Joshua Allen Wins SYTYCD Season 4 8/07/08

After the Confetti Cleared Joshua Allen
Wins the Dance Competition
FOX Thursday 8/7c 8/07/08

After all the fanfare and dancing ended for Season 4 of So You Think You Can Dance there was one young man left standing, Joshua Allen. The nineteen year old untrained Hip Hop dancer from Ft. Worth, Texas. Never before had a street dancer found themselves in the final two. This time both the finalist were from the street. Stephen 'Twitch' Boss has nothing to be sad about, finishing what had to be a close second.

Both the ladies of the final four were let go early, with Courtney leaving first. Really not a big surprise. She is fantastic, but the competition was too great. Katee was let go a short while later with a bonus, this year's top female and top male win a $50,000 prize. She finally showed raw emotion that was not choreographed. That's a lot of money to a dancer. I think that was Katee's only downfall, her lack of enthusiasm off the dance floor.

When it came down to Stephen 'Twitch' Boss and Joshua Allen, it didn't really matter anymore. Both men have their loyal followers and they co-mingle peacefully. Joshua just seems able to take every single jump, step or hand gesture one step further every time.

Filling in the rest of the two hour finale we were treated to an encore performance of the judges and choreographers' favorite routines of the season. This show differs from shows like American Idol, in that the judges prove they know what they are talking about. Mary Murphy gave a Latin dance that I could have never seen and been happy. Nigel Lythgoe tied on tap shoes and showed he could still tap with the best... well, he can still tap. He's such a ham, it was funny though... Read full article!
