I'm on vacation, but SYTYCD is never too far from my thoughts (well, it was pretty far from them this morning while I was lying on the beach, but...). As we wind down one of the weirdest - and most injurious - seasons to-date, let's reflect a little: What was your favorite moment of the season? Your personal favorite dancer? Choreographer? Routine?
In reverse order, I think...I think I have too many favorite routines to pick just one; at a minimum, I'm going to reserve the right to see some of them danced again in the final show recap before making up my mind. Choreographer? Travis Wall, with Stacey Tookey running a very close second. Personal favorite dancer? Hm. I've got a soft spot for Billy Bell, but there's just something about Kent that I think is just irresistible. I just wanna tweak his cheeks like a visiting aunt, y'know? And favorite moment? Many as there are to choose from, this one is a vivid standout: when Cat called the judges out for their hypocrisy in criticizing Adechike's Bollywood number after giving Jose's equally poor (and considerably less physically challenging) performance a smiling pass. I was so proud of her for speakin' up! 'Cause let's face it, the rest of us were thinkin' the same thing.
How about you?
This is a fan blog for Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance," focusing on how the untrained audience judges the dancers and their performances.
Not that the world needed yet another fan blog about a TV show, but after a very interesting Season 7, I felt more convinced than ever that this show would benefit from having a judge on its panel each week who is merely a fan - not a choreographer, producer, or Hollywood bigwig. The Judges (capital "J" when referring to The Main Trio) might find themselves a bit more in tune with the audience if they actually ever bothered to ask why the audience votes the way it does. So, to be purely self-serving and egomaniacal, I have appointed myself "the SYTYCD Fan Judge" (until such time as the show appoints one), and with that, here is yet another fan blog about a TV show...
