Superstars of Dance - Finale - Finally

Unfortunately Nigel's So You Think You Can Dance offspring didn't work. At all.

In the solo competition, Russia won with their absuslutely STUNNING ballerina, the only winner of the night I agreed with:



Up next the duet category:



The Groovaloos took 1st place in the group competition that should have gone to Australia (or even China) in my humble opinion. Now, maybe if it had been Quest Krew...



I did enjoy seeing the different cultural dances, but Nigel, THIS was not the best dance the world has to offer...not by a long shot.

Superstars of Dance - The Groovaloos!

I have a feeling this show will have a HUGE dropoff this week, but here is TEAM USA - The Groovaloos:



Is it a coincidence that they closed the show again? I don't think so. This was the first half of the semi-finals and if the Groovaloos aren't performing next week will anyone watch? Not sure.

Superstars of Dance - The Groovaloos - Team USA

The Groovaloos launched Team USA into 2nd place overall (behind Ireland) in part deux of the competition. The camera work and lighting on this show are HORRIBLE. Below is a video of their performance. It's not a bad video, this is how it looked on television....check it out:

Will you be watching?

I have to at least give it a look see given that it is the brainchild of Nigel Lithgoe. As goofy as he is he did bring us So You Think You Can Dance!

"Dancing With the Stars, that's a bunch of celebrities who would like to dance. My own show, So You Think You Can Dance, is a bunch of kids who would like to be dancers," Lythgoe says. "And this is professionals that have been doing it, have made their living through it. A lot of them are world champions in their specific genre, and it's a lot of different cultures coming together. And I think that's what's the most exciting part of it for me."

The show will look something like an Olympic competition for dance. Each of the eight nations -- the United States, Argentina, Ireland, Russia, South Africa, India, China and Australia -- will have solo, duet and group competitors who will face off against one another while also earning points for their country. Judges from each country will determine who moves forward in each round.

If it's any good I might have some videos in the AM.

Stay tuned...
