Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I don't know what if anything IV Real means off the show, but on the show, Comfort, Will, Joshua and Twitch do it. Will had a "Real" t-shirt on in the opening tonight.

Okay, I really like Katee. I like all the contmeporary dancers. I just want to them to quit throwing themselves on the floor! How do I know if you tripped, if you're performing a prayer or about to throw up?

I think Joshua had some serious footwork going there, too. There were a lot of interlocking footsteps there that could have tripped either of them up and they performed them flawlessly.

yeah, I know nothing about technique but I loved that. it looked like a tango. I feel like so many of the ballroom this season have been not the real dances.

I'm annoyed with Toni Basil "explaining" how the hip-hop dancers are so good at these dances. So street, the tango! So funky, the contemporary!
