! and the its so quiet dance

[@LaravonMondberg]

I miss the show, I wish they would continue... 😢

[@rebeccadick1610]

you can find the show on demand

[@latalullah6655]

I wish for more Seasons, as well

[@cnt_cat]

Kinda wish Sutton was sitting in a chair next to Amy at the end, it would've been nice bc it's kinda like the Bunheads intro where in the end the camera pans to her sitting in a chair looking at the girls :,(

[@vanittahmwangi]

This show will always have a special place in my heart

[@shawnswint1521]

Likewise.

[@gordonadams5891]

The show should not have been cancelled so soon. Some of the best writing ever!

[@frankdalla]

Never saw the show, but this farewell dance was strong and emotional. The young people here showed sadness but no fear, and they each probably went on being who they are and will always be..... Talented dancers and skilled performers demonstrating an expression of themselves. Together or alone.

[@harrrrrry]

You should watch the show! It’s available on Hulu in the US. Let me know what you think!

[@snozberries]

There are not enough words to express how much I will miss this show!

[@lauren-krystinamulgrew6315]

Okay I'm a late comer to Bunheads, literally just finished it and knowing that it was going to end didnt make it easier. It is sad to cry over a TV show... but its soooo good. And it was so different to Gilmore Girls. We only had one season :( Amy Sherman-Palladino you are a genuis

[@carolinemixonbraxton4963]

I binged on tubi

[@soyotelo]

I really love this show.. I love everything that Amy sherman does.. it's just a shame that this was cancelled :(

[@pjt3887]

Just found this show after watching Younger. Such a wonderful show!!!. The dance segments,acting and writing was top notch. I think if this show was on now it would have been a hit. I hope you all have a wonderful future and make your dreams come true.

[@dressesindenim7396]

How have I never seen this before now?!

[@maratheblackwarrior]

Okay, they have cancelled the show..I still hope that these guys keep dancing no matter what. THUMBS UP! You did a great job

[@HadassaMoon144]

Ahh gosh.. I never heard of this show until NOW or I would have been watching it when it aired! That always seems to happen to me!

[@shaytizzles475]

I just wish people would give dance shows a chance. I feel like they're often overlooked.

[@cameronkona]

This was such a good show. It made me laugh. It made me cry. I'm not much into ballet but the dancing was captivating. I fell in love with the characters. It was so well done on every level. I was so sad to hear that it had been cancelled. We need more shows like this instead of all the violence running rampant on so many TV shows. Is there anything that we can do to convince ABC to continue with this?

[@coolcutsgal2]

I miss this show! It was clean entertainment and made me forget my pathetic little life for 60 minutes!

[@Vienne518]

Can't believe this show got cancelled. You were showing the world how true dance should be and how it can heal and touch people.

[@vickymaz]

Amy, cast and crew: This show will be missed. You created a wonderful, burgeoning microcosm of shared experience, you brought back the writing voice that, to many of us, rings true of ourselves, and you made sitting on the couch into something much greater than just a mindless waste of time. It's a shame that the industry is a business; one which manipulates most of the public into accepting sub-par entertainment. The rest of us, however, see you for how special you are. Please keep creating.

[@ladyvondingus]

I really wish this show would come back!!

[@MelaniePhoenix]

One of the best shows I've seen in a very long time. So sad to see it go.....

[@XxhijoannxX]

I'm still in pain and shock that this wonderful show was cancelled.

[@Quembembole]

I cried a little watching this. Bunheads was such a great show, and these girls and guys are all so talented! Good luck for all your fututure projects!!

[@bellgirls1108]

Love it! I really liked watching this show. Wish it stayed on the air.

[@embersofficial9567]

I miss this so so so much. Did anyone else catch the Istanbul reference that Julia danced at 2:27? Genius :) Come back Bunheads, and bring all of your lovely actresses/dancers with you!

[@coolcutsgal2]

😭😭😭 Greatest show ever for people to forget life for a while!!🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Sunshyn55231]

Oh captain! My captain!

[@valbrown3913]

Thank you Amy and Bunheads! It was a delightful show.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Nice last dance for the short lived show on what was formerly ABC Family. Assuming they were not paid to do this - it is a nice little farewell they filmed right after it was canceled and it is much appreciated by this fan. Shows how they actually could dance and act.

[@ionnaphotography2313]

I miss this show soooooo much!!!! Please bring it back!!! (I only wish)

[@cargoat]

There's a petition going around to bring Bunheads back. Needless to say, I signed it.

