So You Think You Can Dance forum begins and ends at the same time.

So, for awhile there (at the beginning) I was completely obsessed with SYTYCD, because, well, I'm a dancer and I just loved analyzing and critiquing their performances. I even was taking notes on it with what they danced, how they danced it, predictions, etc. (I know...embarrassing). I also had DVR so I could watch them over and over again. I moved, and no longer had DVR, so I could not do this, but I actually think it prooved to be a good thing. There's no reason to be obsessed with this show. So I never began my forum, and obviously, it's ending now.

I actually, have yet to know really how it ended. I watched the finals Wednesday night Aug. 6th, but then I was flying to D.C. on the night of Aug. 7th, so I missed the results show. I am very excited to watch it when I return (I'll find someone who DVRed or recorded it). However, someone did let it slip and so I think I know who won, and it surprised me.

I really just can't believe that Courtney stayed in and Chelsie got kicked off. Seriously, America? Courtney was okay, and every once in awhile I felt like she did a really good job on her solos, but what happened? Chelsie is a MUCH better dancer technically, and a much better performer. I realize that Courtney is cute and everything, but Chelsie is just as cute if not cuter. I felt bad for her. Josh and Twitch are both just pretty much awesome and I LOVE Katie. I think I really wanted Katie to win...she was just the best technically and the best overall performer. But, from what I hear this is not what the final result was.

And, can I just say that Twitch and Katie's kiss that they did in that routine with the music that (I thought) sounded like Amy Winehouse was incredibly hot. I think I had no words after seeing that. I'd just definitely kiss Twitch.

I haven't figure out yet how to post video. If anybody could let me in on the secret, that'd be great. Here's the link to the kiss though...(You'll hear all the intro stuff, and then it'll come on after, but the video with all the intro. gives the best video quality)

I also love, love, love the Bleeding Love performance with Chelsie and Mark:

I think Mark turned out to be kind of a weird/quirky dancer and not really all that technically good, but initially I thought he seemed to be able to pull off ballroom standard style even though he's never been trained in it.

And to give you an idea of how good of a latin ballroom dancer Chelsie is here's this:

Just one more...Katee and Josh - Samba:

I'm sorry, I have to keep going...This one with Kherrington and Twitch (I didn't love Kherrington, but she actually may have been better than Courtney and she should've been in Courtney's place, but whatever). This viennese waltz is REALLY beautiful:

Okay, so put Katee and Will together and you will have impeccable technique. This one is amazing:

Kim and I are throwing around the idea of going to see the tour show. It would be really great, but maybe we aren't fully committed and the die-hard fans that we need to be in order to go.
