That was pretty cool. I love Sabra. I can stand Neil.

Amazing choreography! Wow. One of my favorite dances of the season. I have to say, though, I did notice some flaws in Sabra's technique there, a little wobbly on some of the turns. The feckless hunchback turned it out. My goodness.
ETA: Gah! Frikkin' Lauren. Why would she pick this week to actually show some of the talent that the judges have been insisting that she's had all along? I still want her to go home and take her smug, annoying personality with her. But that was a good solo. And not even good for her, just good. That last double (triple?) pirouette was gorgeous and she showed amazing control. Rassenfrassinrabblerebble.
I have to rate it thus far:
Neil/Sabra
Danny/Lauren
Pasha/Lacey
Neil/Sabra had better choreography but Danny/Lauren had stronger technique.

He's used to a partner, so he needs something to relate to.

Oh, Sabra and Neil were terrific. The dancing was incredible, great moves, really good choreography.

Beautiful. Pasha is an amazing partner. Lacey had a little bit of the over-exaggerated wanna-be ballet hand working (I hate when I agree with Nigel!) but other than that it was gorgeous.

I like Mary's breakdown of the waltz. How hard the steps are, but how smooth it looked and how well the emotion came across. I loves me really good ballroom.

That was lovely. Lacey has been really reigned in on her mugging by both choreographers. Bravo!

Neil actually showing a little bit of musicality in his solo. Wow. They are all bringing it tonight.
That said, he still has terrible posture (hunchback in full effect!) and the transitions and connections in the dance, while better than what he's usually serving, weren't up to the level that either Sabra or Lauren (dammit!) showed tonight.
Danny in Saturday Night Fever suit! I love it!
