The first thing I ever saw of Gordon Ramsey was an F word that he did with guest star of his mom. It was very sweet and disarming and I was all, why do people hate this sweet man who loves his mom? Hee.
SYTYCD: I am happy with the top 11 we got although I agree that they should have evened it out with the girls. I hate seeing so much contempo. (Jose is hiphop, though, so there is one.) And if you`re going to cast on genre, the tapper is not the one to do it for. I`m glad Alexie made it for the girls. I like all the boys but am so disappointed about Anthony.
It would be smart to study a secondary style and audition as that, which annoys me. I wonder how this format will play for the elims, especially since I think we have a much stronger male field than female. I guess you won`t have to eliminate evenly, and there won`t be the bad partner dragging someone down element.

OMG Pasha!
I am too busy looking at some of the all-stars in most of these routines.
I guess they're showcasing styles separately (?) but it seems weird that some of the new dancers are paired up and some are getting "solos".
I love Cat's dress. On *her* I should say, because I think I would look like ass in it, but man, those legs. Jesus.
Peanut is love. That is all.
Shirtless Pasha! I can quit watching live, now, and just what's on my DVR. Hee.
Oh, Billy and Alex, you are both so beautiful. You give me shivers and I don't want to see either of you leave, ever.

I second this, wholeheartedly!
I still think the all-stars thing is weird, because when I find myself watching them, I think, shit! Pay attention to the competitors! And yet, the show is doing what's done all along, I guess -- promoting dance, and hiring these kids to dance on the show is probably huge for them.
I am a little worried that the second half of the season will be all boys, because I really have much more of a feel for more of them.
It was fun to see the all-stars mixing it up with the newbies, but I think the contestants got lost in the crowd sometimes. Seems like the focus should have been on them more than on the all-stars. That said, I love to see everyone dance before the competition begins. Alex is like unto a god to me. Adechike looks promising, too. Oh, heck, they all look great.
Kathryn was one of my favorites last season, and it was extra cool to see her again. And Mark! And Ade! Love 'em.
I loved the opening group number, too. That was gorgeous.
