May 22nd. It seems so far away.

But the MTV marathon is such good news! I wish they'd do S2 again. And little old lonely S1. So forlorn, but it was a really good season. Mmmmmm, Blake.

So rewatching SYTYCD is interesting. I realize that if I just completely tune Lauren out, Neil becomes much more tolerable. Their first week Club Salsa is still ridiculously awful, but he really did turn it out in the Dave Scott hip hop. I also remember how I wasn't completely won over by Danny until, ironically, the week he and Anya did Dan's hip hop routine. I thought the week one Jive he was still waaaay too ballet. (He was killing me with the gran plie and all the turn out!) Even in the Waltz (which was gorgeous for the most part) I remember hating that back turn that Mary was raving about because of the awkwardness of the head roll. (It looked like he was trying to pop Anya's head off) And now the judges are about to break my heart and send Chuy home. It is too much.

Sigh. I heart this show sooooo much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just watched the Neil/Sabra business dance, and I think I can stop watching now. I love that so much.

Yeah, I watched it all the way through to the end because I am a ginormous dork. But it was sooo good. And I got to see the Two Princes dance again which is one of my favorite dances on all three seasons of the show. And the Lacey/Danny Samba. And yes the Neil/Sabra table dance. Both also awesome.

Yeah, I had to watch all of that after all.

Ha! Jesse, my sistah.

I remember being really annoyed by the finale last year, but watching it just now, I didn't mind nearly as much. Probably because I already knew who was going to win, so I didn't care about all the bloat.

I missed the hummingbird -- I was taping the performance shows, but not the announcement shows, but they weren't actually showing them on the hour -- everything was ten minutes off.

I did skip the finale.
