I agree with the comments about the bunnies. I loved them. Just loved them.
I got stupid. The money was too good.

Who doesn't love bunnies? and when they're steeplechase bunnies? WIN! I don't even watch TAR and I stopped to watch the bunnies.

Marcus being so hilarious pep-talking the bunny was the only reason I wasn't wishing it was a double or triple elimination.
My roommate and were watching going "BUNNIES! IT MUST BE BUNNIES!" and she was like "Can we get a bunny?!?!"

That was so damn funny. Beau just laughed when he saw Marcus talking to the bunny. Funny thing is, I probably would have talked to the bunny too! Mostly to say "who's a good bunny? who's a good bunny? You are!"

FWIW, I would have guessed that churning the butter would have been the harder and longer task. Never get into an arm-wrestling match with a milkmaid -- grip like iron, arms like steel, all in a petite, rosy-cheeked package.

Yeah, I was surprised more teams didn't pick that. Though I suppose if you didn't know the rabbits were leashed...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I think they'd just had bad animal experiences and would have sworn off. I would have picked the butter churning because I want to learn how to make butter! But I would have known going in what a physical task it was going to be.
Still, bunnies!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Can we talk about Pentatonix absolutely KILLIN' IT with their version of "Let's Get It On" on last night's The Sing-Off? [link]
Holy molly, they're good. At this point, it'd be a travesty if anyone other than Pentatonix brought this baby home.

There are bunnies for sale on our local craigslist. The only thing stopping me from buying them is that they probably aren't trained to hop over fences. Well, that and Seabiscuit would think we'd bought him a snack.

Yeah, after seeing that performance, I just know that they have to win this. The Aires are great, Afro Blue is all jazzy goodness, and Urban Method is entertaining and innovative, but Pentatonix has it all, entertainment, innovation, incredible technique, and charisma in each of its members. They mentioned last night that the Aires have never been in the bottom two, but I don't think that Pentatonix has either. And it's really hard to remember that they only have five members, since they really do fill up the stage more than groups with twice that number.
