So You Think You Can Dance apparently doesn't think it can safely bust a move this summer. TV Guide has confirmed that Season 17 of the dance competition series has been shelved amid COVID-19 concerns.While casting for Season 17 began in March, many productions in Los Angeles were shut down due to the spread of coronavirus.
Production was cleared to resume earlier this month but with many guilds still working out safety protocols, no final decision had been made about whether the show would go on.
Now, Fox has made the decision to shelve 2020 installation of the series."Production on season 17 of So You Think You Can Dance will not be moving forward due to health and governmental restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic," Fox said.
