Passion and SYTYCD
Ok, so this is going to be a two parter: first, go and read this article in Salon, which talks about passion (one of my top three words) and the way that the passion of the dancers is infectious, even for sour old curmudgeons like myself. Plus, it’s cleverly written:
"Because when you know, deep down inside, that you’re just as passionate as the next person, only then can you appreciate passion in others. Then, when people make deeply irritating statements like "I live for my art," or "Having children made me fully human — before that I was more like some species of primitive, prehistoric amphibian," you won’t want to smash their faces in (although, I’ll admit, that is a very passionate response)."
We’ll come back later and discuss this idea of passion, and how shows like Top Chef and SYTYCD are putting it back into our time…
