I hope he can come back next season.

I already hate the Jakob/Ashleigh pairing. Wrong on every level. Why not Jakob/Ariana? That would've been heaven.

I thought Philip was really great just at the top of that Jive routine. He really had the feel of the dance and was down into the floor nicely. Channing was really tentative.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Jakob was great, Ashleigh was not.

That jive seemed really slow, but bits of it were really good.

Did anyone dance between Jakob/Ashleigh and Russell? There was breaking news about the Bay bridge.

It was a slow jive. I always go back to the Danny/Anya jive which for me is still the best jive ever on this show. They were moving it. And that lift, the feet on the back, roll through the legs? Painful.

Jakob was amazing in that routine. What I love about him, well, one of the many things that I love about him, is that there is intention in everything he does, even a simple pose. He's completely present in the dance. As Shankdaddy noted, he was put on this earth to dance.

Okay, I LOVE Glee, but using the cast version of Push it as music for SYTYCD? Seriously?

I have to say that I for the most part agreed with the judges on the Ariana/Peter hip hop. The beginning was quite strong. I really liked the slow pace. There was nice synchronization between the two, and there was connection. But once the faster pace started, Peter started hitting much harder than Ariana. And frankly, he outdanced her. I was impressed with him. He pulled some b-boy moves that I didn't know he had. But they really did seem like they were dancing two separate routines. It was fine, but it could've been really good, because it really was some of NappyTab's better choreography.

ETA: Agreed on the ridiculousness of using Push It for the Cha Cha. But then again, they have had some terrible music choices for ballroom historically on this show.
