Season 9 & Post-Season Stuff
Hey guys!
Trying to make the blog a little easier to navigate so I’ve
combined all the leftover season 9 posts (not the critiques, those you can find
in the archives) and the Post/Pre-Season Stuff in one large post. I know it’s a
lot to sift through, but I’ve made a table of contents, and you can use the
find feature (Ctrl-F) to jump right to your desired post. Just press and hold
Ctrl & the “F” key at the same time, and type the tag exactly as you see
it, and click enter – it may jump to the tag in the table, hit ‘next’ to go to
the article. Let me know in the comments or via e-mail if something’s amiss or
to give me feedback! This is a LONG post because it’s one post combining a long
list of Season 9 & Post/Pre Season Posts. Use the Tags to skip to what
sounds interesting! J Thanks everyone!

9Remarks – So You Think You Can Dance: Season 9
Closing Remarks
Hello Everyone, I just wanted to post some closing remarks on the season to give everyone some season 9 closure, especially me. As you all know, hopefully, Eliana and Chehon won this season of So You Think You Can Dance, the series' first ever season with two winners - and this was only 1/2 a happy occasion for me. It shouldn't be a shock, but I really wanted Cyrus to win. I was DEVASTATED when he lost - but in my attempt to remain bias, I won't dwell on it.
This season was awesome, and I really want to thank everyone that viewed the page on Finale night. It was certainly recognition that the blog is going well, and over the course of the off-season I'll continue to post. Things about tour, which I'll be attending, where the dancers are headed and things that they're doing - and anything I hear about next season.
I didn't blog the auditions in season 9, but I've been chatting with some of my regular followers, and it sounds like everyone would like some audition blogging, mostly for the songs, and for recollection of the top 20 from the auditions, but would like it none-the-less, so I'll be developing some sort of format for that, as blogging each audition individually could get both long and tedious.
If you're already missing the season, don't worry. As solo mashups, mastermixes, and dance compilations become available on youtube, I'll try to keep them posted here. I'm trying to put together a video right now, of all of Cyrus' solos from the season. They're just so sick and incredible they deserve to be all on one video for easy viewing.
That's all for now. Please don't hesitate to let me know of anything you find, want to know, or want to see - and I'd be happy to do everything in my power to honor those requests.
THANKS FOR AN AWESOME SEASON!
Jazzy

DYK – So You Think You Can Dance: Did You Know
Hello Friends! I hope everyone is having a delightful Wednesday!!
There's so much going on with the dancers from this season and seasons past, and I figured I'd start a "Did You Know" section for the offseason to give to tips and hints about where you can see your favorite dancers! I'll maybe update this section once a week, and older DYK's will be lower on the list - I'll always date them. :)
September 26, 2012 - Ryan Ramirez & Carly Rae Jepsen!
I'm sure you ALL remember our dear friend Ryan Ramirez from Season 8 who danced with Ricky prior to the top 10. You may have peeped her on Season 9's finale show - or perhaps you saw her on Ellen, but she is currently on tour with mega superstar Carly Rae Jepsen!
So if you have a chance to see Carly live or if you catch her performing one of her hits on TV - keep an eye out for our own Ryan! Good Luck Ry! Love to see you doin your thing chicka!! :)
September 28, 2012 - Booth, Bones & Your Favorites - OH MY!
Guess who's just been cast to star in a special dance themed episode of the hit TV show bones?
Give up? Your two favorite dancers America! Chehon and Eliana!! This is something you AREN'T going to want to miss. Even if you're not a Bones fan you gotta check this out! Show our faves some love huh!?
Here are the details - get to settin' those DVR's!! http://tvline.com/2012/09/27/bones-season-8-so-you-think-you-can-dance/ Your faves will be joined by Mary Murphy, Tyce Diorio AND Dmitry Chaplin in the episode (I'd watch it for him alone). The episode is set to air this season, but not until closer to Christmas, so keep your pants on! It's coming though - so just check it out okay! :) I'll try and post an actual date when I have it!!
October 3, 2012 - Melanie Moore on Glee!
Oops she did it again! Are you a Gleek? If you are then perhaps you've spotted Season 8 winner Melanie Moore, dancing behind Glee's leading lady in some of her recent routines! Scheduled to dance in the first six episodes of Glee, Mel will perform in her fourth episode tomorrow night at 8pm central, so even if you aren't a Gleek - make sure to give the episode a little watch, and keep an eye out for Your Favorite Dancer - Miss Melanie Moore. See if you can spot her in this video of Rachel's "Oops I Did It Again" cover!
Link to Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVLwlFJad54
October 12, 2012 - Love & Sytycd
We've seen our fair share of love and relationships on Sytycd, although most of them are staged, we have the delightful pairs of Tabatha and Napoleon and Jean-Marc & his beautiful wife, who all choreograph for the show regularly. However, there's a NEW So You Think You Can Dance love on the horizon, between season 2's Allison Holker from Season 2 and Season 4's Stephen Boss aka Twitch! Pix started showing up on twitter of the weekend the three (Allison, Twitch & Allison's daughter Sydney) with some sweetheart tweets. These culminated in a tweet from Allison Tuesday night saying "How could this girl be so lucky to have found her KING!! He swept me off my feet and I'm still hanging!!!" Along with this way too sweet picture - who knew?

