SYTYCD Plucks "Cry Baby" off the discount shelf and gives it new life.
As you can see from the inspiration the underrated classic Cry Baby, SYTYCD took it pretty literally.
What the hell happened to Amy Locane? Such a pretty girl, she got kicked off the original Melrose Place and apparently out of Hollywood.
I'm not going to talk about all of them because I need to sleep eventually.
The Cha Cha: I don't know what Nigel was talking about, there was little hip action from either dancer so it wasn't really a Cha Cha. Missy's costume looked like the unfortunate remnants of Karina Smirnoff's awful "pussy" costume from her salsa dance with Ralph Macchio. I've said it before and I'll probably die with these words on my lips, "ANIMAL PRINT ONLY LOOKS GOOD ON THE ANIMALS ON WHICH IT EVOLVED! STOP WEARING IT! STOP MAKING IT!".
The Bollywood: They are going to beat this genre to death, aren't they? All it made me think of was that this was the dance that broke Alex Wong. On the plus side, Iveta looks like she's reverse aging which means she might look 30 by the finale.
The less I say about woodpeckers, the better.
The Prince and Princess: nice dress, Clarice is very pretty and she has lovely lines, they are going to make sure that Jess does that pirouette until he's kicked off aren't they?
Melanie and Marko Jazz: the performance of the night. I'm sure that Jess was kicking himself that he didn't get this one but I don't think he could have out danced Marko. I can't front, Melanie is my favorite and her little shimmy was the move of the night for me.
Sasha and Alexander: Sit down, because they SYTYCD costume division has this one coming. No woman, who is about to greet her husband home from a long tour in Afghanistan, has ever shown up dressed like she just finished caulking the bathroom. My mother was about to throw the tv out the window so we had to watch this one twice because she kept going on about how she dressed up to nines when my father got back from Vietnam and how she remembers everything she wore that day and how all the other women looked so beautiful because that's WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOUR LOVER COMES HOME AND YOU ARE SO HAPPY TO SEE HIM ALIVE YOU DRESS THE FUCK UP!!!!! The dancing though, was lovely and the two of them were beautiful together. Get it together costume department.
Ashley and Chris: it seems like ladies don't dress up for soldiers but they do for prisoners. I kid, I kid! Since this song is from a movie set in the 1950's the dress is totally appropriate. I really liked this piece, there was sense of tension and fun running through it. Ashley's balletic technique was utilized well and I could sense Chris's frustration from behind those bars.
The guest judges seem to afraid to offer any real critique so then other than the novelty of having Debbie Reynolds or Lady Gaga sitting there I don't see the point. It's far better to bring back the rotation of choreographers and dancers who know the dancers better and can actually help them instead of blowing smoke up their asses.
