We had the same reaction. Of course, we have some longstanding grudges against Swedes so it wasn't entirely surprising.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He's totally douchey, from what I hear -- a friend of a friend dated him for a while.

Hey!

Well, I'm only 1/4 Swede, so make that "H".

Nigel:

The All-Stars will NOT Choreograph. They will only dance in their own specific styles. Partners are of the opposite sex and change weekly.

The choreographers must be bored silly.

Well, that means that we'll probably get more Travis choreo, which is a win.

Ponderation about SYTCD all-stars: all the ballroom all-stars are Latin ballroom (I think?). Does this mean nobody will be tortured by the Quickstep this season? (Please? There's been one Quickstep that *ever* succeeded, IMO - Jakob and Ellenore.)

Pasha and Anya seem to be pegged for Latin and Standard Ballroom.

Website says there is one more male and one more female to be announced as All Stars. Guesses?

Yeah, I'd bet that Pasha and Anya will do double duty in both Latin and Standard. And I think they can handle it. Anya and Danny's Foxtrot is still one of the best of all times, and Pasha was actually not bad at all in his Quickstep with Sabra.

I think the last two all stars have got to be another contemporary boy and girl. I'd love for the girl to be Jeanine, but i don't think she's popular enough. For the boy, my first choice would be Danny, but he's not available for the summer - touring with the Bad Boys of Dance. Jakob, too, I believe, which is sad. And Travis is choreographing, which means he won't be dancing. So, I don't know. Maybe Brandon? Brandon would be fun.

Because books.

As someone who just got into SYTYCD in the last two seasons, this all-star thing is really confusing and off-putting. I don't want to watch people who were already on. I don't get it, at all.

as someone who's been watching since season two, this all star thing is confusing and off-putting, Amy. i'm interested to see how it will play out, but i think it will probably be a giant clusterfuck of people just voting for the all star that they love.
