Some dance moves are very sexual in nature (Latin ballroom) but it is just dance and it's amazing to see how far people can come with perseverance and dedication. My kids enjoy watching it but I don't let them watch it until after the final 20 are selected.
My girls and I love this show (8 yo. & 11 yo.) we have watched it for years. My only concern is sometimes the outfits are pretty revealing and occasionally the dances can have a sexual tone to them. Other than that I think it is great and fun for the whole family!
A good one for Kids, gives them a good foundation.
I'm yet to get married but I thought show like this one would give a very exposure of the Dancing to the kids. Many kids could catch the spirit of Dancing from the tender age and who knows your kid may thread the path towards a Super Star Dancer in the making.
But I thing is very clear to me. As a researcher I do strongly feel (in fact, observed them in many countries) that present generation kids do need to be more pro-active into such very useful activities which obviously meant that less time on TV and Video games would be much better to them in many ways.
Good luck kids!
I love this show even more then idol. Its a really good shoe to watch and pretty kid friendly. If you want a shoow thats good and everyone will enjoy, then this should do you good.
We enjoy watching how these dancers improve their talent. It is nice to be able to watch a tv show and not worry about inappropriate content. My kids love to root for their favorite dancer to win the contest.
As a dancer, this show is very inspiring for me. The top 20 are incredible!! My suggestion in watching the show is TeeVo the auditions for a couple laughs (no commercials!), SKIP Las Vegas week, and watch the top 20 on up. I say skip Las Vegas week because that's where social behavior gets iffy. Many dancers get bad attitudes, swear at the camera (it's bleeped out), and yell at each other. Otherwise, the top 20 and eliminations up get incredible choreography (two numbers last year made me cry!), amazing group performances, and you get to vote for your favorite!
