I am somewhat floored too. I definitely thought Neil had the best solo of EVERYONE--couldn't believe how much he packed into the 30 seconds. It's the first time I've reallys been impressed with him. But I don't get it at all about keeping Danny over Jesus--and they said they were unanimous???

And Jessi? I thought she really redeemed herself in this solo over the solo she did last time. And I really hated at the end when Kat said per usual that the VOTERS not voting had put both performers at risk--we had nothing to do with Jessi being made to Dance for Her Life! I was hoping either Lauren or Anya would go.

Question: they said Jessi was NOT a unanimous decision, but did they identify who voted to keep her?

I don't know. My TV station cut in from commercial with Nigel already halfway through his speech. Just before he berated Lauren for taking up so much time walking and taking off her jacket (Which I was sooo afraid Neil was going to slip on!!!)

I love Jesus, he might even have been my fave of the three 'dudes,' but I have to agree that Neil and Danny danced better for their lives. Their solos were just killer.

I'm also very sad to see Jessi go, but to be honest, I thought her solo was kind of weak. Her clothes were so baggy that it made it hard to appreciate her movement.

I actually remember thinking that Lauren's was good (not great). I don't recall that she only danced for 10 seconds like Nigel suggested (??)

Sara was okay, but didn't much impress me.

Anya barely even danced. What was that??? Her wiggly fingers at the end was the first moment I felt like I was seeing something from her.

Really, based on the girls solos, I think Anya most deserved to go home. Of course as we all know, she is an 'annointed one.' Imagine the tongue lashing poor Cedric would have gotten if he turned out a solo like that

I'm disappointed they got rid of Jessi, perhaps they know more about her medical condition than we do? I also really thought Anya deserved to go.

Ok, nothing to do with dancing..lol..but anyone else here think there is a budding romance between Jessi and Pasha?

Or definitely a crush Jessi has on Pasha?

P.S. LOVED Hok's performance yesterday, the choreography was awesome! It truly looked like a humming bird and flower! They both ROCKED it!

Last night already judges said Jessi would be "dancing for her life" because she could not dance then.

Bummer. I really liked Jessi. She wowed me from the first audition, with the baby oil. Although I think last week's solo wasn't great (and she knew it).

I'm shocked. I would have thought Lacey might have gone before Jessi. Lacey's solo wasn't that great tonight. Jessi was fantastic in her dance with her partner, but the clothes she wore for her solo just didn't show her moves that great, nor was the style of dance that great. I wish she would have picked something better, but it almost sounded like the judges had already decided to send her home because she missed the previous day/night. I couldn't tell what was going on either. It was like it was edited, because it cut in on the middle of Nigel's statement.

They had better NOT complain next week that they got rid of the wrong girl.

Cedric obviously got votes from the "Vote for the Worst" forum, just like the guy on AI. You guys were so right to be concerned at what the judges said last night. They should have learned from AI that the voters don't like the judges, so will vote the opposite of what they want. It's so wrong that Jesus went home before Cedric who is so much farther down the ladder skill-wise than the rest of the guys.

There was some nice dancing going on last night.

I agree that Jessi did a phenomenal job in her performance with Pasha. Their dance was one of my favorites of the season. Great chemistry.

Pasha btw sometimes reminds me of John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. If anyone ever does a remake....

okay -- long long time lurker, first time poster -- has anyone noticed that Pahsa works for Tony and Melanie at their dance studio in NY.

okay -- so-- I agree with everyone else -- Anya's costume and solo -- UGH -- YUCK
NeiL --round off full twist on the hard floor -- that is amazing! Not to mention his little trademark leap/kick flipy thing...

Welcome, Ladyw! I didn't know that about Pasha. I love Neil and I'm glad he's so good since he's a somewhat local guy. I thought his solo was awesome. I also think Cedric got the pity vote. I didn't hear what was said to the girls. The show came back from commercial sooner than I thought it would and they were already playing the send-off of Jessi.

Was Anya the one who danced to Fields of Gold in that strange blue dress? That dance seemed so unrelated to the music to me.

that's right, Sea.

Honestly in hindsight, I am thinking now, I bet she was hardly prepared to 'dance for her life.' That would explain a lot.

