I'm ready to be the meat in a Michael/Cody sammich.

Is anyone else starting to get annoyed at the crappy spliced 'n diced-to-hell camera work during the dance competitions? I want to scream at the director
"Just stand STILL and let me SEE what's happening, ya ADHD M-F." Janelle was "sloppy"? When? Where? I watched it a second time, I
didn't see where she was "sloppy". I'm not saying she wasn't or that she was. I honestly couldn't fuckin' tell either way. Every
time I tried to focus on just her, the effin' camera would cut away to something else, then back, then to the judges, then to stage left, then.. ARGGHH!
Felt like I was gonna get motion sickness. Just let me see the damn dance, m-kay?
If they want to show the judges faces during the competition, why can't they put little picture-in-picture boxes in the corners? One for each of the regular judges and one box for the guest judge(s). It's very jarring when they slice in a quick shot of a judge's reaction. Okay, I know. They're doing it just to push home the idea "ohmigawd, he/she screwed up!" But enough already. Rant over. We take you back to your regularly scheduled sane discussion.. I loved the look on Miguel's face when the judges were praising Jessica. It was so "what-the-F?" |

Interesting how last week's top two were this week's bottom two. And agreeance on the fuckability factor for Nick as well as Cody.

Another great episode. I love how open they are about the gayness in this show, so much better than SYTYCD. I'm pretty surprised this little show is
turning out as good as it is so far.
I love the top/bottom groups this week. Except for maybe the Italian guy, the top group is pretty much my faves. I was worried after last week that Prince guy with the questionable personality would dominate the competition PR Christian-like. I'm not a big fan of the little Italian guy and I was really liking the Asian girl, but I have to just say how annoying I thought it was for her to ask him to put on more clothes when they were in their apartment. I just thought that was rude, especially for dancers used the tight clothes and seeing lots of flesh. And did Cody agree with her? I wasn't sure, and I think one of them even said it was "borderline offensive". Get over yourselves and get the sticks out of your behinds! |

OK, no. Just cuz they're dancers doesn't mean they can walk around nearly naked.
There's a time and a place for that shit. It's disrespectful. I wish that flamer Miguel would have gotten the boot. Damn. |

I don't think it's disrespectful. His shorts might've been short, but he was wearing some. And guys go around shirtless a lot in dancing
environments. I'm not saying it's normal the way he dressed, but it wasn't obscene or "offensive".
On the other hand, I do think it's disrespectful the way they acted towards him. Like he said, freedom of expression. Do you think they would've been "offended" if a girl wore short shorts and a sports bra? I don't, and I also wonder if they would've felt and acted the same way if he were straight and shirtless. |

I can't believe I am liking this show. Nick and Cody need to be naked! I also think the mentor dancer guy is kinda cute :) Glad one of the fags left, now
it's time for the other to go. I don't like bitchy queens all that much, glad he was in the bottom two..although it doesn't seem like it will give
him any humility.
Two complaints: 1. as someone stated above, the camera editing during the dances really sucks. My guess is they edit it that way so they can show dance clips during the criticism part to explain the "issues." 2. EVERYONE says "Step It Up" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much. In only two episodes it has, for me, already become the most overused catch phrase since "Where's the beef?" edited: LOVED the judges faces during the elimination group dance..

I'm going to pick Mochi FTW. I thought that she was WAY better than Cody or Oscar last night, despite the fact that the choreography had her doing less and
less central to the "story". Also she is the ONLY one who has been in the winning group (and rightfully so) both weeks.
As an announced bisexual, is Michael now officially the straightest guy to have ever appeared on Bravo? |

They were all bunchy and puffy, more like potty-training pants or something. The first thought I had when it cut to the shot of them was "whoa, does he have a bladder control problem?" I just don't think they articulated well why they were feeling uncomfortable with them. I certainly woulda been skeeved to have him standing on top of me like that. On the other hand, I don't know if I'd have the balls to say "Dude, you're wearing Pampers!" |

If loving Oscar is wrong--I don't wanna be right!

I stayed in a co-ed dorm at a college where the guys out numbered the girls 3 to 1. (Didn't help some of us chicks worth a damn, by the way.) I don't
think I would've said anything even if Oscar wore really loose boxers with a big ol' gaping fly. If he wants to give everybody a free view of the
family jewels, that's up to him. What he wore, however, wasn't anything that bad. Mostly goof looking. Like CabanaChat said, it was more like he was
wearing Pampers than anything else.
It's when guys stand around publicly digging the lint out of their belly buttons, scratching their genitals or bragging about (and, ohmigod, demonstrating) how loud / smelly their farts are, that's when I get offended. Anything less than that, just shrug it off as being down to that person's ignorance, thoughtlessness or their lack of class. |

Were they just hanging out or were they trying to get work done (discuss their piece/rehearse, etc.)? If it was just hanging out, Mochi has no business to
complain about what Oscar wants to wear. If she doesn't like it, she can step away. If they were supposed to be working, though, I can see her point... You
want to focus on the work, but how can you when you pretty much have MANGO prancing around the living room with you? Seriously, if they had just given him some
sequins and a beret, that's what he would have been...

James was showcased heavily in the 2 eps he lasted for, and it made him my favorite. Damn you, Bravo editors.
I don't care what any of yall say about his gayness. His solo freestyle moves last week were fuh-ierce. Can you imagine how much even longer Cedric would have lasted if he could dance like James? |

I want to make love to Cody's face.
Oh, and the dancing is cool too. |

Yeah, when we first saw him, I honestly thought he was wearing a diaper. I figured they were getting into some really strange costumes for the performance. What I found stranger than Michelle and Cody being horrified by Oscar's diaper was all of the fuss over Oscar being shirtless at the club in the first episode. First you had Nick acting like Oscar had stripped down to a pair of buttless chaps, then you had Oscar himself wringing his hands over Jamie King seeing him shirtless. Maybe it's because I'm gay, and to me a shirtless guy at a club is about as unusual as a black guy at an Al Sharpton rally...but what the fuck is the big deal? Dancers perform shirtless, even in elite dance troupes, all the time. Do we know what Cody's orientation is? He certainly comes across like a "don't think I'm gay just because I'm a dancer!" type, but they have yet to officially tell us whether he's straight or gay, right? I think he's adorable, but I hate his smile. It's strangely pervy. Oh, and could someone please explain to me what was so butch about Miguel's dancing this time around? He seemed just as femme as in the first episode. One last question - can I link to Michael's porn shots? Or will that get me banned?
