Awwww Darrell....you deserve them (happy early b-day, in case I forget!) I bought Elvis Costello tickets for myself for my birthday. The e-mail that he was coming came the day before my birthday...and since I hadn't bought myself anything, I thought I had better! I am wondering whether I should get tickets for this or not. Hmmmm.....

Judges weren't big on the hip hop piece by Neil and Sabra (I can see where they were coming from... it was almost too smooth....but easy-to-please me enjoyed it.) Lacey and Danny performed...OK I am forgetting what the dance was. But it was flowing and beautiful and had great lifts in it...the judges loved it and I did too!

Lacey and Sabra did a Wade Robeson routine...the judges thought that it didn't showcase their talent and I would have to agree. Still, I think Wade always brings something interesting out of dancers and it did keep my attention. There were some nice moments, as expected when you get performers like them.

Yes you are such a politically correct spoiler, it is making me smile. I am not so nice and have been a bit disappointed in performances tonight but I will say I don't think it is bad dancing as much as bad coreography. Keep it up Yes you are doing a great job!

Like I said, I am an easy audience. I like all of them and am probably a bit maternal in my watching!!! And I guess because I don't get to see much dance, I find even the bad stuff to be interesting. The Two Musketeers Danny and Neil...very athletic and dramatic and they pulled it off. The costuming was perfect for their bodies, I think. For some reason it made me laugh, though. Probably the ruffles. Judges loved them. Oh... it was choreographed by Mia Michaels. Thought the camera work with Sabra's solo was horrid. I got a bit seasick.

Lacey and Neil...Lindy hop. Raves from the judges. I thought they were cute as buttons... but I worried about them passing out from exhaustion at the end!

Danny and Sabra....cha cha. Nigel loved it, but I think Mary hit it dead on when she said it started a bit slow, then improved greatly. I was bit disappointed in it overall, since I think both are wonderful dancers and wanted them to hit it out of the park. While I saw the chemistry when they were practicing and thought it was great, it wasn't there as much for me when they performed. Still, they are at such a caliber their "not as good as I would like to see" is still wonderful. By the way, Danny and Lacey did the Viennese Waltz early on...can't believe I couldn't remember the name! I can't even vote. I would like each of them to win for different reasons. Good luck to them all! I think it will be one of the women, though.

You are welcome, though I personally think I do a lousy job. But noone else was jumping in, so thought I would try!

I didn't write down the numbers to vote tonight and was surprised they didn't show them one more time at the end! (unless I spaced and missed it??) If anyone is reading this thread and would be so kind to do so, could you please list the numbers for the dancers or list a link where I can find them? I looked a little on the Fox website, but haven't found them yet. Thanks in advance for any replies!!

Thanks Sharinia. That sounds right I think because Sabra did do her solo last.

Lacey was 01 Neil was 02 Danny was 03 Sabra was 04 They did show the numbers again at the end when they reviewed all the dances that each contestant did...tonight's show was a bit long though so I can see how some could have overlooked the recap. Personally, I thought it was a bit "forward" or "presumptious" when Nigel not so subtlely suggested that America vote for a female...stating that "it would be nice for a girl to win this time". I already had my mind set on voting for Sabra (based on what she has done all season long...not just tonight which I admit was lacking due to the choreography imo)...but Nigel's comment almost made me want to vote for Neil... he looked so shocked by Nigel's comment/suggestion that it broke my heart!

West Coaster here.. so far, it seems like their comments are geared toward influencing a Danny win.

This is my first year watching the show, but I was surprised when Nigel said that about a female winning. I'm sure he only meant it in the most positive way, but it didn't seem appropriate for a judge affiliated with the show to make a comment like that. Hope that doesn't present a backlash toward either of the females from anyone put off by his comment. Well, all I can say is may the favorite dancer win...male or female! They are all very talented. I enjoyed watching the show this summer and will definitely tune it in from now on!
