Yes, it's another of those types of shows. There seems to be a million of them.
But I love this show. I'm totally addicted. These kids are seriously talented and creative.
My top 3 are: Jabbawakeez, Breaksk8 (it's amazing what they do on skates) and Kaba Modern. I'm still not sure which I like best. Status Quo is really talented with their stunts but they aren't the best dancers and I'm not sure they are as creative with the choreography as the others.
Anyone else watch?
2009 - World Champion New York Yankees!!
I just started watching it recently. I love the Jabbawakez.
"And I wonder, when I sing along with you. If everything
could ever feel this real forever. If anything could ever be this good again."
My son had it on before. I saw some of the skate guys. They're amazing!

One of the best new shows of the year. Jabbawakeez performance in the Michael Jackson episode was legendary.
I happened to catch the Jabbas while flipping through channels a few weeks ago, and now I'm totally hooked -- they HAVE to win.
Kaba isn't bad, but Status Quo does nothing for me. The big dude just looks strange out there.
The Broadway routine was pretty cool, too. Forming the ragtime band at the end?
It's amazing what they come with week to week. But Wanna Be Startin' was definitely the best so far.
On another note, how much of an absolute douche is JC Chasez??
Everytime he opens his mouth I want to shove my fist into it.
When is this show on and what channel?

I was just going to ask this. It sounds like my kind of show.Originally Posted by krystl

I think Thursday nights on MTV at either 9 or 10 - it is mind blowing what these people can do.
Well that explains why I never heard of it. I never watch MTV.

Poor AC Slater.
My kids watch MTV a lot and I know my son has seen it, but I don't know if he watches regularly. Not if it's on at 10 pm, that's for sure, unless they replay it.

I thought the Michael Jackson week was the best for all of the crews by far. I will watch that epsisode whenever it is on.
I was disappointed that no one incorporated his "lean" move. I swore someone would do that and that it would look awesome.

Like all of MTV's shows, it is constantly replayed.

The Lean is uncopyable. No one currently walking the planet can do that besides Michael, and that was 20 years ago.
Besides -- The Lean wasn't a part of the Thriller album. That was from the Smooth Criminal video, and that was a release from Bad.
Replay isn't the word for the way MTV is showing these; abuse is more like it. Good thing everything is digital now, because the tapes would have been worn out by now. I think I've caught part of an episode at least 5 times since Thursday. It could be worse, though -- they could be showing old episodes of Date My Mom or Parental Control.
Since I didn't catch this from the beginning, I found this helpful to get caught up:

The final should come down to JabbaWakeeZ and Kaba Modern. They've consistently been the best from the beginning. And while you're at the link, check out the sidebar where you can see upcoming airings. It makes you wonder if MTV is even showing any other programming right now.
I just saw some clips on youtube.
Loved breaks8's performance to "Beat It." That head stand at the end was sick!
yeah I thought it was great too, it's amazing what they do on skates...I would've broken every bone in my body 4 seconds into the song
"Strickland Propene does not have a vending machine. It smells, and I thank God every day I get home that I didn't get exploded. The end."
I've seen some of those dance crews at lunch (I work near where they film it) and, honestly, they look like retards "in costume" but out of the dance environment.
True about the "lean" being after the Thriller album but as an homage to Michael it would have been cool to see it in there. I am positive that while they were showing clips of the crews watching Michael videos they were watching all kinds of videos to get a feel of his dancing, not just videos from the Thriller album.
I agree with you 100% on who the Top 2 should be. I have no idea what America's fascination with Status Quo is. Don't get me wrong, they are very good, but I would rather have had BreakSk8 in the Final 3 instead of them.

I also like Jabbawakeez and Kaba Modern. Kaba Modern is the only crew left that includes females. But I think Jabbawakeez have a bigger fanbase though.
I don't know how Status Quo got the most votes.
Jabawakeez just brought the house down with their "Evolution of Hip Hop" routine. I'm not sure if Kaba Modern has a chance. They were awesome. The guy a the end spun on his head for so long while incorporating moves in there too. That was crazy!
I wish it was Jabawakeez vs Kaba Modern in the finals but that's not going to happen.
2009 - World Champion New York Yankees!!
it SHOULD be Jabawakeez vs. Kaba Modern, but oh well. Kaba Modern was good, but Jabawakeez were freakin SICK, especially with the headspin at the end....they brought the house down
Edit: Jabawakeez are moving on...they're gonna STOMP Status Quo in the finale!
"Strickland Propene does not have a vending machine. It smells, and I thank God every day I get home that I didn't get exploded. The end."
I agree that Kaba Modern got screwed out of the finals. But oh well.
I thought that those final routines were way too short. They are dancing in the finals and were able to put together their whole routines. I would have liked to have seen more of both.
Status Quo can throw out the tricks and jumps but Jabbawakeez are so much more creative. I just feel like Status Quo is all over the place.
I hope Jabbawakeez win. I'm actually going to vote for them a few times. Usually I don't watch the show when it first airs so I never get to vote. Of course this time voting is open all week and I actually watch the show!
Edit: What in the hell is JC wearing??????
2009 - World Champion New York Yankees!!
I sure hope nobody gets served.
Never left the Betances bandwagon.
It is spelled JabbaWockeez..
Doin' it again in 2010..
He must be, to agree to host this.
My wife loves this show.
Talk is Cheap. Play the Game.
Talk is Cheap. Play the Game.
The craziest thing was in the Jabbawockeez final routine, that one guy was spinning on his back to the exact beat of the song. It was insane. He wasn't even off by a little.

Jaret Wright's 2005 Cy Young Season: 20-3, 3.04 ERA
I wasn't impressed with last night's perfomances. I am still waiting for someone to top Jabba's Michael Jackson episode performance which was insaneeee.
Yep -- that was the performance that hooked me.
Jabbawockeez were in step up 2 the streets, they are awesome, also their head guy kid raiden has a couple of videos come out..and was a star in step up 2, check out the webpage at jabbawockees.com
Doin' it again in 2010..
I dunno why Status Quo is in the final 2 instead of Kaba Modern. They do not deserve to be there. they are good, but a bit sloppy.
JabbaWockeez will win it all.
Argh, dance movies.After watching Stomp The Yard on bootleg I had enough.
Damn, those Jabbas are sick.
For those of you who missed the finale, don't worry -- the O/U on how many times MTV repeats it this weekend is 12.5.
