We've got a winner!

Once again I'm super late with my SYTYCD post but what ya gonna do!  Melaine won it!

I know Tadd wasn't going to make it all the way.  But I don't mean that to be ugly.  Tons of props to him for making it to the finale!  That is the farthest a b-boy has ever gone on the show!  I knew they would have first and second place between the two girls!  All of the top 20 are awesome dancers and I know we will be hearing from all of them again.

One thing that surprised me and my daughter when watching the finale....Ryan really stood out.  I don't know if she has been practicing a lot or what.  She was really really good.  I loved all the dances the judges picked at their favorites.  This was one of their best seasons!



The results....8/4

So, America saved all the cheerleaders for their whole bodies covered in hives....Ricky went home.  I will say this:  I know it seems like I am hating on Ricky.  I don't.  He has amazing solos.  But I do believe he needs some more work in partnering and he wasn't good at other genres like the other guys were. 

Caitlynn is amazing.  I love her solos and she really started coming out of her shell the past two weeks.  But compared to Sasha and Melanie, it was a no brainer that she was going home.  I don't think she was surprised.  Ricky on the other hand, seemed floored!  Not sure why he thought he was a sure thing for the finale.

I think America got it right this year and I can't wait to watch this week and see who this years winner is!

The Results....7/28

Oye!  First let me start off with saying I honestly look forward every Wednesday and Thursday cuddling up on the couch and watching the show.  Imagine my surprise when I realized my WHOLE BODY was breaking out in hives right before I watched last nights show.  My happiness was fading.....

As I suspected on SYTYCD, Jordan and Caitlynn were in the bottom 4.  No surprise for me.  Nothing against them, but Sasha and Melanie are ah-mazing.  But, the guys threw me off.  I knew Jess would be in the bottom 4.  When it was between Ricky and Tadd and they said Ricky was safe....I-WAS-NOT-HAPPY!  I even remember saying to my daughter "if Ricky makes it to the finale I hope all his cheerleader groupies get hives all over their bodies too!"  That's right, I'm ugly like that.  I hate that this competition turns into a popularity contest instead of who actually danced/performed the best.

I did say to myself that Caitlynn's solo was better then Jordan's.  But really, both their solos were kind of blah and like every other solo you have seen them do before.  The result was a toss up for me.  Jordan went home.

Then the guys.  I liked Jess's solo and and was kind of ehh about Tadd's, but I love Tadd.  I think overall Tadd is the better dancer.  Jess went home.

After next week we will know who is in the finale.  My guess for the finale is Melanie, Sasha, Marko and Tadd.  Have a wonderful weekend!

The Results 7/21...

I know this is WAY late!  I was busy?  I don't get on the computer till late and I didn't type up the post because the pics were on my work computer and I've gone a year with every post having a photo and I won't stop now.

So, the bottom four were Mitchell, Ricky, Clarice and Jordan.

This year eliminations are so much harder, they really have great talent this year.  But sadly Mitchell and Clarice went home.  I think Clarice went home because she hasn't really done anything to "stand out".  But she is a wonderful dancer and we will hear from her again.  Mitchell is really good, but the other guys are just better.  We will hear from him again to (anyone think he reminds you of Chris Tucker).

I will try and be more on the ball with my SYTYCD recap.  I have to start blogging from home so I emailed the photos I need there, so no excuse.  Can't wait for tonight!!!!

The Results.....7/14

Last nights show.....  I honestly had no idea who America would put in the bottom 3.  And I was surprised by the results.

Caitlynn and Mitchell

Ryan and Ricky

Sasha and Alexander

I kind of thought Caitlynn and Mitchell would be there.  Their hip hop routine wasn't one of their best dances.

Ryan and Ricky I knew would be in the bottom.  For some reason they find themselves there week after week.  I think Ryan did really well but peaked to late in the competition.

