There were some parts of that routine that I guess could have been considered risque...like when she was shaking her butt in his face, and at one point I think she was all but riding him...but I can't say I was offended by it. I really liked it!

Just finished watching the last show. That Ellenore is a stunner!!! The tango she and Ryan did was the best performance of the night! I was happy to see Noelle return. She gave a wonderful performance. Russell continues to amaze me each week. He's taken everything they've thrown at him, including the kitchen sink! BTW Beach, I am still cracking up over here about your statement. LOLOL

It seems to be somewhat luck in this dance game with the dancers not being able to pick the dances they do. I felt bad for Bianca in that she had a rough dance and never really got to show what she could do. Same with Phillip. When he did his solo dance, you could see so much rhythm in him. I wanted to see more of them. I didn't like very much of the choreography last night. Ugh...only a few.

I was also amazed to hear the judges criticize the choreographers somewhat...that's a rather new development. But I think it is justified...you have to give the dancers something that they can work with.

Oops, it won't be Channing and Russell...it will be Channing and Victor, won't it?

I thought what could have been controversial about that dance is that it was all set and lighting and props -- not really dancing. I actually liked it, but I like odd, quirky old Wade. His and Mia's dances are always my faves.

I actually find that I'm already missing Mia's choreography...I don't really miss her as a judge, though! I think Adam is far more constructive. I really enjoy him!

Adam is hilarious! His "ow-ooo-ga" last week, and the falling off the chair this week... He's also a great judge. He's honest but he's not cruel. Mia has a cruel streak in her. That said, I do miss Mia's choreography. But it is nice to see other choreographers this season.

Is Mia not doing any choreography or judging this season?

Sky, Mia quit the show completely. I'm betting she will be back though just because her ego won't let other choreographers get high praise and the show will NEED her to survive (blech).

No, she may THINK the show will need her to survive, but I think it'll do just fine without her.

I didn't know Mia quit the show. Some of her dances were my favorite of all Seasons (the most recent being the Addiction with Kayla and Kapono) ... but then she's always ruin it by opening her mouth.

Finally watched the whole show. My heart goes out to Phillip, God bless him. I give him major props for being able to go on with the show after losing his dad last week. Even Cat had tears in her eyes. Legacy and Catherine had another great routine! I love those 2 !!! I dont get all the Karen worship. She is good but they are going way overboard, it will make ppl not vote. I love Wade's routines. I think another couple would have done that one better. I think Pauline and Peter will go soon. What was up with Peter licking his eyebrows? it seemed like it was insulting to judges. what is the new hand symbol they are all making?

Pamy, I caught that, too. Can't say for sure, but I think the hands are shaping a "heart," to show the "I love you" symbol. Anyone else know for sure?

I saw the heart symbol too, but it isn't new. I remember Sabra making it the first season I watched.

Sorry to say that DH and I were both happy to see the tappers go. I was bored with them. They were both one trick ponies. I didn't even like their solos. It's really hard to either tappers or the hip hop dancers to cross over to the other styles. Russell is doing an amazing job, but the tappers just weren't doing it. Ellenore's tango was incredible. I was so distracted by her heel caught in her dress. I don't know how she continued to dance like that! What focus!!!

"I <3 U" means "I heart you" in texts. The dancers are showing their love.

I thought Peter licking his eyebrows the way he did while the Judge was talking to him was very insulting.

I don't see Peter going very far. I think he's kind of cocky.

I think he will go next and I bet the judges will be happy.

I'm just glad that it's not all up to the judges anymore. We may not have the final say, but we do have some say as to who is safe.

Yeah it is nice to have some say, but with BL, DWTS AND SYTYCD all together.. not sure I'll be able to vote much. I also miss Mia's choreography, but not Mia's comments. Nigel mentioned her in passing so sounds like he'd be open to her return, if that should happen.

For all the Tyce Diorio fans: Last night my husband and I watched a DVD of the newly released documentary "Every Little Step," which chronicles the 18-month process it took to mount the 2006 Broadway revival of "A Chorus Line." To our surprise, Tyce Diorio was one of the dancer/singers auditioning for the show; he was trying out for the part of Mike, the man who became a dancer when his older sister refused to go to tap class and he took over her lessons ("I Can Do That!"). Diorio was one of three dancers asked to a final call back for the role. (I won't spoil it by revealing whether he got the part or not.) But he is featured and interviewed in sections of the documentary, appearing at length 45 minutes into it, and again an hour and 15 minutes into it, and then again at the end. The documentary also shows a lot of his dancing --he has major skills.

I was watching some clips on BuddyTV that showed all the dancers "signature moves" and I just have to ask if it drives other people crazy when Ellenore's hair is pompadoured up on top? She was lovely last week with her hair down but I just don't like that pouf on top during the opening sequence (and it was the same style in this video).
