Man, Wade Robson has that amazing star quality in his dancing as well as his choreography. I couldn’t take my eyes off Wade Robson in this performance of Ramalama. Plus, the dancers from So You Think You Can Dance season 2 are awesome. Check out the video of “Ramalama (Bang Bang)” 
sung by Róisín Murphy and choreographed by Wade Robson:
This I think is probably the highlight of the 100th So You Think You Can Dance episode.
Time again for everyone’s favorite list of music. Yes, we’re talking about the So You Think You Can Dance music. SYTYCD reaching 100 episodes is awesome. The biggest sadness is that they only went 1 hour instead of 2. Also, make sure you check out the SYTYCD 100th episode discussion thread.

It’s that time again. Everyones time to complain cheer discuss why their favorite (or least favorite) dancer was kicked off on tonight’s SYTYCD results show. Also, a time to revel in SYTYCD turning 100. 100 episodes of happiness. Well for the most part.
Also, just a reminder that tomorrow is the presale for the So You Think You Can Dance 2009 Tour tickets. I’d appreciate fans of Pure SYTYCD clicking through the link above to buy their tickets on Ticketmaster. It’s the same price as going to Ticketmaster directly, but Pure SYTYCD gets a commission if you click through this site. Always nice to have a little extra income to keep the lights on and take my wife out to dinner.
Thanks and let the discussion begin!! I think all I’ll have to say is…HEIDI!! Woot!!

We’re down to the So You Think You Can Dance Top 8. All we have left are 8 amazing dancers. I absolutely adore this part of the show. There’s nothing left but talent that brings it every week. The hard part is tomorrow when someone has to get sent home. Tonight, we just sit back, relax and enjoy the show.
Let the discussion begin. As always, I won’t be participating in the discussion until after the West Coast gets a chance to see So You Think You Can Dance.
Also, I will be posting the music for tonight’s SYTYCD as I get it. Plus, you’ll want to go and register to win free SYTYCD Workout DVD’s if you haven’t done so already.
Time to hear the elimination interviews for Randi Evans and Kupono Aweau. All I can say is get ready for the giggles. Randi and Kupono were far too happy for having just gotten booted from SYTYCD. Still it’s a really entertaining interview. You can see how much both of them enjoyed being on the show and they truly appreciated the experience and the opportunity to share their dance with us. Kupono is a bit over the top with the costuming, but that’s cool if that’s his thing.
It will be fun to see these 2 on the So You Think You Can Dance tour. I think someone has to get some pictures of the outfit Kupono puts together for the “butler boy” on the boy’s bus.
Enjoy the final Randi and Kupono interview:
Seems like these discussion threads have been popular. So, I’ll keep doing it. It is nice to have a place for people to share their thoughts about the latest episode of So You Think You Can Dance. In fact, almost always someone says what I was thinking in the comments. Also, be sure to check out the music from tonight’s episode of SYTYCD.
