good episode.. it really contrasted the evolution of the show since season 1.. I still think that Jamile and Destini's hop hop routine is the best hip hop routine ever on the show across all seasons so I was glad that it got showcased...

The only dance that I didnt like that was shown was Lauren and Pasha's transformer routine..it was ok but not outstanding i would have preferred Sara and Pasha's West Coast Swing.

And Nigel's favorite routine ever was Ade and Melissa's breast cancer dance..

I loved that last night! I had forgotten some of those dances - my favorite was the Mia Michaels dance with Katy and ? (the winner last year) with the assisted running move. So pretty!

Also, Benjy and his cousin are better at the mambo than ANYbody since - it's not even fair!!

I agreed with a lot of the routines that were chosen. I was shocked that the Mercy/Door routine (with Katie and Twitch) wasn't one of the ones chosen...and I also could have done without Pasha and Lauren's Transformer routine, as well as Ivan and Allison's contemporary. I think they tried to highlight the majority of the choreographers and pick most of the Emmy nominated/winning routines.

They're overplaying a few of those dances. The bench dance is great, but come on, they show it all the time....and the hummingbird and flower dance, too. And I don't really care for the Transformer dance, either.

I was so excited to see Nick and Melody's Broadway!!! That's one of my all-time faves!!! Along with Ivan and Allison's contemporary!

I really liked the breakdancer they highlighed at the end.

I'm sure that they get thousands of contemporary auditions, but I wish they'd vary the styles that are shown. I get sick of watching 10 contemporary people and only one or two people in a different style. After a while, I'd rather see a mediocre ballroom couple or hip hopper than a contemporary.

I agree! After last season, which to me was the season of the contemporary dancer, I'd like to see some other genres highlighted.
