Bunheads is a series that aired on ABC Family, created by Amy Sherman-Palladino of Gilmore Girls fame.Michelle Simms is a classically trained dancer who works as a Vegas showgirl. After she is rejected from an audition for a touring production of Chicago without getting a chance to perform, she drunkenly marries Hubbell Flowers, a traveling shoe salesman who lives in a house with a fantastic view of the Pacific in a town called Paradise. Hubbell fails to tell Michelle that he lives with his mother, Fanny, who runs a ballet school attached to the house.Often considered a Creator-Driven Successor to Gilmore Girls, Bunheads was canceled in 2013 after only one season. | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other | |
Bunheads / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: It's heavily implied that Melanie and Charlie do love each other, despite insulting every single chance they get, as Melanie finds it strange that he doesn’t insult her back at one point. In "I'll Be Your Meyer Lansky," Melanie watches Charlie get publicly dumped by his girlfriend. She finds it funny at first, but when she sees he's actually hurt by this, she impulsively tugs on the girl's ponytail and knocks her to the floor the next time she sees her. | |

It's the number of a different girl he was flirting with because his phone was dead. Later, he asks her to talk him up to Boo's friend Ginny. | |

In "A Nutcracker in Paradise," everything is going swimmingly and then Michelle accidentally maces the entire cast of "The Nutcracker Suite". In "Blank up, it's time", the postcoital conversation takes a sharp turn when Michelle mentions Hubbell and starts welling up with bottled-up grief. | |

Bunheads / int_e195807e | comment |
Childhood Marriage Promise: It's not official or anything, but Josh did give Ginny his grandmother's ring. Everybody refers to them as "married". | |

Lovely Assistant | |
Bunheads / int_e90b789a | comment |
Lovely Assistant: Michelle briefly works as a backup dancer and assistant for a stage magician and, at one point, is demoted from holding a bird as part of a trick to just standing there. | |

Technician Versus Performer | |
Bunheads / int_ef3d1b57 | comment |
Technician Versus Performer: Carl considers Sasha the Technician and Boo the Performer, arguing that while Sasha's dancing is technically perfect, she has "ballet brain" and can't adapt, while Boo can. | |

Will They or Won't They? | |
Bunheads / int_fdc1e848 | comment |
It seemed like Grant, the rich guy on top of the hill, was introduced as a Will They or Won't They? potential love interest. Kind, handsome and lived conveniently nearby. But after his introduction, we never saw him again. | |

Overcomplicated Menu Order: Inverted when Michelle goes to the local coffee shop to buy a simple cappuccino but the pretentious barista refuses to make it, assuring her he knows what coffee order is for the best. | |
