SYTYCD - Season 10 Ep. 9

I know I'm a little behind in getting this episode up, and in my defense I've been super busy these past few days and also I have to feel into it in order to really get into the episode. But here it is!

1. Oh this opening sequence is fun!

2. I love this music

3. Wait are they actually singing to it?

4. NIGEL IS DANCING WAHOO

5. I love these red shoes they're all wearing

6. Dang Jasmine went aaaalll out.

7. YEAH MALECE!

8. Cat is just my favorite. favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite.

8. Holey moley that baby is adorable

9. BATTLE COMMENCES

10. I like it when Wayne Brady judges, he's a boss

11. Wait what happened to her feet?I mean teeth. What happened to her teeth?

12. That beginning thing was weird, she didn't land it well.

13. She needs more energy in her feet

14. Ok his slide flip was super cool

15. That last kiss/push thing wasn't my favorite

16. Okay now I want cucumbers

17. This is why I love Wayne Brady

18. I feel like Mariah's face is plastic when she smiles like that

19. How does Cat even remember all of these numbers? I hope there's a prompter because that's crazy

20. Cat lover? I want to be her new best friend

21. What. This is not okay. Blind folds? Uuuuuhhhh

22. The whole world of eye related humor, and you choose "wait and see?"

23. She is so graceful I want to die

34. Oh my goodness my heart just crumbled

35. Wayne gets me. I never worried about them falling over, they were just perfect

36. Everything Wayne just said is how I feel. Why do I even bother doing this? He just said it all

37. Oh poor Nigel

38. Jasmine is even better than a butterfly. She's like as graceful as a cool summer breeze

39. Okay that was a weird comparison but whatever

40. Oh I dunno about this pairing....

41. I love story dancing

42. Okay I loved how they hit every pulse with a sharp movement, it was so synchronized and sharp I loved that

43. Jade did a lot better than I thought he would, it was super mature too

44. Just take everything that Wayne Brady says as my thoughts. Because we are synced

45. One point, I felt like this music and style of dance was just super different than the concept of the dance, the whole classic movie star story, and I don't think they pulled off the clashing concepts very well

46. Oh Tucker, Merman? You're amazingly nerdy and I love it

47. I think they're gonna be a super couple

48. Hahaha I love how dance teachers use funny sounds to describe what they're saying!

49. Team Tuna? Yeah I knew they were gonna be my favorite

50. THIS DANCE IS HOPPIN

51. How many times do I have to say that Wayne Brady is amazing? Basically every time probably

52. GO TEAM TUUUNNAAAAAAAAAAA

53. Cat is probably my favorite host of any show ever

54. I just like the name of this style.... afro jazz

55. Holy sexy. This dance is so animalistic and sexy

56. This is so Tarzan and Jane <3

57. "You have the motherland in you" - Wayne Brady everyone

58. Nigel knows what's up

59. NIGEL IS DOING WHAT!?

60. Nico is the hottest dancer on there

61. Oh Nico, boys have swag, men have class 

62. Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico Nico

63. I agree with Nigel though, it wasn't down and dirty like I wanted it to be

64. Did she just hit him in the face?

65. Love this song!

66. Love the use of the umbrella

67. They're certainly doing better than I thought they would, but I just don't feel like she's in character enough

68. Oh dear. Sonja. She scares me

69. She always does swampy, ugh it freaks me out

70. They obviously look like a power house couple, but I guess we'll see

71. Her splits at the end where amazing

72. "Man, you are a sexy cat"

73. "Jasmine, where were you when I was 20?"

74. I just died from laughing, holy cow. Wayne Brady

75. Nigel you old creepy man, talking about her legs....

76. CALLED IT. POWER COUPLE

77. Haha Cat says "H" like a British person; "Haysh"

78. Kiss of Death? You mean, Like a dementor? Daaaaaaaaaaang

79. CURTIS GET ON THAT

80. Holy Crow Curtis has got those sexy moves

81. OOh yes, it was stunning and smoking hot

82. I just love that in reality Haley and Curtis are super dorky in real life, but that dancing was amazing!

83. His lip smacking made me really happy

84. Cat just said it all

85. I've mention my love for Fiction before on this show right? Cause it's real

86. I don't even know how to think right now

87. I think Sonja is crying

88. Everyone got the chills Cat, don't worry

89. My heart is in his hands. My heart is in his hands. 

90. AAH WAYNE BRADY STOP

91. They are my favorite couple, they just are. It just is. 

92. NIGEL I UNDERSTAND YOUR SPEECHLESSNESS

93. Ugh I just love you Fiction

For the record, if I could vote I would vote for Tucker for the boy, and Jasmine H for the girl (H? I think it was Jasmine H... the girl who moves like the wind and has fantastically curly hair. That Jasmine)

Normally I would vote for Fiction, but I just think that he's super secure in the show right now, so I want to support some other dancer. And Tucker is definitely my second favorite.

