I don't know what the Russian twins dance on SYTYCD was about but I had this viscreal reaction and was crying.

I was so happy to see SYTYCD back and the adult version! Gorgeous dancers on my screen plus Cat Deeley will always be welcome. Oddly glad to see Mary back on the judges panel, though I'm sure that will pass quickly. I thought the Russian sisters were breathtaking and unique. Kudos to the choreographer. They should get him to come work for the show.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I was watching the first episode of the GBBS (cake) and they showed a clip of the next episode (biscuits) with one of the bakers saying, "fear is the mindkiller" and I was hoping for gingerbread sandworms.

Is NO ONE else watching the GBBS (4th season)? They did something new - a batter episode. It was ... different ....

Glad to know I'm not the only one. They seem to have a number of good people at this point. I enjoyed the biscuit episode when there were periods of no talking, just intense crunching. I still run into the problem that some of their terms don't translate well from English into American.

SYTYCD is back and it's really good again this year because there are no kids but still an academy and all-stars picking their teams (which I thought was one of the only good things to come out of the whole SYTYCD Juniors experiment) and I am enjoying the heck out of the dancers that they have on the show plus Kat! That's all.

I've been catching up on world of Dance and I'm impressed . I still like SYTYCD but World of Dance keeps people in their style so that's good to see.
