Viewers of Netflix's The Perfect Couple complain that they're all getting distracted by the same thing

Even the cast weren't best pleased about it

If you've been watching a show on Netflix then the most likely one you've been viewing is new murder mystery The Perfect Couple.

It's currently the top show on Netflix and plenty of you have found it a binge-worthy experience to get through.

While it might be the latest Netflix craze to grab your attention there's one aspect of the show which plenty of viewers just can't seem to stomach.

No, it's not the grisly murder and the whodunnit drama the show is built on, that's what they're here to see.

Instead, it's the interminable dance number that pretty much the entire cast performs near the beginning of each episode.

Basically everyone who appears in The Perfect Couple is stood on a beach and they're all performing a choreographed dance together, with what appears to be varying levels of enthusiasm.

It's something lots of viewers have been complaining about, as there's been plenty saying 'that f**king dance scene, man' is souring their opinion of the show.

Fans slated it as 'cringe af' and said they could see 'every single actor dying right now', while another said that was the moment they decided to switch off and give up watching.

Others called it 'so surreal and weird', but admitted that it might actually complement the rest of The Perfect Couple's vibe.

Lots of viewers were left scratching their heads and wondering 'who thought this was a good idea' given how 'weird' it was.

If you thought The Perfect Couple's dancing introduction was a bit naff then you're not alone, as the cast were also less than enthused about it.

It's a show about a murder and the cast are boogieing on down during the introduction like everything is fine.

The Perfect Couple star Meghann Fahy told Variety: “Everyone was on that group saying they didn’t want to do this because we just didn’t understand.

“I actually have a really, really huge issue with learning choreography so I was very nervous about it.”

Ishaan Khatter, who plays Shooter in the Netflix show, said: “I don’t think any of us could make sense of doing this choreography in these characters.

"We’re like, ‘Wait where does this fit into the scheme of things? This was not part of the assignment!’”

While most of the cast were in a state of 'mutiny' over the intro dance, Liev Schreiber was having the time of his life as he happily practiced his dance moves in his trailer and was disappointed that he wasn't on camera much for the sequence.

The Perfect Couple is available to stream now on Netflix.
