So, I had to Tivo this past week’s “So You Think You Can Dance”. Thank goodness for Tivo huh.

The show started with Danny being paired with Sara and dancing an Argentine Tango. They did some cool tricks including the “human pretzel” which was fun. Their second number was HipHop which I ususally love, but it didn’t work for me — Mary didn’t like it either. It felt a bit awkward. I suspect they’ll be in the bottom 2.

Then Dominic and Lauren performed a Krump which didn’t work for me. I didn’t feel any chemistry and it didn’t seem like they hit it hard enough. I was a little disappointed because ususally I love watching this type of dance. The second number was a Rumba. Lauren did a great job but Dominic didn’t do much for me personally in this dance. They’ll most likely be in the bottom 2.

Neil and Lacey were paired and did a Latin Jazz number. I liked it okay, but the judges didn’t seem to feel any chemistry. Mary mentioned to Lacey that she needed to pay attention to her partner and as they showed the replay it was obvious that the performance was lacking in that area. I was really excited for Neil and Lacey’s second number — a contemporary piece by Mia Michaels. The performance — wow! This is what the show is all about. It made me cry — very powerful — very beautiful — vulnerable — full of the beauty of dance. I loved it! It was REAL!

Sabra and Pasha were an interesting pairing. They did a Broadway number which I didn’t love. None of the first dances really did anything to touch me although I did feel like they all did a good job. Their second number was a Quickstep. I don’t see them as a pair and I thought it would be hard to follow Neil and Lacey’s emotionall number, but they did a good job. Sabra is delightful and genuine. I think she may actually beat out Lacey for the winning spot.

So my predictions for tonight are: Danny, Dominic and Sara, Lauren in the bottom 4 — and Dominic and Sara leaving.

I’m BACK!

I just watched the results show and can I just say “WHAT??? Neil in the bottom 2?” That was a huge surprise to me…

I did get Dominic and Sara going home, and Lauren in the bottom. But shocker that Neil was in the bottom group as well. I think he’ll still be around next week because his fans will have been shocked into trying to keep him in the competition. However, Danny has been growing on me (and probably other audience members), so maybe he’ll stay too.

My guess is that Pasha and Lauren will be next to go … (but that’s only a guess and anything can happen after this coming week’s show.) Stay tuned…
