well, this forum is full of Virgos!
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

SYTYCD
I thought the two new dances were incredible. The hip hop made me totally okay with the thought that Cyrus might well win, because he really was great. Also, I love Comfort.
Also Also, the Dragon House dance was kind of awesome
Man, I am glad Eliana won, though Tiffany definitely grew on me.

Very glad at the winners. Yay. And I love Rwitch and Comfort, and thought Cyrus was pretty darn good in that number too, so that was fun. I missed the first half hour or so, though--TiVo later in the week when I'm home.

SYTYCD: Extremely happy with the winners! Now off to come up with this year's awards for my blog. I fear it won't be as fun as last year...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Survivor starts tonight!

What's your blog address, megan? I know I have read it before but don't have it bookmarked.
I was trying to find a blank cd the other night to burn for my roommate and discovered I have tons of SYTYCD in DVD from past seasons when I had no HD but did have a DVD burning TiVo.

I blog at slywit.wordpress.com, but here is a link to just the SYTYCD posts. Although it's worth checking out my latest opera post if only for the clip of Rita Hayworth singing "Put the Blame on Mame."
A couple of freelance projects are coming to a head, but I'll get the final awards post up at the latest on Saturday.
Still trying to decide whether I'll be writing up The Voice and/or X-Factor. I try to keep a balance with books vs. music/dance, so with opera season starting, reality tv may have to take a breather.

I was thinking back off the top of my head for dances that were memorably good this season on SYTYCD and all I came up with was Eliana and Alex "Bang Bang" and the Witney and Twitch hip-hop number. On review, there was some other good stuff, but those are the only two I thought of without looking, which made me sad.

Because books.
I really liked The Love Cats routine.

Yeah, definitely didn't live up to the promise of the first episode--and notice that 4 of last night's "best of" dances came from that one episode (Turning Page, Lovecats, Unchained Melody, and Unstoppable).
