So You Think You Can Dance Season 7: Top 11 Perform

Who's ready for some SYTYCD?! This season is a bit different from past seasons.  Instead of a Top 20, there's a Top 11, and every week someone gets paired up with a dancer from a past season, or an "All Star" as you will.  Also, apparently the judges get to choose who goes home every single week, instead of just during the first half of the competition (laaaaaaame). Also, also, MARY MURPHY IS GONE!!!!!111 WOO WOO!!!1111  You have no idea how happy this makes me.  Mary Murphy was like Kara DioGuardi times a thousand.  Mia Michaels is a crazy bitch, but oh lordy is she better than Mary.

I won't bore you with detailed thoughts about everyone's performances.  I got too lazy to do that.  I will say that it was really super awesome to see some of my favorite dancers again though :D  Mark, Pasha, Neil, Ade! YAAAAAAAAAAY! Definitely the best part of the episode.  As there are less and less contestants though, does that just mean certain All Stars will take breaks certain weeks since they're attached to a specific style, or...how does that work exactly?

Despite the fact that it was super awesome seeing the old dancers again, I still felt the whole thing was a little strange in that they weren't being judged at all.  They were there on the stage, having just as much participation as the actual contestant, yet we're supposed to ignore them?  Often I thought the All Stars were better than the contestant, so I either couldn't really pay attention to the contestant at all OR the contestant paled in comparison and I thought they were worse than they probably were.  For example, Pasha and Melinda's Jive, all I could focus on was Pasha who was killing it, so when they started bashing Melinda afterward, I was just like, "oh...really? I thought it was good".  Really though, just Pasha was good lol.  Or Mark and Christina's Jazz.  Mark is so unbelievably good at that style of dance that I thought he totally outdanced Christina and she wasn't that good.  Of course, the judges loved her lol.   It's all a bit distracting. Aw well, I'll keep looking forward to seeing my favorite All Stars every week anyways.

One of the highlights of the night was Alex and Allison's contemporary piece.  First, I have to point out the fact that Sonya is totally my favorite choreographer.  Girl is amazing.  Second, the Jeff Buckley version of Hallelujah is one of the greatest songs ever, so it already had that going for it.  But it was still really really amazing. Both of those dancers were incredible and it gave me goosebumps.  Just gut wrenching (best ever though? I don't think so).  Another highlight was Robert and Courtney's African Jazz. SO fun and totally flawless.  I think I really like that Robert guy.  I will root for you, Robert!

Anyone else watching? What did ya think?

So You Think You Can Dance Finale

CONGRATS JEANINE!!!!!



























I didn't realize until the moment that he got eliminated that if it couldn't be my wonderful baby, Ade, that I actually really kind of wanted Evan to win. I'm totally fine with it though because Jeanine was very deserving and by the end of the season totally grew on me. In the end though, this was a thoroughly 'meh' season of SYTYCD, and watching the finale in the Kodak theater just made me realize how much I miss American Idol....or really just Kris Allen on my TV screen. Sigh...I need the tour right now, Zozizzle. I need it.

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 4 Perform

Finale! Who will win? Who do I want to win? Who cares? Not gonna lie, I don't really at all. I would be happy if anyone won really (ok, so I wouldn't be very happy if Kayla won).

I'm already missing Ade and Melissa. Again, Ade was I think my favorite, and if he was still around, I think I would be rooting for him to win.

They're in the Kodak theater? That's new this year, right? Isn't that where the American Idol finale was? Ah the American Idol finale...I'm having such amazing flashbacks right now. Sigh...

Adam motherfucking Shankman! YES! Hands down my favorite judge.

Top 4 Dance: Two jocks and two cheerleaders. That was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Cute and really, really fun. It was cool and different.

Evan & Jeanine - Jazz: Aw that was good. It's weird seeing them dance on that stage though. I don't know if I like it. I thought this was a good dance, but I wasn't incredibly wowed by it or anything.

Brandon - Solo: Brandon's grown on me so much during this competition. He was AMAZING last week. If he won, I wouldn't be mad at all. And yep, he was amazing again. He's such a powerful dancer. It's really kind of awesome to watch.

Brandon & Kayla - Broadway: I normally don't like Broadway, but this was really good. I really liked it. I think I liked it because it was darker and weirder and less cheerful than most of the other Broadway routines.

Jeanine - Solo: Another one that totally grew on me. She needed to get away from Phillip before I could fully appreciate her. Oh this was one of her best solos. I really liked that A LOT. You guys...I'm starting to think she might win this show.

