Loved seeing some of the all-stars. Amy! Jenna!
Hated the lighting in the ballet--I couldn't see her feet!!!
Loved Katherine's dress, hate Casey. So much.
Love Ricky but didn't feel him this week. Was shocked by how good I thought Rudy was!
Did not ove Nappy Tabs glorifying bus-stop harassment by old men?
Rudy's BFF was ballroom on here, right?
Yep, was it Nick or did I totally make that up? Oh my word, y'all, that kid's name is completely gone from my memory and he was just on this show! Anyway, he was a ballroom dancer, which makes me think that Rudy has been cross-trained in ballroom to some extent. Still, he was shockingly good in that number. I was impressed.
Project Runway: the judges are still on crack.
SYTYCD: No, no, and Hell No!!!
The wrong dancers were sent home! Damnit!
I'm watching with Bon Bon and Bob Bob! But we are sad Kat is not here and hasn't posted yet so we can't know what she thinks yet!
Yeah, Nico didn't quite have the same turn of phrase!
Scattered thoughts at lunch break at work:
I am so glad Twitch got to dance sexy in this routine. One of my ongoing issues with Twitch on the show is how his sexuality is neutered (i.e., last week played for laughs as an old guy) and here I was like, "damn."
WILL! With bonus shirtlessness! I really liked that routine. I like Jessica - I think she is just young. (Ditto, Casey. Both good dancers who need a couple of years experience. Actually, ditto Valerie - if that girl is not a virgin I'll eat my hat. That's why her samba was kinda meh.)
I know Ricky is really good, but Zack is totally my favorite. Hot damn, he's a beast on stage. Also, who the heck is Mackenzie? I have no memory of her at all.
I am sad to lose White Tanisha - she was my favorite girl.

This. I;ve been mulling it over all day, and I think it was her calm demeanor and her Meryl Streep-face. I think the teeny boppers who vote in droves can't handle unconventional looks or maturity.
Last year I;m sure the couple who won - who were really good - because they were both young, small and cute. As opposed the taller, slightly more mature couple that came in second but should have won.
or...I'm completely making this up.
