I watched that marathon, too. The loss of Paula was a tragedy. She's fierce. I was amazed how many routines I really quite liked. I was also amazed by how much FP really did grow on me. Around about her Mandy Moore Relax routine with Jakob, she started consistently putting in solid performances. I still wish that she hadn't been on the show and I definitely still think it's bunk that she made the finale, but she was not nearly as bad as I thought she'd be.
And I should clarify that I am only OK with the minimal judgery for tonight's finale because the permanent three judge panel with no guest judges has worked about as well as Judge #4 on AI. The rest of the finale is whack. The same sex numbers (especially the boys numbers) have consistently been some of the high points on the finale. Two Princes. Message in a Bottle. The geek hop with Travis and Benji. Bah. I do not like it.
I like the Jeanine and Kayla number, with them striving to get across the stage and divesting themselves of layers of skirts.
Yep. I loved that one, too. And Jeanine and Kayla tore that number up. Boo on the lack of same gender routines. I don't think we've had any since the Sonya Jazz in the first episode of the season. Remember 5 Guys Named Moe? Good Times. Good Times.
YAY for the first dance that was amazing. Especially the end!
Too bad this is the finale, we really needed more shirtless Ryan on the show. Unf.
Really liked the Russell and FP piece. At least, loved Russell and FP didn't make me hate her.
I loved the Ryan and Ellanore piece! and it was interesting and different and also Ryan looked like he was trying to look vacant and Ellanore just was vacant.
Okay over all the show seems rushed. Kathryn and Jakob were amazing!!
So - I don't know exactly what Gordon Ramsey's new cooking show on Fox is all about (it says he's cooking a three course meal and encouraging folks at home to do the same or something), but Allyson Hannigan is one of the guests tonight.
OMFG! I almost don't care who wins! They are all really bringing it tonight!
As long as Ashleigh & Ryan DON'T win, I mean.
