I dont know if anyone here on TL.net is into the dance scene but this show is exciting for me. I think of it as the dance version of american idol, except randy jackson makes rigged decisions once in a while (Kaba modern/TM)


East coast teams are not on par with the west, maybe boogie bots but I have not seen them too much.

Midwest is hilarious with the white boy band group dancin hip hop

The team I liked the most(that made it) was from the South with the crew "So Real"


routine was just sick... and is the group I am rooting for

West was entertaining except not all the teams made it, its obvious this section was the toughest. I hope they have a wildcard for Team Millennia, they had a sick routine.




any bboys/hip hop dancers out there in TL.net??

I'm a popper... don't really post much on here really, just lurk hehehe.

TBH don't like the show that much. Really shows how a lot of the underground Hip-Hop dances are watered down and commercialized.

Saw Do Knock on there though! Glad at least one set of real dancers got through. Choreo is pretty crap imo.

I represent West Coast Popping. Flying snow, if you ever come back and read this you should drop that class w/ Mike Song, and hit up Homeland for some real popping lessons.

I never actually got into ABDC until like the last 3-4 episodes. Which team was TM? Because I thought Kaba Modern seemed pretty good (way better than Status Quo at least =/).

kaba and jabba were easily top tier. status quo was kept by the producers, probably so they wouldnt have two west coast / socal crews in the finals.

Ah I see. For some reason I thought you meant that TM beat KM in some rigged decision last season.

ABDC is a cool show, but it's annoying how a lot of people are on the bandwagon for the JabbaWockeez. Don't get me wrong because they're a great dance team, but honestly we have people copying them for talent shows and every crew on the show said they want to inspire people to dance, NOT copy. Also idiots saying "oh _____ crew sucks and they just copy off of the JabbaWockeez". Pretty much anyone who has little knowledge in dancing would refer to Jabba as the dancing gods.

As for the 2nd season, it was horrible how Fanny Pak was chosen... The only dance crew that looks great to me are the Boogie Bots and Supreme Soul. I'm surprised dance teams like Quest and Gen2 were not on the show.

my tivo only recorded the live audtions for the first three regions.

imo, so real and boogie bots were really strong
all 3 groups from the midwest were boring
the girl groups are hotter this time around, thank goodness

i wonder with 2 judges and probably a thousssssssand teams how hard is it to choose 3 -4 teams who would make it out?
do they really just see them on spot and decide like the show, shows? or do they call them back and place them in a room to do it again seems like a stupid idea if its just 1000 teams and only 4 or 3 get chosen on spot to me. (again what the show shows)

i liked that crew that said they battled Jaba
and boogie bots
also So Real was tight too

the rest are ehh...that latino crew shoulda gone not Sass x7 even though they both arent good

troi oi thang map nai!!!

they go through a lot of pre-audition stuff.

And the crew that battled Jaba "Supreme Soul" have poppers from Soul-Sector/Machine Gone Funk Bionic and Pharcyde, they're ill and would take Jaba in a real battle any day.

A lot of the stuff on the show is rigged it's retarded, but they have to get what sells, and what sells isn't always the people that're the best or most talented.

It was good until Kaba Modern got robbed. Status Quo was nothing compared to Kaba. And the host constantly saying 'Your votes decide America blah blah blah' just pissed me off. I'm done with this show and should have been Kaba vs Jabba finals with Jabba taking it probably. MTV is full of bullshit -_-

I heard like during season 1, when they announced that Status Quo had the most votes, and Jabba and Kaba where the lowest the whole live crowd started BOOing and MTV later then replaced the boo's with cheers on TV

I wouldn't be surprised if that happened lol. During the live audition for season 2 there was booing when the judges chose the stereotypical white cheerleaders over the Latinas' team. Or when Fanny Pak got chosen over Team Millennia.

i honestly prefer Fanny Pak over Team Millennia. if you step back for a second and review the entire crews, Team Millennia doesn't add anything new, nothing refreshing to the whole bunch. at least with Fanny Pak, they show a different side of dance with style and wit. i'm not saying that TM has no personality, but i'm totally over this pnoy-pity stuff, where they're too busy feeling sorry for themselves because their parents want them to be doctors or lawyers or whatever but they're too busy watching the Debut. i'm filipino myself, and i know how that feels, but c'mon, TM and SoReal are too similar... which is a reason why i think they got cut. the show would be too boring if it was all the same. i said my peace... so peace out.
