Another week of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, another week of the SYTYCD podcast!

With only 6 couples left to perform, each pairing was given 2 dances to master. Some rose to the occasion, some crashed and burned under the pressure but one thing remained consistent… the Judges are out of their minds and way off base this season.

Kath and Dan recap each of the 12 routines, comment on the lack of criticism from the Judges, risk another late night Police raid and flip out over having Wade & Mia choreography in a single episode!

Find out who we think should make the Top 10 for Season 5, the injustice that’s surely upon one of the male dancers and even GLEE(k) out over the newest McKinley High Glee Club promo.

Sit back and take it all in kids, we’ve got plenty to say this week! Thanks again for listening and if you like what we’re doing, please tell a friend.

So You Think You Can Dance winds down this week and at last night’s taping of the Finale performance episode, it looks like things went a little different than they normally do. From what I can cull together online, they did multiple tapings and each one had different segments that would fit into both the Wed and Thur episodes.

Everything I’ve been able to get my dirty little spoiler hungry hands on is listed after the jump… (more…)

Holy Crap, this just made me wet myself. And I do believe that is My BF Travis Wall in there somewhere. Who else do we spot? Any other So You Think You Can Dance-ers?

I still hate Dancing with the Stars but… Oh and that fake crowd noise is ridiculous.

The Creative Emmy Awards were handed out this weekend and there are some goodies to be announced!

Friday Night Lights and Ugly Betty won Best Casting (Drama, Comedy respectively)

Elaine Stritch won Best Guest Star for her genius stint as Alec Baldwin’s Mother on NBC’s 30 Rock

How I Met Your Mother won for Best Art Direction (god I hope for the episode where Lily moved into that small ass apartment)

The Office won for Best Single-Camera Editing Comedy

Dexter won for Best Single-Camera Editing Drama

Somehow it looks like both Wade Robson and Mia Michaels won Emmy’s for Best Choreography for Season 2 of So You Think You Can Dance. I don’t understand how multiple people won, but I like it!

SNL’s D*ck In a Box won for Best Music and Lyrics which is simply high-sterical!

The Prime-Time Emmy Awards are this coming Sunday and I cannot wait!

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE Season 3 Winner is…
SABRA JOHNSON!

Let’s rewind though shall we?

Before I get to writing this up I have to tell you all some shockingly bad news. I lost 45 minutes of the show tonight. Something happened with our power and from 8:33 to about 9:15 I missed SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE! A part of my soul is missing as well. Anyone who wants to fill me in step by step can in the comments section, help a brother out!

The show starts and Cat Deeley looks like a glorious Grecian Ostrich with her hair pulled back with the crown braid and that crazy poof of ruffles! She loves poof and she loves animal prints, so an Ostrich is actually semi-fitting for our beloved host.

The Top 20 are introduced in the order they were eliminated and the stage looks so insane with all of them there again! Everyone is in white and I’m having horrid nightmares of Idol’s All-White Angelic Charity Event Night(mare). I loved seeing everyone again because as the weeks go on and more happens, I actually tend to forget a face or two. Jessi looks really good, guess that heart of her’s is still holding out. Dominic and Sara got a huge response when they were shown and Pasha gave Lauren a version of the butt-bongos.

Then it was time for our Top 4 and it was glorious to see them up there, the envy of 16 others! Lacey Schwimmer, Neil Haskell, Sabra Johnson, and Danny Tidwell. This game is ON.

I feel like I was drugged, gang raped, and left in an alley in a pool of my own urine after watching the tour du force that was SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE’s Performance Finale tonight. It was two hours of dancing and awesomeness with extra awesome.

Can I make a confession though? I don’t know if I’m feeling overwhelmed or underwhelmed. I feel like so much happened yet nothing amazed me beyond belief and really, it left me feeling like this episode turned the whole competition on its ear and no one dancer has it in the bag.

Sabra seemed like the clear winner coming into tonight’s performance finale yet after the show ended I feel that she’s second if not third in line to win.

So who does that leave in the pole position? Get ready to call me a hypocrite and a late comer, but I have finally bought a ticket on the Hot Tamale Train with Danny Tidwell as Conductor and Lounge Act. *hides in shame and puts back to crowd with stones*

So I’ve received way too many emails from some of you asking me where the hell the So You Think You Can Dance spoilers are for this week’s Top 8 performance. I’m getting to it, y’all! I just got home yesterday from Comic-Con after what was an unbelievably fun but incredibly tiring experience and sleep is of major importance.

I hate to say it, but I haven’t even watched last weeks results show yet. Yes, I know that Kameron Bink and Jaimie Goodwin were given pink slips but apparently there was some controversy about the Wade Robson Peace dance. The contro shouldn’t be about the message, it should have been about forcing us to listen to that John Mayer song 10 times in a row. Someone should take the time to call about that instead of a peaceful dance number of hope. And Mia’s jacket? Who the hell cares. Come on folks, get serious. It’s Mia Frakkin’ Michaels wearing a shitty outfit, nothing more.

