"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Thanks for the recap, Jess. I couldn't make heads or tails of it when I went to the link either (I couldn't tell if something was missing, or I was just hating on that thread format).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The thread format is almost unreadable, but the answers had also all been deleted shortly after I posted the link. Sorry for the tease!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Damn, too bad about the delete. I was able to read it after you linked to it (thanks, Jess!)--I just hope that the guy who's a big TC fan whom I forwarded it to got to read it before it was zapped.

As for last night's dancing, yes, I did notice the big rack (hard not to!) and I agree, it was totally a floor routine, not a dance one. Loved seeing the burlesque dancer! And did you see how red Nigel was after her routine? Very funny.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

They totally didn't mention that it was Caitlin's sister back, right? I recognized her, but then thought maybe it was another random blonde. But no. Agree, still not impressed.

Also agree that Ivetta looked old. I wasn't at all impressed by her dancing until the spins, those were good. But yeah, I don't see her making it.

I thought maybe it was the makeup making her look plastic. Or maybe it's that she's got the classic Eastern European bone structure that plastic surgeons are all aiming for.

Anyway, I'm glad the audition rounds are over. I'm ready for Vegas.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought maybe it was the makeup making her look plastic. Or maybe it's that she's got the classic Eastern European bone structure that plastic surgeons are all aiming for.

It's like when I suddenly realized that Kimora Lee Simmons just naturally had the features a lot of people end up getting artificially.

I'm really surprised Natalie didn't come back. I was totally shocked when she got cut in Vegas last season, and thought maybe they were "saving her" for Season 6.

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

I heard that the producers never contacted her to ask her back. So that's why she won't be back this season.

Because books.

SYTYCD: Vegas is hard! They cut some good people.

I really like Ellenore, so far.

Oh, geez, I haven't learned the names of any of my favorites, yet! Which one is Ellenore, Amy?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I don't know why they keep talking acting surprised about the crumper. He told them that he'd been trained in other dance styles, but they want to act like he's some idiot savant
