I was wondering, because that opening piece was fantastic ... and then I didn't see him anytime after. I don't see him being cut - he has technique but isn't strictly ballet.

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

sure Branden (however you spell it) improved, but I'm not one for giving a $1 Million cookie for most improved. I still don't care for his shots or his walk.

Again, I disagree somewhat. I thought he got some really good shots along the way (like the mirror shot), and that the last shots were pretty great. If I were looking for someone to make into a supermodel, I would go with Branden.

Vortex, I was talking about Alex Wong ... I think that's his name.

The TWOP people are saying that the ballet dancer is still in the final 16 guys.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

MMaSM: I realized at one point that I kinda didn't care who won, I liked all three. I think Sandhurst was a superior model in general, but he did flop near the end there, and I agree that his size may have played a big role in his not winning. I also agree that Jonathan will work, no problem. If he can figure out a way to pay the rent in the meanwhile. So I'm fine with Branden winning, really. Corey will be able to do a lot with him, I think.

SYTYCD: I love this show so much. And I already got the SO hooked on it just with last night's. I like to see him, as a musician, appreciating dance.

Anyway, love the Broadway brothers, love. Think the right blonde sister got cut. I agree in general that the people we're left with are mostly really good. Which is good to see in a competence reality show. There are a lot of people left that I really am looking forward to seeing dance.

Oh, and Cute Tony is Cute. But I don't think he'll make it. He just squeaked in as it is, I feel.

Did anyone see what happened to Sammy Ramirez (? not sure of the name) - the guy who had "hair choreogrphy"?

He got cut midway through choreography--he walked out with that huge smile on his face and I felt sad because he won't be smiling for us anymore.

Oh, hair choreo boy was adorable! But they did show him getting cut.

Because books.

MMaSM: I realized at one point that I kinda didn't care who won, I liked all three.

That was me. Last year, Perry turned into kind of an ass, and Holly was pretty (and I'm glad she won, and was also legitimately interested in fashion), but she wasn't the brightest bulb.

This year, all three guys were so nice! Good guys, all of them. And it was really fascinating to have a finale with three men, somehow. I also was really heartened at the way all three of them comforted Mountaha last week. Those are some nice boys.
