I sure liked that dancer who's solo made Adam cry last night. He probably makes the top 20. I also think the Crumper will too. I like his personality.

I won't miss her choreo. It seems like the contestants found her choreo the hardest this last week in trying to make it to the Top 20. Her choreo has no rhyme or reason. It just looks like a bunch of uncomfortable body movements....agonizing. If she didn't get enough accolades, you could tell she was upset. She was just too over the top for me. Kookliebird, I couldn't figure out what the heck Adam was doing. I had to rewind to see it again. I thought he was starting to cry because a person he was rooting for was blowing it, lol.

I will miss some of her Choreo, but I won't miss her. Seemed her ego had gotten larger and larger it she needed everything to be about her, not about the dancers. See ya!

I just loved so many of her pieces that I will miss her choreography. The bed routine with Twitch and Kherington, the bench routine, the addiction number, Mercy, the butt number with Evan and Randi...there are just too many to mention them all! Hers are some of my very favorites dances, and I think the show would not have been the same for me without them. So I'm not sure what the loss of Mia is going to mean for the show. Sometimes I really enjoy her on the panel, but other times...not so much. I was appalled by her treatment of poor Brandon last season. I wish she would just quit as a judge, but continue to choreograph! That would be ideal.

Too lazy to go read the article... any reason as to why she's leaving SYTYCD? And I agree... she should've bailed as a judge a long time ago. But her choreography will definitely be missed. She really could do some incredible things with the dancers she was given.

I predict that Mia will come back just past the top 10 because the dancers NEED her to make them complete dancers (or Nigel will mention how her routines in previous seasons were so much better than what the dancers are doing this season a bunch of times to stroke her ego, getting her to come back for the sake of the dance - not the show since she probably couldn't care less, but for 'dance').

Perhaps she had issues with some of the dancers that were chosen.

Suddenly I see why Mia quit. You could tell she had issues with some of the bizarre choices (Amber is cut, but cupie doll Molly is in??) And exactly how did wifewhosnameIcantbebotheredtocheck make it through after Paula quits? Was she really the next best dancer? (hello, Amber)

I think its not always the best dancers they pick they also have to have charisma for ppl to vote for them. Look at the first couple of boots every season they are usually the ones with the least charisma.

I'm not sure Mia quit because she didn't get her way with the dancers selected. I was surprised to see her shaved head, and when she said that things hadn't been going her way lately, I wondered if she's been ill. This is only speculation on my part and it's definitely possible she just wanted to move on to other things. I hope the latter is the case, and that she's healthy and happy in her future endeavors. While I won't miss her snarkiness, I will miss some of the phenomenal choreography she's given the dancers.

Mia has been on SYTYCD Canada all season and just shaved her head a few weeks ago.

She mentioned things "not going her way" lately and then I noticed the buzz cut. Hope there's nothing medically wrong with her. I just hope it is a work thing that was too good to pass up.

Flamingo, while she is very young, 'cupie doll' Molly showed some pretty good dancing last night in clips I saw. I do agree with you that some excellent dancers were cut. I hope Molly does well throughout the show and she wasn't just kept for her storyline.

I can't believe they cut that fabulous ballet dancer so we could have THREE tap dancers. Ooookay....I love tap, but...it is REALLY necessary to have THREE tappers???

I usually enjoy all the dancers chosen. This time, and I am unsure why, I don't like Molly that much (sorry). Maybe its the maturity (or lack of) or she is just to loud? I don't know... just doesn't click with me. And also the crying girl with the high voice... ughhhh... I was already tired of it last night. This could be a long season if she cries all the time! I might even FFW on my tivo, lol! My fav is Bianca (tapp) but its probably because she got a lot of camera time so far.

I just want to say...I'm so thrilled for this season's dancers. I really believe this will be an interesting year...where did those dogs come from and why are they howling?

Ketchup, you know that girl Paula don't you? (fess up) She was our fave. I am so disappointed we won't be seeing her. I hope she made the right decision.

I can't wait to see what Russell can do. Man that guy has some incredible natural talent. If the stuff is true about him not having any formal training but still picking up all that different choreography in Las Vegas.

I agree about Mia...love her choreography, but not really her as a judge. I just don't seem to understand her sometimes. Like last year, like her negative impression of Brandon when I thought he was wonderful. Other times I have thought dancers were blah and she thought they were great. But she can choreograph, that's for sure. She has done some fabulous stuff on this show. Not sure there is a better outlet for someone with her talents than SYTYCD.

I will miss some of Mia's routines.. is she leaving now or at the end of this season? However she's creative and innovative and perhaps she just needs to move on.. The shaved head.. while I was surprised to see that, I wondered if it had to do with the friend she choreographed the special dance for last season? Maybe she shaved her head along with someone who was doing chemo? Jimmer, wow you are FAST!! Great banner!!

Last night it was the SYTYCD canadian finale and Mia did a choreography with the top 10. It was about moving on (related to her quitting the US show). Of course it was beautiful as always. She wasn't at the show, the host mentioned she hurts her back during rehearsal and was at an hospital in Toronto.
