VideosReality Check: Who’s Getting a Winner’s Edit on Idol — and Do They Deserve It?
Whether or not Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow, Fox executives must retreat to the nearest conference room, blast audio of Mary Murphy’s “Hot Tamale Train” battle cry on repeat loop, and not emerge until they’ve sent their blueprint for Season 13 through a cross-cut shredder.

So You Think You Can Dance fans, I have a dilemma.
For much of Wednesday’s Top 10 performance show — which paired each finalist with an All-Star dancer from seasons past — I couldn’t quite decide whether the Top 10 were put at an advantage or disadvantage by dancing with Sytycd vets.
Take, for example, what I considered tonight’s most entertaining routine: a fun hip-hop number between Jessica Richens and her All-Star companion, Twitch. On her own, Jessica did an excellent job with the fast-paced routine (and started to break away from the idea that she can only excel at jazz...

Tears were streaming during So You Think You Can Dance Wednesday - even before two more dancers were sent home. The night turned emotional early on, when, with his Swiss parents in the audience for the first time, ballet dancer Cheyon Wespi-Tschopp took to the stage for his solo. "You have to remember these dancers are kids who have dreamed of doing this their whole life," guest judge Jesse Tyler Ferguson told People after Wednesday’s show. "They grew up far away from L.A. and then are transplanted here. I think it is overwhelming for them." The tears continued...

Perhaps it's his infectious enthusiasm or his clear passion for the show. Whatever it is, "Modern Family" star Jesse Tyler Ferguson keeps getting invited back as a guest judge on "So You Think You Can Dance."
This time, he was on hand to watch yet another powerful performance by all-star Allison Holker. This time, she was partnered with martial arts dancer Cole Horibe, who was asked to portray a sadistic and soulless character.
Cole perfectly captured the character, as he has in previous weeks, bringing the judges to their feet. It wouldn't be their last time on a night filled with strong performances. But it was this one that left Ferguson shaking and in need of a cocktail.
Mary Murphy's favorite performance was Chehon Wespi-Tschopp's Argentine tango performed with all-star Anya Garnis, while all three judges were on their feet once again after the final number of the...

Jesse Tyler Ferguson — “weird and creepy and not a stalker,” he swears — just loves to come back and be a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance. The Modern Family star invented the Hot Jalapeno Bus (a new friend for Mary Murphy’s Hot Tamale Train), and poignantly called out Will’s personal-story junket (“Dance saved my life…”) as a reason why arts programs are so important to schools. He is, quite simply, the best.
Meanwhile, the Top 8′s parents made everyone cry by talking about how proud they were (Chehon’s mom and Tiffany’s dad especially...

Mitchell Kelly and Clarice Ordaz were eliminated from So You Think You Can dance last night, as the top ten became the top eight!
The result was announced during last night’s live results show, after the two dancers received among the lowest amount of public votes following their performances the night before.
Joining them in the bottom four were Ricky Jaime and Jordan Casanova and all the unlucky contestants were asked to perform a solo routine, for what may have been their last time on the hit Fox dance show.
Broadway star Neil Patrick Harris joined regular judges Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy for the week and after deliberating over the fate of the talented hopefuls, the trio were unanimous in their decision to eliminate Mitchell Kelly and Clarice Ordaz.
Ricky and Jordan go on to dance another week an will join Tadd Guaddang, Jess LeProtto, Melanie Moore, Marko Germar,...

Tonight is the season eight premiere of So You Think You Can Dance. And if you believe the commercials, the talent is better than ever before. Given the quality of dancers last season and the prior years, we do find that a little hard to believe. But knowing what a great vehicle the show is to expose these otherwise unknowns to millions of fans, it only makes sense that the b-boys, tappers, krumpers and ballerinas are crawling out of the woodwork to get on the show. So while we wait to see how this year's dancers measure up, here's a list of our favorite Sytycd routines to date.
10. Jeanine Mason and Jason Glover — "If It Kills Me" by Jason Mraz
Choreographed by Travis Wall
In season five, the runner-up from season two, Travis Wall, returned to Sytycd to make his debut as a choreographer.
