...but I have to admit...at 32, I fell in LOVE with the Jabbawockeez. Randy Jackson owes the success of this show to them.

We're all just waiting for them to pop back up at some point this season.

Intro'd as 'America's undisputed heavyweight dance crew', they should battle for their title. They shall remain, forever more...the WORLD's best dance crew.
