Ha! Awesome.

Brilliant.

I think Ricky would be amazing as Frodo in a musical version of LotR.

This is perfect. Someone should get on this right now.

I watched. I loved both Zach and Ricky. I thought both Jessica and Valerie's worst dance flaws were exposed. Jessica is such an empty vessel. I never feel anything when she dances. In the Broadway, Zach was really giving it and even during the times where they were supposed to be looking at each other and smoldering, all of Jessica's energy was still out to the audience. She comes closest to being emotionally present in contemporary pieces with a partner who pushes her. She was there in that jazz piece with Ricky and also really present with Robert, although I didn't care much for the piece, but otherwise, it's all technique and competition face. And Valerie is just a tick below the others technically. Seeing her dance with Aaron really brought it home. She seemed so heavy dancing next to him and she was constantly looking down at her feet which made her seem unsure of her steps. And it didn't help that Zach and Aaron's dance was a joy. I've watched it seven times already. Seven! Also, Aaron is just a man out there. Damn.

It's so close for me between Ricky and Zach. Ricky is the superior technical dancer but Zach is amazing in his own right. He was so clean and neat in that Broadway number. I can see him in On the Town more than I can see Ricky. All that said, I just love me some Ricky Ubeda. He's such a treat to watch. That solo? Was everything. And I so wanted better lighting from the crack monkeys in production on his piece with Kathryn because while it was exquisite, there were points where they were almost dancing in the dark. Truth be told, I am really rooting for a Ricky win, but that's because my heart will always be with the gorgeous, ballet trained dancers with toe point of the gods. I can't help it. But I'd be fine with a Zach win, too. I don't know that I've ever seen a dancer transform more when dancing than he does. Just standing around, he's the kind of goofy that is not my cuppa at all, but dancing? Holy he'll is that boy fine!

Finally, I did not think the hip hop was all that. A lot was made of it, but there were lots of awkward moments in there. Neither one was reaching any Alex Wong levels of fierce, I'm just saying....although Zach was better than Ricky. That boy goes hard all the time.

In other reality tv news, I've just watched a bunch of CNBC biz dev shows, and The Profit may be my new favorite thing.

In other OTHER reality tv news, here's a picture of the new crop for TAR. I don't care about the "twist" in the article, but I was amused by the super-straight 2-guy team that can't even touch each other in the photo.

In Project Runway new, can Kini ever catch a break?

Oops, I didn't put the TAR link! Here: [link]

SYTYCD: NOOOOOOOOOO!
