Sasha did look overwhelmed. That's a lot of pressure and tension and then BOOM.

Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own
This thread is for non-fiction TV, including but not limited to reality television (So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef: Masters, Project Runway), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Expedition Africa, Mythbusters), et al. [NAFDA]
I can't even imagine the amount of pressure they are all under. This last week must have been absolutely insane.
I think one of the beautiful things about Sasha as a dancer is she is fierce but also fragile. Melanie is more grounded and warm, but Sasha is vulnerable as well as tough.
Sasha was all angles and layers, Melanie was rounded and culy-que.
So it was Melanie, right? I can watch the show tomorrow, but I can't bear to try to avoid the result.
Yes, it was Melanie! I am so happy for her .
Project Runway: What the hell is this challenge? I get the outdoor, live show, and that's cool, but stilts?
Someone really thought there were no memorable routines? Wow. I am thinking of many routines I would have liked to have seen tonight and didn't, which just points to how strong the season was.
There were plenty of very good ones, but not many that hit me in the gut or just made me go wow, that's really cool.
There are very few that I want to watch over and over as in previous seasons. Stuff like the hummingbird/flower, black mambo, the garden, gravity, etc.
For me, a lot of it has to do with not liking the music as much. Maybe I'm spoiled, but I don't know how many dances* I'll remember when a season or two has gone by.
*Not dancers, because I think both Melanie and Sasha were fierce.
Was Sasha okay?
It looked to me like she was limping and being helped offstage, plus some of the judges commented on her battling through an injury. I hope it's nothing serious/long lasting.
It struck me that with rehearsing for repeats of dances they'd done before as well as the new ones - and were they in the group dance at the beginning? - the top four were probably exhausted. So happy with the top two.
