So You Think You Can Dance Top 10

Last Wednesday the top 10 Dancers took the stage minus Jessica plus Comfort. Turns out Jessica has some broken ribs and can't dance for 4 weeks. She will be missed.
But back to the performances... All the couples were split up and new couples formed. Each couple performed 2 routines and each dancer performed a solo.
Teaming up were Gev and Chelsea. They performed a contemporary routine choreographed by Sonya where they played the role of soul mates and how they feel when they are apart. They also did a Jive. I thought it was super fast and super fun to watch. The judges gave B-Boy Gev a hard time for this one and judge Lil'C thought Chelsea could make a manachin look good.
Will and Katee also were paired up, 2 of the best dancers so this has to work out. they performed a Broadway routine in a boat and another first for the contest, a Pas de Deux (Ballet). Both routines were done well and the Pas de Deux was thought to be the best routine ever on the show by the judges. katee was like little rubber girl.
Twitch and Comfort were paired up, what are the odds of two hip hoppers being paired to do Hip Hop. They also did a smooth waltz which was not good at all... Good thing they had the Hip Hop.
Another new couple was Joshua and Courtney. Courtney says the following about Joshua "he's a man"... after their Rumba routine. Joshua can move, that's for sure. They also did a hip hop routine, Courtney was the Bride of Frankenstein. Joshua killed it!!! It was probably the most fun routine to watch of the night!

Last, but not least, Kherington and Mark were paired up. They performed a country two-step. I think that even had they performed it well, it still would have bombed. Was not a fan at all. They also did a jazz routine to "canned heat" which i enjoyed. they werent given a story for this routine and Mark seemed to struggle with that, he does better with a character.

Results:
In this results show we saw 3 group routines. one for the whole group which was a bollywood routine, a contemporary routine for the girls choreographed by Mia, and a routine for the guys done by Nigel!!!!
We were also given the news that the show was nominated for Emmy's for dances as well as makeup. Very exciting.
Now on to the unhappy business... the dancers voted off were Gev and Kherington. Both will be missed. I especially will miss Gev, he was becoming a favorite. i think we ca now see the dancers who will make the finals forming, this is the first time i wanted to predict. i think we will see Will, Joshua, Chelsea and Katee make the finals.

So You Think You Can Dance- Breaking News!

So I am sitting on my couch watching House and a commercial comes on with a message to all fans of So You Think You Can Dance! Apparently Jessica is out of the competition due to an injury and Comfort is back to compete with the top 10. First, bummer, I really liked Jessica. Second, does Jessica still get to the compete with the top 10? I hope we find out Wednesday! I would be unfair, I think, if she didn't get that chance.

So You Think You Can Dance Top 12

Last Wednesday the top 12 dancers took to the stage. And I feel like more of the dancer's personality's are starting to come out!
The first couple to take the stage were Chelsie and Mark. Their first routine was an Alex Da Silva salsa routine which was very entertaining to watch and very hot! They had a very sexy night in fact. There second dance was a Broadway routine by Tyce Diorio done to "I'm A Woman". This was a sexy, bluesy number where Chelsie was the hot girl Mark was after. Both really committed to their characters!
The second couple was Comfort and Thayne. Their first dance was a Hip Hop routine by Tabitah and Napoleon. There wasn't any real connection between the two of them and they don't really add anything to their routines. Their second routine was a contemporary routine. They are my least favorite couple of the evening.
Jessica and Will were third. Their first dance was a very sensual contemporary routine set in the Garden of Eden and choreographed by Tyce. The judges finally complimented Jessica for her performance! Mary even thought this was one of the most amazing pieces ever done on the show! Their second dance was a Quickstep by Tony and Meredith. The most exciting part was the opening in which Will did a nice tumbling routine. Other than that it was pretty slow. The judges really were hard on Jessica for this one. Especially Mia. I thought she was down right mean. I definitely prefer when she choreographs because then we not only get to see her work, we also don't have to hear her critiques...
Next we had Courtney and Gev. Their first dance was a Cha Cha to "Don't Stop The Music" and was choreographed by two old favorites Pasha and Anya. It was really fast and fun to watch. And, best of all, Gev admitted on national television to shaving his chest. it was pretty entertaining and Gev is really becoming one of my favorites! Their next dance was a Mandy Moore jazz routine where they played the roll of people lost on safari and utilized a map. These two really had a wonderful night with two very entertaining routines!
Twitch and Kherington were the next couple to take to the stage. First, they did a crump by Lil C. It was really hard hitting and Kherington really did good with this one until she lost some steam towards the end. Next they did a Tango by Jean-Marc that was based on Mr and Mrs Smith. Didn't feel like there was much of a fight going on there. They didn't have their best night tonight and Kherington seemed a bit off. These two have been one of my favorite couples since the start and I hope they recover. I would hate to see either one go home.
The last couple of the night were Katee and Joshua. There first dance was a Viennese Waltz where Joshua was a "ghost" that Katee could feel but not see. I really enjoyed it and it had some very difficult lifts including the "snake". Katee was gorgeious in this one! There second dance was a first for the show. It was a bollywood routine (Indian culture). The only thing I didn't like about this number was that in ended. I could have watched it forever!!!