Evan & Brandon - Pop Jazz: That was interesting. I don't even really know what to think about this dance. It was just awkward all around. Poor Evan...they're really ripping into him.

Kayla & Jeanine - Contemporary: The best part about that was the taking off of the different layers, but otherwise it was kind of meh. A little boring. Jeanine was better than Kayla though.

Evan - Solo: Evan! I really do like you a lot. If you won, that would be alright. He's so unique so that's why I've always liked him. He's different from anyone else on this show. Unfortunately, that wasn't his best solo. He needed to bring it a bit more. Oh they are being so mean to him. I STILL LOVE YOU, EVAN!

Evan & Kayla - Jive: Why did I like that so much? What? That was fun, and Evan was better than Kayla. Oh crap, the more and more they criticize Evan, the more likely he is to get pity votes and win the whole show.

Kayla - Solo: She's the freaking Danny Gokey of this show, ugh. That was a fine solo, but idk, once again I'm not impressed. Please don't win, Kayla.

Brandon & Jeanine - Paso Doble: Oh wow, that shit was intense. It wasn't my favorite dance, but it was still really damn good....and cool.

Overall: Who's going to win? Who's going to win? For once, I actually think I know who's going to take it: Jeanine. I didn't think it was possible, but I really think she's going to win. And if it's not her, I think it might be Brandon. Evan though...Evan is the wildcard in all of this. He's not the best dancer, I'll admit that, but they totally threw him under the bus this episode and I think he could get a lot of pity votes. Especially because he has such a large fanbase. Honestly, if Kayla's the Gokey of SYTYCD, then Evan is kind of the Kris, and really, just thinking about that makes me want Evan to win (although, I will say that Kris was legit the best of the season (along with Adam), where it's clear that Evan isn't the best. But...this episode and Evan's sad, defeated face is reminding me of Rock Week on American Idol and it makes me want Evan to win to shove it in the judges' faces). As long as it's not Kayla, I'm good. And luckily, I really don't think she has a chance at all. Not voting though so...whatever! :)

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 6 Perform

Jason! :( I was crushed last week when he was eliminated, but at the same time understood it. Watching his and Brandon's solos back to back made it apparent that Brandon really was the better dancer. I'll still miss Jason and his adorableness though :(

As far as the girls, however, last week was a total win-win! It's strange however that when it came right down to it, I was happy it was Janette and not Kayla. I think I'm starting to maybe sort of like her a little bit more than I used to. At least I don't hate her anymore, heh.

Oh, hi, this is my dream Top 4: Evan, Ade, Jeanine, Melissa

Could it happen? Probably not. Do I really care that much? No. I'm telling you people, this years American Idol was an anomaly. I normally DO NOT get this invested in reality shows. I honestly do not really care who wins. It's why I very rarely watch the results shows.

Oh, I'm sorry, you want me to start talking about the episode now? OK!

HOLY CRAP, THIS SHOW IS STILL 2 HOURS?! Sigh....

Oh, Lil C is there. Alright, Lil C. I like you. You can stay.

Nigel just dissed everyone left. Nice, Nigel. I'm sure that makes everyone feel great.

Top 3 guys - Jazz: Yeah, Sonya! She's one of my fav choreographers. This dance sounds like it's going to be awesome.
That was SO weird, but I could not stop laughing and smiling throughout the whole thing. I pretty much am in love with that routine. I don't mind all the freaking filler during this show if it has routines like that.

Jeanine & Ade - Samba: I'm in love with Ade, I don't even know. Also...does anyone not really like the latin dances on this show? Even if they're fast and lively, I'm always kind of 'been there, done that' about them.
Oh hey, "LoveGame". Damn, they are rocking it! This is certainly sexy. I really like these two a lot. That was very, very good. Oh...the judges aren't liking it. I don't know anything about dance, heh.

Kayla -Solo: "You Found Me". Um....she's very twitchy. I didn't really like that very much. And I'm not just saying that because I don't want her in my Top 4, that was kind of a strange solo.

Melissa & Evan - Broadway: Wow, they sound so unenthusiastic talking about each other, heh. Oh, Broadway, this should be good for Evan.
Aw, that was super cute. I thought they danced it pretty well. I'm not sure about the choreography though. You know, the judges were pretty nice to Evan, but I sometimes think the show wants Evan gone. I don't know, it's just a feeling I've gotten. They never give him effusive praise and they tend to criticize him a lot. I think they can't get rid of him though, because his popularity has sort of gotten out of control. He might even win this whole dang show (which would be cool with me!)

