le n, we swore we wouldn't either but then, there wasn't anything else on and we got sucked in. Maybe next week we'll just watch of bunch of Community extras from season 1 again.
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

Okay, I feel slightly less annoyed with Nina now. Apparently, she had another issue with the birdseed dress that was cut from the show. TLo discusses it here.

Eh, I'm trying not to judge his accent - maybe his parents have strong accents and that interacted with living abroad. Maybe it is an affectation, or started as one and now is just how he talks. If he suddenly has a completely different accent, I will judge, but not now.
Eta: thanks, Kristen. Too bad that criticism got cut!

Thanks Kristen. I was just going to link the TLo article. It's a good one. If you read their other piece about the winners, their teasing of Oliver made me laugh out loud.

SYTYCD - I am so thrilled with Melanie and she was my favorite from the auditions.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have serious doubts about Nina's taste level.
Seriously. And I guess I see what she means about the McQueen, but still.
My other issue is that I totally don't understand the difference between a beautiful simple silhouette and a plain boring one. They all seem the same to me.

SYTYCD - I am so thrilled with Melanie and she was my favorite from the auditions.
This exactly. It's so rare that my pre-like for a contestant holds up for an entire season. At some point, hating has to happen. Either the contestant turns out to be unable to sustain the high quality hinted at in his/her audition, or some personality flaws peek through, or other contestants sneak up on me and steal my heart away or . . .something. With Melanie, I liked her from the jump and she's just grown on me more and more all season.
I still would be happy with a Sasha or a Marko win, but I'd be over the moon with a Melanie win. Plus a Melanie win would provide a perfectly even split with four male winners (Nick, Benji, Joshua, Russell) and four female winners (Sabra, Jeanine, TBC and Melanie - or Sasha, too, if she won it) and that would be fun.
Wow, looking at that past winners list, I only really have issues with Nick and Sabra. All the other winners I could make a case for why they deserved to take it all even if they weren't my personal favorites of their respective seasons. SYTYCD is just a quality show, y'all.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ovation is showing reruns of S6 SYTYCD. I hadn't realized Sasha had auditioned before! Eta: by herself though, not with her sister.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Ok, now that I've read the TLo article, I feel better about the decision. But, I'm still gonna keep my eye on Nina. I haven't forgotten last season!

Three hours of SYTYCD! Oh, I love Ovation right now.
PR: So I read TLo before I watched but I still don't agree. The birdseed dress was just better. I actually think the fish tank stone dress was better, too (although I agreed about the bad styling). I think I just don't get Olivier and his accent of many countries.
