^ He got cut from the Vegas rounds.
DO you know who's a brilliant comedian? Michael Mcintyre!
The audition and Vegas rounds episodes will air in September and early October. The performance episodes don't start until October 27 due to pre-emptions.Quote:

I think it's too weird for them to have a dancer that raps or recites poetry while dancing. They're into choreography and technical dancing. That's an act for America's Got Talent. Do you watch it? It's like a variety show, a few good acts but a lot of it is tortuous to watch
^ I watched AGT last season, and I was rooting for Nuttin' But Stringz, but they didn't win. I caught a few minutes of this season's AGT, and I was not impressed.
I think that they cut Ryan because he is too old (by their standards). Last season, they went on and on about Melissa being 29 (I thought that she looked older than 29, but whatever).
I just watched the Top 20 performance episode of SYTYCD:CA, and there were no couples who stood out as amazing. The two couples that performed hip hop will probably fall to the bottom 3 tomorrow because judging from last season, Canadian voters do not like hip hop.
Is it starting over there now? you're right, they don't have much respect for hip hop despite they rave about the hip hop choreos. I think to them hip hop dancers are more limited and nichy, but when you watch them do other dances, they're just as good
^ Every couple that danced hip hop fell to the bottom 3 last season, with the exception of one or two. I think that the Canadian judges respect hip hop more, because many hip hop dancers/breakers/poppers were sent straight through to Toronto week (Vegas week in the US version) without having to do choreography. In the American version, every person who does hip hop in their audition has to do choreography. It's the Canadian voters that don't seem to like hip hop.
^ interesting observation. The judges here are the ones not going for hip hop, I think.
^ Yeah, the judges always say to the hip hop dancers, "We want to see if you can do other styles." It's as if they believe that only contemporary dancers can do other styles. But many of the contemporary dancers that they had on the show can't do anything outside their wheelhouse. For example, S5 Caitlin's hip hop was awful, and S5 Melissa's cha cha was dreadful.
Finally the Canadian TV audience appreciates hip hop. I was happy that both couples that danced hip hop escaped the bottom 3. The judges, however, are a different story. Why keep the contemporary dancer who was bad in the samba over the hip hop dancer who was passable in the capoeira?
good, that levels the playing field. May the best win :)
Cat Deeley needs to replace the host of SYTYCD:CA. Leah Miller, the current host, is awful. She messed up her lines at least three times.
Haunted, on September 2, there will be a special episode of SYTYCD that features the Top 15 routines of the past five seasons. Which routines were your favourite? I'll be shocked if "Sweet Dreams" and/or "Knock on Wood" do not make the list.
