America's favorite summer series, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, has kept viewers amazed and inspired as talented dancers skilled in everything from Hip Hop, Krumping and Popping to Salsa, Quickstep and Jive compete to be named America's Favorite Dancer.

Hosted by Cat Deeley, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE traveled across the country, in search of dancers who represent the best in America. Those who shine during auditions are given a ticket to Los Angeles for callbacks, where they work with top choreographers to learn and then be judged on multiple styles of dance.
