OK, changed to the non-HD channel, so I can see Nigel crying -- the dance was about cancer?? Do I need to seek it out, really?
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

It was very, very good. I don't blame Nigel for being speechless. I think I would have been, too.

I think even if you had turned it on and didn't know what it was about it still would take your breath away.
It was just beautiful and moving.

Because books.
It was really beautiful. And very well-danced. I think they deserved everything that was said, and Tyce even more so.
It didn't help that that song *always* makes me teary, too.

I didn't mean to be flip -- I was asking about the cancer just based on Melissa's headscarf, and I didn't think it was really true....

I really liked the Shane Sparks routine too. I do have a weakness for zombie dances but it was really fun.

Oh, I didn't think you were being, Jesse!
The zombie thing was AWESOME. Loved it. And it stood up nicely after the other, because it was a whole different tone.

ok, just watching the 2nd half now. SO here is the thing about Evan - BWAY IS MORE THAN THAT F'IN "Aw Shucks" face and pooped out hands. UGH! he has no variety.
That Brandon/Janine 2nd routine looked tough as hell and timing was not together a lot, but damn Brandon KILLED it I thought.

I was really distracted by her hair. she should have had a braid or something. It made her seem off on the routine because her hair moved faster than she did.

TOP CHEF MASTERS: Loved this group. Loved that the mutual respect was so prominent, and the lack of sabotage (the minor one of denial of fish aside). Really sorry that these guys hadn't been spread out through the season, as I think they all could have won at some point, and there was usually at least one person in the other rounds i didn't like.
