- eeeeeee Travis is on the judges panel. that's kind of awesome. although it means no Travis routines this week. sad face.
- Top 7 boys - although if new choreographer is always going to do stuff like he did with the guys then he can definitely stay. that was gorgeous. I even like Jess!
- (oh and I don't think it odd that Carmen Elektra is on panel. she does have a dance background.)
- Melanie and Marko - (okay can I just say that I am super bummed that Melanie has a bf. I was kind of hoping she liked the ladies. not that a bf really means anything. WHATEVER I THINK SHE'S SO CUTE AND TOTES HAD A CHANCE. ahahhaha oh self.) I don't know that I love this dance, but I think it's more the choreography. it feels disjointed. that said I thought they danced it really well. but since the judges are giving him a tongue bath I guess the choreography is great? what do I know. (ugh the anti-drag queen shtick is getting on my nerves)
- Sasha and Alexander - that was super cute. I loved how smooth and fluid all the moves were. and of course I was really only paying attention to Sasha. Alexander is a great dancer but I can only really concentrate on her. aaaaand the judges totally hate this. awwww Travis trying to be nice. I adore him.
- Jordan and Tadd - I love Toni Redpath. This is a beautiful routine. I want to like Jordan more but she has such a vacant look in her eyes sometimes. Tadd is wonderful. he's doing such a great job with other styles. I think he's amazing.
- Clarice and Jess - god Jess drives me up the wall but the kid can dance. Clarice is gorgeous. that was really beautiful. I'm really loving everything tonight. and yes I totally agree with the judges the emotion of this piece was fantastic.
- Ashley and Chris - better than I thought it would be but uh. something definitely missing. and we've reached the point where I just mute Carmen. and I'm agreeing with the judges. they got through the routine. the partnering was good. but everything was just awkward.
- Ryan and Ricky - I'm not sure why the wardrobe department felt the need to make Ricky the gayest of all gay cowboys. anyway I liked that. did I think it was a good a zombie dance as 'Rama Lama?' no. but then nothing ever will be. still. very entertaining.
- Caitlyn and Mitchell - holy crap this is amazing. absolutely stunning. the lifts and just everything. totally well deserved standing ovation. by far the best of the night. just incredible.
- Top 7 girls - omg song choice is AMAZING. now I get the hype about this choreographer. this is fantastic. Sasha and Melanie are really standing out for me in this. shocking I know.
the one good thing about watching the shows after they air is that I don't have to wait at all for the results. woot.
- oooh bollywood group number. very nice.
- TRAVIS YOU ARE SO ADORABLE.
- and we seem to have lost Carmen.
- I'm assuming both of these couples are safe. yeah.
- of these three couples I would say Clarice/Jess are safe. uh huh.
- and of the final two couples? hmmmm. I'm going to go with Ryan/Ricky are safe. (in more shallow news, Ryan looks really beautiful tonight. there's a softness about her that isn't usually there.)
- oh America you suuuuuck. Ryan and Ricky were SO MUCH BETTER. (I get it. Sasha is awesome.)
- cedar lake contemporary ballet. awesome. I looooove the dancers they bring on this show.
- Ashley: lovely.
- Chris: his moves are crazy, but I'm not convinced he should stay.
- Jordan: her legs are nuts.
- Tadd: uhhhh... idek what that was.
- Ryan: well she gave it her all. I sometimes feel like she hides behind her hair.
- Ricky: by far the best male solo.
- Florence and the Machine - I LOVE THIS SONG. I know I was late to jump on this particular bandwagon but her voice is just. it makes me feel all twisty inside.
- sadly I'm calling Jordan and Tadd going home.
- oh. I wasn't expecting Ashley. wonder if this means Chris is going home since they've really been eliminating couples this year.
- oh Travis looks gutted. :(
- and so Chris is going home. also Nigel way to put it all on Travis. I don't usually complain about Nigel but that was kind of crap.
