So You Think You Can Dance 2008: Top 6 RESULTS SHOW Recap

By AnaDVR on August 1, 2008

The show begins with a performance by the top six contestants to Bette Midler’s The Rose. It was a beautiful dance choreographed by Mandy Moore (the dancer, not the singer/actress). The judges are reintroduced, Adam Shankman, Mary Murphy, and Nigel Lythgoe. Shankman also has great news. He has added to the $250,000 winner’s purse a featured role in a new movie he is producing.

So You Think You Can Dance 2008: Top 8 RESULTS SHOW Recap

By AnaDVR on July 25, 2008

I’m sorry America, I missed the first five minutes of the show and didn’t get the explanation as to why Cat was dressed for a Halloween party at a frat. Perhaps someone can explain it to me. I was able to catch Nigel’s lecture on voting. America needs to get educated on the issues and vote! Anyway, let’s get to the fun part of the show! Continue →

So You Think You Can Dance 2008: Top 10 RESULTS SHOW Recap

By AnaDVR on July 18, 2008

Last night’s episode had a lot of filler including not one, not two, but three performances by our wonderful dancers. The opening number was a Bollywood routine set to JBJ from the Jhoom Barabar Jhoom Soundtrack. It was a great routine with lots of energy and everyone looked fantastic. Continue →

So You Think You Can Dance 2008: Top 10 PERFORMANCE SHOW Recap

By AnaDVR on July 17, 2008

From here on out the contest is going to be a tad different. Each contestant will have two choreographed dances with a partner along with a solo. At the end of the show, the television audience votes and the guy and girl with the lowest numbers gets the boot. The judges no longer have a say as to who is America’s Favorite Dancer. It’s up to us, America! Continue →

So You Think You Can Dance 2008 recap: The Top 16 results

By Nicky on June 27, 2008

Was anyone surprised by last night’s results show? Not me. I really feel that the right people were sent home so I don’t have many complaints. I do have an issue with host Cat Deeley though. This may all stem from my alter ego as a fashion blogger so just indulge me. Someone fire her stylist ASAP! Continue →

So You Think You Can Dance 2008 recap: The Top 16

By Nicky on June 26, 2008

Week 3 of the competition and I already have my favorite couples picked, do you? Although as a bedazzled- glamour-shots Mary Murphy commented, this season does seem a bit more equal on the playing field than last season. Most dancers are performing very well and giving a high level of effort each week but that doesn’t mean a few of them haven’t grabbed a seat on my own personal “hot tamale train” already. Continue →

Results time people, are you ready? I was keeping my fingers crossed this whole time for you-know-who to get cut and I was not disappointed by any means but more on that later. Continue →

Shane Sparks!! Where have you been? Oh, how I miss him and his assured smile. They didn’t even flash to him in the audience, which makes me think he must be really busy with MTV’s Dance Crew and we won’t be seeing much of him this season. Continue →

Well dear SYTYCD watchers, we’ve arrived at week two of competition! For me, it’s making the long hot summer much more enjoyable and taking some of the bore out of my pregnancy bed rest. If only I could get off the couch and try to copy some of the dance moves like I usually do. I bet you’d all pay to see that, huh?! Anyway, let’s recap the couples from last night’s performances.

"So You Think You Can Dance" 2008 recap: The Top 20 Results

By Nicky on June 13, 2008

Let’s start with some housekeeping before we get to the actual results of which guy and girl left the show. First of all, the opening dance was crazy cool. Wade Robson never has disappointed me as a choreographer. Although, I was a little bummed he did not do his normal new age peace bow when they flashed the camera on him. Darn! But it was fun to see all the contestants together and of course Nigel being kidnapped by them. Continue →
