Unlike singing competitions which can begin to feel like karaoke night twice a week, So You Think You Can Dance is fresh and will keep renewing itself. Dance is always changing, always becoming more global, technical, artistic, theatrical, and more. There are no limits in dance, and thus this show has the potential to go on forever.
The greatest thing about this show is the showcase of the different genres by gifted dancers. Not only is it a "competition" show, it is a performance show. Sure there are the judges to comment, phone numbers to call, and bottom three to fret about, but in the end this show achieves the most in broadcasting the world of dance.

So sad and disappointed. This has been my favorite program for many years. This year was simply a cheap version of a spectacular premise. The dancers they chose were not as good. I missed the presence of the past winners. Nigel and Mary were the best part of the show. And finally you cannot be America's favorite dancer if America cannot vote on the favorite dancer. Please please remove the show but bring back its former glory.
I study voice and so when I watch a show like American Idol, I can tell when they're faking it. Worse - they always get away with it. I also dance, so I was not going to turn away an opportunity to watch a dancing American Idol. Way better than the original. You just can't fake it. The dancers are either good or they're bad - no getting around it. The result? An absolutely amazing hour of dances that remind you to love the arts. There's hip hop and ballroom the entire spectrum is covered. I personally can't wait for a second season and would recommend this show to anyone who has ever tapped their foot while listening to music. It's just that good.
I am disappointed in so you tycdance. In the final episodes randomly pairing people & deciding who remains based on the best of the pairing. Who in the world thought this would be a viable way to end up with the best dancers. Could you have not spent a little more brainpower to come up with another way to eliminate people. If you wanted to do the pairing-do it-give each dancer a score then after all dancers have performed base the elimination on score comparison amongst all of the dancers. The dancers with the lowest scores would then be eliminated. The process you used was totally unfair- made no sense. Totally ridiculous brought me such disappointment in the show.
I have been a fan since season 1 and have adjusted to each new tweak in format as it came along, until 2022. This newest format doesn't have much going to recommend it. For starters it's too rushed. We went from auditions to live shows in a blink. This didn't leave any time for us as viewers to get invested in any of the dancers, or their fates. Next in the line of fire is the new voting. Going from mass audience voting to only using the studio audience, I've been in that studio and it's not a lot of people, is a joke. Millions of opinions down to dozens of audience members deciding on "America's Favourite Dancer" is laughable. Then the judges decide who goes home...and then there's the judges. Leah and tWitch are great. JoKo is loud and pretty obnoxious. I'll hang in there for the love of dance and loyalty, this time. I hope they reassess after this season, and go back to what made this a competition show in the first place because legacy loyalty only goes so far and I won't sit through this format again.

- TriviaBenji Schwimmer revealed that because of limited time with choreographers dancers sometimes had to invent the routines themselves. In particular he noted that he choreographed most of his La Salsa dance with Heidi Groskreutz-Burns as well as almost the entirety of his hop-hop routine with Travis Wall.
