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.

I really wish they'd show Season 1 all through like that, because I never saw it, I started watching with the start of Season 2!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I watched some of it today, but had to go grocery shopping. When I got back I was in time for the last 3 shows. I liked the dances better this time. I was so biased during the competition that I really didn't appreciate everyone. this time I just could watch and enjoy! Can't wait for Thursday!

It makes me really sad that they just pretend like S1 never existed because there were some really beautiful dancers back then - Nick and Ashle and Destini and Melody. And of course my gorgeous Blake. I still go back and forth about whether Blake's Body Language solo or Danny's We are the Champions solo is the best one ever on the show. And S1 workshop week in LA kicks all Vegas weeks in the ass. And, more Brian Friedman with the curls!! S1 is made of awesome.

And in other SYTYCD related news, while I was searching Youtube for clips of Pasha's Paso Doble solo (What? I'm addicted. I know this), I found clips of the Aussie SYTYCD and it was likewise made of awesome. And while I believe that the top US SYTYCD kids are on the whole more talented than the top Aussie kids (though not by much), the Aussie choreographers, especially the hip hop choreographers, put Dan and crew to shame. Well, maybe not Wade and Mia, but all the rest of them, I'd trade in a hearbeat to bring over some Down Under talent. They should totally do a marathon of the Australian SYTYCD just like they did Britain's Next Top Model on VH1 a few months back. (Although that was sad because the British girls made Tyra's crew look like a pack of Naomis and Cindys).
