So You Think You Can Dance, S3 Top 6

WHOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Sabra and Danny made it to the finale!

Muhaha, you all thought my silence on SYTYCD meant you were spared the dorky dance show talk, but you are wrong! I have just been too busy with RL stuff and IBARW lately to blog about it, but rest assured, I have been watching as dedicatedly as one can.

Some of my favorite routines from the past few weeks:

  • Sabra and Dominic's hip-hop routine, which is sweet and cute

  • The top 12 dancers do lindy!!!!! It is not the most exciting lindy ever, but I do not care, because it is my dance! I was just happy to see steps that I know how to do!

  • Sabra and Pasha's quickstep, because as illustrated, I go crazy for anything twenties.

  • Sabra and Neil's corporate takeover jazz


Er, if you couldn't tell, I am a bit of a Sabra fan.

I am a little disappointed that out of the mostly POC guys, only one made it to the top 3 guys, though I am deeply happy that Sabra is still in the game and am rooting for her to win. Also, I'm hoping to see her and Danny dance together because technically, I think they are the best of the four. So. Rooting for Sabra, will be happy for Danny, will be somewhat grumpy if Lacey wins, and will be very grumpy if Neil wins. I like him better now than I did before, but I think he's still not that great all-around, particularly when it comes to ballroom.

Also, am still mad at Lauren for the "I sometimes pretend I am Chinese and go into auditions as 'Mischa Chen'" thing, but now I do not have to watch her!

Oh how cool! I liked the Hip Hop one and the group Lindy. Then I spent a while surfing YouTube links and enjoyed a bunch more. Yay!

ditto! Especially the Lindy, awesome choreography and they pulled it off completely except for the end lifting bit.

I am so angry that Pasha is gone instead of Neil that I can barely stand it. I'm feel the exact same way about the order I want them to win. I want Sabra to fucking blow the competition out of the water. I think this is the year we finally have a female winner. Plus two of my three favorites (Sabra, Danny & Sara) made it to the top four so I'm somewhat happy.

Also the Lauren as Mischa Chen, seriously what the hell was that? I had never noticed her as a contestant before and I went from ignoring her to instant hatred. Good job Lauren.

You mean Lacey? ;)

Sorry I worded that awkwardly. I meant that my 3 favorites almost from the beginning were Sabra, Danny and Sara and that I'm glad that at least two of them made it this far. Lacey I can take or leave, I liked her in the beginning but lately I just feel kind of eh about her.

I'd be delighted if Sabra wins, but if Danny does, that's fine, too. Both of them make me ache, make me soar...

I do love ballroom dancing as a specific style, but Lacey rubs me the wrong way - there's a lot of good technique but not enough heart and soul. Or something.

Neil... doesn't really move me in the same way as Danny, or Pasha, or, for that matter, Hok, who was kind of my inner favourite even though I knew he'd never make it to the end.
