Besides, Evan vs Jeanine would have been even more dramatic, because they would have played it as a "good vs evil" or "deserving vs undeserving" sort of thing.

I thought they actually said that Evan had the third highest votes.

They are much better at not pimping out the stories behind the contestants than Idol does. I was suprised at how little we heard of Vitolio's journey considering. His story was tragic. If he was on Idol it would have been mentioned until there was a public backlash. |

I love Jeanine even more now!
She was so funny, beautiful and obviously a really stand up person. <3333 |

I've been kind of thinking this all season but I really noticed it the other night when Jeanine was performing... does anyone else think she kind of looks
like (a much more attractive version of) Youtube legend Miranda Sings, especially when she's wearing heavy makeup like Miranda does?
And even moreso in this pic when she's not in the Miranda character:

Philip's partner beat Brandon!?!?
I stopped watching weeks ago, but now I wish I hadn't. Good for her. |

Even though pretty much everyone in the Top 10 that year (minus Ivan) deserved to win over Benji, Season 2 will always be remembered as the season that Alison-Shoulda-Fucken-Won-Fuck. I miss her high-tech improvised wild solos of ferocious hippy lesbianism: Season 5 would've been known as the season that Jeanette-Shoulda-Fucken-Won-Fuck if Jeanine didn't redeem the show. Jeanine went from a nondescript nobody whitey girl to a winner-fierce warrior princess even when saddled with a dead weight limited partner for half the season. Obvi-lee that's why she didn't have as many memorable routines as Brandon or Kayla, though I thought she kkkilled her hip-hops with Phillip so whatevia.... |

If we're talking about F8 girls who should've won, can we include Sara > Sabra? Allison, Sara and Jeanette ought to have been in the F4 if not the
F1.

Don't forget Heidi, Lacey and Melody. All better than Jeanine, IMO...

Oh, definitely. I was just referring to Top 8 girls. I would've picked Allison, Heidi, Lacey, Sara, Katee, Chelsie and Jeanette as more-than-adequate women winners. |

God Janette is fuckin overrated. She was a one trick pony people.
Jeanine was a THOUSAND times more versatile than Janette. Don't get me wrong, Janette is great... but IMO Jeanine is better. |

Romber Rulz wrote: Yeah, cuz the great job Janette did in the foxtrot, the disco, the tango, the Wade piece, and the rocker hip hop were all exactly the same. She was tremendously versatile! Jeanine was versatile, too, but her only truly great performance was in her own style (the Travis piece with Jason). Yeah, Janette wasn't great with Ade or with Evan, but perhaps that is because they weren't good partners. For the record, Jeanine was terrible with Ade and not great with Evan, either... |

My problem with Jeanine winning is that it was so anticlimactic.
The same thing happened with Kris Allen for me. Loved him and wanted him to win but his win was just painfully devoid of any feel-good emotions. I think it's because I had never seen her before and she had no story so her winning just didn't carry any conclusion. |

All Janette ever did was her hot miami latino thing... Jeanine mixed it up.

Drew B wrote:I like Janette a lot and think she was one of the top five best performers/dancers this season.The tango was near perfect and deserving of all the accolades that it got. I also liked the foxtrot a lot and put her down as my first guess to make the final four with Kayla after seeing her perform than on the first episode. On the other hand, Brandon was quite a bit better than her in the Wade "thieves" piece. I actually think Evan's performance with Brandon in the hip hop the other night was a lesser gap. The trend around here is to think that Janette was near perfect and Evan was woebegone in this kind of dance, so I know that's not going to sit, but I think it's true, probably both on a performance basis and a dance basis. I personally disliked the rocker hip hop. I'm not really sure about the dancing because the characterization was so over the top with the snarl and open mouth, etc. that it was just not enjoyable to watch. So, foxtrot, tango and a couple or three athletic type dances. Totally missing from the picture are a good contemporary, a beautiful waltz, a strong hip hop and anything broadway. Not exactly a one trick pony, but not exactly proven to be well rounded either. |

Such an annoying whore but such a versatile dancer who was robbed by Sabra (who?) and indirectly by her flaming brother who won the year before. |

Wow, I never thought about it but Brandon only got one contemporary all season (even though the broadway/jazz shit is pretty damn close). That should have been
clue number one they didn't want him to win. Then again Jeanine never did, but then again they probably wanted to showcase her versatility because she
wasn't particulary fantastic at one style. But I mean that's BS, how many fucking contemporary/broadway/jazz/paux de w/e etc. did Katee get week after
week? I think she danced like ONE Latin/Ballroom the whole damn season, and those styles of dance are the majority of styles.
