Hey Folks, it's Dance Time! Cat is again rocking the shiny, although I preferred her previous shineness. This one looks a wee bit disheveled. Tonight's group number is Asian themed, danced to Janet Jackson, and featuring the girls all dressed up vaguely like Geishas. If I had to guess, I'd say Brian Friedman did this one, but honestly, I'm not feeling this one all that much. Kayla and Jeanine stand out to me. But not by that wide of a margin. That was a Wade and Amanda? Really? Maybe I'll have to rewatch, but it's meh for a Wade... Cat mentions the show’s four Emmy nominations, but I wish they’d mention how preposterous it is that Cat was snubbed. Our Jidges are back, except, wait, Nigel's not there! He's graduating and getting an honorary degree, so it's Ladies' Night on SYTYCD! Is the feeling right?
Note: As always, this is a quick recap. For a version with more words, head to sytycd.ca
The girls result are up first. Janette is safe first, before Randi face tells everyone that she’s in the bottom before Cat even has to announce it. Jeanine is safe next, and between Kayla and Melissa, the final spot of safety goes to Kayla.
The boys are up after the break and Jason is quickly sent to safety. Evan is next and I’m surprised, because he’s safe too. His popularity must be bigger than I thought. Pono is completely not surprised that he’s in the bottom. And I am FLABBERGASTED and VERY UPSET that Ade is the other member of our bottom 2. People, this is unacceptable.
When we get back, Cat tells us all about next week’s special shenanigans. Mia Michaels and Ellen Degeneres are gonna be on the panel, there’ll be new performances of a few old favorite routines. Plus, that Katie Holmes person, whoever that is.
Everyone in the bottom gets a chance to solo again.
Randi's solo is better tonight, probably because she's accepted the fact that she's going home. She seems more peaceful this time. Mary says Randi wasn't memorable, yet somehow thinks this could be construed as a compliment. Debbie thought Randi's solo was powerful last night, but thinks she looks better tonight. She's also had enough of the Paso Doble, which, after last night's performance, I totally get it. She may also call it a Paso Dobly
Kupono's solo is next, and again, it's good. He also may know his fate, especially if he's against Ade in the bottom two. But he just seems to have more fun with it this time. Mary has no idea what's gone wrong with Kupono. He's a bad seed, I tell ya! A Bad Seed! She then says he didn't do good enough last night, and his solo kinda sucked too.
The next soloist is Melissa. Her solo shows off her ballet pointe and other ballet-ness both heavily and quite well. Overall, it's better than Randi's solo. Debbie thinks America is getting spoiled, aka Melissa is getting lost in the cracks and tells her to step up her solo.
I'm going to make the best of a bad solo and just enjoy that Ade gets to solo again. Because yet again, it's utterly Amazing and Fantastic. Although he's a little shakier on the backflip this time. Mary says Ade is a star, and Mary has no idea what he can do differently, since clearly America is as blind as the Emmy nominating panel.
Next up performing is the Black Eyed Peas, who I no longer consider a musical group because any group that unleashed "Boom Boom Pow" on the world I don't think can be considered "musicians." They're performing "I Gotta Feeling", which does absolutely nothing to change my opinion. At least this one has a melody? A back-up dancer emerges out of the crowd, but it seems more just like some girl jumped up on stage and joined them than anything clever. OMG, did I just hear them say "Mazel Tov"? This is terrible. To think I once mildly liked them. I will say it's high energy though.
The girls’ results are up first. The girl going home tonight is... Randi. She knew it, and seems if not to be fine with, to at least accept it.
The boys are next. If there is any justice in this show, Ade will be safe. But I have no faith, and am on pins and needles. The boy going home is... Kupono. Phew. I mean, my favorite is saved and my least favorite is gone. Not gonna lie, I'm very happy about that result. Cat plugs next weeks festivities before signing off for the week…
