SYTYCD Top 20 review
I'm a little behind. I'm posting these things as fast as I can type them up. Well, finish typing them up. This one I did while I was watching. But yeah.
-Hate Susie. Ew.
-Rayven is cool. I like ballerinas. I miss Jessica from Season 2.
-Oh I love it when Dan Karaty is judging because it means he isn’t choreographing.
-Dan, this season is up for grabs because no one is any good! There’s no standouts because you cut all the good ones!
-No, Nigel. Cat isn’t stunning. Her dress is not pretty. Although it’s certainly not the worst I’ve seen.
-Comfort looked so different with her curly hair. I like this straight hair better. With the curly she actually looked like Luam, this hip hop dancer I took a class with at the Pulse. I thought it was her and I was like “Now THAT isn’t fair at all.”
-Ew, Kherington does fuatees. That could be Kourtni. Either way. Ew.
-I like this music for the Top 20 montage.
-Rayven and Jamie: I adore Rayven. I don’t care that she’s 28. She’s fantastic and I love pointe and I love her.
-Jamie has a girlfriend? Whoops! Totally thought he was gay.
-Okay, not liking this dance. They’re smiling too much. And I don’t get it. Hey, French Bewitched couple, wtf? I do not understand your concept. And no, we do not pull pants down. That was Benji’s thing, and it was dumb.
-Dan, you can’t call this Cotton Candy Hip Hop. YOUR work is cotton candy hip hop. Aka bad.
-But he’s actually a good judge.
-Suzee- Not good at all!!! WHY?!?! Why is she here? Her kids would have inspiration? Yeah, on how to be a whore!! As a ballroom dancer, she never straightens her knees. I don’t get why she is here?
-Marquis- Family issues for not dancing? Dad probably didn’t like it, I’m guessing.
-The smooth waltz: Music sounds like A Whole New World in rehearsals. OOOOH I LOVE THIS SONG!!! I have it and I sing it all the time! Straighten your knees bitch! The pink hair totally ruins the ballroom look for me. A lot. Whoops, Totally messed that lift up. Aaaaaand THROW her on the ground.
-I think the choreography this year is absolutely terrible so far.
-Nigel, the audience TOTALLY knew they didn’t get the lift right. Give us more credit.
-Mary, you really think they pulled it off? I don’t get it. I feel like the judges are trying too hard to be encouraging.
-Kourtni with a K and an I. I don’t get her haircut. I feel like she was going for Mia hair, but didn’t quite figure it out.
-Ooh I adore Matt. Nice lines.
-YES! Jazz with Mandy Moore. I really like her choreography. Let’s see how this one goes.
-Mandy ADORES techno 80s music. Just like Mia is all about the Imogen. Guess everyone has a thing.
-I’m afraid I don’t get this one either. Either I’m really stupid this year, or the choreographers aren’t rocking it.
-Ew, Nigel. Don’t talk about broomsticks and booties. Not nice. Ugh. Yuck yuck yuck.
-Okay, we just spent all of Kourtni’s judging talking about how she looks like various celebrities.
-Yes, Mary. I agree the lift looked like work. No, Mary. Kourtni didn’t look sexy. I thought that outfit looked horrendous.
-OH! Denied the hot tamale train! HAH!
-… Wow. Dan is actually a very good judge.
-Ew. Kourtni just looked like Lacey for a moment.
-Wow, Mark is only like, an inch taller than Cat. So weird.
-Chelsea T. looks like Martha a little bit. Maybe it’s the haircut. Her face doesn’t look like Martha. (and I mean S2 Martha, not DW Martha)
-Thayne- Awww, I hate when guys quit dancing because they get made fun of. … But he looks a little like Benji.
-AHHHH! Scary Bette Midler lady! Run Pasha, Run!!!
-I dance to this at my ballroom class. Er, danced. I think Chelsea killed Big Bird for her costume. Ew, bad split. You’re a contemporary dancer Chelsea, straighter your knees. But she’s doing very good at the one leg bent, one straight thing.
-This is the first routine that I found show worthy. Tony Meredith doesn’t really disappoint. That reminds me, I miss Alex Da Silva. Where is he?
-Chelsea reminds me of somebody. Who is it?!?! It’s in her eyes. Thayne just reminds me of Benji. Ouch. Make it stop.
-First Tamale Train of the season! Take that Kourtni.
-It amuses me how many repeat names are in this season. Clearly we will have to eliminate one of each pretty quickly.
