FINALLY, SPOILERS:

Ah, but then "in a row" would be redundant if you meant it that way...

Just saw the episode, it was pretty good.

The disco was actually one of the better routines. I don't think it was as good as Vincent/Arassey, but I must say, Natilli outdanced Nico. I will also say that they worked well in their lifts together. They were quite smooth.

The hip-hop was NOT good. Allie was actually a mess, not hard hitting at all. Izaak was better, but not by much.

The contemporary piece was pretty hammy and melodramatic. After a while I asked myself "so, when does the dancing start?" The reason I really appreciated Vincent/Natalli's routine is because, along with great preformances, they have a lot of dancing to go with it. Same with Lisa/Vincent's routine. But this had very little dancing. Miles stood there most of the time while Lisa made out with the mirror (which started to have distacting prints all over it). The preformances were powerful, but very over the top. Quite a manipulative routine in many ways, making me think that "dead realtive" routines should be BANNED from the show since they all suck.

Anyway, the quickstep was also really good. The stuff in between the holds was sharp and in unison (well, it was sharp from Natalli... didn't watch Nico as much), and the lifts were incredibly graceful.

The jazz was okay. I loved Izaac's solo at the beginning, but the rest seemed a little sloppy from both dancers. I just wasn't very impressed.

The cha-cha was, in my opinion, inconsistent. Some parts were fast, sharp, and sexy (mostly from Lisa), and then some parts were slow and sloppy.

As for the solos, it was nice of Miles to show a different style (it was similar to Katie Lee's audition), but I like his harder hitting stuff better. Nico was... Nico. Lisa and Natalli were both okay (I apreciated them showing a different side to them). Izaak was good, and although I need to watch it again (check for slips), Allie looked good too.

I hate how they ordered the dancers. Everyone knows that dancers that preform early are usually forgotten by the end, and so they need to balance out the orders of solos and routines. So, despite weaker preformances, Lisa and Allie will be more remembered because Lisa had the last preformance routine, and Allie had the last solo, while Natalli had her last dance a little more than half way through the show... BOOOO! The first preformers should always do solos last.

Allie had a really off night. I do not want her in the finals. Her preformance quality is always one note and really flat, so her technique and bubbly personality is her strongest asset. But tonight she didn't dance very well at all.

Anyway, that means Natalli is in trouble, so VOTE FOR HER! 1-877-977-4602.
She had a really strong night, so that probably means she's gone. I'm ACTUALLY power voting for her. I NEVER do that!

Yeah, I'm sure her fanbase will get her through, but I really hope it doesn't. I don't think she deserves it over the other two. Besides, a Lisa/Natalli routine will be the closest we get to a sexy girl/girl routine we got in season 1. If Allie makes it, either tey will have to make one of those crappy girl/girl routines we have seen since season 1 (seriously, they've all sucked), or they will have her try to be sexy, and she will pale in comparison to what might have been.
