So You Think ... SYTYCD 2011

[sparks19]

Was anyone else disappointed tonight?

The show was 2 hours lOng for only 7 couples and each dance was only one and a half minutes? So there wasnt even a half an hour of dancing in a two hour show? The dances were all so short that it seemed like they didnt even get a chance to do anything worth remembering. Very disappointed tonight

Definitely not my favorite show of the season! I didn't really like Marko and Melanie's routine, although they did amazing with the choreography they were given. My favorite dance was Caitlynn and Mitchell (Caitlynn is my second favorite girl), that was incredible. And, surprisingly, my next favorite dance was the David Bowie "Fashion" routine with Ryan (my least favorite girl) and Ricky. LOVED it. I also really liked the waltz with Jordyn and Tadd. And, although I didn't love the salsa, I have to give props to the lifts! Yikes! Those were crazy!

I really liked the guys and girls group routines, those were awesome.

Overall, though, I felt the night was mediocre. I enjoyed hearing about the contestants' families and backgrounds, but the show was too long! Thank goodness for DVR, I watched the whole thing in less than an hour.

I thought the Zombie routine was well-danced by Ricky, but didn't anyone else notice that Ryan didn't extend her leg nearly as high or as far as his several times? Didn't love the salsa, but though they tried really hard, and while I thought Clarice and Jess did better this time than they have before, I was not impressed overall. I liked the siren routine and thought Jordan did a much better job this time. I do hope Sasha and Alexander are not in the bottom, though it wasn't their best, they are both great dancers.

Just my 2 cents!

yeah definitely no need for that to have been a TWO hour show. there was so much fluff I almost couldn't stand it. I eventually stopped watching in real time and watched something else so I could go to my DVR and fast forward through all the nonsense stuff.

7 couples, 1 and a half minute routines, plus two extra dances. so that's only like 15 minutes of dancing for a TWO HOUR SHOW? that's a bit much.

My issue with Ryan is that she's totally in her head. It's like she's not at all connected to her body. I bet that if she let herself feel, she would be not only be totally overcome with whatever emotion she pushes down, but would also make magic on stage.

So far, Marko and Tadd are my favourite guys, and Melanie is my favourite girl. I really don't like Ashley, and felt that she should have gone home last week over Miranda. My predictions for tonight, is that Chris will leave for the guys and I'm hoping Ashley is done for the girls.

I agree with who went home, although I'm still not a fan of Ryan's. With that being said, her routine with Ricky was my second favorite last night. I really don't like the whole couples thing, I'd like to see it done like last season. I could really focus on the individual dancers, not the pairings.

After next week they will be dancing with returning contestants from prior seasons. So that should be good.

I feel like they are purposely (sp?) sending home couples that are paired together. I was actually wanting to see Ricky go home tonight. I thought all three guys did good on their solo dances....Ricky being my least favorite routine of the three. For the girls I only liked Jordan's routine. Ryan looked like she was just throwing herself all around the stage.

I enjoyed seeing the background on the contestants. I didn't realize Ashley is from Antioch.....only about 20 minutes from me. And Ryan is from Morgan Hill, also close to me. That was cool.

Oh, and I made a mistake earlier (I think I posted it here) that Melanie was married. Oops! Don't know where I got that.

Melanie and Marko are my favorite couple with Jordan and Tadd coming in next.
