SYTYCD Season 11 Finale

Well, my friends, it is truly the end of summer now that So You Think You Can Dance is coming to a close. The real question is - will it be renewed for another season? It would really be nice to know ahead of time so we could have a sort of retrospective of the best dances ever, wouldn't it? Alas. Anyhow, tonight is not about that, tonight is about Ricky, Jessica, Zack and Valerie, the final four of season 11. As you know, before we find out the results, we get treated to some of the best dances from the season along with some new ones to join the mix.

So let's get on with it! On the judging panel is Tara Lipinski, Adam Shankman, Jenna Dewan Tatum, Debbie Allen, along with Mary and Nigel of course. So let's see their favorites and the final four's favorites as well (all are clickable to view)...

Mary Murphy - Jessica & Casey - Travis Wall contemporary

Debbie Allen - Ricky & Valerie - Pharside and Phoenix hip hop

Zack Everheart - Zack & All-Star Amy - Sony Tayeh contemporary

Nigel Lythgoe - Rudy & All-Star Allison - Ray Leeper jazz

Valerie Rockey - Valerie & Zack - Anthony Morigerato tap

Ricky Ubeda - Ricky & Jessica - Sonya Tayeh contemporary

America's Twitter Choice - Carly & Serge - Luther Brown hip hop (it's the one I voted for!)

Jenna Dewan Tatum - Tanisha & Rudy - Sonya Tayeh jazz

Adam Shankman - Zack & Ricky - Pharside and Phoenix hip hop

Tara Lipinski - Emilio and All-Star Jasmine - NapTab hip hop

Jessica Richens - Jessica & All-Star Robert - Travis Wall contemporary

Cat Deeley - Ricky & Valerie - Travis Wall contemporary

Throughout the show, the results were given. Zack was in fourth place, Jessica in third... which leaves it down to the duo of Ricky and Valerie.

And the winner is....

 RICKY!

To me it was a bit of a foregone conclusion this season, but that's not to say he isn't deserving. Yay Ricky! And congrats to Valerie for making it as far as she did, because I didn't really see that happening, I must say.

Well, here we are at the end of the line. Are you happy with Ricky's victory, or were you hoping someone else would win? Let me know in the comments!