Ade - Solo: So many contemporary dancers on this show. Aw, so good! I love you, Ade! Kris Allen has the same shirt as Ade....Um....the fact that I know that is really, really sad. What is my life?

Kayla & Brandon - Contemporary: LOL at these two being the two I don't want in my Top 4.
OMG the synchronization! OMFG that was beautiful! Hot damn. Amazing. Ok, ok, I don't even know anymore. That was so amazing, I want these two to be in the Top 4 now. I don't even know how to feel. I don't care who gets into the Top 4 anymore!

Melissa - Solo: Melissa, I love you girl, but you gotta show a little bit more in your solos. That was kind of boring. I think Melissa might be in the most danger tomorrow :/

Jeanine & Ade - Hip-Hop: Boxes. Oh, an apartment story. Say what you will about NappyTabs, they always have interesting storylines for their dances.
Hard hitting. Aw yay! That was really good! I used to think Evan was my favorite, but somehow, someway, Ade overtook that spot. I love him! Win this show, Ade!

Brandon - Solo: Holy crap, Brandon just Brought. It. Damn boy, THAT is how you make yourself stand out. Shit just got real, bitches! The audience is giving him a standing ovation. Nigel just said he gave one of the best solos they've seen on the show. Damn, Brandon. I take it back. I take it all back. You NEED to be in the Top 4. You maybe need to win the whole show. LOL I'm so schizophrenic.

Melissa & Evan - Quickstep: I don't like the quickstep that much :/ Ok, wait, maybe this show does want Evan to win. He's getting two routines right in his style.
Ah this was so much fun! One of my fav quicksteps I've ever seen on this show. Way better than their broadway. I liked it a lot. Judges aren't liking it that much. I know nothing about dance.

Jeanine - Solo: Again, kind of a boring solo. We want to see something new. Besides Brandon, no one is showing us something that we already didn't know that they could do.

Evan - Solo: Ok, so Evan didn't show us anything he couldn't do, but at least he isn't a contemporary dancer. That's why I always love his solos.

Brandon & Kayla - Disco: Oh, disco again :/
Whoa mama, that was fun. They were very good. So, do you guys think the show wants Brandon and Kayla in the top 4? They only gave them 2 of the best routines of the night. What the hell is Lil C talking about? Oh, uh, I guess Nigel pretty much just answered my question, didn't he? He so has it in the bag for these two, heh.

Top 3 Girls - Contemporary: Yeah, Sonya again! Rockin' the Bjork T-shirt!
That was power...Girl power! Yeah, I dug that. Pretty dang cool.

Overall opinions: I'M IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOOOOOOOTION!!!!!! I have no idea who is going home or who I want to go home or anything right now. I'm right back to not caring who wins, because I just don't know who I want to win anymore. Ok ok, wait, I am going to make a prediction on who is going home tomorrow. I have a big long, complicated reason that I just spent 10 minutes telling to Zozizzle (who only just got here for the last 10 minutes), but I'm not going to repeat it here because I'm lazy and it would take forever. So here it is, going home tomorrow: Melissa and Ade.

Comments from Zozizzle: I've only seen the last part of this episode, but I think, even though I only saw a snippet of the solos, Brandon should stay. Jeanine is my favorite girl. I really liked what I saw of her last week, so I think she should be in the Top 4. As far as the other 2 spots, I think anyone could make it. If Evan makes it into the Top 4, do you think he could win? I think he might be in over his head, but his fanbase could power him to the top. Overall, less Mary, more dancers = a happy Zozizzle.

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 8 Perform

Ellen is a guest judge! Yes! Hopefully she can counteract the terribleness of all of the other judges.

Group number to "Let it Rock". Um...what the hell are they wearing? That was cool though. This show still has ridiculous amounts of filler.

Evan & Janette - Jazz: This is freaky and weird like all of Sonya's routines. Oh wow, they are really well synchronized. Ah, I liked this. I don't know if it was necessarily the best routine, but it was enjoyable.

Kayla - Solo: Props for using an Imogen Heap song. I still don't really care much for her though.

Brandon & Jeanine - Waltz: "May It Be"! Fuck yeah, LOTR! Why not the Enya version though? Ahem...anyhoo, that was ridiculously smooth. I can never judge these types of dances that well though, because I find them kind of boring.

Jason - Solo: Oh Taking Back Sunday! Yeah! I can't help it, Jason is so adorable that I like every thing he does. I really do think he's a good dancer though, and that this was a strong solo.

Melissa & Ade - Cha Cha: Holy crap! Move those hips, Ade! Mmmm they were sexy! I liked it. I love these two together.