October 23, 2012 - Tour Starts Tonight
Did you know that the So You Think You Can Dance Season 9 Tour starts tonight! The top ten have been all over twitter talking about how excited and nervous they are! So if you get a chance, hop on on twitter and give a little good luck shout out to the gang! Don't forget to mention @SytycdReviews in your tweet and I'll upload the picture to the blog in the V.I.P section! Rock on you guys!! :)
TDL – So You Think You Can Dance: To Do List
Hey there!
I'm definitely going
through withdrawls right now. Blogging the season was such a big part of my
life during the season and now that the season is over, I'm going through the
regular withdraws of missing my Wednesday night entertainment, and not getting to
enjoy watching insanely brilliant dancers every week - with the now ADDED
withdraws of not having something to blog about every day.
What I've discovered
however, is that I truly LOVE blogging. People have tried to tell me for years
that I should take it up, but I've never had something that I'm equally as
passionate about that I've felt the need to blog about it, but So You Think You
Can Dance Takes the cake. So - while I won't be blogging every day, the
off-season will be about several different things. Below I've listed my To-Do
List. The list will change regularly, but I won't take things off until they're
done - and I promise to include you on EVERYTHING!
Now, as with any
To-Do List - I might need your help on some of these things. Things I'm working
on alone will be highlighted in blue and things
I need help on will be highlighted in red.
Please pay extra close attention to the RED things! When something is completed I'll remove it
from the "To-Do List" and put it under the "Done List"
which is a little further down. I really, really, need your help!
So what's in it for
you? Recognition perhaps? Take a screen shot (using the prt sc key on your
keyboard and then copy and paste into paint and save) of you completing one of
the jobs and e-mail it to the blog at sytycdjrc@gmail.com along with a name
you'd like to be known by (I suggest a first name only, or a screen name like
Twitter or Google+). I'm going to add a VIP section for all those helping to
make this blog what it should be. I'll add your pic and your name, and it will
NEVER come down! :)
So pick an item and
help me out! The recognition will certainly be worth it in this blog's hay day!
If WE get there together!
Thanks so much guys -
counting down the days until next season! :)
Jazzy
TO-DO LIST!!
1. SHARE THE SITE!!
Certainly the most important! We need to get this blog on the map! I feel
so honored that everytime I post I'm knocking the door of fifty hits, no matter
how insignificant the post is. That may not seem like a lot but for someone who
is just starting out - it's HUGE, but now that I know people are interested, I
want to know who's IN! So we need to share this blog! Post the website to your
facebook, twitter, blog, website, e-mail, youtube, anything you can think of!
Some of the things lower on the list - will CERTAINLY help as I complete them,
but for now the blog is all we got! HELP OUT FRIENDS! Take a screen shot of you
sharing the page right now - and you could call the FIRST spot on the VIP list
YOURS! You can also help by following the blog - you do need a blogger to do
this, but it's quick and easy to sign up - and the more followers the blog has
the further up it will appear on search engines when people search for so you
think you can dance. :D
4. DID YOU KNOW!!
I've added a new section - not sure how many of you know, called
"Did You Know" they're little blurbs about dancers, not just of the
past season, but from every season. Things that they're doing, where you can
see them, as well as things related to the show, like audition dates, or any
info about the upcoming season of the show. I look for things and try and keep
up on my own - however, any info you have PLEASE send it! I can share as much
as there is to know about the show as possible, only with YOUR help!! E-mail
any info you have to the blog at sytycdjrc@gmail.com :)
5. HOW'S IT GOIN??
At the bottom there's a spot to post comments! Please, please, PLEASE,
post and tell me what you think of the blog, things you think I can do to
improve the blog or make it better FOR YOU! Anything you feel like saying
personally, you can e-mail to the blog at sytycdjrc@gmail.com!
P.S. If there's anything specific you would like to see changed or added
on the refined layout, please let me know! You can comment, or e-mail the blog
at sytycdjrc@gmail.com!
DONE:
2. SOCIAL NETWORKING!! :) Finally got a Twitter and Facebook page up and
running for the blog! Go check em out on the "Contact Info" page
towards the top left part of the site! Use em to start sharing!
3. NEW LAYOUT!! :) Featuring a new layout with the Sytycd Logo - and an
opacity on the blog posts to make things a little easier to look at. Archive is
on the left side now, which is easier on the eye. Added a hot pages section at
the top, the most viewed three pages will appear here. A few other color
nuances and things of that nature, and if you're wondering who's feet we're
seeing on the page are Mark's of season 4!! :)
6. ARCHIVING!! :) If you look on the upper left section of the page
there's a go-to page called "season 9 archives" it's there that you
can find the new archiving method, thanks to Max from AZ. While I'll keep the
season 9 posts up for a while longer, I've already made the archives available
so that people can start to understand how they work.
7. GO TO PAGES!! :) I've finally developed some Go-To Pages where you can go to find everything all at once, not just at the bottom of the critiques like in season 9. You can find contact info, about me info, voting info - plus some other suggest go-to info that people were looking for like info on the judges, past winners, and dancer profiles. Check em out, tell me what you think!! :)
8. REFINED CRITIQUE LAYOUT!!
Season 10 is still SO far away, but I'm already getting started on a
refined layout for next season's critiques that make finding your faves easier,
and making the voting info a little easier to understand!

