Wait -- Nigel just called them NappyTabs. I didn't realize that was A Thing!

Isn't it a little early to bring in custom choreographers?? Not that that wasn't lovely, but.

And of course Carla and Vitolio get the quickstep...

Jesse,

I believe their web site is NappyTabs.

Ah, you are correct.

So far, I've loved every routine.

That was good, too!

I hate to say it, but I think one of the bottom three was Evan and Randi. The judges were right in saying that neither of them seemed to nail it the way they needed to, especially Evan. And the choreography wasn't a "tribute" to Bob Fosse, it was a direct rip-off of the Rich Man's Frug number, which pissed me off while I was watching.

And I didn't connect with the Alien Baby Hunt number either, but I'm not a fan of Caitlin at.all, so I was predisposed to dislike it from the start.

I will say that I finally got what everyone sees in Kayla tonight. She was very impressive, and definitely stood out from the other contemporary female dancers.

Loved (and voted for) the pas de deux and the quick step, and also loved Brandon and Jeannette's number.

I don't really know which are going to be the bottom three this week, which says a lot about the quality of tonight's show!

I call such tremendous amounts of BS on the "drawing" of the styles. I might just tweet Shankman and Lil'C about it. That said, I'd like to hear from some dancers if the quick step routine was super easy or if they were trying to throw those 2 under a bus and they failed.

Evan and Randi in bottom 3 is my guess, maybe Kayla and Kapouno(sp?) also simply because I can't remember the routine this quickly after. oh wait - it was Sonya, whom I normally love, but this nsm. um, other bottom 3, no clue. maybe the cha cha just because so many others were really good?

it is the second season in a row where, funny enough, a trained ballet dancer pulled the pas de deux. What a funny coincidence!

I'm calling bullshit.

I liked the recaps of what they’ve done so far. It put couples in perspective for me, to wit:

Janette & Brandon have been good every week. I still don’t love them, but I have to admit they have mad skillz. But, why have we had two cha-chas already? Have we gone through all of ballroom and latin?

Kayla & Kupono were much better as a couple this week, although I didn’t get “vampire” from the choreography. Still love Sonya’s style though.

Randi & Evan need to get ballroom or hip-hop. I know they got jive but that really played into their styles yet again. Still, I liked this routine more than most Broadway.

I liked the Alien dance, but Caitlin & Jason still leave me cold.

Polar bear! Phillip gets hip-hop? Between that and the pas de deux, I call bullshit. I can’t even comment on this one.

Loved the inclusion of ballet. A set-up, sure, but it’s only fair that Melissa gets to do her style at least once and point would be right out for the others. And Prokofiev’s R&J (well, the first two acts anyway) is one of the few pieces of 20th century concert music (along with Carmina Burana) that I can stand.

I liked the Quickstep. Just the fact that there was a concept. Pretty good couple. Vitolio has a decent frame, what is his style?

I’d love to see the bottom three be Randi & Evan, Caitlin & Jason, and Phillip & Jeanine, with any of them going home. Sadly, I don't think Phillip will be in the bottom three so, maybe, Karla & Vitolio will be there, in which case, I'd definitely want Caitlin and Jason to go home.
