Sail, I agree with you about Kerrigan, but I think Shauna's biggest problem was that her partner was Cedric. I'dve sent Anya home instead. I would have loved to see Shauna with Danny.

Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own
This thread is for non-fiction TV, including but not limited to reality television (So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef: Masters, Project Runway), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Expedition Africa, Mythbusters), et al. [NAFDA]
I would have liked to see Shauna dance with someone else, too. I think if she'd had a better partner she would have shown more growth, but she was the one who had to keep pulling Cedric up to her level. I wish they had taken that into account, too. I think Anya's still here because she's partnering with Danny and she's really had to stretch to keep up, which worked in her favor. If you'd stuck her with Cedric, she'd be leaving instead of Shauna.
Oh well, at least Cedric's gone and Hok is safe. I was really worried about him and Jaime.
It gets tougher every week. I'm not looking forward to next week, unless they finally get rid of Neil and Lauren. Then I will jump for joy.
We can only hope!
Again I would have sent all of the girls home and kept the guys (And I mean, all seven girls). I thought Hok's dance for his life was really, really excellent.
Thank goodness, Cedric finally got sent home. Here's hoping Debbie Allen keeps her word, because I do think he has a lot of raw talent.
Should've been Lauren, not Shauna. Although, I do see the heaviness that others have cited. I was underwhelmed by this week. As much as I love some of the couples (Sabra and Dom especially), I think I am ready for a partner switch. I miss the S1 format sometimes.
Hok is generally excellent. The waltz was the first time I didn't like his performance, but I think that's becuase the waltz is all about the guy just standing there for the woman and holding her. I think that he's going to take it all. Is there a prize this year like the Celine Dion thing?
FRAGILAY!
Vortex, I don't think Hok will take it all. I think Hok has some generally ballroom weaknesses that have been showing up when they get ballroom dances. I love Hok to death, but given the format of this show, a rare hip hop and/or street dancer can win.
bon bon, I like the women a lot more than you do! I can't stand Lauren, but setting her aside, I think Sabra and Lacey (in particular) are really strong and surprisingly versatile. I also like Anya when she partners. She sucks at the solos. Next time she solos, she is going down. She's really pretty good in partner situations.
