Ugh. You can say that the girls are dancing strong, not sexy, but dressing them in bras with bare midriffs and short shorts slutted it right up for you.

I think Lauren was 02?

And now she's with the medics! Christ.

I still voted for her, like 10 times. I hope it is nothing serious! If she goes, I'm rooting for Billy!

So let's see, no one got hurt this week, so let's make the kids do 3 dances. Bleagh.

I loved Toni on the panel during auditions, so here's hoping she brings the bitchery.

Kent and Anya doing Cha Cha? My First Kiss? Ummm . . . . No. Way too slow. His arms were weird and all over the place. The awful mugging and face pulling was back with a vengeance. There wasn't enough cha cha in the cha cha. The lift was wonky. No.

Also, I liked Master Chef last night. It was Idol-ish without being too Idol. And Gordon Ramsey was super cute.

I have very little excitement about new PR except for the one designer who dresses like Little Lord Fauntleroy. I hope he dresses like that every day, oh please, oh please, oh please, oh please.

Robert and Kathryn and Stacey and war all set to Heaven Is a Place on Earth. Who does Stacey think she is, Mandy Moore? Gah, Kathryn is so gorgeous. She's ridiculous. Robert is really bad at lifts. That one where he flipped Kathryn over his shoulder? Ugly. And this is overwrought, not emotional. Not a lot of dance content either. They keep trying to make this kid happen and he's just not going to happen. He's never there for me at all in the routine. I watched her the whole time.

Ade and Courtney and Jazz again? Well, Tasty does better with Jazz, I suppose. And Dizzy is also good. Too bad AdeChike is so damn boring. What the hell is Courtney wearing. It was cute choreo. Very stylized. I don't know how memorable that will be, but it was well danced. I didn't feel a ton of connection between the two of them. Good advice from Shankdaddy on release through the torso and back. I love when they actually bring critique about the dancing.

OMG Amanda, shut your fucking no-talent mouth!

Hey, I was idly googling Kelly Liken's name (from Top Chef DC) and she was on Iron Chef! She went up against the new dude and lost.

I like Kelly, but seriously, who said "no crying in the kitchen"?

I do not think that Alex stole Ed's pea puree (the idea of it, likely, and probably not even consciously.) I was flabbergasted that 90% of the polled people thought he did. People, please. Though I do not like Alex at all.

Lauren's solo was heaven minus the inappropriate toothy grin. So much control to do that front roll and come up off the ground without letting that leg touch down. Forget about it.

Yay. Marty Kudelka. I'm excited. I don't know the girl in the bowler hat, but she needs to take it off. For real. Jose and Comfort were very cute in the rehearsal. Try a Little Tenderness. Love this music choice. Y'all, he's just not a very good dancer. He's not hitting hard enough. He doesn't groove. He has no swag. This could be a good routine and it's just not working at all. I was bored and he was boring. He looked like a club dancer taking an open level hip hop class at his local studio. Hmm. I would've loved to have seen that with better dancers. Nigel was right, he wasn't crisp enough. His movements needed to be sharper and cleaner. Contrast his moves with Comfort,s and there's just no comparison.

Billy has fallen into a sameness in his solos that's tremendously boring. I think he is taking snippets of a single piece and doing different counts, but that approach is not working for me. I was surprised to find that I really liked Kent's solo. That was a differnt movement quality than he normally brings. Lots of control. Not quite as many tricks as normal. I enjoyed.

Allison and Lauren. This could be phenomenal. Sadly, they got Tyce Broadway. I don't know why this show feels that two girls must always dance Broadway. And Tyxe goes back to the Damn Yankees well. It's his new Chicago. What do the costumes have to do with the dance? They're both very good, but they don't match, so they're dancing side by side but not toghether. Lauren is really dragging ass. She's clearly struggling. You could almost see her lose steam about half way in.

I do not think that Alex stole Ed's pea puree (the idea of it, likely, and probably not even consciously.)

That was my take. And it's not like it'd be the first time someone forgot a key dish at the prep kitchen.
