Emmys “weird” opening sequence mocked by viewers: “Literally one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen on TV”
Emmy 2022 opening dance sequence, which paid tribute to Friends, Law & Order: SVU, Game Of Thrones and a number of other TV shows.On Monday (September 12), at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, host Kenan Thompson began the awards ceremony on the iconic Friends couch, before breaking into a dance routine that was backed by the theme music of the Law & Order spin-off show.However, many of those watching at home seemed to be baffled by the performance and soon voiced their thoughts on social media.“Literally made it about 4 minutes into the Emmys,” tweeted one viewer. “That opening dance routine was literally one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen on TV.”Another wrote: “A hip hop dance number to the Law & Order theme is fuckin’ weird,” while someone else added: “This opening dance sequence is…flat out horrible, I’m sorry.”Others described it as “dancing atrocity“, comparing it to an opening sequence for the VMAs.Not everyone hated it, though.
