It was definitely in my top 5 this year.  I love a good programmatic show though. I know it's a different direction for Madison but I think it works well for them.

Curious, why hasn't anyone listed Frameworks or Machine among their favorite Cavaliers shows? Seems odd, as these were both champion shows.

Cool visually, musically lacking. Just in my opinion. I enjoyed shows like Immortal and Secret Society more than a lot of the Cavies championship shows.

The OP requested shows from 2007-2016 but the thread was started preseason so I guess 2007-present are game.  My lists would certainly be different if it were say top 5 all time for each corps.  Maybe a good idea for a thread topic?

 

I still stand by Mad world as my favorite Cavaliers show...it had a lot of visual design aspects of their 00s shows but with a much more interesting program and it was great from a musical perspective too.
