"Mobbed" on Fox March 31, 2011
While most people have seen a flash mob on television or perhaps in the movies, I wonder how many of you have at least seen one in person. They serve to brighten people’s spirits, to make them smile, to make them sing, and to make them dance.
As a member of the OFFICIALFOXVIP program, I receive many privileges, one being previews of new shows on Fox. On Thursday, March 31, after the American Idol’s results show, a new show called “Mobbed” comes to your TV screen. Without spoiling the story, this one centers on Justin and Nikki. Hosted by Howie Mandel, they pull off an elaborate flash mob for this couple who want to share their news/event in a BIG way. Napoleon and Tabitha, two well-known award-winning choreographers, most recently on Fox’s “So You Think You Can Dance” are in charge of getting over 1000 people dancing in unison in very little time.
The only criticism I have is they felt they needed to create some drama, and this drama made someone cry, which I felt was not necessary. They could have still pulled this off with the dramatic flair they did without anyone becoming suspicious.
We need some “feel good” television shows on the air, and this show will raise your spirits and make you want to get up out of your seat and dance.
To my readers out there, have you ever actually performed in a flash mob (singing, dancing or a combination) and if so, what did you think about it? How many of you think you will tune in to see what this “Mobbed” is all about?

I may be a little confused, but you said, “The only criticism I have is they felt they needed to create some drama, and this drama made someone cry, which I felt was not necessary. They could have still pulled this off with the dramatic flair they did without anyone becoming suspicious.” This pilot entails a proposal. The proposee is supposed to cry! How more feel-good does it need to be?

It is the prank the “men” thought was necessary but Tabitha did not think it was a good idea either. I agree with Tabitha. It made the young lady suspicious and feel like crap. It was not necessary.
