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

I don't think we've seen him since he won.

He's turned up in the audition rounds. He was helping choreograph the hip hop for the Vegas round one season.

I am going to miss Cat Deely on my screen every week. She was so adorable just trying to get Kenny Ortega to put Melanie in the new Dirty Dancing.

I wish they'd get a little more time for their solos in the finale.

I loved the Sasha routine, I thought that the disco lacked energy, it felt slow to me. I think that Melanie got the Stacy Tookey, which evened out the Sonya routine and fit her style better.

I liked the second Sasha routine (didn't hurt that it's one of my favorite Broadway songs)

Right? They definitely should give them at least a full minute. But I adore Melanie. I feel like Sasha is a lightly more versatile dancer, but there's just something special about Melanie. I can't articulate. But I'll be happy if either of them win.

I just thought of a great finale bit -- Instead of the random solo, each dancer gets to pick a choreographer and the two of them choreograph a decent length routine (say three minutes) I would really like the opportunity to see what they can do when my focus isn't pulled by someone else, and by having a choreographer in the mix, the playing field is leveled.
