She can win the local awards, but has no business on a national/televised show like this. I hope that she and the even more useless Comfort leave in the next two weeks. Katee, Chelsie and Courtney, on the other hand, are all very versatile, good dancers. The guys... I don't even really care. I don't hate any of them enough to truly want them gone (like Kherington and Comfort). As long as I don't hate anyone then I can just sit back and watch what happens.

There have been some great dances and great personalities this season, but you guys are too busy drinking hatorade. What the fuck were you expecting, it's season 4 of a cheesy reality TV show competition! Duh it's manufactured! Every season of this show has had its contrived and manipulated moments; I just turn my brain off and watch for the dancers show their talent. I thought that last night's show was good, but not outstanding. I agree that the boat routine was mondo cheese. Best routines: Katee and Will's Pas De Deux Comfort and Twitch's Hip Hop Katee, Mark, Gev, and Joshua's solos Kherington might outlast Comfort this week, and if she does, she should feel very lucky.

She always shoulda went WAY farther than she did. About DialIdol: Spoiler [+] I don't think someone leading in "raw numbers" is a good thing. So as much as I lurve Katee, her being in the top for the females is worrying, since with the more raw numbers you have, it means the less busy their phoneline was. Katee had an amazing solo. I just love the subtle ways she works her fingers like she's crumbling rose petals in her hands. KATEEPWNAGE is still DOMINATING. <333 Gev's solo was another fantastic one for me, as were Josh/Mark's, and unpopular opinion probably, I really liked Courtney's. None of these solos are ever going to play a part in saving someone in voting unless they pull a Shauna and blow everyone away.

Only on top 4 night, usually. The call volume isn't as high as AI, where the busy signals number (and consequently the DI score) actually matters. I just looked back over their data for the past three seasons and only once has the person in lead with raw numbers actually gone home (Sara last year). Otherwise the person on top is usually safe to stay. Whereas the busy signals do not demonstrate a similar noticeable pattern. So I think (and hope) the person you are concerned about will be fine tonight.

Comfort shouldn't even be there at all so she can leave whenever. Courtney is underrated and so is Gev. Courtney did a great job with Joshua. Still loving Will in spite of that 2-step. Right now I'm looking forward to a Chelsie/Joshua pairing. They both do an amazing job of getting into character. Onstage, Joshua is super strong, macho, and he looks like he could kick your ass. But offstage...big old teddy bear. Chelsie is one hot mama while performing, and in her interviews, she's so flat and "omg I totally have senioritis...let's go get baked." Katee should win it all though.

He was good but she dragged him down. On the flip side, Faina was fantastic in the foxtrot with Cedric. He dragged her down and she didn't even deserve to be bottom 3 based on her own performance... I don't give a rat's ass how good a solo is (not that I think that Shauna's were THAT good, anyway) -- no way should somebody who was awful on performance night stay over somebody who was great.

Oh please. If I hear something is the second coming by an audience member then I think it is going to surpass anything else seen. Their hip hop was really good and I enjoyed it. Was it the best one ever? No. And that is weak and unfair to the show how? What are your thoughts on weak and unfair to the show in OTT praise and pimpage for some dancers.

Shauna did great in week one with Jimmy in Broadway. Overall, Shauna did better over the course of those two weeks then Faina. Having a great solo (IMO, since you disagree) was just icing on the cake. If Comfort makes it past this week, watch her get paired with Mark next time.

I must admit, even thought I really liked Shane's tranformers number, I'm kinda confused as to why is was nominated over certain other routines. The other two dances, though (table routine and hummingbird/flower one) absolutely deserved it. I am a little surprised that Mia's Kameron/Lacey dance didn't get anything, but who cares. At least her dead father dance was ignored, and it might be a wake up call that she is not the centre of artistry as we know it.

I am oh so very happy that Mia didn't get a nom. I hope she isn't judging next week, she'll be extra extra cunty.

Shauna was the worst of the 9 girls on week 2 performance night. For that reason, she should have gone home. Faina was NOT the worst of the girls on week 1 performance night. That is why she was spared and that tall girl who danced with Jimmy went home. I'm not sure how Faina staying on a week she wasn't the worst (week 1) has any impact as to why she should leave over the girl who WAS the worst the following week...

Solos might not mean much this season at all in terms of the judges taking them into account, but previously, the judges actually took them into consideration, even if it was a mere 50% of the time.
