Enough ‘Idol’ worship, it’s time to ‘Dance’
Less than 24 hours after the “American Idol” finale, Fox brought out the series it hopes can again satisfy its fans throughout the summer.
“So You Think You Can Dance,” which began its third season on Thursday, tries to evoke the aura of its popular cousin. That means it has its own cranky British judge, Nigel Lythgoe, who is a little less mean than “Idol” counterpart Simon Cowell but can be excused for that because as president of 19 Television, Lythgoe is also Cowell’s boss.
