Thoughts. I will have some eventually. But my main thought is that I should always be watching SYTYCD with meara, bon bon and bob bob (who schooled us all in judge identifying)in my living room along with wine and yummy Mexican food.

The only people who really stood out for me were the blonde black girl who managed to almost rise above the monstrosity that was Tyce choreographing a lot of flailing to an emo version of a Rhianna club jam and why god, just why do they continue to let that fool work? Also, martial arts guy who was turning it out in the boys group number (with the appropriately identified by Nigel pregnancy pants - and apparently the hos in wardrobe and make up are back on the pipe). Also, I love, love that we have three ballet dancers on the show but I wanted to love that ballet number more than I did. Desmond and Dwight really let me down there, but Eurotrash Danny continues to be a yummy delight and one of my favorite moments of the night was bon bon noting that he had a massive case of man camel toe - ouch. It looked uncomfortable! And then that led to a delightful conversation about the wonders of dance belts and whether or not they are in fact just jock straps for dancers. Enlightening. And Big Pasty, Jr. stood out to me but not in a good way. Where did that fool come from and how can we send him back there? That is not what I want to see on my tv screen Wednesdays at 8:00. Oh, also Amelie has ridiculous turn out and she did a deep plie in second in that number with Bad Feet that I have now rewound a number of times because it's glorious. Work!

And those are some thoughts but I'm sure I'll have others. But right now it's mainly yay, buffistas! Buffistas in new places!

Yay for buffistas sytycd! Yeah, the blonde black girl is fabulous. I can't wait until they let her on camera. Oh, and I saw that plie! There was a great pointe moment in second in the ballet number, too. Could it be? Could we have a season with actual technical prowess?

I really liked the ballet choreography, which surprised me because I often don't, but then they said it was by Desmond Richardson and I was like, oh, of course.

So jealous of y'all getting to watch together!

You know, we could do that here too. I can even supply the Mexican food.

Hm, I could bring wine, but I can't provide the good snark.

Clearly, we need to import people (since I can't either). Maybe Megan Walker?

Do it! And I don't believe that y'all can't snark. It is the Buffista way.

I think you should come up and judge for yourself!

And then give us pointers.

Lee is full of good ideas today.

Unrelatedly: is anyone watching American Ninja Warrior? I'm kind of upset about the couple of competitors that finished the course this week but won't be going through to the next stage. It doesn't seem right. Especially since people who didn't finish the first course are going through from other regions.
