My So You Think You Can Dance 2008 Predictions

UPDATE AUGUST 7, 2008: Joshua was the winner! And, for a finale, it was actually quite fun. I could have done without the Jonas Brothers (and this was the first time I've actually heard them perform/sing - and I wasn't impressed) and it would have been fun to see some of the past years routine instead of that montage. But overall, a really good show that actually kept me interested! /UPDATE

I haven't written anything about this years So You Think You Can Dance for one simple reason - I didn't connect with any of the dancers. There really wasn't anything about any of the top 20 that made me go "wow. that was amazing!" There were a lot of Wow moments, and, really, most of the top ten were really, really good. But I didn't connect with any of them the way I connected with others in the past couple of years.

Yet it was probably the best group they've had... 'technically.'

So as for who will win this year, I can say I have no idea. I'll be routing for either Katie or Joshua. Those two had great chemistry. Twitch was good, too. The other girl (Courtney, I think) was fine. But I never considered her top 4.

Sad, really, when the whole competition for me is boiled down to a few paragraphs.

The Jonas Brothers were really good. I enjoyed watching the show this year. It is kind of hard to make these type sof predictions.

It was hard to predict this year (and last) since there weren't any real stand-outs. They were all good, but nothing that screamed "vote for me!" Like Sabra (sp?) last year. The year before they had Benji and Travis which made for a tough showdown.

And I still don't get what's so special about the Jonas Brothers. (Or Miley Cyrus, either.) I guess I'm just too old to care about them.
