Season chronology

The fifth season of America's Best Dance Crew premiered on January 28, 2010. Similar to the live casting specials featured in the first two seasons, the first three episodes consisted of separate regional auditions before proceeding to the official national-level competition. Judges Lil Mama and JC Chasez, host Mario Lopez, and backstage correspondent Layla Kayleigh all returned; Shane Sparks did not return as a judge this season, due to his arrest, and was replaced by Omarion as a judge. In the live finale, which aired on April 8, 2010, Poreotix was declared the winner.
