'America's Best Dance Crew' busts a move
The two crews remaining for tonight's finale, Super Cr3w and SoReal Cru, specialize in different types of dance under the same urban umbrella...
ABDC has hit excellent numbers for viewers and ticket requests.
When the explosion of dance crews and "battling" happened in the late '70s and early '80s as hip-hop grew, competitive reality television was years away. But with the popularity of “American Idol,”“Dancing With the Stars” and “So You Think You Can Dance,” a group dance competition such as "Randy Jackson Presents America’s Best Dance Crew” on MTV was probably inevitable.
Now, as its second season draws to a close, the show can lay claim to being one of the most popular on MTV -- it draws celebrity fans (Miley Cyrus), millions of votes (39 million for last year's finale) and credibility in the hip-hop dance community.
The two crews remaining for tonight's finale, Super Cr3w and SoReal Cru, specialize in different types of dance under the same urban umbrella, one that stretches from the back alleys of the "boogie-down" Bronx to the streets of the Philippines (where the current world hip-hop dance champions hail from). “America’s Best Dance Crew” co-creators Howard and Karen Schwartz -- also creators of the USA and World hip-hop dance championships -- have embraced the kids who live the lifestyle worldwide, helping make the show a must-watch affair that may soon receive a greenlight for a third season.
