While Ashley and Chris may have been the most visibly upset contestants post-elimination during Thursday night’s SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE show, when it came time for the duo to do their interviews, Ashley started off our chat by saying, “You guys don’t have to be sad. It’s okay!”
With that out of the way, Ashley and Chris explained what was going through their minds when it was announced they were off the show, what they learned from each other and what they hope fans remember about them…

As the weeks go on, the eliminations keep getting harder. The most recently eliminated dancers might not have gotten the best feedback last night, but there’s no denying they had talent.

RAISING HOPE Nabs Greyson Chance For a Guest Arc

Filed under #1 featured, Raising Hope
We’re still a few months away from the second season of RAISING HOPE and this particular piece of casting news is making the wait all the more difficult.
RAISING HOPE creator Greg Garcia tweeted earlier this morning that viral singing star (and THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW fave) Greyson Chance would appear on a few episodes of the show next season. While at least one RH star was surprised by the news, Fox confirmed the news to Give Me My Remote. (It’s kind of adorable that Chance is joining a show with a fictional Chance family, right?)
But how long will he be sticking around for and who will he be playing?

Well, this is some good — and completely unexpected — news: the recently canceled ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE will live on post-ABC Daytime.
After the soaps complete their television run, Prospect Park will continue production of both shows and air the series online. As of now, there is no word on which cast members will be continuing on once the shows make the move to the web, but the companies have reached a multi-year deal.
Check out the official press release from ABC…
