It's a mother fuckin' dance off! Where were you when we needed you Daniel?

That whole dance for your life . . . again thing was just weird. In fact, the more I'm thinking about them not kicking anyone off, the saltier I'm getting. And of course, it's bullshit that they've never done it before. It happened the week that Billy got sick and they decided not to cut either Billy or Jose and I hated it then and I hate it now, although at least that time they did cut someone.

I don't care if you gotta cry and cut, judges, but cry and cut. Where were you when we needed you, Zulema?

Nick is a pale ass white boy.

Hee! And yes, he is definitely a white boy.

Despite their best efforts to continue to toss Ryan in my face, she made no impression on me.

I know! It was really sad how they keep on featuring her, and she's just blah.

The choreo looked like Sonya doing a bad Wade impression. And lookee there. It was Sonya doing a bad Wade impression

I was convinced it was a Wade number just from the moves that she used, but I really thought it was a sub-standard one from him. When Cat said it was Sonya, I was really surprised.

OK, in the solos - all the girls seemed to do a "shake what your mama gave you" move. Are they trying to appeal to Nigel to stay on? for some of them it looked like it was just thrown in to appeal to anyone who's watching for the pretty girls.

I'm over Jordan for the fringed boob.

I'm with you. She's an amazing dancer, and it was a cheap trick.

I don't care if you gotta cry and cut, judges, but cry and cut. Where were you when we needed you, Zulema?

I have so much love for this statement, you don't even KNOW.

I'm glad that Mitchell didn't get cut, but I do wish they'd made cuts, speaking of cheap tricks.

I saw who is in the 3rd chair for judging next week - is that a spoiler?

I don't care if you gotta cry and cut, judges, but cry and cut.

Seriously.

I mean, way to discourage interest in your weekly results episode, SYTYCD.

Aren't the results live, too? Aside from the entirely bizarre way Nigel pronounced "saxophonist", Clarence Clemons had the stroke and was admitted to the hospital days ago, not yesterday, so that was just ... wrong.

Yes, he made it sound like it had just happened.

I don't have anything to add that hasn't been said, but:

- I will now only say saxophonist like Nigel did.
- I also think it's funny that Sasha and Alexander are together, name-wise.
- I wish they had just booted Robert, and was I hearing Nigel whispering, "He's not dancing" over the second solo, or am I crazy?
- I will also make heart hands at you people.

But really: Good LORD. Since I got home from work, I've watched two hours of The Voice, three of SYTYCD, and one of Top Chef. It was grueling! And actually only took like four hours, so maybe it was a good strategy anyway...
