At times
NBC certainly earns its reputation for not having much originality, whether it be developing copy cat reality shows like
Fashion Star emulating
Project Runway and
Ready for Love channeling
The Bachelor, to dramas like
Allegiance borrowing concepts from
The Americans, or digging into its TV and film vaults to reboot, reimagine, or remake familiar franchises.
Following the success of their Fall hit, the past-and-present drama
This Is Us, you'd think they'd continue to try to deliver more original concepts and programming.
This summer it's time for them to take a leaf out of
Fox's So You Think You Can Dance, now in its fourteenth season, with their new reality competition
World of Dance.
Hosted and mentored by
Step Up dance movie star
Jenna Dewan Tatum (where she met her husband
Channing Tatum), the series also sports a celebrity panel comprised of superstar diva
Jennifer Lopez,
Dancing with the Stars Derek Hough and singer
Ne-Yo.
The competition will feature dancers from all around the globe, of all ages and all dance styles, with a chance to win $1 million grand prize.
These series launch billboards were photographed on giant ad sites along
West Hollywood's busy
Sunset Strip and the landscape versions spotted along
Bundy Drive and
Fountain Avenue from April 20 to April 29, 2017.
Let's face it,
NBC isn't the only culprit to steal shows and ideas from competitor networks and cable channels, just look at what happened recently when
ABC snapped up the rights to revive
American Idol after it was cancelled by
Fox after fifteen seasons.
"You want fame? Well, fame costs. And right here is where you start paying... in sweat".
Let the dance-off begin.
