I, too, was surprised by the end. But only cause I was really really hoping Lauren would go home.

I don't like Pasha, but I did like his solo. And I was suprised at how much Lacey's solo sucked.

At this point, I'm only rooting for Sabra and Danny.

(i never go to the official site. can you tell?)

You're not missing much.

I would love a Danny/Sabra final two. I'd love a Danny/Pasha final two even more. I would not have thought anything could derail the Lacey train to F2, but that weak ass solo tonight may at least have slowed it down. And I actually like Lacey.

I was sorry to see Sara go. I really liked her. I thought her tango was great, that pretzel move was incredible. I didn't love the hip hop routine, but I blame that more on choreography.

I liked the group number, fun and cheesy.

I like Lacey, too, but her solo was just awful. All she did was slide around a bunch of times.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I can't believe that Sara got voted off. Wow. Just kinda stunned.

And with the solos, what on earth was Lacey thinking of. Jeez.

eta: Late, but to clarify, I was speaking of SYTYCD. It's rough having Saras on different shows!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was very surprised Sara didn't go home, actually. I may be misremembering, but I think this is the first time one of the cheftestants very obviously didn't do anything, but didn't get sent home for it (see my previous comments on the dangers of making salad on this show).

She's the only one I can think of (not that that proves anything). I think she and Howie should have gone home, because they were annoying the CRAP out of me. I don't think it's asking too much that a person have an emotional age over THREE before they get to run a professional kitchen.

Has this exit interview been linked? Joey on why Rocco is a douchebag

Dear Reality TV shows - please try to pick contestants with different names. The whole SYTYCD Sara vs. Food Show Sara thing is giving me whiplash.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. I was all, "But Sara did go home! Oh, wait...."
