Let’s discuss…
- The diva himself, Brian Friedman, is back as a choreographer. It feels like a long time since we’ve seen Brian’s work. Looking forward to it.
- Sparksy is back with two numbers tonight. Y’alls and going love it, y’alls.
- Can’t we get rid of Disco? Why? Why? Why?
- Will the judges acknowledge Louis van Amstel at all tonight?
- Who is Stacey Tookey? Should I know her?
- Sonya, what crazy ass dance are you going to give us tonight, you sassy little minx?
Thanks to B, R and N who all sent these updates along.
Wow! I couldn’t ask for anything more than two Shane Sparks routines…don’t screw it up,guys!
Also excited to see Sonya back but kind of wish that it was someone else besides Melissa. I do anticipate Evan and Randi being fantastic in the jive however!
Stacey Tookey is a choreographer who’s done some stuff for SYTYCD Canada.
I’m particularly interested to see how the two hip hop groups do – I especially loved Kupono and Ashley last week, so I hope they do great. I think Evan and Randi should be able to rock the jive (fingers crossed!). I have to say I also feel sorry for Janette and Brandon — first waltz, then disco? Not exactly fan favorites. And Vitolio and Asuka get stuck with a waltz after being bottom 3 last week? I, too, am excited for Sonya jazz….that Mark and Courtney number last year was one of my favorites of the season. I am cringing just a bit seeing Phillip with tango, as I remember him doing ballroom during Vegas Week…could be a train wreck or will he pull an Ivan and rock the tango? Kayla will be fine with jazz, I would imagine, so it will be interesting to see how Max does.
I am so over the disco routines with Doriana Sanchez. Has there ever been a successful attempt?
Anyway, on a random SYTYCD note: was watching the Buffy musical, “Once More with Feeling,” again the other night when I noticed a familiar name as the choreographer. None other than the Shankman himself. It was fun watching again, and then the making of, now that I “know” his work from SYTYCD>
I had almost the very same reactions as you did. Disco? really? Isn’t it a little early for a tango? Sonja! Brian! Shane! Stacey?
Good news is, there is not weather here in Big D this week so hopefully, I will get to see everyone dance!
WOO! thanks for the spoilers
I am excited to see how Phillip and Jeanine do with the tango this week. I can’t stop watching their hip hop from last week, it was so good! They are my favourites right now, only just edging out Jason and Caitlin. Hope that their hiphop is a fun one! I also really like Kayla/Max, Evan/Randi and Brandon/Jeanette. The first two should be good, (jive is one of my favourite dances so I am excited for that) but DISCO!?! Why do they always seem to get the death dances?? hmmm. Well I hope they do really well, I want Brandon to prove to Mia just how good he is. I see Mia isn’t choreographing, hopefully she won’t be on the jugding panel though, I don’t think I can bear to see her rip apart Brandon again.
Phillip and Jeanine are not the best tango dances….it take years to be really
good at that dance. Having said that, they still get my vote.
Who the hell is that screaming b*^%ch judge? I hit the MUTE button every
time she has to open her hole.