Sasha and Alexander I was totally surprised by.  I thought for sure Sasha's fans would vote enough for her.  I think that her and Alexander were surprised as well.  I didn't realize that Sasha was such an emotional person until last weeks results.  She had tears in her eyes the rest of the night.

Who went home?  Ryan and Alexander.  Are we surprised with Ryan?  No.  The judges have been bagging on her for the last couple of weeks and this was her first really good week.  Compared with the other girls on the show....she was the weakest.  Alexander...  While I think he is a good dancer, I've said for weeks if they ever were in the bottom 3 he would be the one to go.  Like Ryan this was is first really good week and compared to the other guys that hold their own week after week, it was his time to go.

Now we have our top 10 dancers that will be going on tour!!!  I say every year I'm going to see them.  This year I really HAVE to!!!!

I am glad that next week we start voting for individuals...and the ALL STARS ARE BACK!!!!  I love all of the all stars coming back.  The only one I haven't seen is the one girl from Season 1 because I didn't watch it religiously then like I do now.

On a side not (totally irrelevant but I think it is funny) my daughter can't remember every ones names so they all have nicknames.  Caitlynn's is "the girl with the perfect bangs".  Don't you just love them!?!?

The Results 7/7....

Late once again...what ya gonna do?  So last Thursday on So You Think You Can Dance America voted.  The bottom three couples to dance for their lives were:

Ashley and Chris

Jordan and Tadd

Ryan and Ricky

I was very surprised with Ryan and Ricky because everyone seemed to love their routine.  For some reason, they are not connecting with America.

So, everyone danced for their lives.  I was very unimpressed with Tadd's solo and Jordan's was also kind of blah as well.  I'm glad when Nigel came back with the decisions that he told ALL of them they needed to step up their solos and quit doing the same thing.  I'm not surprised that Ashley and Chris went home.  It was who I predicted.  I know they will continue to grow and do well with their dancing career.  I can't wait until Wednesday!  Almost time to announce the All-Stars!!

The Results...6/30

Sorry this post is a bit late.  I only worked half a day on Friday and then I was off for a camping weekend.

So who did America vote (or not vote) into the bottom three on So You Think You Can Dance?

• Ashley and Chris
• Miranda and Robert
• Caitlynn and Mitchel

I got 2 out of the 3 couples right, not bad.  They all performed their solos and "danced for their lives".  Since so much time has passed I don't remember everything about every ones solos.  I do remember that when Caitlynn was done with her solo that she had tears in her eyes.

I knew that Mitchel would stay but I was honestly surprised that Robert went home instead of Chris.  I don't feel that Chris is that good, my opinion.  The girls, I wasn't totally surprised.  Miranda is good but someone had to go home and I don't know what it was but I knew it would be her.

This season has amazing dancers.  I don't know if you follow them all on Twitter.  I'm a SYTYCD nerd so I do.  Cat had a 4th of July party for all the SYTYCD dancers, past and present.  From the tweets, it was ALOT of fun.  Until Wednesday.....

Their story has just begun.

The Results....6/23

I blogged ALL last season of So You Think You Can Dance and I have never (NEVER) guess all three of the bottom three correctly....until last night!  I honestly surprised myself.  Usually America and I don't agree when it comes to dancing.  So the six of them had to dance for their lives:

• Wadi
• Missy
• Iveta
• Nick
• Ryan
• Ricky

I didn't think all of them really "danced for their lives".  Some of them their auditions were better.  And I thought who was going home was wrong.  I thought for SURE Ryan was going home and she is the only girl that was saved!  I thought Missy was a favorite of the judges.  But, I'm ok to see Missy go.  Something about her I didn't like.  She's a great dancer and she is going places, now I just don't have to see her face every week.  The guys it was a toss up for me.  I knew Nick was going home for sure.  But I wasn't sure between Ricky and Wadi.  But after they performed their solos I knew hands down Ricky was staying.  I see all the dancers that went home going places.  This year they have exeptional dancers and SYTYCD is just a stepping stone for them.
