Adam Shankman is so successful in so many areas of entertainment, that I’m always interested to hear his perspectives. In this video Adam talks about what it means that SYTYCD has reached its tenth season and what SYTYCD has meant to dance. Enjoy!
An interview with Adam Shankman discussing So You Think You Can Dance 2013:
SYTYCD 2013 Judge and Executive Producer, Nigel Lythgoe, discusses what we can expect on SYTYCD 2013 in the following video interview. He talks about how amazing it is that SYTYCD is in its tenth season. Nigel also talks about the most shocking thing he’s seen on SYTYCD. If you’re a SYTYCD fan you’ll enjoy this interview.
An interview with Nigel Lythgoe discussing So You Think You Can Dance 2013:
Those of us on the west coast are still waiting for the second night of the SYTYCD 2013 premiere to start. However, many on the east coast are already itching to talk about the music from tonight’s episode of SYTYCD season 10. So, I thought I’d start a thread for people to leave a list of the music they know from tonight’s episode of SYTYCD.
We did quite good listing the music from last night’s So You Think You Can Dance 2013 premiere episode. Hopefully we can do the same again tonight.
Thanks!

Next up in our SYTYCD 2013 judges interviews is tWitch. That’s right, tWitch is a guest judge on SYTYCD 2013 in Detroit. Pretty amazing that he’s gone from not even making SYTYCD Vegas week, to being on the show, to being a SYTYCD All Star and now a SYTYCD judge. Plus, it seems that the world can’t get enough of tWitch. Plus, how great that him and Allison Holker are together!
Enjoy the following interview with tWitch where he discusses So You Think You Can Dance season 10.
Cat Deeley has certainly had quite a journey on SYTYCD. I can’t imagine having a better host for the show. She’s been wonderful. Plus, she’s great on camera as you’ll see in the following interview with Cat Deeley about SYTYCD 2013. She also makes an interesting point about SYTYCD being on Fox. Enjoy the Cat Deeley interview!
As most of you know, we’ve always done our best here at Pure SYTYCD to list all of the various music that’s used on SYTYCD. Unfortunately, all of us are quite busy with the day jobs and so we won’t be able to be nearly as good at listing the music on SYTYCD this year as we have done in the past. That is unless someone wants to volunteer to help us out (Drop me a note here if you’re interested).
With that said, that doesn’t mean that readers of this site can’t help each other out. In fact, in the past the community has been an excellent support in helping us all learn the various music learned on SYTYCD. So, for SYTYCD 2013 we’re asking you to help in the comments. If you know the music that was used on the show, then please share so that others can find the music. I’ll do my best to add it to the post when a song is confirmed as well.
With that bit of business aside, I have to say that this might have been one of the best SYTYCD premiere’s I’ve seen in the 9 seasons I’ve been watching SYTYCD. Some really extraordinary dancing. Some funny comments. Some amazing stories. I watch for all of those things and the So You Think You Can Dance 2013 premiere had all three.
What did you think about the show tonight? Was it what you expected? Who was your favorite?
Also, check back tomorrow when I’m hoping to finally get some video interviews posted of Cat Deeley, Nigel Lythgoe, tWitch, Mary Murphy, and Adam Shankman.

One video wasn’t nearly enough for tonight. So, here’s another video with Nigel Lythgoe, Mary Murphy, Adam Shankman, Twitch, and Cat Deeley talking about So You Think You Can Dance Season 2013. Plus, they show a ton of great moments from last season to remind us why we love the show. Enjoy!
For those who can’t wait for tomorrow night, I’ll try and distract you with more videos tomorrow.
SYTYCD 2013 premiere is a 2 night event Tuesday, May 14 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, May 15 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
As if all of you weren’t already excited for the premiere of the 10th season of So You Think You Can Dance, this video is going to pump all of you up. Nerds and dancers alike are going to love it. It’s called The Science of Dance and does an amazing job illustrating the beauty and technique of so many dancers. I can assure you that you won’t be able to watch this video just once. Enjoy!
We’ve got a lot more videos we’d like to post before the premiere tomorrow night. SYTYCD 2013 premiere is a 2 night event Tuesday, May 14 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, May 15 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
I recently asked people on Twitter which choreographer they were most excited to see come back. I’ll probably do a future post with the various answers. Although, I was struck by the number of people who said Travis Wall. After seeing so many responses, I wanted to see if Travis Wall was liked more than Mia Michaels when it comes to contemporary choreography. You can vote below (and be sure to share it on Twitter so we can get more people involved the voting).
I’ll plan to share the results at a later date. This should be interesting.
I always love it when my worlds collide. Tonight tWitch and Allison Holker danced on Dancing with the Stars. Those two need no introduction on this site. Although, many on this site might not know Lindsey Stirling from America’s Got Talent (Although, Lindsey is probably more famous from YouTube than from AGT). Anyway, it’s a great performance and it’s wonderful to see Allison and tWitch dancing together. Enjoy the video of their dance embedded below.
I think it’s time I bust out the video I recorded of Allison and tWitch dancing together in a night club in Las Vegas. Comfort was there as well. Who would like to see that?