Janette - Solo: That was pretty good. She still does not excite me in the slightest though. Why do I dislike the majority of the girls on this show?

Jason & Kayla - Broadway: Aw, yeah I liked this. Jason is really charismatic. I'm proud of him actually. I think he was really good here. Stole the spotlight from Kayla, although she was very good too.

Ade - Solo: I. Love. Him. He's so good! When did he become one of my favorites? I love him so much!

Janette & Evan - Rumba: Kris 'your muthafucking American Idol' Allen's version of "Heartless" for this dance, bitches! MOTHERFUCKING YES! Ok, so this dance was really slow and kind of weird and I have no idea if it was any good, but I'm so ridiculously happy to hear Kris on my TV again that I don't care. Yay Kris!

Melissa - Solo: Hello 80s. Um, that was weird. Which makes me upset because she's my favorite girl left. Please don't get eliminated this week.

Brandon & Jeanine - Hip-Hop: Again, they are ridiculously synchronized. They are awesome! I really liked this dance a lot. Super cool! One of the better ones of the night.

Evan - Solo: Oh no, he dropped his hat! Aw, it's ok, he recovered well and was still really good. I love him a lot.

Jeanine - Solo: Holy crap, this is the first time I've really been blown away by her dancing. I think she might of had the best solo of the night. I think...I think I finally like her now. Yay!

Melissa & Ada - Contemporary: Story is a women who has breast cancer. Uh oh. They're trying to pull on the heart strings. Oh wow, that was really good. They were amazing. Holy crap, everyone is crying. No, seriously, everyone in the studio is crying. EVERYONE'S IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION!

Brandon- Solo: He's such a powerful dancer. His solos are always so explosive. He's great.

Jason & Kayla - Hip-Hop: Zombie dance! Yes! THIS WAS AWESOME! I loved this so much! Maybe my favorite routine of the night. I can't even say how cool I thought this was. Look that shit up on YouTube right now.

I have absolutely no idea who's going home tomorrow. I thought the night was suitably 'meh' overall, with a few exceptions. I'm thinking Evan is in trouble based on his dances, but he's really popular and I think that could keep him safe. I know Jason and Ade had been in trouble before, but they were both in the two best routines of the night. Maybe Brandon's in danger? I was thinking Melissa was in danger, but after her Contemporary, I'm not so sure anymore. I'm really hoping it'll be Janette or Kayla, but Janette's really popular and Kayla was in the awesome Zombie routine. So basically I have no flipping idea, heh. What do I care anyways? I don't vote!

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 10 Perform

I still haven't watched the new True Blood from this week. FML

It's. Your. Top. Ten. Not gonna lie, I almost didn't even want to watch until the Top 10, because this is when the good stuff starts. And no more judges power! Yay!

Cat Deely is an Amazon Goddess. I'm still not over how perfect she is.

They do group numbers now? Have they always done that? Are we supposed to judge them on these group numbers? I'm not going to write about them, because I'm lazy. Ok, well actually, I will say that this Bollywood number was pretty cool. Why does Kayla still bug me though? She's the only girl left who I don't really like. Why are the judges judging this right now? OMG I like this show, but jeez does it have a lot of filler. Whoa why am I being such a bitch tonight? I'm sorry. Nigel, stop being creepy.

Kayla and Evan - Vienesse Waltz: Oh fuck. Evan, you are paired with my least favorite dancer. LOL at the height difference. This is kind of hilarious.
Hell yeah, "Kiss From A Rose"! Aw, that was nice. Very smooth. They had some really cool lifts in there. OMG Kayla's wearing flats and Evan's wearing lifts. That's hilarious.

Brandon - Solo: This guy is amazing. He has so much power when he dances. I really like him.

Janette and Ade - Hip-Hop: Oooh this could be a really good pairing.
Really really cool. I loved the beginning with him "funking" her up. I thought they weren't synchronized very well sometimes and Ade was better than Janette, but it was really really fun to watch. Dear lord I hate the judges. I just...do not have time for this shit right now. Does anyone who watches this show like the judges? Anyone?

Randi - Solo: I've always liked Randi. She's cute. And she danced her solo well. Yay Randi!

Kupono - Solo: Yes! This is why I like Kupono. Because he's different. He doesn't dance like anyone left. He's just like Mark! Maaaarrrrkkkk!!!! (No, I will never get over Mark)

Jeanine and Jason - Contemporary: I didn't watch Season 2, so I don't really know Travis, although I have heard of him. Jason, you are still my underdog favorite!
OMG they were beautiful! That routine was AWESOME! I loved the stuff with the necklace. Holy friggin crap that was amazing. Like, one of the best routines of the whole season, if not the best. Am I being too complementary? I don't even know. You guys, that was fucking awesome! Go look that shit up on YouTube or something. Goddamn.

