Twitchie: Well, they really tried to sell it, but it wasn't all that good. Chelsie was ridiculous. I can't get over how amazing she is. The legs on that girl are insane. And she totally saved that kick over the head move and she saved that turn sequence where he totally dropped the hands. The hip action for Twitch was not where it should be.

Finally, Nigel calls out the feet on this girl. They are things of beauty.

Katee solo: I hated every little bit of that. Have generally not been impressed with her solo. She's a talented dancer but obviously not a choreographer.

Okay, I don't know if the costume department is insane or brilliant. As the dance was. I can't say if I liked it or not, but I sure was mesmerized!

Josh solo: Outstanding. Again, I say, fun. Loved the little booty shaking in the corner.

Mark/Courtney: Bow Wow Wow! Yay! I have liked her this season. So, I love Mark and I loved that dance. But for the first time, I saw what Mia was talking about with the technique. His toe point is not as refined as I might have liked. He kinda had the dead fish feet at points. And he fell out of that turn in the corner. That said, I totally didn't care. I thought the piece was amazing. They both really just sank their teeth into the characters and really went for it. Fierce.

That was beyond the hot tamale train. That was the fucking jalapeno rocket express. Wow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I don't know how Josh isn't America's Favorite Dancer. He's so charming, and then great, too!

But seriously, he HAS TRAINING.

Josh/Katee: Ok, I totally want that green dress Katee was wearing in rehearsal. OMG, bring it bitches! That was amaaaaaaaaaazing. Insanely good. Full on 100% commitment. Lovely lines. I was super entertained. I don't know. They're just really good together. And thank you, Show, for continuing to bring the shirtless hotness.

Courtney solo: I'm sorry, was that another recycled solo? Why do all the contempo girls look like they went to the same big box solo store and bought a couple of fouette turns in Aisle 5, a couple of grande jetes in Aisle 7 and threw in a little hair flipping on their way through check out? Bleagh.

Yes, he does! Why do they keep acting like he doesn't?

Yes! It's so obvious and we know they know it. The not-so-great and not-so-powerful Oznigel needs to go home.
