Yes, I feel like I'm enjoying Comfort ever so much more than I did on her season. I don't recall if that's because of who she was partnered with, or what dances she had to do, or what, but she's awesome, now.
The guest judge kind of amused me--it made me wonder if there are random celebs out there going "I wanna be a judge! I love this show!!"
I have issues with Comfort's hair, because we have a really hard time seeing her face most of the time, and to me that's a big part of the expressiveness of the dancing.
Robert isn't very good either, I have to say.
He is also not a good partner, but in a different way. I don't see the trust, he's not there for his partner, in the sense that I fear for her safety during lifts and such. Adechike is there, but doesn't connect to his partner. It's as if he's doing his part and she's doing her part, but they aren't together.
I got to watch most of SYTYCD last night and one of the few things that stands out was the Adechike/Jose paso doble - I noticed Adechike got all the big jumps and tricky moves ... Jose looked really weak in contrast (yes, Jose should go).
here's a [link] to my favorite SYTYCD routines over the years.
I said this on LJ too, but that is AWESOME. Thank you for putting it together.
Ooh, thanks, tiggy!
I think Comfort was out early in her season -- with an injury, maybe?
I take it back: she was brought back in because of an injury, but was cut in week 7. [link]
Comfort was out on the early side, then came back when wossname (the one that looked like Ariel) got injured. She was Not Good in styles other than her own. I remember a painful waltz.
