Ahh the “yumba”. I liked it, only because Lauren was just so hott there ahh, I need another shot of Chivas over the rocks. The kiss made me feel like puking since I thought it was too much, and I don’t think Dom is a good looking guy compared to her previous partners. And I’m glad Lauren backed off from another hit from Dom, eww. I agree with Ducky.

The “joodjes” shan’t be able to say negatives about the dance since its about Mia and her dad, but they need a wake up call. Millions of people have lost their parents at a young age and is living in terrible conditions, while she wants to tell a story, a boring one. It was definately the worst dance of the show ever, yet. Lacey’s solo yesterday was simply about walking and some kicks, a little flirtatious acts and I think that’s what a solo’s definition is to her, bad. Everything was simply forgettable. I’m glad my favourite dancer however didn’t strip down and danced an okay number, but still everyone sucked. Pasha’s smile creeps me out, maybe because his teeth have a gap or it’s not as white as Lauren’s, well I think it was a forced smile. He needs to take lessons from Lauren imo.

VOTE FOR LAUREN!!!

***What’s the obvious wierd thing about the top 8 picture? Pasha isnt showing is yellow gapped teeth***And Lauren’s lips are as red as beautiful roses and delicious apples.

Ducky, ditto that. I shan’t be saying this but it’s just bullcrap both of Lacey and Neil’s dances. Neil went to drastic measures and needed votes by showing his not so sexy abs(Lauren’s is obviously the winner in the ab contest in this show haha), but got to dead bottom. Their first dance didnt appeal to me but I watched it. Their second dance was just terrible. And honestly they didn’t dance! Those we’re bollocks from the joodges, and obviously since it’s regarding Mia and her dad, the judges can’t be harsh so they just threw some crap there. Everyone loses their parents, even at a younger age, so grow up people! The “yumba” was sexy, I thought Lauren brought it’s hotness level fiery hot burning to extreme levels, hotter than the hot tamali train, but it’s Dom, I don’t think he’s the best looking guy and uhh, they kissed, ugh, it made me feel like puking, Dom got turned on, but thank god she resisted. The rest of the dances were forgettable. Pasha was the worst with his fake smile.

***Look at the picture on top. See something? Pasha. He’s not showing his not-so-white teeth…***

Thanks for linking to all the videos! I’m visiting my sister this week, and she accidentally deleted the recording of last night’s show when we were in the middle of watching it! Your site saved our sanity!

I’m with Ducky and the other folks that didn’t get roped in by Mia Michaels’s routine. It was boring! If you take away Mia’s crying during her explanation of the routine, the critiques of the dance would’ve been different (imo). No one wants to be the person saying “that routine about you and your dead relative bored me and lacked substance.”

My opinions on the dancers at this point: Danny has come into his own, and is extremely impressive. Neil is good, but I don’t think he’s good enough. Pasha is great…at ballroom. And, Dom is…going home tonight. Of the top 8, Danny is the top guy to me.

As for the women: If Lacey didn’t have her rabid fanbase and that “emotional” Mia routine, she’d probably go home next week, but I think her and the amazing Sabra will be the last two women standing. Lauren, as hot as her second performance was, is probably going home tonight–and Sarah next week. Unlike the guys, I think all the girls are spectacular at this point of the competition.

Thank you so much for this incredible recap. I missed the show last night and have no TiVo or DVR to speak of (I know, I should be living in the stone age).

This was just as good as seeing it when it aired since you provided links or posted all the performances. I don’t need all the background stuff, it’s just there to fill in time so they can make the show 1 1/2 hours long. Just give me the meat, that’s all I need. Thanks for serving it up.

Solid show all around from all the dancers, which makes it hard to decide on who should go. And I really enjoy your recaps GMMR, since I generally agree with your comments and could tell that you’re REALLY into the show.
Now I hope that next week Danny would be partnered with Sabra and they do a contemporary routine that would play up both of their strengths. That could be a moment of pure beautiful dancing.

I know this is blasphemy but I have to agree with Ducky on the routine. I guess I was expecting so much more…definately not on the same level as the bench dance.

Oh, and Go Pasha!

I just don’t understand the Neil love – I don’t find him the least bit attractive. But, to each their own I guess. I like Pasha a lot, but I don’t know why he doesn’t get critiqued WAY more. He’s too stiff in anything out of ballroom. It’s a little awkward for me.
Sabra is also my girl to win the whole thing.

I predict Sabra, Lacey and Neil to be in the final 3 (though I’ve been underwhelmed with the latter two as of late). I don’t know who the other final guy will be though.

Ducky – In the words of Paula Abdul, you are a cold hearted snake!!

Ha ha. I LOVED the dance. But I will give a little and say that the combination of cold medicine and lack of sleep may have made me a wee emotional, but it was still solid.

Hey Kath!
Thought about you while watching (at 2:30AM because I’m still on San Diego time and could not force myself to sleep!) and wondered what you thought. Shankman is a good judge – he gives technical pointers, but he is longwinded, for sure. I’m with you – I think it’ll be Dom and Lauren tonight, too! As long as it isn’t Neil or Pasha, I’m cool with it! -AMRIE

Can you just IMAGINE if it was neil and sabra doing that routine? She is just such a beautiful contemporary dancer that I don’t think i would have been able to handle it. I’m really proud of both neil and lacey though, it was beautiful. Neil was really worried about what Mia thought about it afterwards, he kept staring out into the audience to see the slightest bit of acceptance from her. It was quite touching.

On a totally off topic subject- GMMR you NEED to watch Rescue Me… holy poop! they better submit that episode for the emmys next year. All around goodness!

I don’t know Kath, I think the 3am haze of watching SYTYCD has you all emotional because I thought Mia’s dance was CRAP! It sucked. There was no dancing, there was a lot of moving around and acting but it was not dance and personally I thought it was a waste of a routine.

It had the exact opposite effect on me that it seems to have had on everyone else. I thought it was contrived and a little pompous if truth be told. Nowhere near on par with the Bench Dance and really, save it for you therapist Mia.

Wow, I’m a total bitch today!

Mia got to us all… lovely. I love Neil (wish someone else was his partner) But, I am all schwimmered out. Yeah, I was a Benji fan but Lacey gets on my last nerve. Mug, mug, pose, pose – yeah she can dance but right now I just don’t care.

Sabra’s my “gull” as Cat would say… I am as yet undecided on the boys. I am a fan of Neil definitely and I just think Danny dances like no one ever has ever IMO.

Yep I’m gonna go with Lauren and Dom as well. I don’t want to see my BF Pasha go. I just love him.

Mia had me bawling during Lacey and Neil’s routine. I just kept picturing when I’d see my grandfather in heaven, and I’d get on his feet and we’d dance like we used to.
