Grease is awesome until you learn the lyrics of all the songs and realise how many rapey/misogynistic lyrics there are.

I've been watching Grease since I was a little kid so I never thought about the actual words because it feels like I've always known them. But when I went to a Grease singalong as an adult, seeing the words up on the screen made me go WHOA, that's what I've been singing? During Summer Nights, when the words "Did she put up a fight?" came up on the screen, my friend and i (who had both been happily singing along) looked at each other and we were like OMG this is fucked up!

I don’t watch this, but gosh JoJo looks so different without her ponytail. She’s a lovely dancer.

I like Iman, and tries so I’m not mad at him sticking around. Wish Olivia would have gone home.

I hate the way they are voting. They should just alternate between who doesn’t vote each night.

jojo was great like always. But I was most impressed by Kenya. Glad she wasn’t in the bottom. I loved the beginning of Melora but I kinda wish she had a different dance.

I really hate the judges' save. Olivia may have gotten the better score but she's very forgettable to me and I don't think she deserved to be saved over Mel C.

Yup, I completely forgot about Olivia's performance by the time I finished watching all the dances. When I was making the list of celeb names for the poll, I was like oh, right, Olivia's still here.

I hate the stupid Head Judge Len gets 2 votes. If it's tied, it should go to America based on votes.
I'm so sad Mel C left. Why wouldn't she and Val stay, making a new team, and send Olivia and Gleb home.

I'm kinda over these theme nights. It's getting too campy.

Jojo had her best dance. She's much better at slower dances/songs.

Witney gave the Miz a lot of goof content. I really adore him and want him to win.

Melora's facial expressions are perfection during dances. She understands the assignment.

ITA that JoJo is better at the slower dances. I think with the faster dancers she defaults to super energetic which ends up coming off too much like competition cheer with the OMG over the top vibe. Like it's just a little too frantic or something for me. But she was so great at this week's slower dance ( ... )

Jojo really shines with slower dances. She can get a bit too frantic with a faster dance and Jenna also has this same problem. Slow them both down and there's time to show of the quality of her movement and the connection between them. I don't know if the show is going to give them a rumba but I hope they do because I think they'll shine as a couple.
