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).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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."

"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)

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm back to working evenings so I missed the show this week. What is the site that has the videos again? I may have to keep up that way.

I really liked the top 10 men dance - and all of them seemed to be mostly LEG.

I wish that they had done the girls before the boys. I liked the girls' number, but the boys' number was A. MA. ZING. After they were finished, I knew that the other number would pale in comparison. It was fab, but the boys blew them away.

I was surprisingly happy with the top 20 number, I usually hate Tasty's choreo.

I wish that the professor had made it, I think that Robert's age was the deciding factor.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I wish that the professor had made it, I think that Robert's age was the deciding factor.

I think so too, on both parts. The professor was the only person I was sad didn't make it, at least of the top 31. I hope he tries again; I think the fact that the judges were using his "indubitably" last night is a sign that they thought really well of him.
