Oh, I didn't know she was in Chicago right now. Well, she looked the part at least in that clip from the TV show. I suppose she'll do at least as well as RZ did in the movie. She couldn't dance either, but she managed to do a creditable Roxie.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

I am not going to be disappointed that kat apparently does not read my posts.
I have been blocked by kat!

More like kat is a skipper and a skimmer.
Or maybe my brain just did not want to absorb the image of "Joey Potter IS Roxie Hart!" Yes, more likely it was that.

Oh, that was a FUN routine to start out with! Evan and Randi are very well matched.

Because books.
They're already my favorite couple. I think they were great, and man, jive *is* fun. It's related to swing, I guess?
It's weird for me, not knowing ANYTHING about dance, to hear Mary and Nigel's criticisms, because wow, I did not pick up on any of that.

We have a new Gordon Ramsey's The F Word tonight. (I'm not sure how "new" it is - but it is, I believe, new to the USA.)

I picked up on it a little, but Evan is such a strong partner and their unison was so good I was willing to let the rest go.

Not happy with that Shane Sparks routine. I do think the dancers fell down on the job, but I don't think it was that strong a choreography job, either. I'm left with a big pile of meh.

Damn. Doriana pulled out all the stops on that disco routine! And Brandon and Jeanette did a great job with it. Wowza! The lifts!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah. I'm starting to get some stuff, but sometimes I'm still really surprised with what they come out with.
Not on that first Shane Sparks number, though. That was a hot mess all the way around.