-Kherington and Twitch? Chelsea H and Mark?
-I don’t mind Chelsea H. But I think she’s working too hard for sympathy from her “family situation” and she doesn’t explain what it is. Last year, Jaimie’s mother had passed away and she never once mentioned it. She wasn’t looking for sympathy.
-Love Mark and his Bohemian Rhapsody.
-BAHAHA Tim Burton’s wedding! She totally did this for Mark.
-You can’t see the amazing lifts because her dress is too poofy.
-Another nice routine from Mia. Not as memorable as others, but I definitely got the story.
-Mark has sticky out ears like Jamie Bell. :)
-Oh Dan. “What it must be to take a trip inside Mia Michaels’ head.”
-So far this is my favorite routine, but it’s a Mia routine. Hers are always gonna be your favorite.
-How come we have to deal with a freaking gum ad while watching Twitch and Kherington’s beginning thing?
-You know, I would have given ANYTHING to skip my high school graduation. So people need to stop complaining about it.
-Yay for Tyce! No, he wouldn’t lie. When I took the intensive with him, he was brutally honest. But I loved it.
-I don’t like Tyce’s “sexy” Broadway routines. Ah, there we go. Flappy hands. Kherington dances with her mouth open ALL the time. Close your mouth girl. Stop catching flies.
-I think Kherington is one of those dancers you have to see in person. Cause they keep talking about her spirit and blah blah blah but I don’t see it. Although with Donyelle I could see it on her face. I can’t with Kherington. I just don’t get her.
-I don’t like it when girls grab their junk when dancing hip hop. Mostly because they don’t have junk to grab.
-Oh Chris is the one who got all cute and excited when he got in.
-Tony again. Oooh, Jive. I like Jive. I will admit nothing can compare to Danny and Anya, and yes, I am biased.
-Haha, I paused the tv to answer the phone, and it was right when it looked like Chris was about to grab Comfort’s ass.
-Okay, back on. Yup, he did grab Comfort’s ass. It’s okay, he’s gay. My gay friends do that all the time.
-Comfort is adorable. “My shoulder went click click!” Either she has AMAZING pain tolerance, or that dislocation was really no big deal. Because my cousin dislocated her shoulder and needed surgery. Of course, she did it falling off a horse, so.
-I will refer to Chris as I Am Not A Tree!!! Or IANAT for short.
-Oh yeah, the dance. Eh. It was okay.
-I don’t like Katee but I LOVE Joshua. So we’ll see how this pairing works out.
-I love that Josh has braces.
-Interesting story for a hip-hop…
-Hot dog, they pulled it off! Of course, I felt like I was watching a contemporary piece. Hah, Josh did Twitch’s move.
-Dan is a good judge! I like when he mentioned the unison parts, cause they were very good.
-Jessica can’t spell Vegas. Dumb bitch. I really don’t like her. And it all comes down to her immaturity and mooning that guy in Vegas week. And I hate her.
-Cat, do not speak for me. We do NOT like this pairing.
-Why are they getting so much praise? It wasn’t that great. At least I didn’t think so.
-And I still don’t think Will should be allowed in if Debbie Allen is a judge. She’s not allowed to judge Top 20, but she can judge Vegas week, which is arguably more important because it DECIDES the Top 20. Okay, I’m not saying he shouldn’t be allowed, I’m saying SHE shouldn’t be allowed. She shouldn’t have judged Vegas.
-Courtney G is a great dancer, but there’s something very Lauren-esque about her. And I don’t like that.
-Gev is adorable.
-I hate Disco. Seriously. I’m not going to enjoy any disco routine because they always look so freakin easy. And because my mom is always going “I can do that!!!” Because she did it back in her day. Yawn.
So, favorite of the night is Mark and Chelsea H’s Contemporary, and Josh and Katee’s Hip-Hop.
No predictions for who’s going home. Honestly, lots of people were bad.

FUCK YOU JUDGES! Everything that put Rayven and Jamie in the bottom was beyond their control, according to you, and you still eliminate them? Going first, not their fault. Pulling down Jamie’s pants, choreography’s fault. Um, yeah. I can understand Rayven because she didn’t go on pointe, but I don’t get Jamie. There are THOUSANDS of contemporary guys. Jamie is the ONE ballroom guy.
Good work asshats. Get rid of two of the only unique dancers. Jessica SO should have gone home.
-Hate Susie. Ew.
-Rayven is cool. I like ballerinas. I miss Jessica from Season 2.
