A Short Review of the Finals of So You Think You Dan Dance - Fox Broadcasting - Episode 15 - Season 12 - Sept. 7 - 2015.

          All the numerous and loyal fans of SYTYCD "reality" dance show are anxiously expecting tonight's finals. The viewers widely expressed their preferences regarding the judging system, the voting and other factors connected with the drastic departure - in this season - from the established model of this popular show - held steady for the past eleven seasons. The public forum of the show by their Facebook space reflects the views of mostly - decently - educated Americans of various ages. We could unscientifically call that forum a snapshot of sorts of the United States' viewers - even if it's hard to imagine a lot of blue-collar workers liking the dance show - but anything is possible.
       Before the finals - the contestants go through harsh eliminations with the judges weighing in. During this season - several contestants aroused a lot of adulation coupled with virulent hatred - a phenomenon familiar to all the great movie stars. Public forums present at times a danger that a well sounding - "closet" lunatic - will cause a big, "lynching" mob of irrational voices - to release its abhorrent torrent of hate.
       That was the case with an extremely good looking, bold and outspoken - Israeli contestant named Asaf Goren - a phenomenal break dancer - who aroused a lot of strong feelings of extreme kinds. A lot of the negativity had a pronounced - anti-Israel - anti-Semitic - ugly flavor to it - since the politics always - slip into any dance contest. Thus, after the "shower" of hatred - against gorgeous dancer - Asaf Goren - tons of support of all sorts - poured in. Only in America - folks.
      Tonight's finals are ready for the proverbial "pendulum" swing the other way in terms of a cute female dancer - Jaja - a talented foreigner - ready to be voted "the most popular dancer" in America. It's questionable if they deserve the title or not - still - that title does not mean a lot - anyway. It will be decided by the judges - but America votes - as well. So, they tell us.

      At any rate - watch the finals tonight and don't forget to click here for the short review of the conclusion to the finals. Have fun and have a great week - the Labor Day one - which marks the end of the summer - so the glorious fall could finally - arrive!

      An Important Note of Interest - The dancer/judge - during that season of So You Think You Can Dance - contest/show - Stephen Boss - who was the most virulent and unfair critic of a gorgeous/accomplished Israeli dancer - Asaf Goren - committed suicide on May 25 - 2023.