CheckIn – So You Think You Can Dance: Checking In
I hope everyone has had a FANTASTIC week so far - halfway through! The weekend isn't far behind!!
Somethings you should know!!
- Added our first person to the V.I.P list a couple of weeks ago! Go check him out, and find the To-Do list to see how you can be added, will be under the September Archive.
- Also added our first person to our Dance Spotlight list - Travis Bye - he's WAY excellent so you'll want to check him out! He's gone out for Sytycd twice and made it to vegas!
- Twitter is doing well, but the Facebook, not so well, we need people to go and like the page. www.facebook.com/SytycdReviews Just takes a few seconds. Please do it!! :)
- The blog is filling up quicker than I thought, so I'll be taking the Season 9 Critiques down in the next few days here, but never fret - if you head over to the Season 9 Archives go-to page you can download the zipped file including all the critiques, the Sytycd Profile pics of your winners Eliana and Chehon AND my Cyrus compilation video - for FREE. It's okay - you can go back to being happy now.
- Last but not least, while it's nice to have a Sytycd Layout as the background for the blog, it would be really awesome to have a SytycdReviews theme! So if anyone is up to the task - you can design a cool background image for the blog, including the Sytycd logo AND the SytycdReviews name (no logo design yet, that's up to you) and e-mail it to the blog, I just might use it! Anyone who sends a pic will automatically be highlighted on the V.I.P list, just for going to the trouble!!
TTYL!

It2Repo – So You Think You Can Dance: A Few Items to
Report
Hey there! It's been
a little bit - finals and work are keeping me on my toes. Thanksgiving marks a
well deserved break for me, and nearly the end of the semester so I'm itching
to get there. Bear with me until then as I don't have AS much time to post and
promote - of course you could help with the promotion part. ;)
There are a few
things I'd like to report - see them below!
First - I attended
the So You Think You Can Dance Season 9 tour this last weekend and it was an
absolute BLAST! Unfortunately my camera broke just days before the show and my
camera phone took HORRIBLE pictures. I'll upload some of the ones that were
worth hanging onto, but really the only way to experience this season's tour is
personally. If tickets aren't already sold out in your area, please strongly
consider getting some - you WONT be disappointed!
If you go to Just
Dance's Facebook or Twitter pages you can also learn more information on how
you could WIN tickets to tour - go check it out! :)
Still no info on
Season 10, but Nigel announced on his Twitter that audition dates and cities
for season 10 will be released soon, and then I'm sure info about the season in
general will be sure to follow. It's not abnormal for there to be no new season
info until after the previous season's tour has wrapped up, so we should be
hearing in a few weeks. I'll be certain to keep you posted.
Remeber there are
still TONS of ways you can get involved on the blog and on the blog's various
pages. We're always looking for new followers on Facebook and Twitter, and
anyone willing to give us a shout out will earn themselves a place on our
V.I.P. wall!
Once tour is over we
really start to get impatient for the new season, so once things calm down a
little bit I'll start adding more items to the did you know section, and will
be trying to upload a weekly dance clip from this past season to remind you of
all the excellent routines this season produced!
Finally here's a
delightful article from Yahoo news about three things Season 10 could do to be
better. The third one, if any of you have read any of my critiques, is
especially important to me, check it out - it's not too long. Which changes do
YOU think Sytycd needs to make for Season 10? Comment below! :)
Well friends that's
about all. Make sure you're downloading the Season 9 critiques from the
Archives go-to page if you want them. I'll be taking them off the blog soon and
then you'll ONLY be able to see them in the archives, but then you also get
those awesome Eliana and Chehon pics and a personal copy of Cyrus's compilation
video for free - what more could you ask for!?
Adios Amigos!

