these kids are this good now....they will be unstoppable in a few years. I have my doubts about this season, but look forward to watching these incredibly talented kids.

The same thought crossed my mind. The older dancers featured on this show in past seasons don't seem to be as flexible as these little ones. I agree, these kids will be unstoppable when they mature a bit and can emote as adults.

I just watched a YouTube video of a young girl who will be featured in the NYC auditions next week and she is unbelievable. Her name is Tate McRae.

Well I'm not sure about that being that talented at a young age, can mean they will peak faster than normal. Most professional dancers weren't the best in their class when they were little kids.

For the most part, I've enjoyed watching these talented kids, and I'm looking forward to this season, although I'm not sure how they are going to partner with the adult all-stars. Hopefully the choreographers will figure that out.

On the down side, I can't help feeling disgusted at the way some of the little girls gyrate "provocatively" (for some reason the boys never seem to be that overt). The one little girl in pink who danced to "I am the Best" by 2NE1 was really awful. I know it's not the kids' fault. They are just doing as they're told, but what are the adults thinking? Are they perverts or do they just have no taste? Let kids dance like kids. They'll have plenty of time to explore more mature choreography a few years down the road.
