I think that Mia was a little to bias against the women or maybe just a little to obvious. As to Nigel's remarks about Benji and Travis he is right to some extent. Travis had a hard time with some of the styles of dance especially ball room so his technique is not in all styles. It is much easier to teach technique and it can be developed however personality and stage presence is another story. It is more of a natural talent. Just some thoughts.

I agree Jeneane. I also feel that Benji, along with his tremendous stage personality, was quite capable in most of the other dance forms he was challenged with.

I used to like Travis more than Benji - both are awesome - but then I got to thinking, well, Travis is always doing that same amazing piruette while Benji is always coming up with something new, and his style imo is more fun and less pretentious. It's interesting to hear him characterized as 'limited' because I had just started thinking that maybe he didn't feel the need to be a technical show off, but more of an entertainer....

Hard to overcome someone who's name is chanted by the audience every time he dances.

Thanks, Darrelh, now if I could just remember Ashlee!!! I guess that's why I couldn't remember she was fourth...I remember Artem last year vividly (and he helped Mary teach this year) and Blake of course and Alan and Snow....trying to think if I remember anyone else? hmmmm Oh, of course, the young man who danced on his head and is a friend of Hawk's...he was great, loved him, just can't think of his name. Interesting that I remember more men than women last year!

I wonder if Benji is kin to Ross from Friends since they share the same last name Schwimmer?

I've been watching all season but haven't really said much. I liked Ivan; never thought he would make it as far as he did.

Is it just me...or did Alison and Natalie have a thing going on?

I thought Alison and Ivan might have a thing going on. I guess all these dancers got really close after going through this whole process together, and artists are very sensitive and emotional anyway.

In another thread I mentioned how teams seem to really bond in these contests, like in Survivor. That is one of the traits of human nature that has attracted me personally to reality shows, way back to the first survivor. It's us verses them. Don't many of us dislike the contestants who turn on their team (or tribe) mates? They are thrown together and really bond, if they are decent people. I have to agree with Nigel that Natalie lost something when Musa left. They were closely bonded on the stage IMO.
I agree with Jeneane about Mia, she really ripped the females in this last show!

1) No wonder the prize is a one year stint with Celine - and no wonder Mia talked about who was hard for her to work with due to technical limitations!

Guess who choreographs Celine's show!

Yep - Mia - I was just reading a TV guide interview with Ashlee and Musa and this is what it says:

TVGuide.com: If you had won, how would you have enjoyed being in a Celine Dion show?
Ashlee: Mia Michaels choreographs it, and I think she would have taken my style and done something amazing with it. I got to work with her in Vegas, and I was in tears after her piece. I wasn't the best at it, but the way she makes you move your body.... It's just incredible.


2) They only have two days to rehearse their number as per the VERY MARRIED musa's answer to this question in that article: -

TVGuide.com: Why only two days? Aren't there six days between shows?
Musa: After you get the results on Thursday night, you get Day 1, which is an hour and a half with our choreographer. The next day is three hours with the same choreographer. Day 3, you have to perform it in front of the producers, so they can see what you're doing and make sure it's not too vulgar or raunchy for TV. Day 4, Monday, we tape the show. Day 5, we start rehearsing for the group routine for Thursday's live show. Day 6, we rehearse again for eight hours for the group opening act. Day 7 is Thursday's live show.


3) Musa Cooper is married, and lives in Camden, New Jersey, where he works as a professional window cleaner, rappelling down skyscrapers.

Wow, thanks for sharing that, Jan. Wouldn't it be spectacular if we saw some of those cut on upcoming shows of some type? I'd love to see Musa, Alison, Martha, Ryan and Ivan pop up somewhere.

Wow, I was just reading our local newspaper and saw a brief announcement that Buddy and Laurie Schwimmer would be in town Aug. 18-9 for a Swing and Latin Weekend Festival. I realized that this is Benji's Dad, "the King of Swing". I would love to catch a peek at how he performs. I can see that Benji's talent is in the genes!

I think the finale will have everyone back to dance. It's supposed to be two hours.

I hope that they all come back for the finale. Hmm, with Mia choreographing Celine's show, I wonder if when openings come up in future that she would consider some of the others from this season?

WHEN is the finale?? I just checked my Yahoo TV listings and it says one hour 9 PM to 10 PM on Wednesday (preceded by HOUSE), and then FOOTBALL (!!!) is listed all night on Thursday! I am so confused by their scheduling!