[@jnlesak1]

Ack its too late :( Great article as to why: www.vulture.com/2014/06/amy-sherman-palladino-sutton-foster-violet-bunheads.html

[@chechong4]

I honestly wish this show lasted longer than it did. it was a great show for all those dance lovers

[@LinuxGeeksRock]

I absolutely love Bunheads. And, no, I'm not a teenager--I'm 50+. It's sad that such a unique, charming, and interesting show isn't given its fair chance to win viewers and ratings. Well, thanks for the lovely farewell dance. At least it's something...

[@emmersp12]

ugh, i am so upset we aren't getting a season 2. this show had just been finding its footing towards the end of s1 and i had really grown to love it. hopefully we will see all of you talented kids/everyone involved in something soon:) thanks for 1 great season:)

[@dcamonkeys13]

I am going to miss this show so much! I loved the dancing, and the humor, and the drama, and the dancing, and the singing, and the dancing. I must get the DVDs so I can watch the dances again...there will be a DVD release, I hope. Of course, then I will be sad again that there is no more to the story.

[@kinetikfox16]

This show was my absolute favorite! I'm really ashamed of how it went down too! The creator, cast, dancers, crew and anyone else involved with this show were the best thing that could've happened on tv. I will miss Bunheads for the rest of my life,

[@viennaboo5274]

i love the show so much TT^TT they are all fantastic dancers and actors/actress

[@janakitambe3924]

Heart breaking a little bit. Such a good show.

[@shlannaseibert7590]

Brooklyn Babadook at the end 😁

[@jameslarosa2396]

Still my favorite show this century.

[@alexisrestum11]

7 years and i'm still not over this.

[@TattyDarling]

ITS NOT EFFING FAAAAAIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRR .....*chucks a hissy fit that a toddler would be proud of*.....

[@ChanelLindsey]

ABC Family drops all the good shows. Lying Games and now Bunheads this is crazy.

[@laurijaffe8898]

I miss this show too - wish they'd try it one more time!

[@mckayalreidler602]

I want this show back so badly

[@MagicTDS5]

I am in tears right now. :'( Please bring this masterpiece back.

[@ronksroom]

awww I love this show......I wish everyone the best of everything with their future. I loved all of the characters and the dialog was brilliant. I loved watching the dancing and the story line was interesting. Thanks for the good times.

[@zachfeedman8709]

wow may 2017 and I'm still not over this or this show

[@zachfeedman8709]

july 2021 this is in my recommended lol

[@iamclassicforlife]

The mark of true performers…always go out with a show. Bunheads Forever!!

[@krystalsaucedo5842]

I really miss that show it was so good. I didn't even know it was canceled till the week after the last episode

[@bugnbubbasmom]

Sad to hear that this is it! Kept hoping the network would get their act together. This was a wonderful show & much like Gilmore Girls, could have gone far! Thanks for sharing!

[@rustysteam]

What a shame. I came to love all these girls in these roles. I wish them all well and success in their futures. Oh Captain my captain....excellent choice of song here too...really brought back memories when I was young...

[@ulricrainard]

...such a good show. Just enjoyed your first season on Netflix... watching with my wife. Our daughter danced. We were totally embraced by the experience. This represented well the creators and dancers and the fans of good theater and production. Bravo. Sad too see you have ended. good luck in all u do.

[@kayleeidk982]

At first Sasha seemed prickly but she quickly became my favorite character💜💝💖

[@TheLiviaMulder]

I'm so a huge fan of Bunheads. But I never knew about this video! My heart is broken.

[@jasonbakermusic]

this was a great show! its a crime that it is no longer around. i of course love ASP's writing, but mostly loved having a show that i could watch with my wife and daughter. all the best to you in future endeavors

[@AcademicEndeavor]

I miss this show so much...

[@thil28]

I miss this show soooo much! It was quirky n cute, funny, sad n so lovely little dance routines each episode, great chemistry with the cast, too... Why why why? With so much crappy shows out there why did this lovely little gem get cancelled so fast!!!???

[@regis387]

i'm 10 years late, but thank you so much 🙂

[@snozberries]

Amy- in case you read this- the writing was brilliant. The cast amazing and the show!m? It had heart!!! It deserved better treatment!

[@XTReporting]

I think it's great that they came together to do this for us. Thank you.

