Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Heh, I've been up since 4am. I can't tell you how many tries it took me to spell "threw" right.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I believe the kids choose their own wardrobe for their solos, so sadly we can not blame the wardrobe 'hos for the underwear as dancewear trend this season. Only for the hideous costumes they wear during the choreographed pieces.

Melanie is just a wonder - 10 across the board. That's why she got the special Mitchell shout out last week along with Ricky. She never does anything halfway. She and Marko throw themselves into everything, which is what stands them head and shoulders above the other dancers on the show. I mean, yes, they both have gorgeous technique, but so do a lot of other kids who are already gone and long forgotten. When you have that much conviction and commitment in your dancing . . . that you are willing to fling yourself recklessly into the air trusting your partner to catch you, that you get so deep in your dance moment that you wind up crying after every performance? That's when you go beyond technique and just become a dancer. I don't know. Love those two kids oodles and oodles. I think I like them even more apart than I did together. Blasphemy!

And the Hunchback turned it out last night. Respect.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I gasped out loud and said HOLY SHIT at that Melanie leap.

I also loved Gaga talking shit about the choreo and everything else that wasn't about dancing, because why not?

Marko also cries when he's safe every week, which I also find endearing.

Also also, I loved so many of the songs they used this week! I forgot about "Take a Bow"!

Because books.

I wasn't too pleased with the "Total Eclipse" earworm, though.

Loved Melanie's expression watching LXD. Some of those guys are really very floaty. How do they do it?

Well, that was surprising.
