kat, I love your comments so much! And will just say: YES.
She was 8 when SYTYCD started? Damn, y’all.
I meant to say -- no she wasn't. Wikipedia tells me it was July 2005. That was only 6 years ago! She is not 14.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
kat, thank you for writing up the entire show - it sums up so much of what I've been thinking.
Observation one: for the best dancers, dancing isn't something they do, it's an integral part of who/what they are.
Observation two: a final reason to love Melanie and Sasha - no hair flinging.

Aww, shucks. Thanks for letting me come here and pontificate about this show.
I really wish that there was a rule that all girls who do not have short hair had to pull it back into a ponytail or a bun for their solos. Down with the hair flinging nightmares. It covers a multitude of sins.
I am excited about tonight's dance guests. I know that several SYTYCD faves have at one time performed with the Bad Boys of Dance, inlcuding the brothers Wall and Tidwell. I would pay a lot for a Danny sighting.

Jakob Karr was with them recently too. I have been wishing we could have him as an all-star.

This.
Too bad there was no ballerina this cycle, he might have come back as an all-star to partner for that.
And, no, I don't believe they are drawing things out of the hat anymore.

They aren't even making a pretense that the dance assignments are from some random draw this season. They just announce the assignments and go. I'm actually glad they gave up that fiction because it's been apparent since around S3 that the random pick of the hat was anything but random.
I would love to see Jakob back on the SYTYCD stage.

I'd love to see Joshua and Katie! They've both helped in the tryout stage, but it would be nice to see them perform again.

I'm a little worried about the elimination tonight. What's-her-name and Ricky were better than usual last night.