TUNE IN NEXT WEEK FOR SOME MORE AMAZING DANCES OF THE NIGHT

SYTYCD - Season 10 Ep 8

This is happening! This is happening! It's happening! It's happening!

Welcome back! Sit down, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the reveal of the Top 20 on SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE!?

ps. I know you don't spell Friction like the actual writing subject, but it's the quicker way for me so I can get all all my thoughts out quickly... so deal with it.

1. Oh please stop. That double door entry was just so cheesy I was ashamed. 

2. THERE THEY ARE!

3. Why is that walk so long? Like, do they want you to be winded at the end of that walk? It's more like a small hike.

4. Why does Cat always look soooo stunning!? SPARKLE.

5. Girlfriend you are a disco ball of british awesomeness

6. Oh Adam

7. WAIT THAT'S WHY I JUST SAID. Adam and I are connected. Our spirits are aligned.

8. I want Cat's wardrobe. Just like, aaaaaaall of it. 

9. IF Fiction doesn't make it - I'm going to stop watching this show. It's over for me.

10. NIGEL YOU HAVE REDEEMED YOURSELF FOR EVERYTHING I'VE EVER HATED YOU FOR YOU GORGEOUS GORGEOUS MAN

11. I love how they all feel so happy for him, like, they appreciate that he got in. Not even thinking about themselves.

12. I don't remember what this guy does, Marcus? 

13. She's in - I'm calling it right now.

14. I cannot take my eyes off of Friction, like he is just beautiful in everything he does.

15. He is literally smoother than butter. He is the human butter.

16. Haha Cat has so much energy! I missed her so much!

17. That was good advice, he really needs that in order to get farther in the competition - because I really want him to get ahead.

18. Haha I love her, we are twins

19. Ok she is suuuch a cryer. Pretty much every time she's on camera she is crying

20. I wonder if they know how many people are already in?

21. Nico is so cute, what a hotty with a body

22. Oh I like that cute pairing thing at the end, Mackenzie is so gracefully adorable.

23. I like how the color scheme of the dance, black and white, plus the dresses are adorable

24. I think the slow-mo action at the end is a mixture of hilarious and beautiful

25. Ok now he's making me cry

26. MACKENZIE IS PERFECT. Adam  said it. It's official.

27. I swear Nigel has a foot fetish, he is obsessed.

28. She's so sassy I love it

29. Finally Nigel reads my mind

30. I think if Curtis starts weeping again I think I'm going to need a box of tissues

31. KNEW IT. I. KNEW. IT.

32. Haha Curtis, "for real!?" No, they're joking.

33. This poor guy, why do I get the feeling he's not going to make it

34. Yeah no. He's not making it

35. I hope he goes back, because he really is amazing

36. wait. what. 

37. This is fate. 

38. Ugh, that awkward hand things this girl does whenever she's tapping bothers me so much

39. I just want to tape her hand to her leg

40. Cat is just the best person ever at expressing what I'm thinking - I should just let her do all of my talking

41. Although I don't know how she wears those shoes the whole show, my feet would be crying

42. Cat has just reached a new level of perfection. Her outfit has pockets. YEEEEEEEEEES

43. Honestly I don't like either of the animators

44. "take a lap take a lap take a lap take a lap take a lap!"

45. Besides the creepy mannequins that were moving at the very end, that was probably the coolest dance they've ever had on this show.

46. oh. Mary. No Mary. Stop Mary.That was all wrong

47. Oh you charmer you

48. PLEASE LET MALESE IN. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. 

49. Oh please, please please please please please

50. I just think she is perfect

51. Chairs. Nice.

52. I could not even think during that whole dance. I was just mesmerized. 

53. And I love the fact that they were both crying because I was crying

54. Adam is so right, every time this choreographer does a dance I just end up so emotionally drained

55. I love happy news, it just makes me want to jump for joy!

56. Stop. Two brothers? That's just cruel. This is just miserable

57. Oh this is gonna be good

58. I loved that little switch partners thing

59. Oh Adam, you are always short and sweet

60. His hair. Holy crow I just want to cut it ALL off. EW CUT THAT RAT OFF OF YOUR HEAD

61. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH - that was a summary of what just happened between Nigel and Mary - oh my gosh they make me cry from laughter

62. Did I mention that Sonja scares me? Cause she reaaaaallyy scares me

63. Like what even was that. I dunno. It was just weird. Weird to the max.

64. "Amy you are AMAZING" - he just jumped like a little bobble doll, he really loves Amy!

