For once I agree with the decisions tonight, can't believe it! Also think the men's two solos WERE weak; when I saw Dimitry "bring it" in his solo, I knew he would be safe.

I wonder how Ashlee and Dimitry will work as a couple? I would love to know what dance style they are drawing right now! It could be interesting!

Best dancers for me are Donyelle and Allison for women, Benji and Travis for men. I would hate to make a call amongst them! I WISH they would let one man AND one woman win!

Ashlee and Dmitri will now be partnered for next week.

Hi, Longbeachbbfan and Mocha!

Longbeach, who do you think will make it to the end?

Let's list who's left:

Gals
Ashlee
Donyelle
Allison
Jessica
Natalie
Heidi
Martha

Guys
Benji
Dmitry
Ivan
Jaymz
Travis
Musa
Ryan

My favorite females: So tough, but I like Martha, Donyelle, Allison and Heidi. I think it will come down to a split between Allison and Donyelle. For now, I think it just may be Allison.

My favorite males: Tough here, too. I like Ryan, Dmitry, and Benji. I think it will come down to a split between Benji and Ryan. For now, I am betting on Benji.

But, as you know, it all depends on performances, and, I think, the luck of the draw in dance numbers and choreographers. So anything could change.

My DVR cut off the ending. I'm not happy about Ben going over Jaymz. Umm... Wait a minute.... "Jaymz"? Is that how he actually spells his name? LOL OK. I'm even more upset with the decision.

Dimitry rocked it.

Hi, Meagain. Yup, I agree with you.

However, I am not sure what was going on inside Ben's head. Almost as though he was suddenly afraid to show emotion when interviewed after solos. Twice now. Given the emotion he was able to show in the video of his excitement over making it on the show, that is surprising. Yet I think that is what got to the judges, and esp Nigel. Ben spoke as though he didn't care--or wasn't worried--or couldn't put two thoughts together. May not have been the case, but that is how he came across. And then he admitted he had put in zero preparation. At least Jaymz had sense enough to say he had prepared, even if he really hadn't. And even if his performance was dismal. Ben shot himself in the foot.

Yes, it IS hard to narrow it down. I think they are all so talented. But, of the boys, I like Benji, Ivan and Jaymz with Benji being my favorite. I think there is more talent in the girls, which makes it even harder to decide who is the best. To narrow it down to 3, I would have to pic Heidi, Allsion and Jessica. I can't pick my favorite girl yet. I also wish 1 girl and 1 boy could win. As of the performances thus far, I think Benji will win.

Ben seemed exceedling nervous and unable to focus. Remember when Nigel said "Jessica step forward" and Ben stepped forward too? I think he wasn't listening, just stepped forward because he was next in line after Ashlee was called forward. He just seemed to lose it under the pressure and seemed very scattered.

I think we haven't seen everything from Travis yet...I was amazed when I went back to look at the audition tapes before erasing; he blew me away more there than in the current competition, so will be interesting to see if he can "take it up a notch" next week; right now he is 1/2 of the couple who "peaked early."

Beth, I agree with your assessment of Travis. I remember I really liked him, and then, my 'love' kind of fizzled. So we will see.

And you're right about Ben being nervous. I had forgotten about that misstep when Jessica's name was called. But he'd done the 'dumb answer' thing twice. It's a shame that is what took him out (if I am right about my thoughts about his inability to communicate well being a factor).

You know, Longbeach, I didn't realize there would only be one winner. (I didn't watch the show last season.) I thought it would be a couple. Well, if it's a single person, then you may be right. I think he is extremely likable, too. Not sure if that comes into play in the judges' decision. This is definitely a show I will not miss from here on out. So exciting cuz they are all so darned good!

Yet I believe it was last week when I think Mary asked some girl what prep she did for her solo and the reply was none. It was improvised. That met with praise.

Well, but it was Allison who had improvised, and she hit a home run with her "improvisation", from start to finish when she hit right on the beats of that bum-bum-bump at the end. (See, I still remember it...and I remember I was totally taken aback when she said it wasn't choreographed in advance!!!!) I guess if you can hit a home run without planning your strategy in advance, it doesn't matter as much. Also, Allison if I remember was only one of two dancers who actually revelled in the chance to show their real stuff in a solo...for some of the dancers, it seems to "bring them up" and bring out their best, and others seem to crumble under the pressure. I thought Nigel was really great with Alekansndra tonight, praising her for coming out of her solo funk of last week and making it clear she was NOT being eliminated for her solo, but for overall.

All I am going to say is Ben should have stayed and Jaymz should have gone. Every solo Jaymz has gotten worse and he hasn't gotten any better during his performances with his partner either. 3 times Jaymz was in bottom 3 and each time he sucked more then the last. I am so MAD that Ben was sent home!!!!

I have a new found respect for Dimitri. I am now a fan. He defended Alek as much as he could without cutting his own throat. "She did everything she was told" all but said the choregrapher was at fault for the points of criticism.

I still do not like Heidi's enery and vibe. She is tightly wound and I find her uncomfortable to watch. Her movements are crisp, sharp and tense. Her smile is a grimace.

Alison is emerging as the one to watch. Excellent.

Nigel sealed both Jessica and Jaymz fate with his harsh and well founded critique.

Ashlee would be well advised to take off the bowler and choose a different dance style for her solo and wow them. She is at the bottom with Jessica. It will be interesting to see how she does with Dimitri. I would love them to do an inovative dance like the cuban rhumba or African inspired comtemporary number.

Enough will the ballroom!

The judges have no problem with improv for the solo if they are qualified to come up with good choreography on the spot. You can bet that no one will cop to that EVER again, though.

Lol I had actually forgotten about Benji till he was in the bottom 3. I think the judges got it right. Dimitri does so well in his solos but... I wonder if he's done hip hop yet and if not how well he'll do.

Did Jamz fall off the stage on purpose? It looked like he fell out of the spin and off the stage LOL

I agree Beachcomber, I love the way Dmitri dances!

And pfftt on Fruit for not liking the dress..humpf

I am GLAD GLAD GLAD that Ben is gone!!

I am voting for Martha and her partner. To me they are the best with the most chemistry.

I know this will not be met with much agreement, but Jaymz and Ben were both going to be gone before it was over. It didn't really matter to me about which went first. For me,it's like Idol. You pretty much know who the top so many should be, and it's just a matter of how they get to that point. I'm just trying to figure out how they'd work some of these people into a Celine Dion stage show. I haven't seen her stage show, but I'm willing to bet it's not a pop and lock extravaganza.

Zachsmom, what dress don't I like? I am having one of my zen moments.

Jaymz fell off the stage. He was so upset about it that he almost could not speak and barely managed to hold back tears.

Ketchup, that is because she kills men by crushing them between her thighs. Trust your intuition and keep a safe distance.
