Harmony: My memory bank spits out Idol for that.... Gah!!!! I need to have my head examined.....

Wishful thinking for audition rounds:

We see the auditions of everyone who makes the show. That should take up some portion of the time alloted. Say, 60% of the time. Allow for commercials and time with Cat, and we're up to 75%. During 12% of the remaining time, would it hurt to show us really awesome moves from contestants who didn't have the stuff otherwise to make the show? Then the remaining 12 percent of the time should be really bad auditions. Not stupid bad, Really Bad.

Well, that's never gonna happen. We will get 68% bad auditions. 12% good auditions from some small percentage of the people that make the show. 10% repeats during recaps and montages of the same small percentage of people that make the show. And twenty percent of commercials, Cat, intros and outros.

Still my favorite show. But that would make it Legen-waitforit-dary!

Countdown: 3 days!!!

Waiting to go home from work so doing a little research on the 'net. You were right, the panther guy was on AI and AKA eccentric. I hope he doesn't show up on SYTYCD...ack.

From an article online at one of the Entertainment gossip sites...

Quote:

Is "Sexy" back?
MM: We have not seen him, and we're not going to New York City. He does have quite the little following, you know. I've heard that on the Internet he's got his own little fan club. We are not going to be in New York, but we are going to be in Washington, DC, so I'll be very curious to see if he made that train ride down there to be in front of us once again.

AND

Quote:

Which choreographers are returning?
MM: Well, as far as I know, we're going to be seeing Mia Michaels, Wade Robson. Of course, Shane [Sparks] is on another dance show right now (MTV's (America's Best Dance Crew), so I'm not sure we're going to see him because of exclusive rights or whatever.

My excitement just went up another notch! Wade just might be back as a guest choreographer after all. One can only hope.

Sex is the William Hung of SYTYCD.

Does anyone know if this is going to be available online this year? I seem to recall that Fox doesn't put their shows up online like alphabet networks do. I'm going to miss it on thursday and of course it is also Grey's season finale and can't tape both.

Thinking I'll tape this and catch the other online.

So looking forward to tonight

I'm counting down the hours.....

Harmony2000 · 05-22-2008, 09:59 AM

Me too! After how AWESOME AI was last night I'm actually getting my reality show mojo back and looking forward to what will hopefully turn out to be another amazing season.

Paraphrased since it is from an interview with Cat Deeley conducted at another site:

Deeley says that the show is the same but bigger and better because the contestants are more savvy and now understand that its not always about the best technical dancer. Also they feel that if its not broken then why fix it. That the bar has been raised so the contestants have to be bigger and better in order to impress.

This means that people spinning on their heads is so been there done that, that now they want people doing triple back somersaults and running up the walls.

She also said that Mia Michaels has a chill inspiring routine and that Wade (YES!) has something special planned because they are both interested in repeating their prior Outstanding Choreography Emmy Awards.

maybe I'm missing something, but it seems that if there is one thing that the past seasons have demonstrated, its that technique rules. Dancers with little training fall behind. fast.

When does the actual season start? I can't stand the audition shows.

Very sad to hear that Wade Robson isn't going to be around (I don't know where this was confirmed, but I'll take everyone's word for it). His routines by far are the most enjoyable part of the show. Not that the other choreographers are not good, but his stuff is just so unique.

Loved Robert Muraine on the premiere. I hope he's not a one-trick pony.
