RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:
So, those are the fabulous soirees of fiction, but what about those lower-brow shindigs - the parties on our favorite TV shows that we'd love to crash? There is, of course, Elaine's epic dance fail at her office party on "Seinfeld."

MARTIN: And if you're talking office parties, you have to put "Mad Men" on the list. You think they drank a lot Sterling Cooper Draper and Price on a regular Tuesday night? The holiday parties are the definition of debauchery.
(SOUNDBITE OF TV SHOW)
MARTIN: And for some more wholesome fun, there's always a family dinner party at the Huxtables, where at any moment, a spontaneous, soul filled lip sync performance could break out because the Cosbys are just that great.
(SOUNDBITE OF TV SHOW)
MARTIN: And this is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Rachel Martin. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
