The ballroom thing is just weird, especially when you consider that the ballroom alums have had some of the greatest post-show success. Practically half the cast of Dancing with the Stars got their starts on SYTYCD - Lacey, Dmitry, Chelsea, Peanut has choreographed for them (not to mention the fact that Louis has done choreo for SYTYCD). Pasha and Anya made a huge splash in Burn the Floor. You see the former ballroom kids out and about doing well much more frequently than most of the winners, truth be told.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

I really like that it feels like they paid attention to what did and didn't work last year. Granted, announcing a top 20 takes longer than 10 (or 11?) did, but I'm so glad they aren't doing the stupid travelogue of telling everyone at home, and instead are doing a crapload of dancing! Fun.

And possibly my final notes: What is up with Sonia's look? And are 9 of the girls contemporary?

What Jesse said: like all the comments.
Can I add? Antin need to fucking go. I never ever want to see that woman on my screen again. Who can arrange this? Do I need to call ita or something? WTF. What.a.waste.of.space.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Perhaps she's going to recruit some of the "hot" girls who didn't make the top 20 for her group (I refuse to use their name).

Now I'm terrified that "burlesque" will be a "style" in the hat.