Melissa - Solo: Love you, Melissa! She's a very graceful dancer. Beautiful.

Evan - Solo: Ah Evan! So presh! Evan sometimes struggles with other styles, but he's SO good in his own style. I love him.

Kayla - Solo: I said I'm not a huge fan of Kayla, but it's not because she's a bad dancer. She's actually a really really great dancer, and her solo was very good. She just kind of rubs me the wrong way, and she's been overpimped.

Kupono and Randi - Paso Doble: Oooh I really like these two seperately so I hope they're good together.
Whoa there Randi in a wig. This is intense. I feel like I'm going to have a seizure with this strobe light. Eh. Not the best. They were a little choppy. Did he purposely drop her at the end? Yeah, not so good. That makes me sad.

Ade - Solo: Have I mentioned lately that I love Ade? He's one of my favs. Him and Brandon dance very similarly though.

Jeanine - Solo: That was fine. I'm not crazy about Jeanine, but she is a good dancer I guess.

Jason- Solo: Heh, that was quirky! That's why I like him too! He's different and adorable and omg I think he's starting to become my favorite.

Melissa and Brandon - Broadway: I kind of still wish Melissa was with Ade.
Aquarius! This will always remind me of The 40 Year Old Virgin, heh. Whoo trippy! Ah this was so cool! I loved this. It was different and well-danced and awesome! Yay!

Janette - Solo: She's a good dancer. She doesn't realy excite me though, but yeah, she's good.

Guy's group dance number. They're doing an African dance. Oh Evan is going to be so awkward in this. Wow that was good. Loved it.

So, overall, I still cannot get over Jason and Jeanine's Contemporary. That was pure amazingness right there. Not sure who's going home, but I think Randi and Kupono had the worst routine of the night. I kind of don't want anyone to go home, heh.

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 12 Perform

I'm currently on pain killers. This review could prove interesting.

They're doing two routines tonight? Ugh this show is so long.

Melissa and Ade
Disco: Seriously, why disco? Why?
They're both really good and this routine is cool, but I don't particularly ever feel the need to watch disco, thanks. Holy crap, these lifts are insane! LOL she fell at the end. Aw, I love this couple. I want them to go really far!
Waltz: Very nice. I just find waltzes boring so I'm not like, crazy about it. Don't care though because I love these two a lot. They better make it into the top 10.

Kayla and Kupono
Contemporary: Uh oh, a Mia Michaels contemporary. This should be good. Kupono is amazing...I really like this guy.
Goosebumps. Wow. Just, wow. The choreography was awesome, but they also danced it absolutely perfectly.
Broadway: West Side Story! Oh hell yes! Is it just me or were they actually doing some of the steps from that West Side Story scene? I LOVED this so much! It could just be because West Side Story is one of my favorite movies of all time, but I really thought this was a nice routine. Shut up, Nigel! I'm um, disagreeing with the judges here. I guess I don't know what I'm talking about.

Caitlin and Jason
Foxtrot: They were good, but kind of boring. And I can't really blame them, but the style they chose. I always think that Jason is better than Caitlin.
Lyrical Jazz: These two are incredibly synchronized, and I really liked this. Very smooth and pretty. Kind of boring again though.

Phillip and Jeanine
Russian folk: Ummmmm...it's cool that they keep adding new dances to this show, but uh, this was a hot mess. Phillip was not so good here, but I can't really blame him, because this is such a random, off-the-wall style. I didn't like that so much.
Jive: Much better than their first one. Jeanine is way better than Phillip. She was great this routine. The judges always give Phillip a pass for dancing poorly in styles that aren't his own. Why? I don't get it. *mumble*chosenones*mumble*

Randi and Evan
Hip-Hop: Aw, that was super cute. I love this couple! They just always look so happy all the time together. I love this kind of "nice and fluffy" hip-hop they sometimes do on this show.
Samba: No! I don't want them to be seperated! They're my favorite couple. Pasha! OMG Pasha! I freaking loved Pasha! He should have won his season...he's so dreamy.
Whoa that lift at the beginning was ridiculous. Aw, that was great! Ah see, Nigel criticized Evan for struggling out of his style, but didn't do the same for Phillip. I'm on to you Uncle Nigel...I know you learned how to judge from Simon Cowell.

