Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What I need to know from kat is exactly what was taped on Tuesday.

Nigel has admitted (at least one previous season) that the order in which people are excused in the final 4 show may not reflect the "real" rankings.

they have said that before, but Cat specifically said "the person in fourth place after last night's vote is..."

information libertarian

kat said she saw Shankman and Miss Debbie Allen on stage together, so that bit was taped.

Because books.

kat said she saw Shankman and Miss Debbie Allen on stage together, so that bit was taped.

Wait, why do you say that?

I was confused because she said it was the top eight, but weren't Melissa and Ade in the top eight? I couldn't figure out how they would have gotten back and changed quickly enough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But how many of the dances? Not all of them, I'm guessing, right?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

tiggy, but did Cat say "the person receiving the least amount of votes" - because that's the specific language that would convince me the rankings were accurate.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm very confused about what is actually live and what isn't.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

For sure...all the dances where BOTH members were not in the Top 4 were live.

Ethan's butt dance was live.

Other than that...I'm not altogether sure.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Well hell...I'm not sure I know even that much.

Am scrolling to the bottom to not read whatever's already been posted, as I watch the finale...

I am so going to watch "Fame", Kherington or no. Sigh. But I will also watch "Step Up 3D", so...what can I say? I'm a whore for dance movies.

I'm wondering what the requirements are for the judges choices. I mean, obviously there's some practical needs, in terms of you can't have all dances with Brandon, or whatever, and you probably need one with each of your top four, or something, and you don't want all ballroom or whatever, but...I also wonder how much is everything else. Like, if ANY of it is favorites of that judge at all. If one of the judges was like "but I love THIS ONE" does that count at all? Or does Nigel have certain ones picked out as "this must be in the finale" or what? (Would any of the judges be like "MUST HAVE RUSSIAN FOLK DANCE"? Hee!)

I am SO ANNOYED at the camera work--they just showed the Calle Ocho dance, which I loved originally, and half the time they were panning out so far there was more of the audience than there was of the dancers. YES, I want to see the whole stage, but I'd like it to be close enough to see the damn DANCING, I dont' care about the fans!

Lil C picked Jai Ho? Seriously? (OK, his reasoning is cool, but...i also gotta giggle secretly inside thinking he just didn't like any of the hiphop).

OK, 4th Place Kayla! Whew!

And 3rd place Evan!! YAY. Now I'm happy no matter the outcome.

ARRRRGH! I caught up on TiVo, and so I went to read Facebook during commercials...and got SPOILED!!! BOO, bad friends!

But YAY, Jeanine! :) (Why is Brandon all schlumpy dressed down, and she's in a fancy dress?)
