Two of my all time favorites! That little high talker is just magical.

Heads up, SYTYCD 12 premieres tonight! Not sure about the new concept, but it's on. (How do I know this? Alex Wong's twitter, is how.)

Because books.

I was just coming to report that, flea! I can't not watch.

Okay, the audition show is worth watching for the faces Jason Derulo makes when confronted by the likes of Courtney Barnes.

In general, alas, he and Paula are useless.

I missed the first hour but am watching now (and the rest I'll watch when I'm home). That said I'm not super impressed yet.

I watched it last night, but no note taking. I gotta watch it again. First impressions are that the new format is just as problematic as I had feared. So, the "street" team is going to be almost all male and all black except for a white boy who gets to be a smart "nerd" who will stand up to all that street aggressiveness and a white girl doing dance team hip pop likely because her technique was not strong enough to make it onto the "stage" team? Mmmkay. My side eye is at the ready.

Also, Jason and Paula are useless and less than useless. Miss Debbie Allen is sitting in the corner somewhere sipping her tea.

All that said, I'll STILL watch because dancers. Dancers, man! I heart dancers. No lights? Who cares. Let's just go. I spent my whole year's worth of savings on this. Bless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm just starting to watch, but at least they are going to Vegas!

There better be some Miss Debbie Allen, that's all I know!

Just did a quick search - surely I'm not the only one watching Sing It On, am I?
