Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is that the a capella show?

Because books.
msbelle, you reminded me and I just caught the end of it! Sounds like some decent groups in there, but it's going to conflict with SYTYCD for me tomorrow (no DVR).

SYTYCD is conflicting with a Charlie Brown Christmas tonight! We seem to have reached agreement that I will watch SYTYCD and we will Tivo Charlie Brown, since we will probably want to keep that one for multiple watchings.

I thought Sing Off was just okay last night. I'm not sure what I was expecting. The two groups who were sent home I suppose deserved to.

I'm trying to figure out how they're going to do SYTYCD in one hour tonight--will they have the usual one solo each, one group dance, one dance with each gender, and one dance with each person pairing up with the other finalists? That would be 18 dances, which cannot fit into a one-hour slot. Maybe they only have them partnering with one person?

They don't usually do a group dance on the competition show, and they haven't done any one-gender only dances this year (I don't think?). They have to do solos, so that's six, but short. If each once dances with all the opposite sex, that's nine couple dances, which is a lot for an hour. So I'm guessing (unspoiled) that they do 6 couple dances, switching partners - and sticking to new couples, as everyone there has danced with at least one of the partners so far. Which implies Ryan and Ashleigh together.
Tomorrow is a two-hour finale, so they can do a group dance and other combinations then, plenty of time.

I was unimpressed. And the bio reels, my god, the bio reels!

SYTYCD formatting note for tonight: Each girl will dance with each boy once, so we will get 9 partner dances plus each one will do a solo. I don't know how they are going to get it all in. I assume no rehearsal clips and minimal judgery which is fine with me.
I watched The Sing Off last night and enjoyed it in a cheesy way. Nick Lachey needed to go up about three sizes on his suit, Nicole Scherzinger was either drugged out of her mind or is one of the stupidest people on the planet. (The Beetlebubs? Really, Nicole?) Ben Folds is adorable. I don't understand why the Mormon group is still there. Out of all the Boyz II Men you could have on the show, why go with the skinny, big eared one? Passably fun, but I won't be watching tonight because it's SYTYCD finale. Whoop whoop!
