The Salsa woman was terrific, but her partner less so. But he could have won Dancing with the Stars by being told he was always there for his partner so she was able to be fearless in the tricks.

Travis TOTALLY wowed me! His flexibility and control were incredible (and I don't remember him doing those tricks when he was a contestant).

The dancer "Cooper" from Los Angeles! My daughters best friend dances with him and has taken privates with him. He competed and works with a studio in Irvine for many years. I've seen him compete a few years ago when my daughter was doing the studio route. He always won his category and the overall. It was so cool to see someone I kind of know...

I don't remember Travis having that kind of sense of humor when he was a contestant. He seemed pretty serious back then But, Benji was just the opposite, so maybe it was just editing that showed him that way. I loved when he kicked his leg high and then fell over backwards. When he first came out, the judged clearly did not know who he was. I hope they show it again sometime.

Travis was so great & entertaining! He walked & moved his hips just like a woman, that shows how versatile & talented he is. It was great to watch again, thanks for posting it Kookliebird. I couldn't tell, was Travis dancing in heels? If so, I'm even more impressed. That was fun & funny to watch.

Too bad about Robert Muraine quitting. Hope he comes back next year.

Kinda off topic but it was because I was trying to view Travis's "It's raining men" on Utube.... anyone know why it says it's no longer available? I get that for all other Utubes too. Weird, I didn't have that issue before.

I just love Debbie Allen. If Robert was so worried bout the other types of dances then why didn't he learn them in the off season??

I can't remember half of these people. I am assuming that the top 20 are mostly made up of the people they did little vignettes on during the auditions. But, none are really standing out right now.

I'm disappointed that Brandon and Markus (the guy who was dancing for his mother) didn't go through.

So far, I like Twitch and the blond soccer player-Carrington? Hopefully, we will see more of their personalities next week.

I think it's funny how a lot of us here kind of knew the popper and that other guy wouldn't be able to do choreographed stuff, so we were baffled they got to go straight to Vegas. And we were right. If we knew, then you know the judges had to have known, too...but still sent them. That's weird to me.

I remembered the quirky blonde - Kortni. I kind of liked her in her original audition (we are having high winds and the power was out and my TIVO didn't catch last night's show -- I caught the last hour of it on a later channel thank goodness!). I'm sorry I missed all of the first hour because it seems to catch most of the "meat" of the show. Do you think the producers doomed that last girl by showing that bit of drama at the end? That almost seems unfair to me. Viewers are going to be predetermined to dislike her. What is up with the weird spelling of names this year? Congratulations to our Top 20 Finalists Joshua, Rayven, Jamie, Twitch, Marquis, Matt, Comfort, Courtney G., Susie, Chelsie H., Chris, Thayne, Mark, Jessica, Kourtni L., Gev, Kherington (soccer girl), Katee, Chelsea T. and William.

Apparently Jamie(male)was Lacey Schwimmer's partner. There was a Marquis on Dance Wars. Same guy?

From eonline...(I wish they would put pictures of the finalists on their websites or if they have I can't find it...right now I only know them visually) Here. We. Go. The Top 20 of So You Think You Can Dance's season four have been chosen. I got to meet them a little early and here's the dish on some of the dancers and the season to come: • According to lyrical-contemporary cutie Marquis Cunningham, "They have forewarned us that there are going to be several new genres in the hat that they haven't shown the past three seasons." Mmmm...Polka? Bhangra? Quadrille? What do you suspect is going to be hiding in that hat? • A little birdie told me the top 20's first group dance will be choreographed by legend-in-the-making Wade Robson. That's good news for many of these kids, several of whom confided that Wade is the So You Think choreographer they'd most like to work with. • Jamie Bayard is a scion of the Schwimmer dance dynasty. He's not biologically related, but he was Lacey Schwimmer's dance partner for four years, and they won two U.S. Swing Dance championships together, and you know it's all in the family. • It's a small world, and the dance world is even smaller than that: Chelsie Hightower went to high school with season-two star Allison Holker; Katee Shean grew up in the same town as season-one finalists Nick Lazzarini and Melody Lacayanga; and Matt Dorame and Thayne Jasperson study at the same studio. • Three of the top 10 girls are former NBA cheerleaders: Susie Garcia danced for the Miami Heat for six years; Courtney Galliano (she's the one who came to audition with her grandparents in tow) dances for the New York Knicks; and Chelsea Traille is a self-professed "class junkie" who decided to try out the Dallas Mavericks' brand of "commercial hip-hop" when she learned the gig came with free dance lessons. • While I was chatting up the season-four kids, I found out that a season-two standout—who I thought was perhaps the lady of her season least likely to get knocked up—has just had a baby with her fiancé. They grow up so fast! Any theories on the identity of the new mom? Post your guesses in the comments. Now, do you have any early faves from amongst the chosen ones? Share your picks!

Jessica is from Myrtle Beach, SC. She is one of my granddaughter's teachers at her dance studio. The choregraphy she used last night she had used some of it in one of the dances for one of the classes at recital. On the recital handouts, they had put in a note congratulations to her for her efforts on the show. (that is all they had said, so we thought maybe she made it far. Last year she went to LV, but that was it.) We will be voting for her!
