A Tribute to Damon's Dancing on The Vampire Diaries

Updated on March 9, 2017 at 10:00 AM

Though things have been kind of a bummer for Damon on The Vampire Diaries lately, we still have nothing but love for the character. In particular: his smolders, his sassiness, and his dance moves. He's memorably shaken it many times, usually while he's drinking, and sometimes with his shirt open. In honor of the series finale on Friday, here is every solid-gold GIF of him dancing on The Vampire Diaries.
