Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

I think there were interesting other dances, Sonya's garden piece comes to mind. I'm happy that sappy waltz wasn't included.

ETA: Once again kat says it better than I ever could.

And a side note: What was up with Cat's hair last night. It screamed for a good brushing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wonder what the show submits for the Emmys -- it can't be every dance of the season.

Cat has needed a good hot oil treatment for a while now. I'm much more disturbed by her continued attempts to have a "Britney exiting the car" moment. Keep it covered down there.

I wonder what the show submits for the Emmys -- it can't be every dance of the season.

I definitely smell Nigel and Simon Fuller's sticky fingers all over these nominations. They consistently pimp NappyTab like they are broke and the rent is due tomorrow. And Nigel adored that Mia door dance, IIRC. And I think he'd love for one of the show's former dancers to pick up an Emmy. He could live off that for years. I would be surprised if they even submitted Desmond's piece being as he is not in the regular rotation of SYTYCD choreographers, and not that Desmond would even need it because he has more cred in the dance world in his pinky toe than Nigel will ever have even if SYTYCD was pulling AI numbers. It still bugs.

Oh, yeah, I remember when the judges were pimping the hell out of the Joshua tango as if he'd just invented it, and I was thinking "but the Mark tango earlier in the season was hot as hell, and I liked it!"

And watching Will, I'm getting all nostalgic for him. So pretty and good.

I don't remember some of the others, but it does make me want to re-watch...

Just saw an ad for the Fame remake and I think Kherington is in it. Did we know that?

Miss Debbie Allen as the principal! I hope she gets to say "And right here's where you start paying. In sweat." Also, Bebe Neuworth. (And Kelsey Grammar. Please don't let him dance.)

Is she wearing shoes?

Yes, Kherington is in the movie! EW had a small article about it.

Fashion Show:

His theme is "indigenous people wear western clothing"? The fuck?

Based on the designs, Anna should have this in the bag. I can't believe Jean-Paul is even still in this, even before the "theme".

Because books.

Yeah. I agree she didn't have a cohesive theme, but I did love a couple of those outfits.
