Yeah, I saw a tweet about that, and was very disappointed--often the group dances during results shows were some of my favorite dances!! Though I will not miss random performances by groups I've never heard of (ETA: not the guest dancers, which I usually liked, but the random pop stars)
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

The results shows were *really* padded, and the "dances for your life" a mix between brilliant (many of the hip-hop dancers) and pathetic (most of the female contemporary dancers). The Sing-Off managed to do a really good job without a results show...

Thrive to spite them
They need to get rid of the AMerican Idol results show too. That's a real waste of an hour.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
That's a real waste of an hour.
Not for the advertisers, unfortunately.

I rarely watch any results shows. SYTYCD more than others perhaps as long as I could fast forward and check if the guest dancers were at all interesting. Of course, I fast forward through much of the shows themselves too.

Me too. I don't care about the backstory or what the dancers' favorite movie is, or whatever.

Oh, wow, thanks for the heads up! I don't know what to expect from it, but it's got Mondo, yay!

Because books.
Oh, that was fun! I miss Tim and Heidi and Michael and Nina, but hey, Isaac Mizrahi doesn't suck. And the new model/host is lovely.
Also, THANK GOD to who went home.
