So You Think You Can Dance: Season 4

[Fleur de Lis]

I agree with everything you just wrote!!!

I think the best and worst dancers are quickly separating, and I hope when the worst are gone, the choreography will drastically improve.

Random thing, Kherington reminded me of Mariska Hargitay during the Paso Doble. But I'm a big fan of her and Twitch, and Chelsie and Mark. I was really pulling for Kourtni and Matt, but they just lost it tonight. And this was the first night I was impressed with Katee. Jessica still needs to go.

And the WTF of the night goes to Cat Deely's ensemble.

This year has been kinda blah for me. In the past years, I've found that the majority of the routines are really good and there's maybe one or two where my untrained eye noticed the dancers' mistakes. This season, there's maybe one or two routines that are good and the rest have a bunch of missed connections and slip-ups. This used to be one of my favorite shows and now I'm sorta indifferent towards it. I don't know what happened. I don't think they have as charismatic of dancers this year and the choreography sucks.

I don't see why the judges tongue-bathe Comfort during every performance. To me, she looks stiff and awkward...even when she did hip hop which is her speciality. I feel like they constantly give her a free pass that they don't give to the other dancers by saying, "It was really good for a hip-hopper!" I was glad that Nigel finally said something last night.

I am still enjoying the season so far, but I agree with some of the comments that others are making. I don't feel like the majority of the original top 20 were/are memorable. Last season, I liked all but 2-3 couples...this year I am only pulling for 3-4 couples. I don't think all the routines are boring, but I think they are introducing too many new choreographers at once. I love Tabitha and Napoleon; they've replaced Shane Sparks very well IMO. But, I miss Wade...they need a good pop choreographer.

My top three last night:
1. Chelsie and Mark
2. Katee and Joshua
3. Twitch and Kherrington

I bummed that I can't put Courtney and Gev in my top 3 this week (they are two of my favorites in the competition), but neither of their routines were fantastic where as the other three couples each had a stand-out dance.

Bottom 3:
1. Thayne and Comfort
2. Will and Jessica
3. Kourtni and Matt

Will obviously isn't going anywhere. I don't think Comfort is that special (Sarah from last year was certainly better), but the judges seem to love her, so she will stay. I still think Jessica sucks. And, I am still bitter that she made it and Kelli Baker (the choreographer's daughter) didn't. I can't decide if I think the judges will kick Jessica and Thayne to the curb tonight, or if they'll give them each one more chance and ax Kourtni and Matt, the perpetual bottom-dwellers.
