Our
Start to a 6th Season (or "How Did We Change Our
Batteries?")
September 9
In about 60 minutes, you're about to see the world
premiere of "Glee." That is something to grab the nachos
& pizza to snack on. Right now though it's the sixth
season of the most famous six words in all of
television. You guessed it right, "So You Think You Can
Dance" heads into our fall season.
With the
temperatures soon to be dropping, we're heating up with
more moves than ever before, but if you wanna get there,
you got to audition for your city. With that said, let's
travel to our first one of the season.
LOS ANGELES
Day 1
Normally, every season starts out in New York, but this
season, we took it to the west coast. Joining the
unforgettable and undeniable tag team of Nigel Lythgoe &
Mary Murphy is Adam Shankman. Our first hopeful for this
season is Cole. He prides himself as....distinctive &
unique. But for his dancing....idiotic & stupid. That
won't take him to Vegas. Maybe Mollee from Utah will go.
Her mom worked 3 jobs to support her and her dancing
lessons. That may be hard, but she made it look easy
with a contemporary number. The dancers stood up for her
and the judges send her straight through to Vegas.
With David, Amanda & Brandon going straight through,
Ryan & Bianca come back after getting ousted from the
top 20. Ryan's brother Evan went to the top 20 last
season, but ended up in 3rd place. This year, Ryan will
repeat the same feat his brother gave. He gives a tap
routine, and he goes to Vegas without warning. Now it's
Bianca's turn. She's in the same department Ryan
has....and.....she goes to Vegas!
To end our first day in LA, here's Christopher, who
wants to one day do a film called "Drum Song," but in
the auditions, he shoots a manic one to "All That Jazz."
The judges razz him on that, and he ends up on the
cutting room floor, straight to the video stores, in
fact. 9 more dancers don't. They go to Vegas.
LOS ANGELES
Day 2
With Day 1 a wrap, we get to the next day where
Christina brings Pepe to do a salsa. Hey, that sounds
like some energy in the ballroom. WIth a hip-hop twist,
Xtina brings it straight to Vegas, no doubt. Next is
Phillip. After a montage of bad auditions before him, we
see another tapper with a roommate of Ryan who we saw
earlier. They send him to Vegas with precision. Round 2
came and 10 more go through to Vegas.
Well, I hope you enjoyed the first night here on our
show. Please stay tuned for "Glee," because it's one to
watch. So for everyone here, goodnight.
