BBC Cancels Simon Cowell’s ‘The Greatest Dancer’ After Two Seasons
The BBC has canceled Simon Cowell’s dance format “The Greatest Dancer,” produced by Syco and Fremantle, after two seasons on air.
“The Greatest Dancer” sees previously undiscovered dance acts perform live weekly for dance captains Cheryl Tweedy, Oti Mabuse, “Glee’s” Matthew Morrison and Todrick Hall and a studio audience in a competition to win £50,000 ($62,000) and a chance to perform on “Strictly Come Dancing.” The series was hosted by Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo,