[@danny2812]

2018 and I still miss this show. :(

[@Nantte]

So, so sad... I was waiting for the next season... Amy, we love your shows. Thankyou for sharing your amazing imagination, brilliant writing and intelligent stories, but most of all your heart trough this characters. We are gonna miss all the girls... I'm gonna miss Michelle so much :( This world is sinking... everyday there is more crap on tv, this should have gone at least 4 seasons...

[@1968DodgePolara]

I watched the whole season of Bunheads for the first time this pass week and I'm not much into dancing but this show was well put together acting ,presentation,storyline, real life family drama that anyone can relate too and it dose not lack in any department WHY was this show canceled in the first season? Dose anyone know why it was giving the Axe? I have seen other shows that was shit and keeps going on seasons after seasons.I stopped watching them after 4th episode of the first season, so this escapes me why this show was caned.

[@jnlesak1]

It's all a numbers game (ratings) and people preferred watching Pretty Little Liars and all the other crap that's on ABC Family over this quality show. It's sad! The writing on this show was BRILLIANT!

[@katied1964]

Pretty little liars is amazing. It is not crap

[@kathlens182]

katie Austin Compared to bunheads sorry sweetie it is.

[@lilomlly]

miss this show so much!

[@diamondevans5324]

I wanna play in their sandbox once more tho 😢

[@birdsofrhiannon]

I miss this show so, so much! Even my boyfriend liked it! :(

[@huginmayday3023]

where are Boo and Melanie? :(

[@latalullah6655]

Probably working on something else and couldn't get away

[@frankbiggs5589]

Thanks for a grand farewell even though it wasn't time to stop playing in this sandbox!

[@discosister]

So sad Bunheads isn't coming back! I've been missing it and looking so forward to it's return!

[@lovingwithart]

been writing a story about ballet girl and never know anything about ballet and even bunheads. ballet taught me alot. great performance btw

[@Unread91]

I want this show back! Please!

[@StoryMapsDanYouTube]

Nice tribute to the show! I enjoyed it and was sad to hear it was canceled.

[@brokendoll027]

Seeing this made me cry, because the "Bunheads" kids are so great in dancing, and they all get improved in this clip.

[@ochiejochee]

i love those black point shoes

[@cindydesigns]

I'm glad they put this dance up. :) They are all so talented!

[@alleycat2502]

This goodbye video was the equivalent of ‘we could have been something amazing’

[@turgsh01]

Just finished watching the show again in 2024 (might be my 5th time, I don't know anymore). Decided to search for this video so I could re-watch the farewell again. Big fan of Gilmore Girls and Bunheads. Can't stand most of the crap tv airs these days, but those 2 shows will always be something I watch over and over. I haven't watched The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel yet as it doesn't really look like something I'd enjoy, but then again, with Amy Sherman-Palladino, who knows. If someone could plz compare that show with the other two, it might help me decide if it's worth watching or not. Like, does it still have the witty quick conversations and references to interesting things that happened in the past, etc?

[@yasnaynavarrete7411]

cry every frigging time i remember the show

[@Danni_rb]

i really loved this show :(

[@maceksandra9535]

oh how i want this tv show back :(

[@tatianabelousova9883]

Great show! Bring it back, please!!!

[@denycast]

i loved the "Istanbul" reference. I´m going to miss this. I should learn the balled by myself. :-)

[@annahorselove20]

[@poptimystic]

Classy and emotional way to say goodbye. I will miss you Bunheads.

[@toddlatyak6141]

[@onlyakb]

such a shame it got cancelled, I really liked the show!! and the writing was freaking awesome!!

[@paigeolson3053]

So sad this show was cancelled, my husband and I watched ti together and we both loved it so much.

[@SheaShellsNYC]

Thank you boys...thank you girls...thank you Amy. I am desolate with the passing of Bunheads, all sweet and lovely and hilarious. And a final thank you

[@MoniBolis]

Such a great little show :D

[@PoPo12469]

Watching this makes me so sad I love this show it was a good show it had everything sarcasms, good dialogo that doesn't come easy, great acting, a flow a good flow like one you get hook on and best of all the art in it the music the dancing with passion just love it if it wasn't a cliche show like pll I know its it good but still getting kind of cliche nothing new about it but this show this one man it was amazing truly amazing

[@lexmonae4506]

I loved this show sooo much I cried when they cancelled it 😭😭

[@Zubbum1]

Aww I'm gunna miss the show. I hope all the girls in it continue with acting and dancing.

[@RogueStorm80]

[@ashleyodvody7965]
