She is the Chenbot no longer!

I'm leaving this here so I remember to come back to it: Jun Song's blog: [link]

FINALLY getting around to watching last week's ep.

And Paula was totally right when she said that Aaron is a throwback to that 40s style, MGM Musical, man’s man dancer. I could see him as one of the sailors in South Pacific or On the Town. He just brings that essence

This is so true! He'd be great in one of those. And then he could tap. I wonder if he can sing? :)

Sean Cheesman. Ugh, dammit.

Hey, at least it wasn't African Jazz?

Jenna and Tucker were bad, kittens. Bad from the jump. I was watch from the hall embarrassed for them. The choreography: bad. The costuming: bad (for the first time all night). The music choice: bad. It’s like all the bad had been saving itself up for this moment to create a supernova of badness.

Yeah, I like both of them a lot and that was just painful to watch. They tried, but damn.

Since Mary mentioned it, I’d much rather have seen Melanie and Marco dance that piece.

Ooh, now that would've been a lot better, yeah.

Oh, my word, the lifts were awkward as hell.

Yeah, that just was awkward. Ouch. But she seemed pretty darn good, I liked her!

Poor Nico needs some accutane. Also, I can't approve of the boots she's wearing with that outfit. Ooh, he spins nice. And all my attention is on him, not on her. Dang, girl, fading into the background for me. Didn't love this.

And Nigel and his whole Danny and Travis lost because they had no personality history lesson can kiss my ass. Sabra and Benji won because they were relentlessly pimped and in Danny’s case, along with the relentless pimping, there was a tandem campaign to paint him as an uppity black man. Danny and Travis both had great personalities. Gah. I just hate that man

Yeah, don't hate on Peanut! Benji has a shit ton of personality, yes, and I've enjoyed the hell out of the classes I've taken that he taught. And he's a great dancer. But jeez.

I'm not against re-using dances if they were awesome--most people here don't watch/get to see SYTYCD Canada! But that wasn't one I would've been dying to re-watch if I'd seen it in Canada in the first place.

CBS put a warning up at the beginning of the episode, so I guess it's another edition of Big Brother: Racism.

Jesus, this shit tonight is 100% fucking America. "Just take it, just take it -- it's not worth fighting back."

I actually watched the after dark for this one. The conversation between Howard and Candace is just heartbreaking.

Oh yeah, someone I know linked a YouTube on FB. I meant to watch it, but now think I can't take more.

It's pretty well represented, as is the mean-girling and the bullying over the beds.

I did enjoy, "It's like being in high school again, but now I'm on the other side."

bah! no SYTYCD tonight ... it's football

It's All-Star Game (baseball).
