I think a lot of people voted for Comfort because she came in to this week at a huge disadvantage. She only had one day to learn/rehearse the two dances, plus group dances and her solo. And that's AFTER she had already been through the massive adrenaline crash of being kicked off the show.

I didn't vote for her, but that's just what I'm thinking.

My dream scenario is that next week, everyone votes for Mark to keep him out of the bottom and Will slips in and goes home. Did anyone notice when the guys did their group routine that Will was the only one who knew where the camera was at all times?

Unless a conspiracy exists, Comfort will probably go next week. I think she got more votes because of the situation like Shel says. People probably thought Kherrington was safe.

I wonder what would happen in Will choses Comfort as his partner next week.

Gev's solo tonight was awesome. That backward move where he lifted himself up was amazing.

Gev's solos always amaze me. I just love his personality. Honestly I will be sorry to see any of the rest of the guys go, except Will.

Costa, good call, that is prolly what it is.

Kherington's solo's have gotten weaker every time and I was a big fan. Her first 2 routines were amazing but then they started to fizzle.

I agree with Nigel that she has a star quality and can see her doing movies/tv along with dance.

I had to post a message because I am so sad Gev is gone. His solos were amazing and what he lacked in formal training he recouped in the personality and 'heart & soul' department. Kharington had bad luck...country line dancing (huh!!!) and no chemistry with her new partner. Comfort has danced poorly but she did get her specialty and that helped her. It's part partner/part dance routine. I Did Not like the dance results tonight. Go Joshua and Chelsie....

Gev's solos were some of the most outstanding all seasons imo. He also stood out to me in the guys group number tonite. I agree that he grew a ton and sure will be missed ...

Twitch looked v. sad to see Kherington go... I wanted a goodbye kiss under the blue lights.... at least they can pick it up in O.C. :-)

I think I'd have been sad no matter who went this week. I do hate that Kherington not only lost her great partner for last night but I think they got stuck with a bad set of dances/hard.. I voted for five of them last night and Kherington (based on overall, not last night) was the only one even in jeopardy. I would have sent Comfort home but I still like her very much and agree that she's evolved perhaps the most. Comfort was clearly surprised at the result.

I LOVED the hip hop she and Twitch did last night.

Twitch, Joshua and Will.. yeah! Joshua being totally gorgeous!

So, do they switch partners again next week?

I was never a fan of Karington and after last night I felt it was best that she go. Comfort is not the best dancer but she has never done as poor a job as Karington did last night to the point it hurt her partner. It was painful to watch. Comfort will probably go next week. I was very sad to see Gev go. I like all the guys at this point and it will be sad to see any of them go.

Snee, Mary is just.. loud.. but she knows dance and the dancers clearly love it when she praises them.. the first year I hated it but I've grown to enjoy her, oddly enough.

Will has been the anointed one by the judges since tryouts and they made a big deal early-on that since he's a protege of Debbie Allen, if he made the show, she couldn't be a judge (but she was willing to sacrifice), and they just stumble all over each other praising him, plus Nigel and others have made some really uncalled for comments about Jessica when she was paired with Will, that she was bringing him down, or he needed a new partner or he was carrying her. and last week Mary basically told Will he would still be there (they were in bottom three) before other dancers had done solos and before the judges deliberated. So it has been hard to get behind him. I do like him and I threw votes to him last night for the first time (along with Katee, Twitch, Joshua and Kherington), but I've liked Joshua and Twitch more.

Ooooooh, so THAT's Will. I couldn't remember him from tryouts and wasn't sure why everyone thought the judges were all about Will. (remember I've been gone since tryouts so this is the first I've seen since then)

If they are praising him simply to kiss up to Debbie Allen then I would be pretty irritated and tempted to vote against him - if I voted, which I don't. However, if they praise him because he's an excellent dancer, which is seems to me he is, then I'm not bothered about the judges really liking him.

I never got to see the shows where Will was paired with Jessica so I have no basis for comparison. I can only go by what I'm seeing from now on so Will/Katee were my top two. I also liked Chelsie, Mark and Joshua though I couldn't begin to say what dances they did or who was paired with whom other than Will/Katee.

I'm sorry Gev's gone too, but I really like Mark and am glad he will be here at least one more week.

