i'm watching street dance of china for the first time (randomly chose s3 to watch). actually being able to watch them dance should be given but having seen only swf/smf for my judgment of dance shows, i need mnet to fire their editors..... smf is so hard to watch with how many random cuts they throw in of audience reactions and camera angles.....

oh sdc will SPOIL you for watching dance shows. they film and edit the dancing so well, it makes mnet's editors look like toddlers hitting a keyboard. s3 is definitely the best place to start bc that's when they upped the production and brought in big name idols to be captains, so even though it's not the first season, it is kind of the starting point for what sdc is now. i still periodically go back and watch some of the routines from s3 bc they're so good (the original huang xiao+qiao zhi routine!!! chunlin's tonight!! the water stage!!!) and also the captain combo is so fucking funny; you get incredible dancing and then you also get whatever comes out of jackson 'i dont understand chinese' wang's mouth. also the battles. the battles. there's a fucking insane seven to smoke that happens in one of the later episodes that goes on for over half an hour and it is one of the most intense television viewing experiences i've ever had.

#the battles on sdc are way more fun than they are on swf or smf bc theyre not maliciously competitive #and theyre edited really well with not a lot of reaction cuts so you can actually SEE what's happening #this is my pitch for everyone to watch sdc it's such a good show #jackson actually says 'i dont understand (the hanzi)' but the translation i watched just translated it as 'chinese'#which made me SCREAM with laughter #text #answers #i'm actually not even sure if there are eng subs anywhere of the first two seasons?#there might be now but there were not two years ago when i went looking for them #s4 is also crazy good. there's a ton of returning people and they do a talent show in the middle for some reason. it's cute as hell #OH you should also watch the hotpot episodes!! the captains do like a debrief mini episode over hotpot. i think it's called lets chat?#they basically just goof around and talk about whatever. yixing drinks from a mug the size of his head #theyre fun and they sometimes give you extra insight into the full episodes #i'm not sure if they're all eng subbed though. they might be easier to find for s3 now that its been a while #sdc #sdc3 #now you understand why i complained so much about mnet's editing skldjflsdkjf
