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...
Mal: You are very much lacking in imagination. Zoe: I imagine that's so, sir.

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).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm so annoyed that the Big Brother finale runs until 11. I might quit watching and ff in the morning, because really I just care who wins.

Dang.
Survivor: So funny to see the jackass outsmart himself so fast. You are not the new Russell, tool. [Please let there never be a new Russell.]
Plus all the stunt casting looks to be done with pretty soon.