ThxGiv – So You Think You Can Dance: Thanksgiving
Hello All My Friends!
Happy Thanksgiving to
all of you!
For those of you
unaware, my dad was in a horrible car accident last week, he survived but the
event has been life altering. I was hoping to get the blog updated this week,
but that's been pretty time consuming. Hopefully I'll have some time tomorrow!
Thanks for your
patience!!
Jazzy
10Ago – So You Think You Can Dance: Season 10 A-Go
Hey Guys!
It's been a while
right? Down season + consecutive holidays = distractions. :)
But I'm back - and
with excellent news! Fox has picked up Season 10 of So You Think You Can Dance,
starting with auditions in Austin, Texas the summer of 2013.
There had been scary
discussions for a while about the show not getting picked up again due to the
lowest ratings the show has ever seen, but Fox determined that people just
don't like change and gave the show that touches all of our hearts the benefit
of the doubt, and another season of dancers will be rolling in.
While no dates for
auditions have been announced yet, the confirmation is exciting to say the
least, and with tour officially over for the Season 9 crew, Sytycd Fanatics
will be excited to roll out the red carpet for Season 10.
There have also been
hints that Season 10 will be similar to Season 9 as opposed to previous
seasons, airing once a week instead of two, although critics are saying the
main reason Sytycd lost so many viewers Season 9 is due to the constant upset
in the show's weekly schedule. MLB & The Olympics in the beginning,
switching days towards the end, hopeful fans are praying that the show finds a
constant stream and stays in it, allowing viewers to really get into the swing
of things.
As always, as soon as
I know more, you'll know more and of course if anyone out there has any info I
don't, drop me a line - sytycdjrc@gmail.com - you never know what may end up
here on the blog!
Thanks Y'all!!
Jazzy

LotsUp – So You Think You Can Dance: Lots of Updates
Hey Everybody!
It's been a while I
know, I won't bore you with excuses, but rather get right along to the
multitudes of exciting updates in the Sytycd dance world!! :)
First off, for those
of you who haven't heard, winners Chehon and Eliana have moved on to bigger and
better things! Chehon will be starting a world tour very soon, an Eliana is set
to go on tour with Taylor Swift! Way to go Season 9 winners! You're doing us
all so proud!
Secondly, have you
been following the sweet love story of Allison Holker & Stephen
"Twitch" Boss? It culminated in an absolutely beautiful proposal a
couple weeks ago, to which Allison happily said 'yes.' She replied a sweet
"thanks" to the page's twitter when we congratulated her, saying
"I'm so excited."
Cyrus is ALSO doing
big things, having just performed with Andre Rucker and Brian Gainer on 106
& Park late last week, when the show invited The Duck to perform. While the
song itself was mind-numbingly stupid, it was lovely to see Cyrus back on
stage! He's living in L.A. Now and adjusting seems to be going very well.
Lindsay Arnold, one
of our two Season 9 ballroom dancers, is going to get to be an instructor on
Dancing With the Stars this season, partnering with boxer Victor Ortiz. We've
seen Sytycd Vets perform on the show before, most notably Lacey Schwimmer from
season 3, but the transfer has NEVER happened this quickly before. We're so
proud of Lindsay and can't wait to see her lead her partner to victory! :)
A new movie is in the
works, starring Witney Carson and Chehon from Season 9 called "East Side
Story" and for all you West Side Story fanatics that are freaking out
about the remake, relax. East Side Story is really going to be extremely
different, while still very musical and a love story, the cornerstone of the
movie will be dancing, and by that I mean, the two main groups of people will
be competitive dance teams, not gangs like in the original. While the movie is
still a ways out, regular tweets from Witney and other related cast members has
us excited early on!
And that's it for now
guys! Our dancers are doing big things! If I've missed anything, feel free to
drop the page a line, or tweet us - all necessary info is over on the contact
page, we'd love to hear from you! :)
Keep calm - the dance
season is soon upon us!
Jazzy
P.S. Season 10
auditions are going very well! A good friend of mine was able to go and watch
the Chicago auditions and was taken aback by the talent pool, he says it's
gonna be a good season! More info soon to follow! :)