Results show:
The six dancers in danger were:
Comfort and Thayne
Twitch and Kherington
Jessica and Will

At this point I am thinking I will be pissed if Kherington or Twitch go home, but at the same time I was happy they were in the bottom three couples because their solos were amazing to watch! Twitch did a hip hop routine to a violin solo.
In the end, Comfort and Thayne were the two sent home. Now we have our top 10 and I like all of them! It will be so difficult to see any of them go home from here on out.

So You Think You Can Dance Top 14

Last Wednesday the top 14 dancers performed and this week brought about a wonderful change for fans of the show. Each couple performed 2 routines!
Jessica and Will were the first couple of the night. Their first dance was a Jive and this did it very well. Their 2nd dance was and amazing jazz choreographied by Mandy Moore done to Heart's "Alone", and a shirt was the center piece. This dance had passion written all over it, and Will was shirtless, and damn! I really wish the judges would stop be so hard on Jessica, I can't see what she is doing wrong and i think she did an amazing job in this number, it was one of the top ones for the night!
Comfort and Thayne were next, and this was thier first week dancing as a couple. Thier first dance was Broadway and their second dance was a very elegant smooth waltz.
Couple 3 was Kourtni and Matt. their first dance was a very dull Hip Hop number.
Thier second dance was a Mambo that I didn't enjoy very much at all.
Chelsie and Mark were to follow. Their first number was a Jazz routine choreographed by Mandy Moore. It was a fun and lighthearted dance. Thier second dance was a Foxtrot choreographed by Edward Simon.
The 5th couple of the night was the magnificant Twitchington. Their first dance was a Paso Doble that I thought was awesome!. Kherington looked ready to kick some booty! I enjoyed every moment of this dance, it was entertaining! Second, they danced a contemporary routine choreographed by Mia Michaels. This was a win win combination. You have Mia, Twitch, Kherington, and a bed. they told the story of a broken hearted Twitch and it was really good and believable.
Now we had Katee and Joshua, who don't know how to dissapoint. Their first dance was a contemporaty routine by Mia. It told the story of two people living their lives only focused on themselves. It was flawless, and they did some unbelievable moves, like the assisted run floating accross the stage. Love these two. Second came the West Coast Swing by Benji. It was entertaining and the costumes couldnt have been brighter. It is always a delight to have Benji make an appearance.
The last couple was Courtney and Gev. First they did a Hip Hop routine that i thought was okay. Courtney was more hard hitting than Gev I thought. Second they did a Broadway routine where they were tourists in New York. I didnt love this as much as the judges did, but it was a good routine.
It was a very satisfying evening!
Results.
This week Kourtni and Matt go home. I don't think this was a surprise. Neither of these dancers seemed to grow throughout their time on the show.
