So it's the last performance episode of So You Think You Can Dance for this year. I'm sad it's over and I really am not sure who I want to win. Everyone was great! Unlike the judges, I liked the fox routine and the hip hop routine. And I loved the cha cha routine toward the end. Sometimes, I felt the energy was a little low... I actually thought more could've been done with the Danny/Neil pairing. There was too much posturing and not enough movement. And the lindy hop had great lifts and I still enjoyed it, but you could see some sloppiness in the steps that the judges just didn't call out.
So about winning...I expect that Sabre won't win even though I think she's been the most consistent and I really like her. Lacey kinda bugs me and her solos just aren't that good, but I think if a woman does win it will be her. I've grown to really like Neil. He's become a great performer and has become much more refined as time goes on. But I think I gotta give it to Danny. He's just so amazing and he's really come a long way in opening up. He hasn't been able to get some of the styles down as well as other people, but what he can do...damn. He's great.
So tune in tomorrow for the winner!
Oh, and on another note...I'm going to see the SYTYCD show in San Jose! Yippee! So excited!
I think not! These judges need their heads examined tonight.
Lauren needed to go weeks ago! And how they can say that one pretty good solo (not that great though IMO) can make up for weeks of mediocre dancing is beyond me. And she was one of my favorites! But she has not lived up to her potential, so how many shots are you supposed to give someone!? And I agreed with Wade last night when he said their musicality was better, but something left his brain from one night to the next, because it was not great like he said tonight. And it was not the routine or the goggles. They didn't have their timing spot on throughout the whole routine and they were not dancing together either. Those are my pet peeves, and those two dancers just don't have the musicality.
Whereas Anya has always felt the music, been on time and with her partner in almost every dance (hip hop routine excluded,) and has given great performances. Which is what the judges have been saying all along. So why isn't their voting consistent with their comments? I think they do favor Lauren for what she could do and not for what she's done, and that's not fair to all those who have been working their asses off and doing great all along. If Lauren's not outta there next week I'm gonna be really pissed!
And I am sad that Hok's gone, but I can see why. I actually think he's too good at what he does to be on the show. That guy does not have to be the jack of all dance trades because he's so fabulously entertaining and innovative. Just keep doing what you're doing Hok!
I love it because of this:

But why does Nigel have to be such a perv? Every time he judges, all he can talk about is how hot the women are. Stop perving on the women and start judging the dancing!
So You Think You Can Dance is back on and so much fun! I love it love it love it! Watching good dancing and fun dancing is just so enjoyable. Forget Dancing with the Stars - they don't know what they're doing and rarely even look like they're enjoying themselves. I'd rather see what I just witnessed - a big hip hop dancer doing swing and just giving it his all and being so entertaining at the same time. Makes me want to go out and dance and just have fun. I'm so glad it's back.
