Shoot, I was hoping the Aaron & Fik-shun would be awesome. I mean, they did well with what they had, but the choreography was not great.

Eta: so it's Paula's fault!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! MARK CHOREOGRAPHING AMY AND JASMINE I AM SO HAPPY.

Mark talking about dancing is almost as good as Mark dancing. Well, no, that's going too far, but it is pretty fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

BB: Can I just say that of course it's idiotic to make a final four deal with a couple? The only way final 3/4 deals work is if everyone thinks they know that someone else would take them to final two. And obviously someone would take their luvvah over their friend!

Face Off: oh, man, Roy leaving that giant mold full of the wrong kind of foam out by the dumpster was so sad. I'm glad he didn't go home over it.

Oh yeah, that was brutal. I'm sure he benefited from being a known quality.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

she is so much more compelling to watch than back in auditions and Vegas. Wonderful.

You know, I think she has a lot more confidence and that is the difference. Dancing with confidence is like night and day for a dancer.

No doubt. I would've sent home the other guy that was in the bottom that didn't go home, personally. He has yet to show me anything interesting. Adolfo is at least cute hiding behind his hat when the judges are doing their close inspection of a makeup he knows isn't good - and he knows it isn't good, which is a plus!

That'd be my guess, too, le nubian. It's a harder growth to point to than an untrained (or "untrained") dancer getting better technically, but so very cool.

OMG Tim Gunn in shorts! My mind is blown.

At least he isn't in flip flops again, that was disturbing.

IDK, some of those looks were pretty cute, but nothing that I'd be surprised to find on a sale table at Sports Authority. I like the colors Heidi has in her line, I guess.

Even at the AIDS walk, Tim Gunn wore khakis!
