can't believe that no one talked about Kent's "ideal woman" he chose his mom and Beyonce. GAY. Maybe he doesn't know yet?

Well, and they asked him right after Travis talked, and the camera work made it look like he was looking at Travis, and for a second I thought he was going to come out on nat'l television right off. I guess mom and Beyonce is the next closest thing.

I wish they wouldn't ask people that question.

I'm watching Hell's Kitchen because a local chef is on there (the one with the blue hair). So far he's managed to keep his head down and do his work without being Ramseyed. I've always wanted to try his place, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Couldn't we get, just for starters, JUST the new people? Before cluttering up the stage with the All Stars?? It made it hard to focus, sometimes.

This was my problem with the set-up, too. The newbies were getting lost in the numbers -- half the time they were positioned in the back, behind the all-stars, or just generally out of focus. Sometimes I could barely see Kent, and Jose was in the back of the line half the time. Shouldn't the point of the episode be to highlight the new batch of contestants and not the returning dancers?

I don't have a problem with the all-stars idea in theory, but I will miss seeing partnerships develop. If this had been the concept all along, we never would have had Brandon and Janette. And we'll miss out on those long-awaited pairings, like Jakob and Ellenore.

I agree. But they didn't have enough dancers to do small group dances by genre. One ballroom specialist, one hip hop dancer...so I guess they had to do this mix of oldtimers and new.

I just don't think the new format is going to work for me.

I wish they wouldn't ask people that question.

or if they asked it, ask who their ideal partner is. that allows them to answer the question romantically or as a dance partner.

I think that we all know that Kent is going to lose his virginity in the next 6 weeks. I just hope that he's gentle (Travis, I'm looking at you)

I liked the dual latin number (and not mad about shirtless Pasha).

Vortex,

hee hee. yes, a reworded question might work a lot better. I just cringe when someone says he is looking for a woman like his mother! Poor thing.

I just cringe when someone says he is looking for a woman like his mother!

I know, I just shook my head. And then when he screeched "or Beyonce!", I sighed a very big sigh.

or the Blessed Virgin Mary! Or Judy Garland! Or CHER! Yeah, CHER!

Or Lady Gaga!! Or RuPaul! ...wait...