Anyhow, here are the couplings and routines for this week’s Top 8 Performance of So You Think You Can Dance.
(more…)

So You Think You Can Dance introduced us to the Top 10 this week and there was some hardcore dancing, some hardcore personalities, some hardcore dissing, and some hardcore overdoing of John Mayer.

Quickly because I leave for the airport in 6 hours and have to sleep at some point… I love having Mia back as a Judge! An Emmy nominated Judge at that! I was psyched to see Wade get his shot at choreographing this new twist in the show. All of the solo’s will be the exact same routine which gives us a chance to critique each dancers take on the choreography. I was psyched to see me some Neil in some tight polyester and I was psyched to just have the show on!

Lacey is one hot sexy ass lady. Her Mormon relatives must flip their lids to see her sex it up as she does. WOW can the girl command a stage. Working it out from front to back, there was nothing wrong with her performance. Flawless. Danny’s as well. She ate him alive, but the boy can move.

Neil and Sara were electric, energetic, and quite the disco duo! Those pants did not disappoint, I love Neil even more now! Hot Tamales!

Sabra and Kameron were good I thought. She was absolutely stunning to watch and he was better than he has been for weeks. I get that he’s still lacking something but you’ve got to hand it to the kid for trying! I still miss Sabra and Dominic together though, don’t you?

Dominic and Jaimie’s Viennese Waltz was soooo not what I expected. It was not the Viennese Waltz we’ve come to know and love. She is always stunning with her lines and all but this was hands down Dom’s worst week. Like Mia said, 1 bad week… not too shabby!

Lauren and Pasha were really good tonight, I hate to admit it. The whole transformers opening and close were incredible to watch and sooooo perfectly in sync. I still don’t like her though. She annoys me.

Remember how I said I was excited for Wade’s choreography? Yeah, it wasn’t his best and to then see it 10 times was a little, how do I say this… TOO FRAKKIN’ MUCH! If I had to hear John Mayer say he was waiting for that world to change one more time, I was going to turn on every light in the house, run every air conditioner and start dumping oil into the Boston Harbor. That world needed to END!

In theory it was a good try. I did like watching how each one was different. Of the girls, I thought Sara, Sabra, and Lacey were the best. Of the boys, Neil, Pasha, and Danny.

So who goes home and who stays? Ideally I want Lauren gone. I worry about Jaimie because her solo was weak and then getting stuck with Dom was not good for her this week. Over on the guys side, it’s gotta be Kameron right? Poor Kam Kam!

Oh and how funny that once again Cousin Heidi got NO LOVE AT ALL? Dmitry’s up there shaking his thang and there’s poor Cousin Heidi screaming LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, I’M ON TV AGAIN! Tragic.

Raise your hand if you wanted to KNOCK ON NEIL’S WOOD?

Ducky reader MELLIEMEL (hiding her real name for gangsta purposes I presume) was lucky enough to attend the taping of last night’s SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE Top 10 performances. As she promised last week, she’s bringing us all the scoop from inside the house!

MellieMel will spoil you, she’ll treat us, and she’ll make you laugh when we go ON SET WITH MELLIEMEL!

Wow, we’re into the Top 10 America! So You Think You Can Dance is heating up and its time for the pairings to get a little remix and its time for the dancers to show us what they have when they perform solos each week.

If you want to know the couplings and routines for this coming Wednesday night’s performance, they are revealed after the jump.

So You Think You Can Dance Announce The Top 10 Dancers!

Wow, tonight’s show was extremely hard to watch. I was a nervous mess from 9:40 on and as I type this I’m still a little jittery.

Here were the Bottom 3 Couples this week:
Danny Voldemort and Anya Garnis
Hok Konishi and Jaimie Goodwin
My BF Neil Haskell and Lauren Gottlieb

I was off by one couple but I did pretty well in my predictions based on the Top 12 Performances. I was sad to see the amazing Hok Konishi go, as well as Anya Garnis.

While the show has ended, I can’t help but wonder how the hell someone in particular is still in this competition. I’m sure you’re expecting me to say Voldemort, but that’s not it. It’s that shrew Lauren Gottlieb. While her solo tonight was pretty good, it stank of desperation (not Jaimie’s solo, thank you Nigel) and was a little too frantic and nervous for my liking.

Granted, I don’t love the girl and I guess I understand her staying and being more versatile than Anya but damn it hurt to see Anya go before Lauren. Did anyone else notice that she made way too much eye contact with the camera during the opening Jive number? She works a nerve.

There were moments of elation and hope when Voldemort was announced to be in the Bottom 3 but deep down I knew it was a crap vote to have him there. Based on this week’s performance, there was no way in hell he deserved to go but I still kind of wanted to see it happen.

I’m just 100% happy that I can breathe again knowing the My BF Neil Haskell has made it to the Top 10 SYTYCD Tour and that I’ll be able to molest attack meet him this fall. The boys damn cute and he’s fun and dorky and seriously that body is OOC! I heart him, as you know.

Glad they gave a shout-out to Emmy Nominees Wade Robson and Mia Michaels. They totes deserved it after those amazing routines.