Brandon and Jeanette
Argentine Tango: Sexy. Even if I found the routine a little boring, they both were fantastic in it. I think these two might be some of the best dancers left. Nigel gave them a slow clap. I love slow claps. Nigel has it in the bag for these two SO much.
Jazz: Wade! Yes!
Crap, I can't stop smiling! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! I'm turning into Mary Murphy! That was SO good! I love them! Best routine of the night!

Overall, like I said, Brandon and Jeanette's Jazz was the best of the night, but my second favorite was Kayla and Kupono's Contemporary. I think that Phillip and Jeanine could be in trouble because of that weird Russian dance they had to do, but I'm starting to get the feeling that Caitlin and Jason are not among the frontrunners on this show, and therefore if they wind up in the bottom will probably be going home. We shall see...

Things that are making me LOL

• AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com - An example:

• MyLifeIsAverage - Much funnier than FML. I have a really weird sense of humor

• ontd_ai - A cracktastic American Idol LJ community. This place is HYSTERICAL! I spend far too much time here than I should

• Kris Allen on Twitter - Follow him! He hasn't had it for too long, but he tweets pretty frequently and is absolutely adorable and kind of hilarious. He's also following Adam, Allison, Matt, and Anoop. Follow them too! (Yes, I did get a Twitter solely for the purpose of stalking Kris Allen. Don't judge me!)

Things that are not making me LOL:

• Vitolio and Karla got eliminated on So You Think You Can Dance. I don't really care that much about Karla, but VITOLIO! Vitolioooooooooooooo!!!!!! I will miss his dorky enthusiasm! (we were so close to getting rid of 2 of my 3 least favs, Kayla, Phillip, and Jeanine, too!)

• I can't believe I'm saying this, but why do I have to wait until August 26th for the American Idol Live Tour?! Especially because it's starting this Sunday (OMG SO EXCITED!) and I now know what Kris and Adam and Allison's sets entail and they're all going to be so awesome and I don't want to wait! God, I'm such a loser...
  

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 14 Perform

I was unable to watch last week's show, but I did see who was eliminated and I'm pissed. Actually I've been pissed the last 2 episodes with who's gone home. Granted, I do like a large amount of people left, but the one's who I don't like keep staying around :( How could they deprive me of the awesome Max and adorable Jonathan? Sigh. This is why I hate giving the judges so much power.

Whatevs, I'm over it...

I can't tell any of the girls apart. I don't know what this says about me...Ok, yeah, I know exactly what it says about me, heh.

Mia Michaels is such a crazy bitch! I think I kind of love her.

Janette and Brandon - Cha Cha: So much filler, oh lord. Why am I not Tivoing this? I love this latin ballroom choreographer. I don't remember his name, but I love him.
Loved. This. Performance. Holy crap that was so good! That was so good, Nigel is turning into Mary right now, heh. This couple is kind of amazing. OMG Brandon is crying...dammit now I feel like crying! THIS WHOLE THING IS SO FREAKING EMOTIONAL! I need to go like, calm down right now or something, hot damn, heh.

Kayla and Kupono - Contemporary: I loved Ashley and Max :( Kupono is adorable! I like him so much. Sonya's choreographed a routine about vampires. I am not surprised by this fact.
Weird, but cool. They are both really really good dancers. I loved all the synchronized parts. Don't mention Twilight, Nigel. Oh hey, the mentioned Mark! Love!

Randi and Evan - Broadway: Yay most adorable couple! Whoa...I missed the butt dance last week. That strangely makes me dissapointed. This choreographer is really tall.
Ooooh, I really liked this. It was different and made me smile. Aw, why are they getting down on Evan? I thought he did great. I'm really disagreeing with the judges here. Hm...

Jason and Caitlin - Pop Jazz: Aw poor Caitlin and Jason being in the bottom so much. I've always liked Jason, but I'm still making up my mind about Caitlin. Yes! Aliens! I love the weird ass routines they do on this show!
Whoa. Just...whoa. That was SO weird, but...awesome! So cool. I loved it. Nigel just said "dancing condom". I...have no comment for that, heh.

Phillip and Jeanine - Hip-Hop: I don't know why, but I think they're my least favorite couple. Not that I dislike them or think they're bad or anything, they're just...my least favorite couple heh. I still like them though! Ooooh chained together...this has the potential to be really cool. Extra points for the Kanye song.
Cool! I liked this routine too! What's with all the double entendres this episode though, heh?

Melissa and Ade - Pas de deux: "What a difference Ade makes"? Really Nigel? Ack I like these two a lot.
Holy crap Melissa is amazing. Holy crap Ade is also kind of amazing. Aw my gawd they were really good. Just gorgeous. I LOVE these two!

