So Mia's dance she choreographed for Lacey and Neil... beyond beautiful. Mia Michaels is hands down my favourite choreographer... she's just beyond amazing.

I want to see Lauren and Dom go tomorrow.

Wow Pasha and Sabra were on fire tonight! I wonder why Broadway and Quickstep were on the same card though, because they're kind of similar styles. You'd think you'd want each card to have 2 very different styles on them. I liked the Tango that Danny and Sara did and also the Mia Michaels piece performed by Lacey and Neil.

I also would like to see Lauren and Dominic go tomorrow. Despite their improvement tonight, they are still at the bottom. After they are gone, there are 3 very solid guys and 3 very solid girls left so it will be interesting to see what happens.

Am I the only one that's totally disgusted by Dominic and Lauren's kiss at the end?

I hope they go.

So, I think it was a lovely piece. But I think the backstory made people think it was a lot better than it really was. I mean, they did a good job and all, but I don't think people would have been as moved by it and thought it was so great if the intro piece had just said, "It's about reunion." I enjoyed it, but didn't think it was as great as everyone else did.

The Boradway and QuickStep comments - they aren't actually similar at all. Those 2 pieces just happened to be similar. The Quickstep is a couples dance and has a lot to do with the posture/hold and rhythmic foot movement. Broadway can be anyting. That piece happened to be fast and have some "swing" type movements like that particular quickstep had. If it had been more like a number from West Side Story, it would have looked completely different from the Quickstep perfromed.

All that said, I'd like Lauren and Dom or Neil to go home.

Agreed, but don't you think the choreographers already had the dances done, so knowing that they would be similar, they should have separated them?

That's a good point - but I wonder if they have any clue what the others are doing? The show should make a point of it, but with only a week in between live shows and the busy lives the choreographers have outside of this show, maybe they don't get them on the same page?

Glad Sarah and Dom are gone. Would have preferred it being Lauren, but I think next week is her week.

Also, random note, the red-headed lady who assists the ballroom guy (she also danced with Pasha when his partner got sick) was on What Not To Wear. She seemed really funny and cool on that, but she seems a bit bitchy on this show...Maybe b/c they give the assts. no recognition!

i think the choreographers have a few dances in their head for the week and then decide which one to use when they know which dancers they have. like i think the rhumba would have been a different piece if lacey or pasha had picked it.

I was sad to see Sara go, but if she didn't go this week, she would've gone next week.

I was thinking the same thing.

Lauren is my next obvious girl to go, but I don't know which of the guys should go. I dislike Danny's personality, but he's a beautiful dancer.

I wasn't as impressed with the dances this year as I was last year. I wasn't wowed by any of them the way I was last year with the Heidi/Benji Salsa and the Travis/Benji Hip Hop.

What was up with Wade's fox routine??? Random.

I want Sabra to win but I think it will be Lacey.

I agree with you on the whole not impressed thing.... I thought last year's was wayyyy better (i think the dancing was too though...)

I want sabra to win but i think it'll prob be lacey too.

I wasn't a Benji fan last year (I don't appreciate solo swing), but I LOVED Travis. This year I liked Lacey the most for a long time (despite my swing distaste), but now I don't know who I want to win, prob not Lacey though.

Sabra's just awesome... And then Neil and Danny both have that amazing male dancer thing, were everything they do just looks beautiful and amazing. I actually like the two guys better. And between them, I like Danny's technique, but Neil's personality.
