PLEASE WATCH THIS: Mario Lopez Dances, Does Splits, Remains Cheesy, and Also Fine

One of the many perks of being a pop culture blogger, other than the Barq’s Rootbeer Jacuzzi in the break room, is that every now and again, a kind publicist will send out a delicious video nugget of amazingness that will absolutely blow our minds. It’s a rare occasion, but when it happens, it feels so right the wait is worth it. The following is one of those videos.

This Saturday, the Oxygen Network will be airing a movie called Husband For Hire, where former Saved By The Bell breakdancer Mario Lopez plays a — get this — husband for hire who breakdances. Minds? Blown, right? This exclusive clip sent to us below features Mario pulling out some of his classic dance moves for a backyard full of people that may or may not include Erik Estrada. The folks over at Oxygen added some Pop-Up Video like embellishments to help you, the viewer, understand that there is actually a plot to the movie, though clearly we would have no objections to an entire movie featuring Mario Lopez dancing and popping collars hither and tither.

Long introductions aside, PLEASE WATCH THIS! Here’s the only reason you’ll need: The last line. Without ruining it, check it out.

“Husband for Hire” premieres on Oxygen Saturday, January 19th at 8pm et/pt, and also stars Vanessa from The Cosby Show. I’m officially labeling this movie a “television event” now.
