Holy tent poles!! Did you see the finale of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’?
Can those guys be any more impressive? Seriously, I was blown for a six every show I was able to see, and tonight was phenomonal.
Jack deserved the prize I reckon, his personality and his talent were beyond reasonable, and Kate and Rhys were just insanely brilliant.
The show was so able to take you on a journey, for me not so much as following the characters, but being taken away with each routine. Henry, Graeme, Rhys and Jack did that every time I watched.
Now that is real TV with Real Talent… I am so envious of what they are able to do. My envy comes from truly appreciating dance after being exposed to it but finding I had some major limitations.
Using your body to express emotion and stir feelings in people, in my opinion, is the greatest of art forms.
Speaking of bodies, another show I love to watch is The Biggest Loser, again not so much for the characters and the coniving, but the fact that they are creating new bodies for themselves…. and thus new lives. I mean, the before and after shots are so incredibly profound. Again I see the art in the training, helping the contestants carve out new figures.
And then tomorrow night the show that allowed me to use the only art I have to be shared with the world, Big Brother, begins… And boy I can’t wait…especially as it really does look like a different show.
How about you? What’s doing it and not doing it for you on the small screen?
