SYTYCD IS RENEWED FOR SEASON 12

FOX has renewed the Emmy Award-winning So You Think You Can Dance for a 12th season. From 19 Entertainment, a division of CORE Media Group, and dick clark productions, So You Think You Can Dance will return in the summer of 2015 with a dramatic new twist.

  Throughout the auditions, the dancers who advance will be placed into two teams – the STAGE dancers, featuring those trained in styles such as contemporary, ballet, jazz or tap; and the STREET dancers, hopefuls skilled in hip-hop, animation or breaking.  As the auditions continue, the judges, along with each team’s All-Star Mentor, will eliminate dancers until only the Top 20 – 10 Street Dancers and 10 Stage Dancers – remain. When the competition goes “live,” the Top 20 will be challenged weekly to perform a variety of styles, working with world-renowned choreographers. One dancer from each genre will be eliminated each week leading up to the Season Finale. Who will win…a dancer from the stage or the street? Find out when So You Think You Can Dance returns in summer 2015.

  “SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE is a rare jewel.  It combines high art with mass entertainment in a seamless, sophisticated and hugely satisfying way,” said Simon Andreae, Executive Vice President, Alternative Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “It’s produced and consumed with tremendous passion and it’s developed one of the most deservedly loyal followings in all of unscripted television.  We are immensely proud to be returning it to the schedule with a thrilling new twist that will bring it up to date and introduce a whole new set of rooting opportunities.”

  “The competition is going to be much more exciting for viewers and even more demanding for the dancers,” said co-creator and executive producer Nigel Lythgoe. “Dancers from different genres have always been competitive with each other and we’ve found a great way to harness that to bring out the absolute best performances in the best dancers across the country.”

  Audition cities and dates to be announced soon.

gotta update that winners gif!

lol last time i didnt update it until s11 starts. i will get around to that one day. the gif is getting so big file wise its hard to upload it places.

Why didn't you post the last episode of the season?

i was busy watching it and then completely forgot about posing it. it was basically repeat dances anyway. i might get around to posting the group routines.

[sytycd11]

Why do you think Lauren Froderman was an underdog in her season? I love her but i don't consider her an underdog because her audition was shown and she did have a fanbase but maybe some people say she was an underdog because it seemed like a lot of people were expecting Alex or Kent to win.

most people thought kent would win. she was the only girl for a while- since the first 3 to leave were girls and then ashley withdrew because of an injury. and she really wasn't getting good reviews from the judges in the beginning. i remember her dance with ade on the couch didnt go over well with the judges (or maybe just nigel). but being the last girl standing, definitely an underdog moment.

[sytycd11]

Honestly I'm not convinced that Ricky had the best technique this season. He does this weird sickling thing with his feet sometimes that really bothers me. Flexibility doesn't make you technical. Not saying he didn't deserve the title though. He did really embody the style/feel of each genre.

i think he was the most technical of the top. he had a great foundation. i don't think i ever noticed the feet thing. i did however get bothered when they made him do an extension in basically every single dance. i wish a choreographer would have been like, okay everyone knows you are flexible lets show them more!

[sytycd11]

Honestly, I'm very upset that Ricky won. He is so typical; people like him win almost every year. It gets old after a while. I just wish that someone who is such an underdog (like Zack) or someone with an amazing personality (like Rudy) or someone who had amazing eyebrows (like Teddy) would win.

i think he deserved the title because he was the best technically and never had a bad routine. i just wish they made him work for it bad, they kind of just handed it to him the first week.

i thought zack would at least make top 2….

and lauren froderman and jeanine mason were two people who won as underdogs that i can think of off the top of my head. also jakob karr is comparable to ricky and his season he came in second and russell won. and billy bell, who also has legs for days, didn’t make it all that far into his season. so it doesn’t always pan out for those stand out people win.

Is there gonna be a season 12???

i know it was posted somewhere on here that it was coming back next summer confirmed on the sytycd facebook. but i don't see that anywhere on the facebook's timeline, and until its said by the network or nigel i wouldn't believe anything i hear otherwise.

it's all in fox's hands to bring it back or not. it's a costly show for them that doesn't bring them in too much money. if they keep it, its because of the fan base and there isn't really another dance show competing against it. if they cancel it, it was solely a business decision. 

[sytycd11]

What are your thoughts on Valerie being second place?? Like, I love her and everything she's actually one of my favorites but I honestly did not expect her to make it that far....

i think this was the strongest top 20 in MANY seasons. there wasn't one person i thought didnt deserve their spot. that being said, the order in which contestants left was allllll kinds of crazy this season. there was many contestants i thought deserved to stay longer over people who were not even in the bottom that week. 

to be honest, i'm not sure how valerie never ended up in the bottom when she had some weaker numbers compared to other contestants dances. and judging by twitters reaction when she made top 2, i'm not sure where all her votes were coming from?

[sytycd11]

Have you been to the tour before? Can you meet them after?

yes you can meet them after. find a person who works at the venue before or after the show and ask where the public meet & greet is. sometimes they don't know but if you keep asking around you will eventually find someone with an answer. 

[sytycd11]

Ricky's the new Travis Wall, and that's saying something because I never make that comparison and Ricky is just that good, and i'm so happy he won! He deserved it!! :)

just curious, how do you think he is similar to travis wall? hahha i don't see any correlation between the two, besides moving people with their work.

What routines would you like to see in the finale? I really want to see Jessica and Casey's contemporary, Bridget and Emilio's contemporary, Carly and Serge's hip hop, Ricky and Anya's cha cha, Jacque and Will's contemporary, etc.

bridget and emilio's contemporary, emilio and comfort's hip hop, ricky and zack's hip hop, the chess hip hop group piece- but thats not likely, the wave top 7 guys group dance, zack and aaron's tap, casey and jessica's contemporary, jacque and will's contemporary 

those are the ones that come to mind first.  theres a lot of group routines i want to see.

[sytycd11]

I'm not a fan of Casey but he definitely had better chemistry with Jessica than Brooklyn. Mainly because I'm obsessed with Casey & Jessica's contemporary and anyone looks good dancing with her(:

yeah i think their chemistry was better too

[sytycd11]

Which contestant who has not come back as an all star would you like to see as an all star in the future? I would love to see Jeanine, Kayla, Billy, and Paul come back as all stars!

JEANINE. 

also mollee gray has grown a whole lot since her time on the show so it would be cool to see her back.

Can you identify the dancers and from which episodes for the various scenes in the opening credits of the current season? (2014, seaon 11)

Being that most of the clips are from the last few seasons- and the last few seasons are one big blur to me. i'll just tell you what i remember (my memory goes after s7/8 so apologizes.)

the sand dance (season 8, 9 or 10?... see no memory)

alice in wonderland dance (by mia s7)

cyrus & twitch s9

jenna and mark s10 jazz

shoeless joe from hannabal mo- kent & neil (tyce s7)

eliana solo

jose & dominic s7

total eclipse melanie & neil s8

bang bang- eliana & alex s9

no idea what dances until amy & travis wicked games

more confusion until turn to stone- melanie and marko s8

[sytycd11]

After Emilio left they started putting out choreographers like Phillip Chbeeb and Wildabeast and we all know Emilio would have killed both dances. I felt it was hardly fair as other dancers were trained in contemp and they kept using contemp at first

this season was a little weird in my opinion but i was hoping once they had emilio they would consider using phillip. it might have been a scheduling conflict that phillip couldnt make it to choroegraph until a specific episode or was scheduled to just do that one episode early on. i don't think they were waiting for emilio to leave or anything. his last hip hop piece was one of the best of the show.
