Those two together could have worked on something cute, but yeah, nsm here....
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

All of the couples except the paso doble were good and so were the solos.

Here's something I've been wondering: Presumably they have rehearsal time on their own after working with the choreographers, right? Do the dancers ever take out the hard stuff on their own, do you think?

Just once, can't they get Debbie Allen to say, "Here's where you start paying in sweat"?? Not that I don't love what she herself actually has to say, of course.

As much as I love Evan I think it's time for him and Randi to go. Everyone else brought their A games and I don't think these two have A games.

Ms. Debbie Allen! Whoop, whoop! It's about time.
I loved the Bollywood group number. Excellent. Jeanine was a stand out to me, but I agree everyone rocked it. Even Randi was moving those hips. Kayla was trying a little too hard, maybe, but that's the most I've liked her since the audition rounds. I agree with Debbie, I think top to bottom these five ladies trump other seasons.

the music was so much stronger than the dance. There was no passion, no strength. And if she was going to wear a wig, why didn't she wear one in her natural color? Stupid.

Kayla/Evan was not the train wreck I was expecting, but Mary was right that the work in closed hold was extremely lacking. Evan's footwork was labored and there was no glide. But the lifts were lovely and some of the side by side work was lovely. And Kayla was a lot more likeable this week with Evan than she ever was with either Maks or Pono. And she's such a beautiful dancer. The lines on that girl are fantastic.
Brandon's solo left me wanting more shades to his dancing. It was gorgeous and powerful with some great lifts and control in his movement, but I would like to see more softness from him every once in a while.

I missed the first half hour, so didn't get to see Kayla/Evan, or a few other things. Sad.
But I LOOOOOVED Peanut's choreography! And I really like Jeanine, more and more every week.
Not loving Kupono. I want him to be Mark and he's just not. Sad.
But I was reminded of why I liked Evan in the first place when he did his solo, which I thought was adorable and great. Sadly, I still rolled my eyes on seeing him in the boys group number, no matter what the judges said.
