Thrive to spite them

Pasha doesn't compare in the solo but he's a much better dancer over all and has shown more versatility. I think.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, for fuck's sake! Stupid panties.

Heh. That's what I say. But she's honestly, overall, the better dancer than Faina.

Oh, and when I said "jitterbug" above, I meant "jive."

Yeah, she's just so much better at doing other people's choreography that I forget I hate her until she does her own thing!

Damn, I would have much rather seen Cedric leave. At least Pasha scraped by.

I can't believe that they are supporting Cedric again! That's just ARGHH!!

I'm sure that Cedric will end up in the bottom 3 next week and I damn sure hope that Nigel stays with what he says.

Aw, poor Cedric's all crying, too. He's such a dohdee. Which I can't explain without tone of voice, so, sorry.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think that was the problem. Jazz is not a form a lot of people feel comfortable with or understand. So they vote for the style of the dance rather than the dancers. That's what happens when you let the unwashed masses vote.

This. They're going to respond to hip hop or contemporary, but you get into jazz or Martha Graham type shit, and they're for the most part lost.

TC: I haven't watched that much, but I like the Asian guy and the guy who won the BBQ thing. He was clapping when the judges congratulated the women for coming back. He could have just stood there, but it seemed he was actually happy for them.

SYTYCD: I call huge bullshit on Cedric staying. Yes, he has a wonderful fluidity when he is freestyling, but he sucked as a partner last night. I can see him doing ok with contemporary, but another ballroom style? A jazz choreography like Tyce did last night? How would he have done in that Broadway routine Shauna and Jimmy did last week? I didn't care all that much for Jimmy's DOD solo tonight, too frantic, but I definitely think he should have stayed.

I was really impressed by Shauna tonight. I didn't know she had it like that. Between Faina and Jesse, I didn't really care. Don't like either one of them. Faina brought the stank face attitude, so I'm actually kinda glad that she went home tonight. Hopefully, baby oil girl will be next. For the life of me, I don't know what the jidges see in her.

As for the rest, Chuy and Sarah and Sabra and Dom = Love. Shane's choreography for the group number blew me away. It's the best thing he's ever done on the show and I would not have thought he had it in him. And for the love of all that is holy, please make the musical guests stop. Why don't they bring on some dance companies? Too much like right?
