I think that Comfort's partner is dragging her down. I think that she did a good job tonight.

Loved Joshua and Katee, their routine was great and my GAWD, that ass and those thighs in the pants!!!!!

I think that it's not so much that I dislike the contemporary, it's that I dislike the music. I found Courtney and Matt interesting and visually pleasing.

SOMEONE PLEASE FIRE THE COSTUME DESIGNER. thank you.

Dear SYTYCD contestant with my name: Please stop sucking! It makes reading this thread a festival of unfun double-takes!

I really need to catch up on Shear Genius and 30 Days.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

SYTYCD: I loved Gev and Courtney's routine, but I was surprised no one called them on the opening few seconds, because I thought it was obvious that Gev clearly wasn't confortable/confident with the move, even though they pulled it off.

Like Vortex, I want Comfort to get a better partner, but the same goes for Chelsea.

I really liked the disco number. Unreasonably so, probably. Was I the only one who thought that maybe Jessica landed wrong/too hard in the death fall the judges commented on, and it threw her off for a second or two?

Mark in a suit is GUH.

I am still surprised by how much I like Katee and Chelsie. I expected to dislike them both, but I don't.

I expected to dislike Katee after her whining, but she's a good dancer.

i'm not really impressed with Jessica, but i totally said that when the judges were critiquing that particular section. Will definitely dropped the ball her too low.

i'm not sure i actually like Katee, but i adore Joshua. he makes the pairing for me.

I'm not a huge fan of Katee, the whinyness in Vegas turned me off. But she seriously kicked ass in that Samba. Joshua had some good moves, but she's the one I kept my eye on. Her feet just flew and she had that hip action agoing something fierce, I thought her dress was going to fly completely off of her a couple of times!

Yeah, after Vegas I just couldn't be a fan, but she keeps managing to hold her own each week, so I can't keep hating on her tooooo much. I want to. But I can't.

I was, however, very surprised when the straight guy in the room thought she was hot, last night (I was watching with my sister, four gay men, and one straight guy). I don't find her at all attractive. I mean, obviously nothing wrong with her body (what with all of them being dancers). Though then we rewinded and showed him the other half-there dress, and he agreed Courtney was darn hot too.

But I still prefer all the guys.

Actually, I realized last night that she has very unattractive legs (for a dancer). The more I looked at them, the more the proportions and shape just seemed all wrong. I guess I never noticed before because it's the first time she's been in a dress.

Huh. Now I'll have to look closer at her legs! I was mostly just looking at her face and not being impressed!