~Charity interlude~ Random Katie Holmes is random. I knew there wasn't enough content for 2 full hours. This show enjoys filler. Inspirational filler, but filler nonetheless. Oh hey, Paula Abdul! I never thought I would say this, but I miss Paula...Debbie Allen is always so profound. She's a pretty cool lady. lol about noone being excited about Katie Holmes dancing. Since when has she been a dancer anyways? Did I miss something?

Karla and Vitolio - Quickstep: I think I'm in love with Vitolio. Oh hey Jonathan, you cutie pie! Aw, them replaying the "Falling Slowly" dance makes me so sad, because it was when I picked Jonathan and Karla as my underdog favorites. I miss Asuka too :( Anyhoo, moving on...
Whoa! Her dress just changed! How the hell? So cool! I thought they were both really good! Vitolio was kind of awesome here. OMG stop being so adorable, Vitolio!


Ok, so, did anyone realize that I said I liked every single one of these performances? heh. I'm too easy I guess. But seriously, this was a really really good show. I have to say though, when watching the recap at the end, I think my favorite was Janette and Brandon. But I liked everyone else too! Tomorrow night is going to be tough!

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 18 Perform

Yeah, we're blogging SYTYCD again.

I like Lil C. I've come to the realization that I like all of the guest judges, but none of the regular judges. Mary-hate is a given, but I've never really liked Uncle Nigel that much either. I always feel like he has an agenda. He's like Simon in a way. Damn Brits ;)

Randi and Evan - Jive: It certainly was fun, heh. It wasn't the greatest thing ever, but I liked it. Those two make an adorable couple.

Mellisa and Ade - Jazz: Sonya has done some of the weirdest yet coolest routines on this show. I love Ade! He is AWESOME! Mellisa I'm unsure about, I wasn't too impressed with her this routine. But Ade? Love.

Caitlin and Jason - Hip-hop: OMG Baby Jason dancing as Michael Jackson is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. So, I kind of loved that. Jason was so good. That flip Caitlin did toward the end was crazy, but I was way more impressed with Jason. Wow, ok, so apparently I'm a bad judge of dancing, because the judges hated this, heh.

Janette and Brandon - Disco: Brandon, I hate you for having that body and never working out. As for the routine? Ca-razy and super impressive, damn! They should, however, banish disco from this show and American Idol. Why would anyone want to relive disco? LOL Lil C is always so ~deep. I love him.

Asuka and Vitolio - Waltz: I don't know why I love these two, I just do. OMG Vitolio stop it with your tears! You're making me fall for you even more! Damn, I got chills watching that. Gorgeous. I've never seen judges cry as much as they do on this show.

Kayla and Max - Pop Jazz: I always think Max looks like he's going to be super serious and dour, but he actually seems like a sweetheart. I love him too. Geez, I love too many people on this show. What a cool routine. They were ridiculously synchronized. Something bothers me about Kayla. I think it's because the judges fawn all over her all the damn time. Hey, look at that, I guess I don't love everyone after all.

Karla and Jonathan - Contemporary: Why are you so adorable Jonathan? Like, I cannot even handle him, god damn. OMG Falling Slooooooooooowly! Shit, it's the original though. Which is still pretty awesome, but if it was the Kris version I think I would have died and then these two would have automatically become my favorite contestants and and...what is wrong with me? Ahem. Ok, the routine...wait a sec...Damn...I think they became two of my favorites regardless! That was SO good! That's it, I'm rooting for these two. You know I love me an underdog.

Jeanine and Phillip - Tango: Jeanine is weird. Phillip is kind of cute. That...was kind of a weird routine. It was sort of a slow tango. Jeanine was a lot better than Phillip though. There were good parts to it, but I didn't really love it. Hm, lots of Phillip pimping going on right now.

Kupono and Ashley - Hip-Hop: Kupono is one of my favs. I love the beginning of the routine with the shadow stuff. So cool. The rest of it I thought was fine. I think the judges are being a bit harsher this week than last week, but maybe it's just because overall the routines are not quite as good as they were last week.

I am so bad at making predictions for this show, so I'm not going to make a guess on who is going home. I did think the best of the night were Asuka & Vitolio and Karla & Jonathan. I did really like Kayla & Max and Janette & Brandon too though. Mary was also slightly less annoying, which was good. Let's hope she keeps that up.

