So You Think You Can Dance? Oh yeah? C'mere a minute!

Not sure I can ever fully get the head handstand into a vertical WTF that Gev did. Was he holding himself up backwards and vertically and then did a back handspring?

yea, that dude was sick. salud, Gev

I hope they don't bring Toni Basil back as a judge. If she mentions the word "street" again...

my friend and I were actually muting her last night....

so....Mark should be gone. That Will is gone is really sad....Will/Josh/Twitch should all still be alive. Mark has underperformed for weeks, which leads me to believe he's selling his semen for votes

omg. i missed last night and tonight. i can't believe will is gone!!!

maybe this is because mark is the sole teenybopper vote left?

Unfortunately I think Twitch and Joshua might split the vote next week, letting Mark slip into the top 4. Not that I have anything against him...in fact I really like him, but Will >>>>>>>>>>> Mark.

maybe this is because mark is the sole teenybopper vote left?
definitely

well, didn't Mark's face say it all? he was expecting to leave too!

okay wtf wau

Also why were they so COMPLETELY down on that foxtrot? While it wasn't the greatest foxtrot ever, it's not like it was EMBARRASSING...

ps Katee is still going to win, I think

Will channels JB and gets voted out -- well done, America!

normally America starts getting it right about this point on SYTYCD...the Will one makes no sense.

I tried voting and couldn't get through...for the entire two hours.

FIXED!1 fIXED!11 FIXEDEREDs!

OMG a routine set to "The Garden" by Mirah! So hot.

totally not feeling the twitch/chelsea hip hop.

I would've thought they were a lock for a final, now I'm not so sure.

I thought the hip hop routine was nice, but ultimately didn't go anywhere...but that's the fault of the choreographers, not Chelsea.

I voted for Chelsea as I thought she brought it and is the best of the remaining females. trying to vote for Josh but it's been bizzee.

btw, did the judges get a gag order on criticizing the choreography? last year by midseason they had complained about at least one number per episode and actually had to have a sit down with the choreographers to ask them to quit taking it easy on the dancers...

yay, got in...

I have to say I didn't miss Will tonight.

the only girl i would vote for, were i to vote (which i never have), would be katee. i'm kind of all for josh to win it atm.

I second the "Mirah, OMG!"

The jazz routine tonight was outstanding. I usually like Tabitha & Napoleon's hip hop but their routine was too much slapstick and not enough actual dancing, so it was hard to judge.

I cannot stand Chelsie; her solos are the same hip movement over and over. Certainly she can incorporate a new move in there after all this time?

all the girls solos were really boring.

predictions for tonight?

Third the Mirah woah! (I never thought that me and MFG would be on the same page with this show.)

I hope Courtney gets to stay, I think she's always done well in the partner dances.

"The Garden" is the 48th most popular download on Itunes right now. Woo for marketing!

I have no idea what's happening tonight.

Go Courtney!

Loved Mandy's group routine too.

hey look the right people finally went home! though i could have switched out twitch for mark.

well, I'm not really peeved by the choices, but I don't think Chelsea 'deserved' to go home other than the fact that somebody had to be eliminated.

her first number was amazing (it was Twitch that was off, not her)...second one, well, it was more the choreography that was lackluster than her, she did what she could with it.

as far as the solos, well...dancers need choreographers. I never particularly thought many of them were good freestylers.

all in all, I'm quite happy with the finale. should be entertaining as hell.

but Josh is going to win

and that is a good thing

wait i forget how does 4-person final work?

typically, they do two routines with a member of the opposite sex, and one routine with a member of the same sex, AND a solo

but they dance with both remaining members of the opposite sex...ie, they don't have the same partner all night.

Also a group routine with all four. Last year they had pretaped interviews with Cat too.

the sexyback routine a few years ago was solid.

overall, I think this season has been more consistent in quality than last year, but I don't know that it has had as many memorable moments for me. like the routines have all been, for the most part, GOOD, whereas last year the choreography was under scrutiny at times, but the best routines of last year >>>>>> best of this year for me.

her first number was amazing (it was Twitch that was off, not her)

Actually I got the same vibe from that dance that I got from Kherington when she was paired with Mark...basically that Chelsie had no faith in Twitch and decided to focus on looking good versus being a good partner.

Very happy with the top 4...surely either Katee or (more likely) Joshua will win it all.

the difference is that Kherington turned in a poor performance that particular time, whereas Chelsea lit it up. I kind of wrote the latter off to "Twitch, gotta keep up with ME!".

I think Josh will win, but I've been wrong two years in a row...thought Travis had it in season 2, and Danny last year

I really thought the squeeing 'boppers + Hawaii would manage to vote Mark into the top 4. (Watching the kidz and haters immolate themselves is always fun.) I guess that just teaches us not to deny the POWAZ of THE GRILLE.

If this doesn't come down to Katee vs. Joshua as the top two, I'd be surprised, though I've been underestimating Twitch's staying power for the latter half of the competition. (Rilly rilly rilly hope that the Twitch/Josh routine proves to be a siiiiick hip hop routine choreo'ed by Cicely & Olisa.)

BJO, I think this season has had its share of jawdropping highlights that are as memorable (and even moreso) than S3 in addition to having greater quality overall. No Wade Robson obviously detracts, but Katee and Joshua were total landlords over their performances. Plus, this season had Comfort. And as for the solos, come on, Twitch is a maestro.

I haven't been too impressed with Josh & Katee's solos, but they sure come alive in their partner work. I agree the winner will probably come down to the two of them.

Courtney seems more confident and energetic as the competition goes on. I guess that means she's getting the Lindy Hop next week.

How does the finale work, and how are the top 2 determined? There are four people going into next Wednesday's episode...when does 4 become 2?

4 becomes 2 halfway through Thursday, I think.

No one gets eliminated per se in the last week. They have a performance show in which they dance in different permutations (all four, then mixed pairs, then same sex pairs, then solos), and we vote. Then over the course of the results show, Cat (dressed in something scandalously ridiculous) reveals which dancer placed where in the votes, in (presumably) ascending order, until ONLY. ONE. REMAINS.

Plus, this season had Comfort

yea, but it overcame that....

seriously, though, she was about as useless as Season 3's Cedric

They're really running the kids into the ground this year! Joshua and Twitch hospitalized for dehydration.

This is probably the most abusive season yet in regards to pushing the contestants' bodies to the limits.

so i just got home and have missed the first hour. someone fill me in!

some really amazing routines tonight.

really goofy how they did the order though. made everybody dance like 3 times in a row and then gave em a break, tired the fuck out of Josh too.

I'd still say Josh or Katee should win, though that Russian number was phenom