65. Oh yes. This will be perfect.

66. STORY! I looooove story dancing

67. Wait do they actually have piles of sand?

68. Oh this music is epic to the max

69. I wish they were more synced, but it's their first dance... they'll get the hang of it

70. Christopher Scott you are a genius

71. "And when I die, I would like you to dance with my ashes like that" - I concur. 

72. Haha Nigel, Mary, and Adam are such children

73. OH YES THIS WILL BE FANTABULOUS

74. love the hands already

75. Oh they are sooooo synced it's amazing

76. Aaaaaaaand this song is so inappropriate - toooo much edginess

77. "I don't know, I'm just guessing, but I think you let them have it. You served it up." Oh Cat

78. Nigel sounds so disappointed 

79. Oh Nigel, staaahp. Noooooo

80. Her earrings look like banana's 

81. She is literally in my nightmares

82. I like the parenthesis (Epic Dub)

83. I needed to watch that dance 3 times before I fully comprehended the intenseness and grace of that piece - favorite Sonja piece EVER

84. Cat just called me gorgeous. Day made. 

Watching these guys go at it makes me super hungry.

Time to grab some grub...

SYTYCD, Season 10 Ep. 7

New Segment, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE COMMENTARY.

Yes. This is in fact happening.

There is a blog I really love that does a commentary on her favorite reality TV show, The Bachelor/The Bachelorette. I've tried to do the same kind of thing watching Psych episodes, but it doesn't give you the same feel. But I finally found a reality TV show I OBSESS over to make this new segment work!

Episodes to So You Think You Can Dance are every Tuesday night, the only problem is that I usually end up working at Jamba on Tuesdays, so my reviews will have to come out later than the episode. But I'm going to try my hardest to make this work because I love this idea! And this show! Seriously, I have cried, laughed, and danced with this show for a long time. It is the best competition on reality TV out there, I pinky promise.

So here goes!

1. OH MY GOSH THAT KNEE CRACK WAS TOO GRAPHIC. I basically just puked

2. I feel like packing for Vegas competition would be super hard. And did they really just get there after being on the plane for who knows how long?

3. Jason? Really? He doesn't even really dance. I hope he knows what he's talking about it.

3. Dang this first girl has great body movement. I wish I could flip like that!

4. I feel like it would be easier to go first, no one else to compare you too

5. Yeah Malese! I really like her, she's just too cute!

6. BED FLIP Shoot I'd be scared to break my neck

7. I want to see who they've been cutting...

8. WHAT!? That's his DAD!? Man his dad is sure a looker. Man dime!

9. I thought he was gonna get cut, I mean I feel really bad for him, but he didn't stand out to me with his dance moves.

10. I like her, she's super positive!

11. Wait. Fiction or Friction? 

12. oh. my. gosh. shut up. Don't holler while he's dancing!

