Caitlyn. So boring. Dancing to Celine Dion. Make it stop.

Because books.

Oh, right. Why *does* everyone hate Ryan? I still don't get it.

I thought that last routine was incredible. The lifts and the leaps looked light as air. Really gorgeous, even if Celine is never a good choice for music.

Ryan smiles inappropriately, Amy.

Nigel says they were "so together" but I still saw several things where I felt like Ryan was off.

YES. this. She fell out of her fucking spin. How the fuck do you do that?

I liked the top 7 girls - they were much more together than the boys. I can always find Melanie, no matter how much they put Ryan right in front of the camera.

Of the couples routines, there wasn't a lot to love. I liked Clarice and Jess best, and never expected that!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"This zombie Zoolander routine actually suited you both very well."

That was hilarious. And also true.

I am sad to say that I actually liked the Ryan number, although I still hate her. Her moves were crisper and more focused than his (when she wasn't falling, that is).

Not a fan of the Ashley/Chris number, they'll be in the bottom.

Hated the last routine, Celine Dion ruins everything. maybe I should watch it with the sound off.

Didn't hate the jess number, although I still hate him.

I liked Clarice and Jess best, and never expected that!

Me too (ok, not best, but I liked them), and I seriously dislike Jess. I think what made this number not make me want to stab my eyes out was that there were no lifts.

I also liked the Ricky/Ryan number more than I expected. Which isn't saying I loved it.

Celeste, Sasha and Ashley need new partners. In my world, one of them could partner with Ricky, since I want Ryan gone. Eh, just dump Ryan and Jess and jumble up the rest.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ryan smiles inappropriately, has no personality, and is being inexplicably protected by the judges to the detriment of better dancers.
