Yay, its back! And so is this thread, didn't expect there to be one with the previous post rate.

Only halfway through the latest. Jaja was great though she should have included some more krump. I guess that means I.Am.me are competing in the crews though? And while on the subject I'm fairly sure we see Emilio in the intro, strange after going out with injury. Unless it isn't him.


Did anyone catch the Australian version these past months? Michael was pretty great.

I didn't see Emilio and I doubt I.Am.Me competes if an individual is trying to be on the actual show.
Oops, typo, I did mean "aren't".

It was the first episode I thought I saw Emilio a couple of times in the graphic segments. Might not be him,



And I imagine you're right about poreotics, I'm almost certain they will have expected them to go through. Even with Nigel's love for tap.


e: ^^^also it really would be a big shame for it to end, even with the pretty long run that it has had. Are there any other networks state side that would pick up the format?

"I got in to dance because of this show" is the best.

drat, IT COULD HAVE BEEN ME UP THERE! If I'd ever learnt how to dance, that is.

I'm holding out for her to come in as a sub for an injury.

I haven't got to the end yet, will have to come back to it, ran out of time because I kept rewinding to watch the tap routine over again. Thought it was great.

Also, and I probably say it every year/week but, any of Travis' routines could be put up for an award of some sort, yet somehow they never feel repetitive to me. Incredible.

Happy to see they've stepped away from nappytabs a bit so far this year, and getting in some interesting looking hip/hop choreos - BUT a little disappointed that they've decided to do it in the year where they're shorter on the hard hitting hipity hoppers. Looking forward to the all stars though.

Still, I really like the group they've got. I think I've got too many favourites* to actually call any of them as my favourites.
Definitely no one, or even two, standing out as the winner for me yet. Which is probably a first out of any season.


I blame Jessica for her lack of chemistry problem. Nick was terrified of her, you could see it in the pre interview the week he left. I thought Marquet might have 'handled' it a bit better, but nope.


*Group routines FTW! :3:

There's the obvious ones that everyone is likely to have as favourites, i.e. Valerie and Emilo were my early favourites (personal favourites, not necessarily favourites to win), but I really do have loads now. I /really/ like Carly, Emily & Zack too.

So my current 'favourites' are,
Carly
Emilo
Emily
Ricky
Serge
Valerie
Zack


And I'm really not sure if I can narrow it down any more than that just yet!

God Jasmine H has to in the top few if not the best hip hopperer thats ever been on the show. Its hilarious that she come on as a contemporary dancer.


Only up to Valerie + Ade so far. Why did Tyce even bother choreographing anything there lovely nothing routine.


e: Well I thought that contemporary ballet was incredible. WOW.

She's not Comfort.

Yep, and she showed that when they danced together and she completely killed it.

She kept up, but she didn't out dance Comfort in that performance.

I think she absolutely did out dance her. And not just by a little bit either.

Ricky is (and has been for a while) the obvious 'best'. But Zack is my favourite.

From the girls I don't think I'd have had either Jessica or Valerie as my top two. But several of my favourite girls went out too early for me to really say who my top girls were.

Really good group of dancers this year, though probably less standy-out stand out moments than we've had in the past.

Solos have mostly been a bit meh.



Also re Robert Roland, he seems like a completely different dude to how I remember him as a contestant. Great dancer, but I remember him being a bit awkward/weird/nerdy. Now its like he's been to the same School of 'emotional-enchanting-yet simultaneously totally vacant' that taught Karthryn everything she knows.

I honestly couldn't give drat how they have to sell it to get new seasons, so long as we continue to see loads of great routines.

Yeah, I do get caught up picking my favourites each year. But really I'd still watch if they just played back to back dance routines with no voting at all!
