Makes me want to cry, but in a good way.

Posted on July 30, 2008

Watching “So you think you can dance” tonight made me want to cry.  Not in a sad, feeling sorry for myself kind of way.  But, in the appreciative, that “FUCKING GAVE ME CHILLS!” kind of way.  The dancers this season have ramped up the level of difficulty so HIGH, its like watching a professional dance performance.  There are only six left, but they are all so good, it makes it really hard to vote.  I love Twitch, for his comedic stylings, but Chelsie rocks EVERY SINGLE DANCE!  Katee was the girl that they weren’t sure they wanted on the show, and then decided against better judgment to add her, and she is AMAZING!  Joshua is the hip hop guy with absolutely NO classical training who is doing passe double’s and waltz’s as if they were easy.  Mark has this bizarre, Danny Elfman quality to his dancing, which intrigues me.  Courtney is a short (which in this industry tends to be rare) but strong dancer.

To any of you out there who aren’t watching the show, you don’t know what you are missing.  Even if you don’t enjoy dance, this has got to be one of the BEST reality shows on.  I think it’s better than American Idol, and that’s saying a lot.  This show is all about skill, versatility, and entertainment.  And it fails to disappoint.

PS.  I swear, nobody is paying me for this review.  However, if you want to, I could use the money.  I am going Italy, after all.  That shit ain’t cheap!
