Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
KS: I have to ask one more So You Think You Can Dance question and then we'll go back to Dance Crew. Are you going to be judging this season or choreographing for the couples?
SS: No problem. Actually, no. I can't do anything visual. They can't show my face at all. If you noticed, when my choreography was done -- Give it up for Shane Sparks! And they didn't show me. Did you notice that?
Huh.

'Cause if you think about it, the first winner of So You Think You Can Dance, what did he do? You know what I mean?
It always makes me sad how much TPTB just crap all over S1. It's not like Benji has become a huge movie star or Sabra's in every other video out there. Nick has capitalized on winning SYTYCD as much as any of them have, teaching and choreographing and giving master classes and workshops at NYCDA, Jump, etc. Like most dancers do. These shows, whether it be ABDC or SYTYCD, are never going to create AI level stars. Dude, show S1 some love.
Heck, I even have love for S1 host Lauren Sanchez and eagerly await her turning up in about 5 more years on the latest VH-1 celeb reality train wreck and continuing that grand, Dunkelman-ian tradition.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yeah, I think Nick has said some unfortunate things since he won, but I liked S1 generally. I must admit, I think there is something about Nick though because we haven't seen him on the show very much at all while other dancers from that season have assisted choreographers, etc.
I have no hate on for Lauren Sanchez. And she could dance!

Sean, I'm watching it right now, and adorkable is definitely the right word.
ETA: OMG, the salt!

Yeah, S and I were a leeeetle bit alarmed at the amount of salt Chef Anne was throwing in her food.

I know that restaurants use a lot of salt, but it was still scary to see it. At least I know why I am always so thirsty and achy after I eat restaurant food. I'm very sensitive to too much salt.
Still, I might want to try to make bolognese the way she did, only with much less salt.

I've heard that he just turned into a divo bitch AND he talked a ton of shit about the show, and Benji in particular, during S2. Seems he and Travis were friends and he made it known that he thought Travis should've won. Unfortunate. Kinda like Tyra and Adrian from S1 ANTM.
