The New Dance Show was a television show in Detroit which ran in the late-1980s to mid-1990s on WGPR-TV 62 (now a CBS affiliate known as WWJ-TV). Hosted by R.J. Watkins, The New Dance Show was a low-budget local version of Soul Train and featured regular dancers including a man who dressed like a vampire and wore a cape and a woman who dressed as a boxer. The show was the successor to The Scene which aired during the late-1970s and early-1980s on the same station.[1] The Mayer Hawthorne "Long Time" music video is presented as if it were an excerpt from The New Dance Show.[2]
