SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE: Nigel Lythgoe on the Format Changes to Season 9 — Including 2 Winners!

With all the rumors and speculation going around about how the heck SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE’s ninth season will work now that Fox has trimmed the show’s airtime to one night a week, judge/executive producer Nigel Lythgoe cleared up how the new season will work during a conference call on Friday.

And when I spoke with HOUSE creator David Shore, he expressed some discomfort over the emphasis that gets placed on how a show closes out its run versus the merits of the series as a whole. (To be fair, when you title the final hour of your series  “Everybody Dies,” expectations are understandably built-in.)

Take a look at what he had to say about the pressures placed on series finales, when he decided how HOUSE was going to end, and more…
