They always take an extra guy and an extra girl on tour as back ups. It's not always the last two dancers that are eliminated, though.

Thoughts on the new couples? My favorite dance was Jason and Jeanine's (probably because I love that song)

That was incredible. I have already gone back and watched it two more times.

I have also watched the Bollywood dance a few times, though I must admit that I have no idea the technical aspects of that dance. It just looked great on stage.

I really like all of the women left, but suspect that Randi will be leaving and perhaps Kapuno from the guys side, since the judges weren't too favorable on their dance.

It was fun to see Jeanine with a new partner. She is really, really, talented.

And gorgeous! I know Kayla's supposed to be the pretty one this season, but every time I see Janine, I can't get over how beautiful she is.

my favorite 2 girls are randi and melissa
and i like all the boys; jason was at the bottom of my "leaderboard" until tonight's dance....i ♥ travis!!

i think ade and kupono did the best in the boys' group dance...i think brandon and evan are just too white ... lol

bostongreek · #6 07-16-2009, 12:21 PM

I think that Randi is toast now that she doesn't have Evan's fanbase to support her. Guys... I honestly have no idea. For some reason I think it may be Ade, but I really hope I'm wrong.

I am a Jeanine fan, too! I think Randi is going home - but not sure about the boys.

I really like Debbie Allen but kind of chuckled at some of her more 'touchy feelie' critiques. She really waxed poetic at times!

I love evan. End. of. story.

I liked every dance except for the Paso Doble. I think Randi and Kupono are both likely to be going buh-bye tonight.

Wooooooooo...Jason and Jeanine were steamy!!! That was an awesome routine by Travis and J&J danced their behinds off. Just excellent.

I love, love, loved Janette and Ade's Hip Hop. I think it was so fun and clever of Nap&Tab to use Ade's hair pick, lol. J&A did an extraordinary job.

Brandon and Melissa's Broadway was solid, and I even enjoyed Evan and Kayla's Waltz (although - yet again - she's barefoot, lol)...it might not have been technically great, but I thought the choreography was pretty and that they actually worked well together despite the height difference.

As for the group numbers, I thought the girls did a better job as a whole than the boys. I was actually a bit bored by the African dance.

I would love to see a Janette/Jeanine finale. Fingers crossed.

I love Kupono and Jeanette - if either of them goes I'll be so sad! My husband really likes Evan and Jeanine. We laugh because he looks a lot like Kupono and I look kind of like Jeanine. That must be why we keep voting for them. lol

I don't think Ade and Randi have the personality to win the votes, although I adore both of them as dancers. And I have been thinking the same thing about Kayla being barefoot - no excuses next week, please!

I didn't catch last night's episode. I thought for sure someone would've posted the results here by now!

...heading off to google...

Looks like you called it, Leslie! I'll miss Randi.
Jeanine and Janette are my two favorites at this point. As long as Kalya doesn't win, though, I'll be happy.

I loved Jeanine and Jason. I was really happy to see both of them do so well. I think Jason was stuck with a lot of weird dances and/or ones that didn't go over so well with the audience (the pregnant alien!!). And I'm happy that Jeanine was able to work with someone other than Phillip. She really needed someone who knew what they were doing technically so that her talent could truly be seen.

And I love Travis.

I'm not too surprised by the results last night. My prediction was for Randi, Melissa, Kupono and Evan to be in the bottom 4. I wasn't too far off. I know Evan has a huge fan base, but I think he's better fit for Broadway, not to ride out this competition to the end.

My prediction (and hope) for the final 4 is Janette, Jeanine, Brandon and Jason.

My thoughts exactly.

Last night was pretty predictable, but I think next week will be harder to call. The people that are left are pretty solid (although I agree with AST about Evan), and I think the judges' preferences will play a bigger part next time. My early guess is Melissa, Ade, Evan, and Kayla in the bottom next week unless someone really has a stinker of a performance.

Oh, and who looked at Cat Deeley last night and decided it was ok for her to walk on stage looking the way she was? She really seems to have some off days. She looked gorgeous on Wednesday night. But then she came out Thursday wearing that ugly, sparkly dress with huge shoulders, and her hair looked frizzy and flat.

Just an observation.
