As soon as I saw both the ballet boys in the bottom three, I was bummed. Why did they send two couples home? That's not going to happen every week, is it? Although I am more okay with both the girls leaving, I would liked to have seen more of Daniel. And no solos at all, that's weird.
I had thoughts about the dancing but they are kind of overshadowed by the eliminations. Humph. I liked the Jive more and the Foxtrot less than the judges, is the gist.
Thanks for the PR heads up, Jesse, I had no idea.
I definitely liked the Jive more than the judges did.
Hey, meara, are you going to be in the SF area on a Wednesday any time soon? We are plotting a SYTYCD dinner.
I'm watching Road to the Runway, and I do not remember this Nick Verreos guy at all.
Uncle Nick! He was on the same season as Santino and Andre.
I used to follow his blog but it was a bit too self-promoting.
Ah, I think I only saw part of that season.
I cannot stand Buffi. I think her accent is fake (which is one of my BIG pet peeves). Her whole "persona" is put on.
She's like the $.50 Lady Gaga.
She's trying really hard to be outrageous, but some of her clothes are cute.
Looks like this season is certainly not going to be boring.
I get why they Kooan was safe, given Lantie and Beatrice's work, but I can't imagine how far he's going to get. Who's his customer? That's a pretty small niche.
I would have sent Lantie home over Beatrice, just because that beige lace dress was completely hideous. But I wonder if Beatrice is relieved -- how did she not know she needed decent sewing skills for this show?

Same here. That ugly tulle-ish material with the python *crookedly* sewn on bodice - blech. I thought it looked way worse than Beatrice's, which was mostly unobjectionable.
I hated that guy (Gunner? Gunnar? Something like that) who got sent home first last year then kept bitching about the winning designer in what came across like jealous snits. What an unpleasant little shit. I hope he gets sent home soon.
Ven's stuff is GORGEOUS but that pink dress was a bit sedate. I did love that bustier though.
