PLEASE post your thoughts on tonight’s performance below…
I will do a post tomorrow on the results as well as my thoughts / ranking (I plan to watch BOTH episodes tomorrow after work)
The top 8 are all strong but it’s time for Denitsa and Matt to go home, I think.
I am so over Gustavo Vargas. He keeps talking about how his choreography goes back to the roots of various dances, but he never delivers. Tonight, for example: that was NOT any kind of Brazilian Samba, Gustavo, all you did was take some Ballroom Samba and mash it up with various “Urban” moves. Like those wide-legged stances that look really awkward and unattractive in heels.
Still, Denitsa and Christian salvaged much of it like the pros they are, infusing it with tons of energy.
The most lackluster performance of the night was instead the Contemporary by Lindsay and Shane, which had no energy, no connection, no emotion. It felt really mechanical.
I would say it’s cut and dried those two are going home, EXCEPT… for that Lindsay IMO delivered the best solo out of the girls. So I’m not really sure how this will pan out.
If they get rid of 1 guy and 1 girl… It better be Matt and denitsa… Matt is so terrible he managed to make Melissa look bad… And that has never happened… If 2 guys and 2 girls go home… I hope that Jordan and Melissa go through to the finale… Along with Christian and Shane… With Christian being the best male partner on the show… Except maybe in hip hop??? It would make for the best final possible!!! The last thing I want is for the short legged cumbersome Matt ruining every second dance in the final…
matt needs to go. he has never been in the bottom ONCE even though he desperately needs to land there sometime. new brunswick-ans are really intense voters.
yesterday was very well danced. @Johan, i agree with you about gustavo vargas. i’ve never been to brazil, but that did not look brazilian WHATSOEVER.
I agree as well… Time for sytycdc to shop for a better Latin dance choreographer… His work keeps putting people in jeopardy people who might otherwise shine
I wonder how this show would change if the method or rules for voting changed?
