I was SO glad they got rid of Jonathan. But I was torn, because I really love Caitlin's solos, but just can't get behind her and Jason as a couple, so kinda wanted him to go because I want to see her with someone else. Ah well.
I loved the Brandon/Jeanette hip-hop, was pleased that Kupono and Kayla didn't suck as bad as I feared (though...ANOTHER barefoot waltz? WTF?) and enjoyed the faux-paso doble as spectacle, though not as any sort of actual paso doble. I felt like the Mia booty dance was fun, but Randi needed just a *touch* more ...something. Relaxation? Booty? Smirkiness? And Evan needed slightly smaller PJs.
And was Phillip sucking in the second half of his number due to the ripped pants? Or just because he was sucking?
I REALLY loved the Dmitri/NappyTab group dance--wish I could've watched it from more camera angles than I got, over and over, so much fun!
I just rewatched the Michael Jackson
American Idol.
Basically, the ones that I thought were worth hearing again were the final five, except switching out Alexis Grace for Danny Gokey. In keeping with the MJ theme, Alexis really was "gone too soon".
BTW, Kari from Mythbusters had a baby girl.
The Food Network Challenge that CJ and I saw live is now on rerun rotation. It is the Ice Age Challenge.
They don't show more than a couple of audience shots - none of either of us. But it was cool watching the show, there were lots of things going on that we didn't see/hear. Plus there was other stuff that seemed like a bigger deal when it was happening, but they glossed over it in editing.
Casting Call for the new Bravo reality show "Art Project."
I just can't imagine that show will do well. Art is so subjective. At least with fashion or food there are objective criteria like "does it fit" or "is it raw"

Oh yeah, I meant to ask you about this when I saw it over the weekend! I thought I remembered you mentioning Anna from Charm City Cakes competing as the lead....
Anna was absolutely adorable. And she did work on Sid for-ev-er.
Casting Call for the new Bravo reality show "Art Project."
...because we've all been crying out for a venue to showcase the whiniest "I'm an artiste - I don't sew/build/style/butcher!" divas from all their other shows?
Oh, yay, another reality show about divas.
Or, what Jessica just said.
In SYTYCD issues:
So, which dancers are going to suck tonight? Is Kayla going to do something to impress me? Is Nigel going to plotz over her no matter what she does? Is Ade going to show off his amazing body again (love that man's buns!!)? Is Phillip going to finally get a hip-hop routine, or is he going to disappoint yet again with another attempt at a different style? What will Cat wear?
These questions, and more, will be answered tonight!
