I Just Can’t Pick One
The dancers on So You Think You Can Dance are so fucking amazing. Normally by this point I’d see a clear winner emerging. But this year? SERIOUSLY, people.
Tonight’s dances were just ok until the last few. Then it was like BAM! Out come Jeanine and Brandon and change the game. The war dance was so great. The intensity and the power.
Then there was Tyce’s ode to breast cancer. I mean, really, really RI-DIC-U-LOUS. The concept, the execution the everything. Not only was the choerography and the message moving, he had the two perfect dancers to perform it. Ade, the powerhouse embodyment of strength and Melissa, the delicate, pasty white ballerina as the patient. Truly, truly amazing.
And then the Shane Sparks hip-hop that ended the show with Kayla and Jason. So great! The popping was hard, they were totally in sync and in character. Just perfection.
Until I saw the Tyce routine I thought for sure Melissa was out of there but now I don’t know. The girls are all so good! Really, Jeanine is so strong and dances like she IS the dance. Kayla can simply do anything plus she’s stunning. I would eat babies to have her legs. Janette is a little spicy tamale that can do any damn thing you give her. And Melissa just did a routine that made freakin’ Nigel cry. I mean, OH MY DAMN.
And the dudes? I’m still not sold on Evan as a partner. I think he’d be great on Broadway, but in partner dancing and over all? No. Ade? Holy mother of chocolate is he fantastic. He’s cool and smooth and giant and he just throws those chicks around like they are dolls. His flips and jumps and kicks are incredible. And he’s got this sweetness about him. Brandon is a fantastic dancer, but I can’t put my finger on what I don’t like about him. Just something bugs me, but he is amazing. And Jason is so effin’ cute and sweet and his technique is fabulous. He’s got the best feet on a dude I’ve seen since Travis.
So, who do I pick? I don’t know. They are all fucking fabulous. Can we split the prize, like, 8 ways?
Also, fair warning! I may have a new TV addiction. I watched the first two episodes of Mad Men and I love it. Whoever the creator and producer is, I tip my hat. The sets and the clothing and the authenticity of the time is WILD. I love it. And, after seeing that, if I lived in the 1950’s, I might have gone to jail for knocking the shit out of asshole sexist men. There is one scene where the head steno chick is showing a new girl around the steno pool. She rips off the cover of a typewriter to reveal it and an intercom. She tells the new girl something like “I know it looks high-tech and complicated, but it’s really not. They make them simple enough for women to understand.” And everyone smokes everywhere. It’s so odd to see.
I’m going to leave you with this for Katie. She’s officially a Bones fan and wants lick David Boreanez. I’m turning people, one at a time. mwahahahaha.
Lick lick-
Ali
Holly mother of pearl, LICK ME OFF A PIECE OF THAT!!! Woooo girl. He is one fine, fuckin’ man.
I’m seeing SYTYCD tomorrow, since I recorded it. I’m super excited to see Tyce’s piece. From what you and Di have said, I cannot imagine the beauty and the intensity of it. I will be sure to have my kleenex ready lol.
He was even finer in Buffy. Specially that one episode where he fell from the sky nekkid. WOOOOOHOOOOO!
I want to throw him down and do naught, naughty things to him. tee-hee.
Is it really that difficult to turn people on to our Angel? I think he does a good enough job of that on his own. That being said, thanks for a wonderful jump-start to my day. Yummy.
Y’all are all so funny. The main thing about this blog was So You Think You Can Dance and all comments are about hottie mchotpants up there.
I have dirty dirty thoughts about him. Dirty. And I’m loving it.
PS – I’m leaving the blog open all day so I can admire.
Still here – I think I’ll post comments all day.
Ha! Please do. If I didn’t think people would look at me weird, I’d make him my desktop background. However, I can’t be that lame at work. At home, though….
Yup, still here. Still enamored. I’ve considered the desktop thing..but prolly unprofessional?
I’ll talk about SYTYCD if you want!

As you know, I haven’t gotten a chance to watch it regularly this season, but I did sit through the whole show last night. I agree with everything you said and I can’t pick a favorite, either. Agreed that Evan will be AMAZING on Broadway, but otherwise, he’s not on my ‘win’ list. Other than him, though, they’re all fabulous and I think the next few weeks will be interesting.
The Tyce number… girl. I know you ‘warned’ me, but I was SO not prepared for that. I cried all through the intro, the dance, the critique… and I couldn’t shake it for the rest of the night. I was still even ’sniffly’ when I went to bed. It was just such a moving piece and I thank GOD that they ended with a Shane Sparks routine or I might have just cried all night. I’ve seen Nigel get choked up before, but never like that. Mary cries at everything, but even she got to me. Mia, as well. If Tyce doesn’t win an Emmy for that, I’ll be pissed.
Can’t wait for the show tonight, though. Best dances of all the seasons and a Wade Robson routine? Woohoo! The reminder is set and everything… so there’s no way I’ll miss it.
And as far as David Boreanez… you crazy (in a good way). Has he taken the lead over Ryan Reynolds as far as guys you want to lick?

Love you!
Katie- if Kristy can have Yoda I think you can have David.
Dianne- I knew it would get to you. Also, yes, I think he’s surpassed Ryan Reynolds. I’d still lick him like nobodies bidness if I had the chance, though.
He still doesn’t suck. Ah…
i was going to leave a comment, but I’m so sleepy after lunch I’m going to nap.
i love SYTYCD!!!!!!!
as for man candy he’s hot.
work hard I’m going to work hard with my eyes closed. madeline is doing the same!
Every few hours I go back to my open browser and am pleased. I got distracted by work a bit … but now I’m back to dirty thoughts.
Here’s some real “man candy” for you.