13. He looks like he's walking on butter. Smooth melted butter.

14. TIPTOES, oh Nigel likes that

15. Standing! woot woot!

16. It IS Fiction! I feel like Friction would make more sense with the whole dance thing. But you know, whatever.

17. Lil Nasty. That's the way I like it

18. Tantrums? Will I be seeing tantrums soon? Fingers crossed

19. Is it bad to say that I didn't want crazy hair dude to go through

20. Mongolian bowl dancing lady did REALLY well, they better let her through for that

21. YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS

22. Sonja legitimately scares me. Partly because of her lip ring, and also just generally everything about her.

23. Blood. Sweat. Tears. Dying. -- can we all see why this so is scary good?

24. Armon. Noooooooo. What are you doing!?

25. Wait. No. NOT OKAY. Malese is my favorite!

26. I didn't know Hannah Simone was a dance enthusiast?

27. Wah Nigel!? That's only because Sonja is a crazy freak perfectionist weirdo!

28. Oh yeah, this is really good, that will be hard to beat

29. Wait he's so cuuuuuuute

30. Question, how do these girls wearing little bandeau bra's keep their boobs from falling out?

31. Girl please. I'm taller than basically every boy I've ever met. Get over it.

32. Oh they're awkward, I'd like it better if they were synced, but he's just flingy with his arms.

33. Wait it sounds like Nigel is gonna cry

34. Ok cocky

35. I really do like her, and she's totally beating herself up waaaay too much.

36. Oh come on girl! I wish I could call her right now and slap her silly, YOU CANNOT DROP OUT OF THIS COMPETITION

37. Oh dear, she sounds really timid right now

38. PLEASE DO WELL. PLEAAAASE GODS OF DANCE BLESS THEM WITH GOOD FORTUNE

39. This dance doesn't look so hard, they make it look soooooo easy

40. YES THANK YOU GODS OF DANCE

41. So why doesn't she look happy?

42. This just got sooo dramatic, and Nigel officially hates this poor guy

43. OH DEAR I LOVE HER SO MUCH.

44. I mean I can see that she wasn't going to get very far, but I'm really upset still because you can just tell she's one of the sweetest people in the world

45. Ok here comes this cocky dude. Seriously though that comment earlier just pissed me off

46. Also this music is uber weird

47. Crap he's getting through. They all love him.

48. YES BALLROOM. LETS GO LADIES

49. I love how a lot of dance is based off of chemistry. Like if you're chemistry is off it doesn't matter how good you are -- which can also kindof suck

50. I have a major hard crush on Fiction. I get butterflies every time he walks on the stage

51. Two all nighters!? Whaaaaaaaat this takes so much energy. I would die.

52. Doesn't anybody every sleep in the competition!? I mean, that's just basically what I do all day

53. He didn't say whether that was 5am or 5pm.... not cool

54. Boston - they better make this good for boston

55. That was just beautiful, you really know it's special and real when the dancers themselves are crying. They connect so well and everything was so fluid

56. It's going to be really hard to top that

57. Fiction is just so cute! Even when he claims to be grumpy

58. Oh that line-up was super weird

59. Agreed, it was a hooooot mess

60. I hope they let a couple dancer through. Not Derrick. I don't like Derrick.

61. If you don't love Fiction at this point, you are a messed up human being

62. Ok Mariia, the point of this is to dance. Get over yourself and dance the freaking dance

63. But really how much time did these individual interviews take? Cause that's probably a whole chunk of their practice time

64. Oh I like this beginning, the chairs was a REALLY good idea

65. That was genius, it all worked out perfectly!

66. Holy Crow all of these people are so good I don't think anyone is going to get cut. Ever.

67. That flip behind the group of dancers was messy, you couldn't get the full impact 

68. Wait wait wait wait wait. The SONG was juvenile, that's just how it was! Not fair

69. Daaaaaang he has aaaaabs

70. I hope Friction can pull this off. Because i love him.

71. Haha I love how dancers use weird sound effects to describe their moves tooooo funny!

72. I love Jennifer! CURLY HAIR UNITE! 

73. GET IT GIRL

74. NOOOOOOOO I loved her! I want to meet her in real life and give her a huge hug. One that just says, everything will be all right and I think you're amazing

75. That girl in pink was reaaaally going at it

76. Ok cocky dude ain't so cocky! So cocky

77. WHY DO THEY KEEP ON LETTING HIM DANCE FOR HIS LIFE

78. From what I saw, tapper Curtis was MUCH better than cocky dude.

79. He is having real issues right now

80. HOLY CRAP NIGEL THAT WAS NOT OKAY WITH ME YOU JERK. I HATE YOU SO MUCH 

81. I was legitimately crying right then

82. I still can't get over Nigel

83. I KNEW IT. FRICTION I AM YOUR BIGGEST FAN MARRY ME GOSH DARN IT

84. Nigel your tears will not make up for your previous actions.

85. NIGEL STOP BEING SUCH A BUSY BODY

86. That was not okay Nigel. not. okay.

87. Dang their battle faces were just tooo much battle

88. How do you even judge a winner from that? I don't even know

89. Ugh. I do NOT like Jade. GO AWAAAAAAY

90. Whaaaaat the heck is that skirt thing she is wearing

91. I don't get the feeling that he has a bad attitude, he seems like a really humble person. But then again edits take out sooo much it's so annoying

92. Party? What about sleeeeeep? Cause that's what I would be doing

In fact I think I'll go to sleep right now
