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

Why are some of the dances longer than others? That doesn't seem fair.

My stream is so crappy I can't see the dancing. Literally, Sasha was up in the air, then lying on the floor, and so on.

I would assume, as for the paired dances, it is up to the choreographer. I've studied choreography, and let me assure you that it is difficult to choreograph to a very specific alloted time. But I suppose, since I don't work for SYTYCD, I have no idea.

Also, ballroom is the dance I have the least experience in and the least desire to learn, but, uh, I would dance with Pasha any day of the week.

I might be broken - Pasha does nothing for me. Dmitri, on the other hand...

I've missed almost all of the dancing tonight; first, kids, and then a bad stream. So frustrating.

Is whacking the new disco? Cause I am also not a fan.

I didn't love it either. Sasha was better, but... I don't know. And I LIKE disco. I think it's fun. That wasn't so much fun. But I do recall the girl who auditioned in this style, and Mary's right, she was incredible.
