I am finally watching the Top 20 performance show. Yes, I know. But I had to come and say how adorable is Brian Friedman with his stilettos? So cute! The girls were great dancing that number, too.
Hating the camerawork already, btw, as I so often do on this show. Show me all the dancers, dammit!
Oh, my, the ballet boys are lovely.
ETA: Broadway I like, woohoo!
Up to the first elimination episode (I'm finding that watching just the rehearsals and performances and FF-ing past all the judging and whatever while I scroll through the thread looking for what y'all said way back when really works well for me so far (I did watch the Jason Derulo performance because I had no idea what he is all about but I'm afraid I still don't, and I am guessing that I may be missing some fun Cat moments, but I'm okay with that considering how behind I am)), woohoo! I will say this for the Stage vs Street concept: the way they have always done the Dance Ins makes much more sense now than it ever did with Boys and Girls.
Degree has done product placement on a LOT of shows, haven't they?
So does stage vs street just mean it's not one boy and one girl paired up every week? Because, okay, that's good.
I just don't get what the concept is at this point, and if it is explained by the judges I am not going to get it, I suppose.
Jaja and Jim, love. So different from what she usually does, really worked for me.
Oh, I want to like Megz, but girl needs to stand straighter, keep her head up, and have more...crisp? purposeful? movements.
I actually really liked the way she carried herself - I know it's not really correct posture, but it looked, I don't know, determined and purposeful and that made it okay to me.
Dug the seesaw routine a lot, although the camera work was not how I would have liked it to be, dammit. Do not like the sleeves (like fake tattoo sleeves?) on some of them.
Team stage had a couple of cool lifts and when they all came together in a mass was nifty, but I'm not sure I really got what that was about.
I do not remember Darian and Lily from earlier, so I guess I am okay with them leaving. Surprised it was two girls in the bottom for Team Street.
FF-ing through all the non-dance parts of the anniversary show made it very enjoyable indeed.
SYTYCD: MELANIE!
I'm watching on east coast time tonight but missed the first 30 min (because silly central time starts at 7pm). So I missed Megz. Boo.