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 20 Perform

So, I'm attempting the whole 'blog about So You Think You Can Dance while it's happening' thing. I'm...skeptical on how this is going to turn out. Only because, even though I'm not a singer, for American Idol I can at least tell relatively whether or not someone is singing well. With SYTYCD, I'm always just like, "wow, that looks cool!" with no actual idea whether or not a dancer is actually good or not, heh.
Also, I hate Mary. HATE HER. If you thought I hated Kara on American Idol, it is nothing compared to the hatred I feel for Mary Murphy. This could prove...distracting while trying to blog, heh.
I still do really like this show though and am excited that the finals are starting since I hate the audition shows. Still, I have no idea how this blog is going to turn out, heh.

It's starting:
Wait...is the SYTYCD set the same as the American Idol set? How have I never noticed that before?

I did watch a few of the auditions so I recognize some of these people, but I don't know any of their names. OMG there's so many of them, ugh. I'm never going to remember any of these people until like, the top 10.

Cat Deely is fucking awesome! I have a giant girl crush on her. I. Love. Her. Adam Shankman YES! I'm pretty sure he's my favorite judge. He's fabulous.

I forgot that I kind of don't like the format of this show. With the judges ultimately picking who stays or who goes out of the bottom 3. I don't like giving the judges that much power on any kind of reality show. /bitter

The whole choosing between the brothers thing last episode was so sad. I thought it was kind of cruel :/

Holy shit, this show is 2 hours?!

Jeanine and Phillip - Hip-Hop: Ok, SYTYCD fanatics, why do I recognize Phillip? Has he auditioned before? I feel like they've featured him before. I also feel like people who do hip-hop routines have an automatic advantage. Because who doesn't like hip-hop? Aw, that was good. He was a lot better than her though, but that's his style so it's expected. I liked it! Yay! Jeez, Mary acts drunker than Paula Abdul.

Asuka and Vitolio - Broadway: I like this couple because I like both their names. Oh...Vitolio has a sad story and an accent. He's going straight to the top 10 at least. That was cute. Again, I thought the guy was better. The judges are dissapointed and I kind of agree? It was kind of boring. Cute, but boring. I hope they make it through though because I like them.

Karla and Jonathan - Cha Cha: Jonathan is kind of ridiculously cute, hot damn. Jonathan, don't encourage Mary to scream for you! OMG "Poker Face"? Sweet! Oooh, I think I liked it. It was cool and different. Jesus H. Christ I hate Mary Murphy.

Randi and Evan - Jazz: Ok, Evan so has an advantage over everyone because of the brother thing. And dammit, I don't care, I love him! Look at his smile! OMFG HE'S FROM MICHIGAN?! Ok, yeah, he's my favorite. Damn you, Evan! Wow, so... I LOVED IT! Sexy. They were so good. Yay, favorite contestant!

Paris and Tony - Hip-Hop: Wow, Paris's story about her car crash is scary. That's great that she can still dance. That was a cool routine! I like the "hard hitting" hip-hop they do on this show. I think Paris was better, which is surprising because Tony is supposed to be the hip-hop guy. Eh, I don't think it was as bad as the judges said it was, but yeah, it wasn't amazing.

Caitlin and Jason - Bollywood: Ack Jason, you are adorable! Ooh, I like it when they do Bollywood. "Jai Ho"?! Fuck, yeah! Whoa, hello kiss at the end! I loved that! I'm just so impressed that they could do that! So awesome! Please do Bollywood every week!

Janette and Brandon - Foxtrot: Wow, why did the judges not like Brandon? He seems awesome. See, I always feel bad for the couples who get these kind of dances, because they're never going to be as exciting as the others. It was just nice. The ending was kind of awesome though. I really legitimately think Mary Murphy is drunk.

Ashley and Kupono - Jazz: Kupono's audition is one of the few that I remember, because he reminded me of Mark from last season. Actually, I think I read somewhere that he knows Mark maybe? Oh Mark. You were my absolute favorite and should of won last year! Bleeding Love is still one of the best routines this show has ever had. Also, here is a picture of Mark with Kris Allen. Yes. Anyhoo, Wade Robson does the weirdest routines. OMG this is so weird and cool! I thought they were both really good. Kupono, you are my other favorite contestant :)

Melissa and Ade - Contemporary: Melissa is 29 and old. I feel bad for dancers. I love Ade's hair. Damn, that was super impressive. They were SO good. Adam Shankman is crying.

Kayla and Max - Samba: Yes! A Russian ballroom dancer! There needs to be one every season. And he is super intense too. That was hot. I like these two. Adam Shankman makes being really really excited adorable. Mary Murphy makes being really really excited annoying and ridiculous. Ugh.

I'm not going to make any predictions about who's going to leave tomorrow because I have no effing idea.

I like this show. I think I will try and blog about it next week.
