Wow, I really thought Dom did a great job. He covered very well for the fall. I think I am going to like this twist, even though I don't like the routine itself.

LOVED Tyce's Ailey moment. Beautiful. This top ten is sooo talented.

Really hated that dance. The choreography, that is. And Sabra outdanced Kameron, totally.

So I am really loving the different takes on the solo choreo. (Still hating the actual choreo, though) Pasha is my least favorite so far (hands like claws - gah). Again, blown away with the talent level of this season's cast. I think overall they're much better than S2 and somewhat better than S1. I can imagine lots of folks in 11-20 who would've torn that routine up. (Whither Chuy?)

Love the samba. Although Lacey is pulling faces when she should be looking sexy. Between Benji's choreography and Dimitri's I like this much better.

Okay, this is the problem. I'm getting bored of watching the solo routine. By the time we're done with all 10, I'm not going to remember a single one of them.

This solo has been nagging at me, and I finally realized what it reminds me of -- an ice skating routine by some guy at the Olympics maybe. It was done to a James Bond song and the skater was Bond and it was very literal -- the skater mimed boxing, he mimed throwing a grenade, and the grenade going off, and a few other things. The hand moves to make the world and change remind me of that.

What was with the smirk-y smirk Lauren had through that whole dance? I don't buy Wade's crap story, but I don't think it's about happy fun times. Ugh. Her technique was ok, I guess, but she just annoys to no end and she never really gets what the dance is about.

Also, Danny is ridiculously hot. Can't be said enough.
