Nice! I predict that the winners will be a breakdancing crew.

It's also on at 6pm for us. Just watched it now.

wtf with the crew that got cut... that was bullshit. That whatever King group should have been cut. or the country group...

Vouge evolution and artistry in motion should have at least been in the bottom 3.

Honestly, most of the crews don't even look like they want it. I remember the first episodes from the past seasons, and this one lacked intensity. However, the crews are pretty good.

I'm putting my money on the crew from Seattle to win. If not, it's gonna be a bias for a girl crew to win since a gimmick victory is inevitable.

There wasn't any crew that really stood out for me. I think Fr3sh was cut way too early though.

Stop watching this, because the judges are too bias.

Like I said before, no one is hungry. Expect some kind of bullshit win by that Vogue Evolution crew or one of the all-girl crews.

I'm probably not gonna bother watching. Let's give the win to an Asian crew and call it a day.

Caught half of it. Nothing really stood out.

ABDC should get rid of their "drama angle" that they do for every crew. It's annoying and doesn't belong in a dance tournament. Every time that comes on I just :rolleyes: everytime thinking "here we go again another person's personal sob story publicized."

Maybe they can compare themselves to that cheerleader group from last season but no way they are even remotely comparable to Beat Freaks

I haven't seen enough whether to judge if We Are Heroes are comparable to Beat Freaks in overall skill level, but I would say that as a pop locking crew they are more comparable to the break dancing Beat Freaks than they are to the NBA dance team Fly Khicks.

I would add that We Are Heroes' first performance was VERY good, and that almost every member of the group is a better pop locker than even the best of the Beat Freaks. I'm interested to see how they handle other styles of dance. I also think this could be the first year that a breaking crew doesn't win. Massive Monkeys are great breakers but I get the feeling they could have less spectacular transitions and choreography, much like Super Cr3w. The reason why Super Cr3w won was because they performed so many mind blowing feats, but they are clearly inferior in choreography compared to both Jabba Wockeez and Quest Crew.

that pisses me off with pretty much every one of these shows.

i don't care if you cry, or what kinda hardships you've had. either perform, or shut up.

too used to hockey i guess (ie crosby playing with a broken leg, and the public only finding out after the playoffs were done)

and there's a tranny on the show oO

R8 already said it, and everyone else is implying it: This season sucks. No crew is as half as good as the previous ones, even though it's too early to call.

Anyone youtube the Jabbawockeez lately? Here's a few just to put into perspective the quality of dancing & entertainment the current ABDC crews provides.

It's pretty disappointing the direction competitions, crews, and dance in general is heading to. Everyone is pushing to coolest, best, most tricked out that everyone is forgetting about dancing. It's exactly what killed the breakdancing phenomenon.

Has everyone quit watching? There have been some pretty good performances this season, with this week's episode being tops. I thought Rythym City had one of the best performances of this season. Their tight choreography reminded me of Kaba Modern and Fanny Pak. Was quite sad to see two really good crews in the bottom.

Thats probably one of the reasons I've stopped watching too. There aren't many great crews with tight chroreo. seems like everyone just has a gimmick.

I still watch knowing that each upcoming episode of this season will continue to disappoint me. It will probably be Massive Monkees and Afroborike in the finals, and judging from history, Massive Monkees will win.

I don't understand how you can call both of these bullshit gimmick crews. Afroborike is genuinely talented at salsa and lifts, they just don't have any hip hop in them. We Are Heroes are the craziest female pop lockers I have ever seen. Going from last night's performances, Massive Monkeys didn't deserve to win. Their challenge performance was absolutely horrible in comparison to We Are Heroes. I bet they thought that the voting would save them so the challenge performance wouldn't matter, and just focused on their "last chance" performance which they never got to perform.

I am a little disappointed as I think by adding up all the performances season long, Massive Monkeys and Rhythm City should be the final two. While I did enjoy this season I have a gut feeling MTV may cancel the show. They already moved it to the TV graveyard Sunday night time slot, and this season has been less spectacular than previous ones (though still entertaining).

It would be a shame if they canceled it. I was hoping for more seasons so that they can bring all the previous season winners for an ultimate showdown.

well hopefully afroborike wins. heroes just makes me disgusted everytime they draw reference to beat freaks. they are no where near as talented.

the last performance from both teams were quite weak also.

Ronin

I didn't watch anything since the first episode since I thought the talent was weak this year but I got bored and thought I'd check out the other episodes.

If there was any doubt that this show is totally fixed, this year erased it. There's no way these two crews would be in the finale if it wasn't fixed. It's just like we knew that Kaba Modern + Jabbawockeez were the finalists in season 1 but due to both crews being from the West coast, they had that other shitty crew instead.

This season was just weak. No way these chicks are as good as Beat Freaks.

Trying to make this season "diverse" was just idiotic. Cancel this if it's just gonna be this bullshit next year.

That's the point I tried to get across in my previous post: Bullshit "gimmick" crews. They just wanted a crew that was gonna put a twist on the finals, even if it meant that the show would scream that it was fixes. I'm lucky I skipped the entire season except to watch the routine that had "Girls on the Dance Floor" by Far-East Movement being played. I could smell rigged as soon as Massive Monkeys went down.

Clearly you didn't pay attention. Massive Monkeys is a good crew, but they were kicked off because the judges had to decide between them and We Are Horoes for the Decades of Dance challenge. Anyone who has seen the episode will agree that WAH had a much better routine that episode compared to MM.

Even I'll agree that sounds like a tough call from what I pieced together watching both crews, regardless of how much I missed. If they didn't have the pairings like that, then the entire judging line would have been altered.
