Changes for So You Think You Can Dance

SYTYCDToday I'm thinking about the return of "So You Think You Can Dance". If you haven't heard there are going to be some changes this year. 

The judges will only pick 10 dancers, 5 guys and 5 girls. One dancer will be eliminated per week. Instead of the contestants being partnered with each other the way they had been in past seasons they will be partnered with "All Star" dancers from previous seasons. 

The "All Stars" have been announced: Stephen "Twitch" Boss, Comfort Fedoke, Courtney Galiano, Anya Garnis, Lauren Gottlieb, Neil Haskell, Allison Holker, Mark Kanemura, Pasha Kovalev, Kathryn McCormick, Ade Obayomi and Dominic "D-Trix" Sandoval.

Why the changes? Creator and judge, Nigel Lythoge says, “Boredom on my part. After two seasons back-to-back, I wanted something to refresh us. The minute you know what everyone is going to say, why bother watching?”

"So You Think You Can Dance" 2hr premiere 5/27 on Fox.