I haven't been particularly irritated by Will...until the boy group dance last night. Can we say CAMERA HOG? Not only was he obviously the "star" dancer (having the center position) during most of the dance, but he was certainly giving his all to the camera. YUCK! Yes, he's a great dancer, but he needs to do some serious work on his lack of charisma. Can you work on that?

I don't think Comfort will last another week. Kherington was really struggling last week, even though she was paired with Twitch. She seemed out of energy and last night some of her comments (and I'm glad that guy called her on it during the judges comment section) showed her immaturity. But she IS very young and I'm sure she will learn to be more graceful later.

She said the judges hated her. One of those throwaway remarks that was probably just a result of her frustration but it didn't go over well apparently.

I noticed how the cameras were always on Will and decided that that's it. I'm completely over him now, and I don't care whether he's a great dancer, is gorgeous, or dances like a monkey. I'd have thought he (and Debbie) might have learned from Danny last season. It's not the most trained or the most technical dancer who may win. And it seems that the past two seasons, the most trained and the most technical give off an air of arrogance that, to me, is very offputting. SO not a fan of Will's right now. (And while it may not be his fault, he's the recipient of the gushing and I'm just plain over it.)

For weeks now, Comfort hasn't done that great. The ONLY time I've seen her do anything spectacular was the hip hop with Twitch. Her solos have been boring, her ballroom dances have lacked form, and her contemporary dances have been (to borrow a phrase from Mary), clunkers. I dunno if she managed to stay and Kherington went because people felt sorry for her or others thought Kherington was safe. But she's probably going to be gone next week.

I really liked both Mark and Gev and hated to see either one go. Gev's free style is breathtaking, and I'll miss seeing his b-boy antics during solos!

Next week, I'd love to say goodbye to Will and Comfort. Please?

When would the judges have seen that?? It was only played on Thursday (and filmed after a performance on Weds. night), so the judges wouldn't have known she said it until Thursday's live show.

Either way, I think she said it more as a joke, but since they didn't show more of what they had filmed after that, it didn't come off that way.

I'd like to say that's Will's fault, but I believe Nigel's in the wrong about that.
We all know how Nigel feels about Will, so he made him the "star" of the group dance. He made sure Will was in the front most of the time, and I'm quite sure told all of them to play up to the camera's that are right in front of them, especially since that's how that dance was supposed to work.

I think Kherington wad undone by no chemistry with Mark, and a country two-step.
I didn't think the other routine was all that bad, but since the judges ripped into it, that made the audience maybe think it was bad too.

I guess all the times Twitchington was safe, it was for Twitch and not Kherington, cause the moment they weren't Twitchington anymore, Kherington was gone.

You could see it on Comfort's face, she thought she was gone.

I think Kherington took it all in stride.

But remember, the judges didn't vote. The audience did.

With Kherington, I noticed on Wednesday that the way she was feeling was all over her face when the judges were critiquing each dance on Wednesday. Her eyes were welled up with tears and I knew she was not happy, and also thought she wasn't "feeling" her new partner. I said to my dh, "She's not taking this well at ALL."

So it's possible that people picked up on that and didn't vote. And it's also possible that people just didn't vote for her because of her two dances. Or because everyone there is strong in their own way and she got the short end of the straw.

But I think Lil C saying what he did was likely because the judges noticed it too -- and it was confirmed when the tape ran that she was unhappy. I actually thought he gave her some important comments that she and other dancers can take to heart as a life lesson -- that they didn't hate her, that everything they tell her is constructive, and reminded her that she'd gotten tons of praise before that night. Basically, that she needs to keep everything in perspective.

But, whether he said anything to her last night or not, she was voted off because of viewer votes.

I don't think you can learn charisma. You either have it or you don't. Joshua and Twitch have charisma, Will does not. Once I learned that Nigel choreographed the guys dance, it was clear why Will was front and center.

I said it before, I would like Will to be paired with Comfort next week, but he'll probably get Chelsea or Courtney.

I would bet money they will never pair Will with Comfort. If they have to switch he will get paired with Chel.

Little C's comments were constructive... he was telling it like it is without tearing anyone down. The other judges could learn a thing or two from him.

And I agree Pamy... no way would they let Will dance with Comfort.

Don't they switch it up every week now? New partner, new dances?

That charisma thing... Twitch and Josh both have charisma to spare. There's also a joi de vrie that the two of them have, and it shows in their dancing. Both of those two hip hop boyz... I forget that they are hip hop most of the time! I think Joshua had some training somewhere, but isn't Twitch all street?
