Oh, very cool. God, I can't wait. I loved (most of) the Olympics, but I did not love being deprived of My Shows.
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]
Am I the only one disappointed that we lost Amber in the last cull?
My mom and dad stopped over right as the show was starting -- who are the guest judges?
The Ballet Boyz
Thanks, Vortex. It's weirdly offensive to me that they're not making a note of the dancers' names, especially when all the other guest judges know the dancers and the show so well.
Cat's dress is a little ... wild. And I'm not sure how I feel about the weird Heidi braid thing.
Why am I not at all surprised that Cole and Mark are friends?
Please save Amelia and George!
Oops, should I white-font?

I can't imagine that they aren't given a list of the dancers' names. I'm with you on that. If they were so excited to give the critique that they forgot, that's one thing, but it feels careless.
I feel like they got better at referring to the notes as the show went on, so maybe someone told them to shape up.
I didn't realize we were losing two again last night. That was tough. That said, I wasn't too sorry to lose the girls we did; both of them had consistently underperformed. It was a hell of a choice with the boys, though. I am VERY glad they saved George, who is awesome and has a hard row to hoe, IMO, with the voters (black male street dancers = voter gold (see also: Cyrus); black male contemporary dancers of a quiet and modest disposition=much harder.) But Matthew had plenty more to show, I thought. I wish we could have lost Cyrus.
Rewatching the Mia dances with new dancers was a little weird. George really shone for me. I also really like Audrey, though I never liked the Mia's Daddy dance. And I just really like Eliana (not least because she sort of reminds me of our own Kate P.!)
So, any fantasy All Star pairings? George and Melanie would be cool...
