Bloggin' the Wall: Get into It!

WallBlogPandaman.jpg

Think about this description: "Body-bending, mind-twisting, global game show phenomenon."

You probably shrugged it off, didn't you?

"Meh. So? Just more hype for another lousy show that won't last three episodes...yawn."

I was once like you! I doubted! I was cynical, I was angry, I was disappointed.

TV was a big let-down...and I was one sad bear.

But, life doesn't have to be so cold, friends!

I was lost, but now am found - AND SO CAN YOU BE, TOO!

Behold, a powerhouse that lives up to the hype - a train wreck from which you can't look away, a mix of comedy, athletics and luck so unique and perfect, I am devoting a new blog to it, here on Electric Blogaloo!

Hole. In. The. Wall.

Yes!

SYTYCD #23: Season 4 is Over!

SYTYCD Blog

Well, everyone, So You Think You Can Dance? Season 4 has come to an end! The Top 4 put in amazing performances on Wednesday, but America voted...and it all comes down to one lucky and talented winner. I was a little surprised by it, though.

Really? I wasn't at all.

We'll discuss that more in just a little bit. Let's start off by going through the big finale, though. I assumed everyone watched?

DancerX.jpgThis was the best year we've ever seen...the dances have been spectacular. And as nice as it would have been to relive the greatest moments of Season 4...no. Dancer X did not watch, already knowing how the show was going to end, anyway.

Clyde.jpgGood man or woman or whatever you are, X. I'll fully admit, I didn't watch the entire show. In fact, I was watching the season finale of Last Comic Standing, and, while I DID predict the winner of THAT show correctly...only saw bits and pieces of SYTYCD. No big, deal, though...I mean, they only had 2 minutes worth of interesting new information to tell us.

Nope. Didn't care at all. Who won?

Well...I was going to have us talk about the entire finale and hold that off until the end, but...if no one WATCHED, we might as well forget that idea.

Tango.jpgNow, just a minute, Julie! Not all of us let you down. Of course I watched! It was a great show, and it's a disgrace that those three decided not to tune in. I oughta' lock you all away!

DancerX.jpgKeep your hands off Dancer X! It is not necessary to watch when you have ALREADY SCRIPTED OUT THE ENTIRE SHOW FOR AMERICA. LOOK AT THE PREDICTIONS...DANCER X IS A GENIUS!

Sit down, Dancer X. And, thank you, Sgt. Tango. At least YOU were there with us! Overall, good finale, better than American Idol's finale. And no Julie, that wasn't a jab at your precious David Cook, that was a jab at how annoying, overdone, and lame American Idol is. I mean did you see an 10 minute long advertisements for a Mike Myers movie during the show tonight? No. It was all about the dancing. Well done Nigel, and Simon Fuller on getting at least one show right.

Clyde.jpgI can't believe anyone would call this stupid show lame compared to Idol. Idol is absolutely vanilla and predictable, and they waste a LOT of time. But THIS show is a disjointed, unbearable parade of annoying people. There's no contest...Idol is SO much better, I can't believe that this thing has even been on the air for 4 seasons.

You know what? This is actually pretty interesting...let's just talk about the show a bit and maybe we can bring up a thing or two that happened during the finale, just kind of do a highlight reel and then go to the big results!

Sounds good to me. Did they do the Bollywood dance, again?

SYTYCD #22: The Last Dance (or Six)

SYTYCD Blog

Dance%20Crew.jpg

Well, we are down to the top four, and tonight we have a full house judging. First up Mandy Moore is on the actual judging panel, and here's EVERYONE on our judging team! Julie Heart and I are joined by Artie Funk, Clyde Collins, Dancer X, and Officer Tango!

Tango.jpgThat's SERGEANT Tango. I was a Sergeant.

Oh, right. How could I have forgotten? Anyway, as you can see, the whole panel of guest judges is here with us, tonight...

...big show, big panel! We've got a huge night of dancing to sort through, and it is going to be harder than EVER to make a call on who should win it all.

top4.jpg
Your Top 4 Finalists!
Pictured L-R: Twitch Boss, Katee Shean, Courtney Galiano and Joshua Allen.

In all honesty, I think I would be happy if any of these dancers win. They were all such a joy to watch this season!

Clyde.jpgLook, they've already sent Chelsie home, so...I've got no favorites left in this competition. I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that Twitch will win, before even watching anything, just because he comes with a brand name and people get behind that kind of thing.

Oh, Clyde...will we EVER get to the end of a reality show without you whining about the one you like being sent home?

Clyde.jpgUntil America starts picking the right people to win, no! Probably. Instead we get stuck with bald phonies like David Coo -

DON'T YOU DARE, CLYDE! I WILL HAVE SECURITY THROW YOU OUT OF THIS BUILDING IF YOU START MESSING WITH DAVID COOK, DO YOU HEAR ME?! HE IS A STAR, HE WON, HE'S GREAT, LEAVE HIM ALONE!

Clyde.jpgSeriously? You'll have me kicked out?

Wait...NO! YOU'D LIKE THAT! I'LL FORCE YOU TO WATCH THE ENTIRE SHOW THREE TIMES, TIED TO THE CHAIR, CLOCKWORK ORANGE-STYLE, YOU WILL BE HERE FOR SIX HOURS OF DANCING!

Clyde.jpgTouchy, touchy, Julie. I'll leave Baldo out of it, that's fine. But I'm still calling Twitch to win. Half out of cheeky disrespect for the show, half out of having seen him dance two or three times, this season.

Interesting prediction, Clyde...but even though you've already named who you think will win, you still have to stay here and watch the entire show with us!

Clyde.jpgSeriously? Ugh. I hoped that would've been enough - I even tried firing Julie up about that troll David Cook...

I hate David Cook as much as you do, like any reasonable person who likes music that doesn't suck. You know that. But, sorry...you're stuck here.

Hey! You knock it off, too!

Ha ha. Couldn't resist. But, sorry, Clyde...you're stuck here with us for the ENTIRE show.

Clyde.jpgIT'S JUST SO...LONG! I mean, come on! I was in Maui, for crying out loud! MAUI, Daph!

Boo hoo hoo. Just relax and watch the show, Collins! And stop calling me "Daph!"

DancerX.jpgDancer X also believes Clyde is acting like a crybaby!

Yeah? Well...I'm with my dogg, Clyde! I'm sorry, lovely ladies...but I have TRIED to watch this show a few times this summer to help you out...and it is probably the worst thing ever.

Artie! We're about to start the big finale!

Clyde.jpgWhy do we always come here?

I guess we'll never know...

Artie%20and%20Clyde.jpgIt's like a kind of TORTURE to have to watch this show!

Very funny, Muppets. Now, this is the LAST night of dancing...so, let's just watch and have fun! Courtney and Twitch are first up doing a Hip Hop routine.

Two of Four of the So You Think You Can Dance Finalists Collapsed During Saturday Rehearsals.

A pair of So You Think You Can Dance finalists reportedly took the expression "dance 'til you drop" a little too literally.

Two of So You Think You Can Dance's Top 4 fourth-season finalists reportedly collapsed during Saturday rehearsals and were subsequently rushed to nearby Cedars Sinai Hospital, People reported Monday.

"The kids are completely dehydrated -- two of them," So You Think You Can Dance judge Mary Murphy told People. "I'm sure they're doing a lot of blood work to see if there's anything else."
