I finally saw it today! : D And let me say, I am quite happy. This has to be my favorite episode of ABDC by far.
JabbaWockeeZ, KILLED IT. Their performance was mindblowing.
But still, Kaba Modern FTW!
I literally freaked out when I saw the aviator sunglasses, because Michael Jackson used to rock those back in the day. And the tutting was just... so detailed and intricate.
Although, I do agree, their performance could've used a little more energy.
P.S. I miss Live in Color. ToT

@ Laughing Platypus:
Fo sho. Fysh and Chicks was amazing. I really don't know understand why they didn't get America's votes. Seriously, during the movie episode of ABDC and Mia was doing the tap dancing, that blew me away.
-sigh- You know what's interesting? Even the hardcore Kaba Modern fans can't wait to see JabbaWockeeZ's next performance, because they're just that good. I have even fallen victim to to that. ._. It's just that, they were so precise and they really radiated Michael Jackson with their dance moves.

@ annie: I agree. This competition is getting intense. :3
@ [F]lavor: I know. gonk I'm falling victim to Jabbawockeez's amazing-ness as well. The last Michael Jackson performance just blew me away. Now I'm really torn... but I'm leaning toward Jabba more now. ;-;
NUUUUUU.

JabbaWockeeZ is an amazing group and if they happen to win ABDC, then I have no regrets. :]
I really did enjoy Kaba Modern's performance though. I know that they have trouble with fancy footwork, but they pushed through it and had an overall great outcome. Kaba seems to use their weaknesses to make them better dancers.
I still really adore Kaba Modern. <3
Oh, and by the way, what's next week's dance challenge? I'm not sure whether I wasn't paying attention or they didn't annouce it. x.x

Laughing Platypus EDIT: YAY! Episode 5 update below!EDIT: Sorry if some of the vids aren't working. Some of them have gotten deleted because of copyright on youtube or something like that. But I'm sure all of you are capable of just typing the dance crew along with the episode number on the search bar in youtube. =)Well I've recently become very interested in this dance competition show (which I believe airs on MTV? Though, I don't know when). which airs on MTV on Thursdays 10/9 Eastern Standard Time....I think that's how you say the time. It's 10pm for me; West Coast. It's basically what it says it is: the best of the best of America's dance crews competing to show off what they've got and, ultimately, to win. But, the most exciting part was when I noticed some of the most popular dance crews of Asian backgrounds. (My Asian pride kicked in....) Two of the dance crews that I know of are the Jabbawockeez (San Diego, CA..and not entirely Asian, but mostly) and the group Kaba Modern (UC Irvine students; Orange County, CA). Both groups are amazingly talented. Here are some clips from youtube (from oldest to most recent): JabbawockeezEpisode 1: http://youtube.com/watch?v=jqcUAerkCksEpisode 2: http://youtube.com/watch?v=tjOhVYCHgFYEpisode 3: http://youtube.com/watch?v=NvnDwysWHr4Episode 4: http://youtube.com/watch?v=InOwPoj8NIUEpisode 5: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZxUTTUZWuagKaba ModernEpisode 1: http://youtube.com/watch?v=1PLO9dISj48Episode 2: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZBrBZogp36gEpisode 3: http://youtube.com/watch?v=jf2WFVkYD_8Episode 4: http://youtube.com/watch?v=vx3imNJ-unwEpisode 5: http://youtube.com/watch?v=mmfvoDBOfLAThere are tons more on youtube. These are just a few to check out. <3 DISCUSS-obviously Jabba or Kaba -dance competitions in general -are YOU part of group, and do you want to show off your dance skills? (in other words, post here) -Asians becoming recognized for something other than their smarts
