I admit, reality shows suck me in at times. While I shy away from Big Brother, Survivor, Apprentice and all the major time wasters sometimes they are just too mind numbing not to watch. I think I have figured it out though, it’s entertaining because there’s always people you will love and people you will hate and watching them battle one another is just too much fun to watch. Nowadays they feel so scripted it feels like a waste of time but then there’s times they truly are chaotic enough they can’t be faked. Either way, everywhere you turn expect to see some slimy skank trying to get in Bret Michaels pants or some dumbass impaling himself on a branch in Survivor. Over the course of the next week I’ll be profiling a few reality shows and telling you why they might just be worth watching or even entering yourself.

The first reality show I’ll be profiling is Randy Jackson’s Americas Best Dance Crew. An American Idol style show for dance crews, it tries to cash in on the ghetto appeal of breakdance battles by pitting each crew against one another week to week. But why this one works is the talent is actually there. After a few weeks and the poseurs and girls were all eliminated we were left with a few top level crews left. All had elements of b-boy styles and what surprised most is 2 of the final three crews were all asian. That’s right, you slanty eyes can throw down with the right amount of practice!! So with the Jabbawockeez, Kaba Modern and Status Quo battling it out the level of competition easily outweighed the lame judges and Mario Lopez being present. After the jump check out the sickest set of the competition so far and some more performances from the eventual winners. As well, check out some other videos from the Red Bull B-Boy Championships where Lilou, France’s top breaker take on Hong 10 in the 2005 Finals. Prepare for some serious breakin’ envy.
