Okay, so.. I'm watching So You Think You Can Dance and I'm enjoying the beautiful dancing, but I am a little annoyed that this time around, the audience is actually a lot more vocal during the performances than in years past. To me, this shouldn't be. I mean... I understand what the judges are referring to when they talk about the connection lost between the dancers, but having a whooping and hollering audience doesn't help any. When you perform, you perform for an audience so that connection should be there, but that audience should not interfere with it. It isn't some rock concert. I mean, you wouldn't do that at a symphony or at a ballet... or *gasp* during a ballroom comp. So, why here?

Perhaps I'm just talking to the wall right now, but I needed to get that off my chest.

IJWTS - Someone put a children's rendition of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" in my mailbox the other day, un-posted, un-stamped. I can't think of anyone who would do such a thing with the serious intent of sending some sort of cryptic message. I'm amused and at the same time :confused:. Probably kids.

:thumbsup:


I must say that I'm enjoying the other parts of the new format though. I love that they have the newbies with "seasoned vets" and that they don't cut-off the performances like they used to. But, hush, audience... hush! :sput:

IJWTS- that when I was getting gas this morning before work, a guy drove up in an exact replica car from The Dukes of Hazzard. *sigh* Only in the South.

IJWTS2- I went to a movie tonight and had more fun watching the peoples reaction around me than the actual movie. I mean seriously- they cheered, they clapped, they groaned and they busted out in loud laughs and snorts. Classic :)

ijwts- For some reason i've been watching TLC tonight and i've learned the following:
1. Several people choose to have monkey babies and raise them as human children.
2. Several people don't know they are pregnant with human babies until they are actually having the baby.
3. Several people enter their human children in tacky pagants and parade them in front of women that wear too much make-up and fat men like show ponies for fun.
4. Several people dress their monkey babies up in pagent like dresses for a family portrait while the monkey is secretly thinking about clawing off their face.
