Another reason I love SYTYCD is that unlike Idol I look forward to the results show and the group dances are always interesting.

I missed what they said about featuring different dance styles from around the world but I love this instead of listening to some musical act that is probably lip synched anyway.
oooh!! Amazing Tango! That was so awesome! Those spins and lifts.

If they don't keep Vitolio I will be very disappointed.
Scratch that, if they don't lose Tony I'll mock them thoroughly. He's just not very good.

I'm afraid Tony is going to be like..oh what was his name who kept staying around even though he was lesser and all his female partners kept getting voted off.

So Ryan and Paris are out and all the couples will stay for another week. Good gives them a chance to get more chemistry and get closer.

So, the couple who did the Tango? They were on that awful bad NBC show where the countries competed in dance. They have always been awesome, but that wasn't even their best tango routine that I've seen. I keep feeling like the man is the woman's student or something.

Tony and Paris are gone, just like I predicted after they announced the bottom three teams. Her routine in particular stank, and his had a lot of flash but no substance.

Oh, that's where I'd seen them before. I only watched afew episodes of the show before I gave up.
BTW, the song that Paris dances to "It Doesn't Hurt" is the one by my friend.

Cool.
Not surprised by the results, I think that's fine. I thought Vitolio's performance tonight was good, so I'm not too sure about what the judges are looking for in personality. They want him to be funny or something?
I think it's weird to have them knock her off saying it was partly because of her genre. Hey, man, you're the ones who cast all the contemporary dancers in the first place.
But I agree with the call. After them, I think Asuka & Johnathan's dances were both weak. I know it's hard for partner dancers to do solo work, but still. I think Asuka is doing too much posey posey with the sex kitten stuff and it's annoying and rings false. I do think she's cute and a good dancer, so I wish she's shed that skin pretty quickly.
The Argentine tango is so complex it's crazy. My putative partner would have to wear shin guards. I think you may be right about the teacher/pupil dynamic. I could see that being the case. Guy's hot, though.
