Before “Dancing with the Stars”, “America’s Best Dance Crew” and “So You Think You Can Dance” there was Astaire-Rogers. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers are among the most successful and well-known dancers in American history. Together, this dancing and acting duo made ten films. To this day, "Fred and Ginger" remains an almost automatic reference for any successful dance partnership. Many classical dancers and choreographers acknowledge their importance and influence on dance today. Now, you can see what they were all about – Comcast has ten films featuring Astaire and Rogers available now including, Shall We Dance, Swing Time and Top Hat. So check out the pair that has inspired the dance craze of today On Demand in the “Movies & Events” folder under “Movie Collections.”

To all those who are fans of SYTYCD and all those behind the seens, to the judges and of course to the dancers.
In Glendale, Az. I was priviliged to meet the dancers of SYTYCD season 4 when they were all signing autographs. I must tell you that each and everyone of them is a class act. They work hard pushing their bodies to the limit. Their skill is what we admire them for but they should be admired for their down to earth personalities and their class. They actually take the time to sign for every fan and talk to them taking pictures with them. Gev and Twitch stood out among the guys as Jessica and Katee stood out among the girls. Katee actually went into the fan area beyond her security to talk with and sign for an elderly handicapped woman in a wheel chair....that was awesome of her. Jessica spoke of her injury and of the personal time the dancers had on the bus. (and yes it would be worth it to be a fly on the wall on that bus) Will takes to heart the fanfare and confesses his love (so whom ever you are you need not worry about his heart)Will does love all the girls attention and picture taking...Chelsea Hightower is a big flirt ad a little hottie I wouldnt mind getting...
