We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

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.

Thrive to spite 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.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm voting for my favorites no matter what. I was getting really bored with the solos until Sabra. There is something about this little girl that is bigger than anyone else.

Someone please introduce Neil to the concept of musicality. Good grief. So far, I've liked Jamie and then Dom the best. Sabra was a little frantic for me, but good. Still liking the multiple takes on the solo.
