During tonight’s live season finale, judge and co-creator Nigel Lythgoe announced that So You Think You Can Dance has been renewed for an 11th season which will air next summer. He noted that he’d received the good news from FOX just five minutes before going on the air.
Tonight’s live episode is being split into two parts — airing from 8-9pm and then from 9:30-10pm — due to the President’s address.
The program has been airing just once a week this season and has continued to slide in the ratings. Last summer averaged a 2.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.47 million total viewers. To date, this season’s been averaging a 1.6 rating with 4.47 million.
FOX hasn’t made an official announcement yet but one is expected to be be forthcoming. It’s also expected that the series will continue to air just once a week.
What do you think? Are you a fan of the series? Do you prefer one or two episodes a week?

I HAVE WATCHED EVERY SEASON. BEST SHOW ON TV. YOU GET
TO SEE THE DANCERS EVOLVE.
Can hardly wait for the new season to begin! To me, this is definitely a 5 star show!
I love the show and I had several girlfriends coming over to my house to watch…We (all six of us) would love to see it 2 times a week. It seems that just as it gets interesting they change the day or time and we have to hunt for it…Please bring it back for all of us that LOVE to dance and watch new talent.
Dumbest show ever made.
This is what television should be. It’s incredibly inspiring, joyful. I’d love it twice a week every week.
LOVE this show ! everything about it ! the dancers , the choreographers , the choreography , the music , the judges !
This is a wonderful show with a great opportunity to advocate for Dance as a brilliant art form as well as for young, hard working dancers to showcase their talent. Nigel obviously loves dance and knows a great deal about it. This quality program is very accessible to large numbers of people who may not ordinarily go to the theater to see Damce. I would love to see it twice per week and look very forward to it each season.
My favorite television show ever and look forward to it every season. Love the Judges and the excellent dancing. I would much prefer to have the show on 2 nights a week as one night is not enough and made the season go by too fast.
We’re senior citizens, as well, and LOVE SYTYCD! It should go back to twice a week though. But I don’t think using past dancers as judges is very fair, or using “celebrities” who don’t have a clue about dancing.
And go back to the original 20 dancers like in the beginning. Can’t wait for this to start up again!
love the show; quality of dancing; judging is excellent and interesting. Twice a week would be my choice.
Twice a week, please. Can’t get enough watching amazing talented young people.
I would like to see it go back to two nights a week. I think that the show seemed very rushed. I have been watching since season 1 and I think that trying to pack everything into one evening was just too much. I know that TV time costs the earth, but on the other hand if you still want people to watch the show, I think the two night format was a better fit.
Twice a week!
