I liked the number, I was afraid I wouldn't, but I did.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

OK, I liked some of that, but some of it was just ehn for me. I thought Sabra didn't do as good a job as I expect of her. I did think Danny outshone Neil, even in the flashy acrobatics bits, which is the one thing I expect Neil to do well. He somehow looked more fluid and lithe than Neil. Love him.
I may have to vote for the very first time ever...so tempting. (Should've voted for Travis last year!)

You know, I just don't feel like Lacey belongs there. Unfortunately, this is for America's "favorite" dancer, so we get stuck with her. Damn, I wish either Sara or Anya were in her place.

I miss Sara. Lacey bugs.

I thought "Mein Herr" was cute, which is exactly why I didn't like it. Cabaret is a lot of things. Cute is not one of them. However, I did think they danced it well. And I agree with meara that Danny turned it out on Neil. When they both did those Russians? The aerial back walkovers? His were better. The hunchback blew it by falling out of that first pirouette. Really? Here's your moment, just you and the rest of the top 4 on chairs in the background and . . . Jimmy's down! Sigh.
Also, why is Nigel hating on Lacey? Was she the only one that got criticism there? I'm not a huge Lacey fan, but ew.

Thrive to spite them
That was a pretty decent solo in a god awful outfit.

What the HELL is Lacey wearing?? That's just weird. Very weird.
Also, she may be a very good dancer, but she's never managed to bring it, for me, in her solos. Not sure what the issue is--her brother managed, Pasha seemed to have figured it out by the end there...but hers are just....boring.

The costume . . . oh good grief! The gloves, the legwarmers, the peekaboo black bra. My eyes! My eyes!
The weave looks much better at least.
I was bored by her solo, but then, I've been bored by her solos every single time.

That hip-hop did nothing for me.

That routine just left me cold. Both Sabra and Neil looked stiff to me and there was no heat there at all.
