SYTYCD Season 7 Changes – Official
Hi y’all! From the official press release I received today (the bold is me):
America’s favorite summer series, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, returns for its seventh season with some exciting new twists, including 10 finalists competing, only one dancer eliminated per week and the return of dancers from previous seasons.
This year, the competition is the toughest it has ever been as the judges will pick only 10 dancers (five guys and five girls) – from the thousands that auditioned – to compete for the title of America ’s Favorite Dancer. During the performance rounds, one finalist will go home weekly. Additionally, the competitors will be partnered each week with a different SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE All-Star dancer – former SYTYCD finalists who are skilled in various styles of dance, including ballroom, hip-hop, jazz and contemporary. The All-Star Partners will be announced shortly.
Be sure to tune in to the two-hour Season Seven premiere Thursday, May 27 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
Oooookay, I’m in!! The All-Star previous season’s dancers did it for me! WHO do you want to be a Season 7 All-Star? What do y’all think?
Our commenter Kenna totally called it, just so you know how awesome y’all are:

oh my gosh, wouldn’t it be great, and i have no evidence for this its just wishful thinking, but they picked. 10 dancers and then, their partners every week were old favorites. like. Mark, Twitch, Kherington, etc.
i would LOVE that. but again. just wishful thinking. haha
This is really interesting. I LOVE the idea of past dancers coming back and not only being back on the show as choreographers, but also dancing on the show.
Of course, the big question I have is if those dancers are going to also be the choreographers or if they’re going to come back and dance and we’re going to still have the choreographers still on the show to work with the all stars and the new stars.
Point being that it would be an absolute travesty to lose the choreographers from the show. They should just be able to take the choreography to the next level.
From your lips to Nigel’s ears, apparently. Great guess, Kenna! I’m loooooving the changes now! This is going to be an awesome season. I still love the idea of combining the US, UK and AU versions somehow, but I’m looking forward to Season 7 even more than I was before.

I would think the 6 past winners will be included as All Stars after all that would be a fair thing to do and then maybe we will find out where Sabra disappeared too.
Is it weird that I squeaked when i read my name in the post? I’ve been reading puresytycd for so long and just now began posting. haha. 😀
and @Amanda, I’ve been wondering where sabra went off to as well. She was so amazing.
Oh. and nigel posted on his twitter that Twitch is going to be an All-star, as well he should be. 😀
@Kenna: As a long-time reader of PureSYTYCD, too, one of the things I like most about writing for the site is celebrating our smart and funny and intuitive our readers are. You were RIGHT on the money, there. 🙂 I’m glad you squeaked when you read your name and I hope you keep posting, cause I’d love to hear more of your thoughts and insights.
@both: I’m dying to know what happened to Sabra, too! She’d be my one exception to the self-imposed “no winners” limitation. She was the winner of the first season I watched and really helped get me hooked.
