especially DANCE reality shows. There’s no end to them: So you think you can dance, Step it up and dance, etc. They aren’t filmed right and they mix too many different types of dancers together. Can a hip-hop dancer really compete with a formally trained ballet dancer? doubt it.
But there is one ray of hope. America’s Best Dance Crew was a hit with its first season. It’s filmed so that you can really see the talent of the dancers, and the crews are truly artists.
The second season has started up, and there are some really interesting groups. I have to admit I am a little biased because I have a friend on one of the crews, but even if I didn’t I would still love this show. Check it out Thursdays at 10 pm.
Here’s a clip of my friends crew, Fanny Pak:
