Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

OMG. you are right to be terrified. that possibility NEVER occurred to me until now.

oh dear.

"Burlesque" might be ... interesting? but the "wriggle provocatively while wearing minimal clothing" isn't really a style, is it?

Good burlesque is more than that, but unfortunately, there is a LOT of bad burlesque out there (for which Robin Antin shoulders a lot of blame)
