A lot of them this season seem more well-rounded to me. I think they should, really, since there is time between Vegas and the main show, right? Time to take at least some classes in other stuff, anyway.

And Joshua did say last week that he took ballet when they had the money for it.

He's done a lot more than just squeeze a few ballet classes in between football practice given what he busted out tonight. I actually don't mind. If you want to be successful on this show, you must be able to dance outside your own genre, so props to him. But I do think it's disengenuous on the show's part to keep playing the "no training" card, 'cause that dog won't hunt.

Kherington and Twitch – Ha! Kherington busting on Twitch’s fake glasses was funny stuff. Dammit, show. Stop trying to make me like my pre-hate contestants. Oh my god. It’s worse than the dead daddy dance. I hate when the show does this. And to frikkin’ Celine Dion? Oh, hell to the naw! What exactly made that a waltz? They just did a contemporary routine in place of a waltz. Hello, hatred, my old friend. Mia was right. Nigel needs to shut it. We know you want to sleep with her. She comes off as fake and plastic. (And here is the part where I’m distracted by Twitch’s abs) And is no one going to mention the missed lift at the end? Sigh. I feel like I watched a different routine. At least Nigel acknowledges that it was not, in fact, a Viennese Waltz.

Absolutely.

I liked parts of that last dance with Twitch and Kherington, but not all of it. Twitch really was the weak link there. He did better than I thought he would, but he's not there yet, by a long shot. Still, it had some very nice moves, it did call to my emotions, but it really wasn't that well danced. I'ma still vote for them because I have mad love for Twitch.

I hate krumping.

Sail is me. In the previous post, not the hate krumping one! The Twitch loving one!

My only problem with the Katee and Joshua number was the version of Godspell they used! And the cutting of the song, but duh.

I love Twitch too, and am distracted by how pretty Kherington is. I love that blonde with brown eyes look.

Absolutely this. I dearly love that song, but this version was decidedly meh.

Comfort and Chris – Comfort was on point. Chris tried to hang in there, but he kind of disappeared for me in that routine. The cameraman needs to be shot. I think this camera work may have been the worst of the night. Agreed that she really blew him away. And I think she brought it down for him, which is why she didn’t hit as hard as she could. And dear lord, I never ever want to see Nigel grab his crotch ever again. In truth, though, it wasn’t very good. And once again, a real downer routine to end on. There were better routines to close out the night.

B3

I think Chelsea and Thayne are in trouble. Hope they have strong solos to save themselves. Susie and Marquis are definitely bound for bottom three. Kourtni and Matt may be in trouble again this week with a Foxtrot that was just ok, not at all memorable. Could also be Gev and Courtney. They had a good performance (at least I thought so) but were buried in the middle of the pack and the judges didn't love it.

Top 3

Once again, I feel like Mark and Chelsie and Joshua and Katee were just far, far beyond the rest of the pack. Both of them were beautiful tonight. Even though I just said they might hit B3, I would actually put Gev and Courtney in my top three tonight. I just loved them and everything that they did. I thought Mandy’s choreography was beautiful and they danced so well together.

Going Home

I think Susie will say “Chaocito, Baby” this week. For the guys, it’s tough. If the B3 really are Thayne, Matt, and Marquis, I’d hate to see any of them go. I actually think Chris should go, so maybe Comfort and Chris will hit B3 (they’re routine certainly underwhelmed). But if it does come down to Thayne/Matt/Marquis, I think it’ll be another couple boot and Susie and Marquis will go home.

I enjoy Twitch, but I don't have mad love for him the way I do for Joshua. He owns my heart, with his tired perm, poor baby.

I gotta say, though, that for me the show is all about Mark right now. Love him!

TC Reunion - gotta love the Ho!Yay greatest hits. If a fan asks about "kitty butt face", I'm going to lose it completely.

OK - Crazy Andrew just won my undying affection with his "I kept hearing about ADD - I haven't played Advanced Dungeons & Dragons for years" joke.
