I thought how they did the eliminations was very fair. Even if they didn't do well in the dance style they were not familiar with, if they got 2 votes, they got to "dance for their life" at the end of the session, in their own style.
They need to keep pushing them in the styles outside of their comfort zone, or they will end up with finalist who are too limited in their talents.
This is my favorite "talent" show format so far. Better than Idol, etc. Love the level of talent they are filtering down to!!

My wife and I watch this show, along with lots of summer time reality shows, and our impression from last night was there was an awful lot of "break" dancers/dancing. Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed most of them and some were downright amazing. In fact, stupid as it may sound we even clapped for a couple...kind of funny considering it's just the two of us in our TV room. We starting watching last season about when they were already down to the last 12 so have no idea what the early tryouts were like or the dance styles.

The girl from last year with the bad ankle is either pregnant or had a baby. That's what I read somewhere.

At first I was very much an Olivia supporter, but after what she said when she was eliminated, I'm glad she's gone. She needs to go home and grow up. Glad Hok made final 20 and Benji's sister.

Who else made the final 20? What about the girl with one arm?

One armed girl didn't make it. Sorry I have crs and can only remember Hok & Lacey (Schwimmer). And a couple others who shall remain nameless.

Thanks. Every time they showed the 1 arm girl, I would not recognize her until they made a comment. Talk about overcoming your disabilities.

Was Olivia the one whose Mother had the biopsy?

I loved how many they were encouraging to come back next year. Obviously, they had a really good pool and were having a LOT of trouble narrowing it down to top 20.

The just-18 girl who assisted Tyce in choreography last year made it through, as did the arrogant adopted brother (I think they said) of the runner-up last year....oh, how can his name slip my mind! Shane didn't want to put him through, but I think they want him for the "drama", also to see if he can grow (or shrink maybe) in the ego department. Three from ballroom made it though--actually four including Benji's sister. There was the couple with the woman who is sister to __________? And Fiana, whose backstory I am trying to remember.

Thanks, Ketchup! I just was drawing name blanks all over the place....I guess trying to remember too many names from this year!

Another one I like who made it through was Jessica. I think she was the one who came out of the suitcase; I KNOW she was the one who did the dance where she kind of popped herself in the chin and won kudos from Nigel for being what entertainment is all about.

Well, the girl from here got eliminated tonight. I CRS and her name was something like Cailie??? She was the girl with dark hair who they told she was one of the few they sent right through to Vegas after her audition in Atlanta. She was toward the end before the tension of the last four and which two would make it. What makes me wonder when they started these auditions is, she said at the Atlanta audition that she had to miss her HS graduation to be there. Unless she was graduating mid-year, that would have been almost a year ago. Hard to imagine they would audition so early.

I know they want to represent all fields of dance, but some of them seem limited to me. Oh well.... we'll see how they look when they put them through the paces. It seemed a bit of favortism when they DID put through the girl who worked on the show last year, Benji's sister and Travis's brother. They all were good dancers, but so many of them were, too.

While I can't specifically disagree with any of the final 20 selections I'll have to say we were a bit confused. It seemed to us some were eliminated, like the young girl from Atlanta, with little information for the viewer. When we saw her audition dance, the one that sent her directly to Vegas, we thought "here's a potential star" as she was super. We don't recall seeing much of her in the shows filmed in Vegas and all of a sudden she's gone. On the other side there were a number, maybe four or so, of the final 20 we don't recall seeing much of at all and the judges were all high on them. All in all this process has been a bit confusing but now we've caught up to "real time" and the number is now to 20 it will all make more sense.

I'm glad Jessi made it thru. I think she's got amazing potential.

I was surprised Lacey (Benji's sister) made it thru. Three ballroom girls is a lot.

I'm glad Hok made it thru. This was his THIRD TIME???? I only remember last time, when he got kicked off cause he only had a student visa.

Most of the guys that made it thru that weren't hip hop weren't really shown much thru the audition process. I didn't even know ego guy was related to Travis (by adoption).

Should be interesting to see how some, who do so well in their own genres, adapt to other styles of dance, and to dancing with a partner.

Hok is part of a group and they all auditioned the first year, he didnt make it as far as he did last year. so yes this is his 3rd year trying out.

I loved the guy at the end with Hok, wanted him in this year, hopefully he will come back next year. I loved the friendship those 2 seemed to have. I was very moved by their emotion at the end.

Not loving Lacey, not sure why.

Looks like a great group though

I thought Twitch was great!

Not loving Lacey either. Dunno whether it's cause she's Benji's sister, she's got the same facial expressions, or what? Just not a fan.

I think it's sort of odd that there are 3 siblings of past contestants in the top 20. Is there such a small pool of dancers at this talent level to choose from that it's just a coincidence? Do families tend to be "dance families"?

That being said, I'm excited about the top 20. I like Lacey. She seems to have a touch of punk/goth. I hope Travis's brother is more likeable than he was edited.

I'm think the boy they called odd will do well. He has quite a bit of charm and he's unique.

I think they set up that arrogant guy for a big fall...if he continues to be like that ppl wont vote for him.

I thought the one they called odd will get votes because they called him odd LOL He reminds me of a young Donny Osmond....but a more sexy version

Pamy & Costa, I'm not feeling the Lacey love either but I think she will grow on us. I think, for me, the reason has something to do with the way she was when they brought her and the other girl down to tell them which is going home. I don't know her ofcourse so total speculation here, it seemed kind of like she knew she was staying.
I guess I didn't really notice Travis's adopted brother being full of himself.

Denecee, I felt the same way about Lacey, I think she was trying to act surprised but she really thought she was staying. I think it came across as fake.
