Once upon a time, Dance Moms was one of the biggest hits on cable TV.
Now, Lifetime is attempting to capitalize on its success with a reunion special set to air in 2014.
Airing from 2011-2019, the hit series focused on Abby Lee Miller as she ran her Abby Lee Dance Company.
That entailed her coaching a team as they learned their dances and competed in tournaments.
The series' success probably stemmed from the drama between Miller and the contestants' parents.
If you watch Dance Moms online, you know what we mean: Abby had countless spats with the parents throughout the show's eight-season run.
Much of the arguments ranged from Abby's treatment of the children to parents being displeased about creative choices from Abby.
It was a lot, and now, it's time for some of the show's most famous faces to return and unpack all of that drama.

Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller sent social media into a frenzy after revealing she is attracted to high school football players in a now-viral podcast clip.
The dance studio owner, known for instructing JoJo Siwa and Maddie Ziegler, joined Sofia Franklyn on her podcast, Sofia with an F, where she began discussing the 1984 film All the Right Moves. “Have you seen All the Right Moves? That’s the best movie ever,” said Miler. “You know, high school football player— that’s my downfall, I like the high school football players. I still like them,” highlighting her infatuation with high school athletes.
