So You Think You Can Dance

So You Think You can Dance is a dance reality competition from the creators of American Idol. It follows a similar format to American Idol with the only difference being that the people do not have a complete say of is eliminated, at least not until the top ten dancer. Till the top ten is announced each of the participant compete votes as a couple. After the top ten stage is reached then they compete for viewer votes as an individual.


What makes this show fun and great is that each week you get see couple perform different styles that are performed at times beautifully, sensuously, and at s downright weird. What's awesome is the fact that the dance form that the couple performs may not be what they are trained in and these couples need to master them within a couple of days and have to perform in front of an audience and the judges. Bottom three couples perform solos for the judges who decide which gal and guy should be sent home.


I have been following this show for a season and a half and I can say I have absolutely fallen in love with this show. Though the telecast started from Season 2, currently season 3 is being telecasts here. Season 2 I absolutely loved Benji and Donyelle performing. Whether it was was the Cha-Cha, Viennese Waltz (or as Donyelle would say the Vietnamese Waltz), but most of all I love their Broadway performance to You Can't Stop the Beat. But the performance that will be forever in my head would be the contemporary routine by Allison and Ivan to Annie Lennox's Why, which was absolutely beautiful. I would say Allison was best female and Benji was the best male dancer (he actually won it). One thing that the season lacked was sex appeal. Yes they did have Dimitry and Natalie and Musa, but still it lacked in sex appeal. This is something that season 3 doesn't lack. There are soo many hot couple to choose from. There is Lacey (Benji's sister) and Kameroon, Jessie and Pasha, Aanya and Danny, Sabra and Domnic. I can truly that the performance are also heating up too. Danny and Lacey 's Samba (choreographed by Dimitry) to Domnic and Sabra's Rhumba to Lacey and Kameroon's Broadway routine. Though Sabra and Domnic's Contemporary routine to the Pretender's I'll Stand by You was abolutely beautifully choreographed and performed, Danny and Annya's performance of the Viennese Waltz to You and Me by Lifehouse was just heavenly.


And then you have the judges. The resident judge and Executive Producer Nigel Lythgow and the scream queen and in her own words the hot Tomholie, Mary Murphy, giving a great shout out to the performers. The third judge is a guest judge who actually are quite fun. Loved having Adama Shankman, Debbie Allen, Mia Michaels. Last but not the least you have the beautiful Host Cat Deeley.


Can't wait to see what the current season has in store for us and can't wait for the future seasons to be aired.
