That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Should Go Home: Mollee, Kevin
Will Go Home: Karen, Kevin

Yep and yep. That's my feeling as well.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I agree with just about everything y'all wrote. Did not get the love the judges had for the Nathan/Mollee routine, unless they are going for reverse psychology to lull the teeny-boppers into thinking all is ok and maybe getting them to throw votes elsewhere.

I could not get into the Victor/Channing and totally understood Shankman's comment about the music keeping him out of it. Also? found Tyce so so so annoying in the video of rehearsals. Dude, you are not a badass and hard, you put on thet over done accent shtick and it is old. shut it.

I love Ellenore and Kathryn and Russell and Jakob. I am ready for Mollee, Nathan, Channing, and Kevin to go.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Russell getting Foxtrot again is some bullshit.

That was totally supposed to me my third comment!

Yeah, I thought that the movement was really good, but the lyricality of the movement was lost with the music. It would have been better if there had been no music at all, because at least then you could have supplied your own.

I appreciate what McFerrin was trying to do with "Blackbird", but I concur: I think it was the wrong music for that particular routine.

I loved the music, it just wasn't good for a dance piece. The dancers were unfairly handicapped because Tasty wanted to be "edgy"

You will all appreciate my tragedy: Tivo got the first three dances, and then my mother changed the channel and watched some CSI or Law and Order type show (I was already in bed). I can't be angry at her, since she doesn't know about Tivo, and I didn't ask her not to watch TV or anything. I can, however, berate her terrible taste in television.

And then I tried to watch This Old House and got Spongebob instead. Ugh.

yeah you can. The tivo asked her if she wanted to stop recording to switch the channel, so there's no way that she didn't know that you were recording.

when i have guests in the house, I put the tivo on standby and make them use a regular remote. Saves a lot of hassle.

Kathryn was amazing. She murdered that piece.

Oh, yeah. As good as Legacy was, she was so much better, and completely sold it.

Loved the Travis piece--both Ellanore and Ryan were terrific in it! Also loved Russell and Noelle's foxtrot. She was beautiful and he was wonderfully controlled and actually looked like he was enjoying himself (I'm thinking of Kevin's look of fear last week).

Mollee and Nathan are both getting completely outdanced in this competition, and should be out soon if it weren't for those darn kids and their text messages.

You know, I want to like Channing, but I don't. I don't really know why. Same with Victor.

Mollee drives me nuts. I want her gone gone gone. Nathan doesn't bug as much as Mollee, but he can be gone, too, and that wouldn't bother me.

I adore Jakob and Russell. I also really like Ellenore, Kathryn, and Noelle. Ryan is growing on me.

I even like Ashleigh. There. I said it. I think she's gotten a lot better since her over-acted audition and I like her.
