The CW Thinks It Can Dance with Mia Michaels

...or at least it hopes it can. In what I can only attribute to the rising popularity of the summer smash So You Think You Can Dance, The CW has ordered a pilot about what? You guessed it, DANCING! My favorite judge is even involved... MIA MICHAELS! Read about it below (courtesy of Zap2it).

Marta Kauffman is taking a turn with the CW around the pilot dance floor.The writer-producer and Warner Bros. TV will create a one-hour pilot for the fledling network tentatively titled "Steps," a "comedrama" or "dancedy" about a family-run dance studio, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"It's really about dancers," says Kauffman. "They're desperate to find grace and beauty in an otherwise ugly world. They are very special people."Kauffman will write and executive produce the project, which is in talks with choreographer Mia Michaels to act as a consultant.

Kauffman is learned about the world of dance from her mother, who earned money as a nightclub dancer during the Depression and then later opend a dance studio.
