Here's the press release from Fox:

On Wednesdays, FOX teams up this summer with the creators of AMERICAN IDOL and the producers of the "American Music Awards" and "American Bandstand" on SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, the ultimate search for the nation's best dancer. Beginning with the two-hour series premiere on Wednesday, July 20 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), the best undiscovered dancing talent the U.S. has to offer will be pitted against each other in a grueling 12-week competition to become America's No. 1 dancer. If you think the AMERICAN IDOL competition is tough, you haven't seen anything yet! Some contestants will collapse under the pressure, others will reveal their two left feet and one will dance his or her way into America's heart. Sure to spark a dance fever the way AMERICAN IDOL has created a competitive singing phenomenon, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE premieres in its regular time period Wednesday, July 27 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT).]]> Wed, 25 May 2005 17:41:21 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3127282 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3156157 Thu, 24 May 2007 12:10:04 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3156157 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3154905 Cool, collected and condescending.

He's been partnered with fellow Top 20er Anya Garnis for the last 9 years.

I think he presents an interesting figure in that he's the only male in the Top 20 that has extensive partnering skills. Neil might have some, if he was in the right shows on Broadway, but the rest of the guys seem to have minimal, if any, experience in leading a partner.]]> Mon, 11 Jun 2007 17:44:02 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3154991 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3156163
Last year the tour consisted of the Top Ten and then 2 alternates who had been eliminated far earlier -- Jessica and Jaymz.

Although they replaced various dancers in various routines, they were not showcased at all with any of their previous paired dances (much to my dismay).

This time around, rumour has it that there will be 14 dancers going on the tour.

How this will effect the tour (as in which routines will be used) is entirely up for speculation at this point.

And for new viewers this season, in the finale last season the jidges and dancers picked their favourite routines (though I think there was manipulation there too) from the season and one new routine by two non-final fourers was performed and all of those were shown on the tour.

So this season our Top Ten is:

1. Kameron
2. Lacey
3. Sara
4. Sabra
5. Pasha
6. Danny
7. Neil
8. Jaimie
9. Dominic
10. Lauren

Who are the other 2 (or 4) people you want to see on the tour?

Right now, I want:

Jesus
Anya
Shauna
and Hok or Ricky]]> Fri, 20 Jul 2007 08:46:12 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3156163 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3154890
How about you?]]> Fri, 08 Jun 2007 09:46:26 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3154890 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3154433 Rules
Every entry starts off with 15 points in the game. TWoPpers can then cast either a (++) vote to give an entry 2 points, or a (--) to take away 2 votes. Each TWoPper can only cast their votes once a day. That's a calendar day, not 24 hours between votes. You can vote at 11:59pm, and again 2 minutes later at 12:01am. You can vote for 3 nominees at a time. When the entrant's vote total reaches 0, they've been eliminated. When half of the field is gone, then we will only be allowed to cast 1(+) vote, while still potentially casting 2 negative votes. This is to help make sure the game doesn't last forever. Also, you can't vote for one entry multiple times in a day (i.e. you can't slap a single person/dance/whatever with 6- in a day!)... it has to be 3 different entries. Post the standings with your vote. It makes it easier to do the math and prevents an overkill/waste of vote.

These are always fun (I'm personally obsessed with them) so I thought I'd bring it over to our shiny new forum!

Maybe we could start off with favourite dancers from Season 1 and then move onto Season 2. From there we could have a showdown of the Top 5 of each group maybe?