The guys are all so good, that of the 3 in the bottom, Jesus did give the weakest solo, but weak only in terms of the other two being more than strong. Make sense? LOL I can't imagine they were ready to get rid of anyone except Cedric, which made their choice even harder to make.
As for the girls, Lauren did waste a lot of time walking down the steps, taking off her jacket - I agree w/Nigel there. But...he then told Jessi to step forward, and just said she wouldn't be continuing. No reason give. So when Cat asked her what she was thinking/feeling, she had no reply! I was speechless, too. Give a reason WHY it was her and not one of the others, criminitny! The judges got to see her dance w/Pasha - which was awesome - and her solo was definitely better than Anya and Lauren's...so why her?
I'm sure it has to do w/her health, but they should be big enough to SAY why instead of leaving her and the audience hanging.

I enjoyed the show and I am trying to keep an open mind about the judges' decisions. I can't let it get to me or I won't enjoy the show as much. I did think Sarah would be the more obvious choice to let go, but again I liked them all. I am surprised the women can't think up better solos, especially seeing what the men have pulled off. Wow Nick!

Had Danny lost his mind there for a second, lauging uncontrollably after they were in the bottom three? Even Cat was all, I think these people are delirious. Either that or he was deliberately being a jerk, and I really hope not.

I didn't really hear Debbie Allen take the other two judges to task - can anyone paraphrase what she said?

I kinda got the feeling that the judges had already decided Jessi was gonna go, no matter how well her solo was.

I've also noticed that when there are two of one type of dancer (contemporary or hip hop) and one of another, then one of the two go. Of course, in the case of the guys, weren't they all contemporary dancers?

I really would've MUCH preferred to see Anya go. Although I thought Laurel's solo was horrible, I thought Anya's was worse.

I'm bummed Jessi went. She really put her heart into this. I think her hip hop routine just wasn't strong enuf to save her against Sara.

And really, I do think they'd decided to let her go before she danced.

At any rate, I'm glad she got to perform the cha cha with Pasha. And the two together were great... much better than the previous night's performance.

Wednesday night Debbie Allen told the other two that they were talking like it was a forgone conclusion that Cedric was going to be in the bottom three and would be gone. She basically let them know how wrong they were being.

I'm thinking that now they are going to have the choreographers come up with some stuff that poor Cedric can't do just so that he looks bad during the dances. I lost a lot of respect for Nigel this past week.

I just dont get the whole Jessi thing - they did not handle it fairly at all! You know she would have been safe if she danced with Pasha on this (& how FREAKING ADORABLE is he!) - I thought the rest of the girls did not that hot on their solo routines anyways.

I'm just angry today over it all!

Our take on Danny's behaviour was that, right or wrong, he was struck by the notion that he and his partner were in the bottom three while Cedric walked to the next round. The comments of some of the judges notwithstanding the dancers know each other and know the relative strengths and weaknesses. Cedric got through because of the heavy handed comments not because of overall talent. That's not to be anti-Cedric. He seems to be a fantastic young man with a lot of potential but this show isn't just about potential.

I agree and I think a year at Debbie Allens place will really bring out a lot of abilities in Cedric. That said, I think Cedric was floored as well. It interesting watching this show with my DD who's 11. She has been in the competitive dance arena for 3 years now - and boy can she call out the good and the bad. She actually does not like Neil -- says his technique is not all that great and he does the same tricks all of the time.

Eventually a lot a great dancers who don't deserve to go will have to go to get to a winner. And at some point its out of the judges hands (right?). I don't see what a lot of people see in some of these dancers. I try to like Pasha but he just doesn't appeal to me. And Danny, although a good dancer, his ego is just very unattractive to me. I really hope a girl wins this year having two male winners prior. Here's a little piece from the Watch with Kristin story:
word is that choreographer Mia Michaels is no longer feeling the love for Cedric (and that may be an understatement). Sources tell me she choreographed Shauna and Cedric this week and was so frustrated by Cedric’s performance, she told producers she didn’t want them on stage performing her piece.

(she is also supposed to reveal the romance on Monday)

Very interesting, Roxibalboa, because I was going to mention that I froze my DVR on Nigel and Mary when it was announced Cedric was safe and both their heads turned to the right and they seemed to be looking at Mia with a weird look on their faces.

She's the one who didn't get rid of Cedric when they should have. I thought her facial expressions were over the top when Cedric did her dance Wed. night. Everyone acts like she's the queen of dance. I just see her as overly dramatic. She certainly blew it as a judge this year.
