For the first time in ABDC history, the final four crews are comprised of two male and two female teams, which naturally lends episode 6 the perfect opportunity to feature another ABDC first: a boys versus girls theme. Was it an accident that Rihanna and Chris Brown ended up in this mix? It’s one thing to have all your ugly business splashed all over tabloids and the blogosphere, but it sure is peculiar, to say the least, for it to be insinuated at in a national dance contest. Of course, you can call it a coincidence, but the scandal is still coal-iron-hot in the media, and you’d think featuring both singers, especially in a battle of the sexes context, is rather poor in taste. Oh well, it is what it is. Anyhow, I hope this tides you over until the episode airs, which—in light of a train of mediocre episodes—is definitely something to look forward to!
