I wish they didn't cut the show so tight so we could see more of her reaction/rejoicing, or to have her say something, maybe.

Thanks for the spoiling, it was enjoyable in and of itself.

Boy they did rush that ending, didn't they??? But I am happy for her...she is a wonderful dancer. Though I thought that about all of the final four, so I was a sucker for the victor any way it happened!

I really liked Lacey, but if she couldn't win, I'm very happy that it's Sabra...congratulations to her, she's an amazing dancer, with a huge future in front of her!

Amazing! I'm so happy for Sabra! Wish that all of them could win...and in some ways they have, but I'm glad that Sabra won in the end.

Yes, they cut that ending WAY too short. I wonder where we can see followup interviews with Sabra and the rest. Anyone know about appearances tomorrow?

My domestic partner is inconsolable over Danny's loss and I'm inconsolable over Neil not winning (yes, we're a couple of old wolves lusting after cutie pies like D. and N.). But we're both very happy for Sabra, too. Completely amazing she's only been dancing for four years. It was ALSO nice to see a woman AND a person of color winning the whole enchilada!!! A great night all around -- we laughed til we cried after Dustin got evicted from BB and we were pleasantly surprised by how well-paced the SYTYCD finale turned out to be (wildly superior to the American Idol finale, that's for sure).

We were flipping back and forth between BB and SYTYCD last night and managed to catch the "moments". Too bad they ran the SYTYCD show so close to the end as it would have been nice to see more of Sabra enjoy her win. She was our choice as winner quite a few weeks now. Realize that it's off the subject but Dustin's reaction on BB was priceless. A great reality TV night for two shows!

They should have cut the flower dance once they realized how late they were running. Both Danny and Sabra deserved a better send off than that.

Agreed about the rushed ending. I wanted to see memory video of both Sabre and Danny. Also very disappointed that Cat and Nigel didn't really dance. I didn't think their joke was very funny. I'd like to see some of these judges and choreographers dance for once! I had voted for Danny to win, but I'm happy with a Sabre win.

I was very happy with the final 2 so either winning was ok with me. I loved the dances tonight. So much so that if they come to Bmore I may have to go see them.

Agree about cutting the flower dance. Watching it a second time, I still wasn't moved. If I didn't know the backstory of that dance, I'd been bored. I, too, wish they hadn't cut the ending so close. Sabra is absolutely adorable and a phenomenal dancer. After only FOUR YEARS!!! Think what she can do in the future? She deserved the win. And I was happy with the order in which they were elmininated. One thing... my neighbor mentioned last night. Didya notice? The two brothers? Both came in second in their seasons! Odd.

I don't think it's like Sabra danced for the first time 4 years ago. I think they said she has had formal training for 4 years. I may be wrong, but it makes more sense.

She's also just turned 20, so she's quite young. She says in her bio on the official site that she started to dance at 16.

I couldn't believe it but all of a sudden somebody in our office finally mentioned they know Sabra and her family from their military days in Germany. In fact, a number of people here, in other offices, know the family (I work for the Army) and one even flew out to LA for one of the shows. She was Sabra's gymnastics teacher/coach overseas many years ago. Apparently Sabra went from focusing on gymnastics to dance after a number of years of gymnastics training. Certainly would explain her very apparent strength and conditioning. I was floored and they were like "well, we didn't know you followed SYTYCD so we didn't share with you". They've got all sorts of pictures, emails, etc., from past and recent.

Wow Mack that is SO cool! I bet that Sabra comes from a very nice family (just a feeling, based on her own wonderful personality) and now that you say she was involved in gymnastics I can totally see where her strength comes from too. It's weird because half way through this season after Sara had already became my favorite I read in our local newspaper that she grew up and graduated high school in the town right next to ours in Illinois. She took dance at the same studio as one of my 10 year old son's friends...I was SO excited about it that I woke my son up from his deep sleep early that morning to tell him the news about HIS favorite dancer, Sara, and he just looked at me funny and said "yeah mom I've known that for a long time, she danced at the same place as Emily"...too funny, sometimes I think I live in a bubble!
