So You Think You Can Dance Finale!!!

The long journey came to a close tonight on So You Think You Can Dance. The final four dancers, Joshua Allen, Twitch Boss, Courtney Galiano and Katee Shean came back tonight to find out which of them has won the title of America's Favorite Dancer plus a pot of $250,000.

To keep them company and to entertain us all at home for the two-hour broadcast, the rest of the top 20 dancers came back, many of them to reprise some of the judges' favorite routines. (Unfortunately, Jessica King was not in attendance tonight, likely due to her injury.) Along with these encore performances, there were many guest performers as well. This was by far the most entertaining episode of the entire season. I know rationally that it lasted two hours, but I didn't even notice the time going by. It was that entertaining. Read on to see what happened.

Well, here's the important news first. Courtney was eliminated first. Then Katee, but there was a surprise tonight. This year, the producers of So You Think You Can Dance wanted to award the top guy and the top girl, so Katee came away with a second place prize of $50,000. Not too shabby. So it was down to the two hip hop boys, and in the end, Joshua was crowned the fourth winner of So You Think You Can Dance.

So You Think You Can Dance Top 4

I'm so incredibly excited for tonight's Final Four performance show. We've got four incredibly talented dancers who, I am positive, will bring out the big guns tonight and show us their most impressive routines yet.

Who are you pulling for? The nearly flawless Katee who has had a virtually perfect season thus far? Or her long time friend Twitch, possibly the least formally trained dancer of the season, but one who has showed enormous potential? Or how about Josh, he of the cute butt and amazing technical ability? Personally, I'm all for Courtney, the most improved dancer of the top 20.
Cat Deeley, wearing a shiny, shiny gold number and five-inch heels, welcomes the final four dancers out on the stage. She explains that tonight, everybody in the final four will be dancing with everybody else. She welcomes our....joodges! Mandy Moore joins Mary Murphy and Nigel Lythgoe in the judges panel.

The first pair to hit the floor tonight are Courtney Galiano and Twitch Boss, dancing a Tabitha and Napoleon D'Umo hip hop routine. This routine is about a crazy, deranged girlfriend going out to a club to look for her boyfriend. Courtney really takes to this character. They dance to "Church" by T-Pain, which is the perfect song choice for this fast-paced routine. Woah, Twitch spins with Courtney's body balanced on his head. Crazy! Normally, I love Twitch and Courtney, and I love the D'Umos, but I'm left wanting a little bit more. The judges shower them with high praise.
