I love So You Think You Can Dance!!

[floyd-amanpour]

 FremantleMedia North America announced on Monday that a new executive producer has been named to oversee the production and implement changes on American Idol. The announcement was made after confirmation that the show’s top honchos had already been sacked, following their failure to pump up the show’s ratings in the last few years.

Hopes are kept high for America’s most popular and highly endeared reality singing contest on television under its new leadership, with Swedish new Idol producer Per Blankens at the helm. But what do we know about Blankens? How can he turn around the show that has been suffering from low ratings in the last few years.

Watching SYTYCD!!

For the past two weeks I have been watching ALL OF THE SPORTS on the Olympics and crying so many tears at every human interest piece and subsequent gold medal win. It's been the best. But, due to all the Olympic hullaballoo, my favorite summer TV show has been on hiatus.

So You Think You Can Dance went on a, very wise, two week break so they didn't have to worry about competing with the games. But I miss it! I miss it so much! Which is why when I saw this video yesterday I was filled with awe and wonder and joy. It contains enough artistry and incredible technique to tide me over until the show returns next Wednesday.

So please enjoy as much as I did, also, as much as Yo-Yo Ma clearly did. I think it's so amazing how much these two are collaborating and inspiring each other. 

And just in case it's not enough, click through here to watch one of my favorite feel-good routines from the show that I don't think got enough credit.

Come back to me soon, Cat Deeley!
