Nick and Melody totally blew me away with their Disco routine! All those flips and lifts - it was amazing. My favorite routine of the entire competition - based on a 3.6 high degree of difficulty!

Yes, the only way I see Jamile in the final two, is if Nick and Blake split the vote, since they dance similar styles of music. Aren't Nick and Melody the friends of the comp? They knew each other before? They probably had some of those moves worked out before coming to the show.

Thoughts on the above messages: Paula Addul....WAS she supposed to choreograph?? Melody was friends with Craig, I believe, both jazz dancers together...but I think she also may have had another friend, not sure who. Disco routine was FAB!!!! I actually voted for Nick (I chose only one person to vote for; I wasn't actually going to vote because I had work I needed to do Wednesday night, but realized my voting would register as "viewership" so went ahead and hit redial with one hand while working on the computer/printer in between). I voted for Nick BECAUSE of the disco and because his was not the strongest solo--vs. Blake who had one of the strongest solos of the evening, and even of the season. STill think Jamile might win, because he has such a distinctive style and could combine Ryan's votes and his own into a winning number...while Nick and Blake with similiar styles might split vote.

I thought they were roomates (Nick and Melody)...... I also think I read in US Weekly that Paula Abdul was supposed to choreograph as well.

Thanks for confirming. I knew that Melody knew Craig, but she came in with Nick and they are friends. That's why I said that I bet that some of the moves they did for the disco number, were things they had done before. Some of the moves took a lot of good timing.

Blake & Nick should be the final two dancers. They do have similar styles of dancing, but those two are way above the rest of the field in technique. As a professional dancer, technique is vitally important. The untrained dancers could not stand up to the test as the series progressed because their lack of training showed. It's not something you can pick up in a week. The trained dancers have practiced good technique for years and can rely on their training when they need to learn new dances and steps. Their posture and positioning starts off perfect because they have been trained to carry themselves whereas the street dancers can do hip-hop well, but fall short a lot of the time in the structured dancing and ballroom. Most of the time it's their posture. I think the final should be Nick, Blake, Ashley & ?... Melody & Kamilah are a toss up for me. Melody gets the cute factor with that great smile, but she is so short that it is awkward for her partners to dance with her. Kamilah is great at certain styles of dance.

Another spoiler. It may not be as accurate as my ealier one but the poster seems to be positive that it might be true. Here goes: >> >>
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | The results show for So You Think You Can Dance is taped on Thursdays and so as always, I search for spoilers beginning that morning. I received a few spoilers this week and while I can't find anything official to back them up, the spoilers that I did receive are all the same. So therefore I'm assuming they are true as of right now. For the women, rumor is Kamilah has been eliminated. I thoroughly expected this so it was not a surprise to me. As Nigel said this week, she is lucky she made it to the top 6. Melissa was far more deserving than she was. As for the men, I'm afraid I have some disappointing news. The rumor here is that Blake is the one eliminated. This is shocking to me and I am seriously hoping that this spoiler turns out to be false. | >> >>

Does anyone know what the length of the finale will be tomorrow? My local listings has the "Dance" finale as 8 PM to 9 PM, but wondering if cancellation of "Head Cases" (9-10 PM) is going to affect things???

I just had a feeling that Jamile had a huge following and that Blake never recovered enough public opinion. I personally think it is a shame he is gone...I think he was consistently the best dancer in the competition. Still, not a bad lesson to learn when he is young that sometimes being the best dancer is not enough. I giggled at Melody's raised leg in her solo. She's a defiant little booger!

OK....Nick's my favorite. He has made each partner look good and hasn't waivered on his quality. The girls fought hard tonight, though. Jamile was a bit sluggish at the start, but then came alive. I am pulling for all of them. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them throughout the show....and I miss the other dancers that are already gone. I'd be fine with them just bringing them all back and dancing for me each week!

Did anyone else try to call and vote? I just kept getting a busy signal, and it isn't important enough for me to keep trying because I think they're all good. That said, I hope I never see another toe pointed at the ceiling ever, ever, ever again! Even Nick did it! AUGH! Maybe I should've voted for Jamile on that basis alone. He was the only one who never pointed his toe at the ceiling.

I did call to vote (from East Coast) and got through easily. Spent 20 minutes or so voting for Nick, then got distracted by other business. Ironically, I NEVER got a busy signal; wonder what gives? I agree; they are all good; any one of them worthy of the win... I really just want to see them keep on dancing!!! Wish they would think of a tour American Idol style!

I think Nick is going to win this. Nigel's praise will have impact. He has been shamelessing lobbying for both he and Melody. I was not surprised to see Blake go. He is already established in the dance field. The contestants are there to aquire what Blake has now. His acid comments about the judges, one in particular, did him in. He never could recover from this cocky display.

Nick and Blake are equally strong technical dancers, but Nick seems to have a much more pleasant personality, and I'm sure would ultimately be a lot more agreeable for a choreographer to work with.

Is it going to be one guy and one girl, or just one person?

Did they say at the beginning of the series that they would be doing some kind of theater show? I thought the winner got a part. But I also thought that some of the losers would be up for parts, too.
