When it comes to this season’s judges, there are definitely some new faces. The judges’ panel includes Nigel Lythgoe, Mary Murphy, Laurieann Gibson, and Dominic “D-Trix” Sandoval. Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy are the returning judges in the mix. Sandoval, according to Good Housekeeping, is a YouTube personality who people may recognize from season 3 of So You Think You Can Dance and from being a two-time winner of America’s Best Dance Crew. And, when the new season of SYTYCD was announced, Sandoval took to Instagram to say, “Before 2005, a dream for a dancer was to make a living by dancing for an artist, dance for someone’s music video, or maybe dance in a commercial. And although those are all awesome things, it wasn’t till So You Think You Can Dance, where you were finally able to make a living dancing for yourself.”

Longtime host Cat Deeley has returned to the show, once again, and she recently told Gold Derby in an interview, “My biggest win of all is getting to host a show I love. That’s all I care about. I do stupid things but I think the audience likes it. It’s that thing I love about live TV, that anything can happen.”

The first episodes of the show are the auditions, on which dancers ranging in ages from 18 to 30. The audition shows will run an hour long and then the live shows will air for two hours each, according to Dance Network TV. There will be three rounds of auditions. When it comes to the live shows, there will be six of these episodes. Eliminations will start week 2 of the live shows and two contestants (one man and one woman) will be eliminated each week until the show gets narrowed down to the top 4.

SYTYCD 2019 will air each week on Monday nights at 9 p.m. ET on the Fox network. This new season was announced in January 2019.
