Because books.

I must have missed that, but I got when Nerdography came on. That was so great!

I need to learn all these other judges' names. Which of them stick around all season?

Thrive to spite them

Mary and Nigel are always the judges and the third judge rotates between teh different choreographers. Unless there are 2 choreographers then there are 4 judges but the 2 really count as 1 vote.

It makes it interesting in the judging.

Also the eliminations are different from American Idol. Unless they changed it this year the dancers are paired, the viewers vote for pairs and then the bottom 6 dancers (3 men and 3 women ) dance for their lives and the judges pick who to eliminate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel so bad for these kids. Up all night choreographing, and then Mia?

Yeah

So this guy Tony was he the tap dancer? I've totally lost who some of these people are. What about the female twins that competed together? Have they been cut?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Tony was the tapper. Odds the charming strapping white boy doesn't make it? I'm guessing slim. Actually, he reminds me of my high school boyfriend Tony, except with dancing and crying instead of boxing and anger management issues.

No sign of those twins, as far as I've noticed.

I really don't understand modelling -- I didn't think Jonathan's final runways were so good! And I thought Branden was excellent.

Because books.

I am SO happy. I do wish Jonathan could have won the money, but I love Branden winning. If Cory does it right, he can mold him into something awesome. Yay!

I definitely came around to team Branden. Yay!

Oh, I love SYTYCD more than my luggage. It's so weird being on time delay, though.

Alex Wong. That is all. He is my total new dance crush. Amazing. And Brandon Bryant and Mini-Gene Kelly were turning it out on that NappyTab hip hop. This makes me very, very happy.

Also making me happy? Ms. Debbie Allen telling some dancer what a huge disappointment she is to her. Oh, you do not disappoint Ms. Allen. I hope that dancer was not Gabby because I kind of loved her first audition.
