I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Oh lord this Gordon Ramsey thing is painful. Allyson is still adorable, but no, just no. Thank heavens it looks like a one-off (hopefully a failed pilot like Bourdain's horrific dinner with friends show that he apologized for).

I was pretty disappointed by both Ellenore and Russell tonight. Not so much their dancing, but their lack of connection. And Russell was not well served by his choreographers.

Ashleigh and Ryan did well, but Jakob and Kathryn in their routine together showed they are in a separate league.

I want Kathryn to win, but I'd be happy with anyone but Ashleigh and Ryan.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I can't choose. Russell, Jakob, Ellenore, Kathryn. Totally the best top 4 ever. And the fact that we didn't get a top 2 boys dance and a top 2 girls dance out of that quartet is criminal. And damn if Travis Wall didn't make me love the DiLellos for that one minute and 30 seconds in time. I will watch that again. Still, the other four are so far ahead of those two.

I really can't choose. If I must, I've gotta go with Jakob because he is divine. Just born to dance. But I would be happy with a win from any of those four.

I am made of stone. That Ryan-Ashleigh dance did nothing for me.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I've gone back through the SYTYCD eps that are cluttering up my dvr queue and counted out the individual numbers I'm planning on ripping onto disc after tomorrow's finale, and so far, between the pairs, solos, group, and guest numbers, I'm up to 35. Here's hoping I don't get too many more tomorrow, otherwise I won't be able to fit them onto the 120 minute disc!
