Dancing baby

Dancing Baby was a popular video file of an animated, 3D rendered baby dancing for several seconds, with dance moves that are humorously unlike a typical baby. It was distributed widely over the Internet. The dancing baby originated as a motion capture demo file for the 3D modeling program 3D Studio Max.
After making the rounds on the Internet, it was featured as a recurring hallucination on the television program Ally McBeal. On the series, the baby was meant to signify the ticking of the lead character's biological clock.
Several edited versions and parodies were created shortly after, including a drunken baby.
The baby usually dances to the intro of Blue Swede's cover of the song Hooked on a Feeling.
In the television series Millennium, the episode Somehow Satan Got Behind Me features a demon that looks and moves like the Dancing Baby.
