I just really hope that if they can change the rules for Brandon (and they should) they will also change them for Billy, even if that means they have to change them for Noelle.
Yes! Ohmigod! Someone's blondie bear's a twenty-question genius!

Oh, I didn't even think of Billy not being able to come back! That would be most unfair.

Billy never competed, so I don't think the rules covered him.

Thrive to spite them
I was wondering about Billy. What are they going to do? Bring him back next season and what -- just make a spot for him in the top 20 (so they'd be looking for 9 guys...) I don't know what would be fair and also where would Billy be in a year. If they go do the show in the fall again.
I can't believe Russell was in the bottom that was just insane. And he's solo was so amazing and a lot of the solos feel really ... panicky desperate "omigod I'm in the bottom ,flail, jump, um, spin..flail...um countdown? uh..pose!" and Russell's was more "THIS is why I'm in the top 20!"
Also I love Shankman as a judge.

SYTYCD: IF THEY KICKED RUSSELL OFF THE FIRST NIGHT THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN HELL TO PAY!
I would have boycotted the rest of the season and joined Twitter to send angry tweets to Nigel and Shankdaddy.
Why is disco still on this fucking show? 90% of the dancers think of it as "oldies", the way we think of calliope music. The only redeeming factor of it is that it's at least an even playing ground, because NOBODY DOES THAT SHIT.

Because books.
I think the disco is fun to watch! But I grew up with Saturday Night Live, so.

I like disco, but Nathan and Molli didn't nail this one. I liked their costumes, though.
(psst, do you mean Fever, Amy?)

I'm with Amy. I was one of those people who practiced my disco with all my buds out behind the student lounge and danced in discos with names like 2001 Oddessey on Friday and Saturday night. It's just fun! It has a place in my heart that nothing can surplant.
I will miss Billy, but we still have some excellent male dancers. I really haven't narrowed it down yet to who I like best, but I think right now I like Viktor, Jakob, Ryan, Russell and Philip.
The women I'm really not nuts about. I think Bianca's got potential. I like Karen, a lot. Much better than Ashleigh. Ellenore is someone to watch. Otherwise, I think most of them are very, very young and aren't really ready for this show. And Ashleigh is only good at looking hot. Her part in hers and Jakob's dance was mainly posing, he did all the work and danced rings around her. I seriously want her off that stage.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Top Model, anyone? Apparently these girls are too short to get passports....
