Just caught the routines on youtube, and I can't say I'm terribly impressed. Maybe it's because I watched some of SYTYCDUS4 earlier this week and I was reminded of some of its fantastic choreography, but yeah... the judges keep telling Izaak that he needs to pull up when truly, it's the whole show that needs to pull up. I really hope that they find some better choreographers next year. Why do we need at least 1 American choreographer every week?

Blake's routine was fine, but not great. Luther's hip hop routine brought some heat via song choice, but the choreography was uninspired as usual. Hmm what else.. oh yeah Izaak rocked Jazz but yet again the choreography was mediocre. The disco was alright but wasn't as entertaining as Vincent and Arrassay's. The quickstep was fine, I guess. What do you get when you combine bad dancing and bad choreography? This week's CHA CHA!! *bada-psshhh* Hmm what else.. I'm bored just thinking about the routines.. yeah I can't remember the others. Anyways Izaak was good this week. So was Natalli, who has totally proved herself throughout the show. There's still something a little bit off about her personality, though. Every so often, I think "who IS Natalli?" To quote Tre, she needs to learn how to "keep it real."

A few other notes: I rewatched Izaak and Arrassay's lindy hop routine from last week, and I actually liked it more this time. They both danced it well. It was really uncool of Mia to diss Izaak for not giving enough after that routine. As much as I love Mia's choreography, she's remains inconsistent as a judge.

Last but not least, kudos to Nico for choosing Reckoner by Radiohead as his solo song. It wasn't a very good solo, but it's an amazing song, and it could have been an awesome moment if he had done it justice.

I do not agree that Lisa has only had one good week. Lisa has been one of the strongest, most versatile dancers since day 1, and the only time she didn't wow me was at Top 10 when she was forced to dance a boring contemporary routine with Mr. Overrated-in-pretty-much-everything-except-for-his-solos Miles.

Allie's popularity has always intrigued me to a certain degree. Allie seems nice, and she is talented as well, but she was a lot of people's favourite when the Top 20 started. WHY?! She reminds me of Kherington in some ways -- one of the "chosen ones," good looking, vanilla, totally pimped from the start, showered with compliments, and then gets a little bit of criticism in Top 10 and she cries and looks like she wants to quit. I'm a heartless bastard, I know, but it's really weird seeing Izaak getting dumped on when he OUTperformed Allie in the Jazz, and all people can say is "poor cute girl cried during rehearsals because she couldn't pick up the choreography in 5 minutes....LET'S BLAME IZAAK!" Once again though, she does seem like a nice girl, and her Top 10 was awesome (probably her shining moment).

Oh and last but not least, don't blame the dancers for having mediocre weeks when they have been given weak choreography to work with (which is almost always, on this show). Ok I'm done.
