Does Anyone Watch So You Think You Can Dance?

I liked this dude []:

I remember him,,,they really like him too!
They were very kind in their remarks to him,,unlike some of the others.

In fact, I think that someone mentioned the possibility of a role in one of their movies.

Is everybody happy with Sabra winning??    I am,,,, I think!  But I liked Danny well enough that I wanted him to win also...so either one would have been good for me.
It was a fun year...a fun ending bringing back some of the favorites.
Crummy thing for them to do to us...I was really looking forward to seeing Cat and Nygel dance[:@] [:@][:@]

I am happy that Sabra won.  Danny is just awesome, but I can see him getting work based on this show without the win.  I don't know if Sabra could have done that.
 
I so wanted to see the Mia Michael's routine from the beginning of the season (1st show I think) that Lacey and Cameron danced!  I kept hoping someone would have picked it, but no luck. 
 
They brought that man back from the U Tube video.  He was excellent. 
 
I also thought that the Nigel/Kat dance was a huge joke.  I wanted to see them dance!

Yeah I was happy with Sabra winning. She really proved herself over the series. I wanted girls to be one and two though.

I think they had a good top ten. I hated seeing anyone leave, they were all good and they all had good personalities. They also looked like they liked each other and had fun.

I like this show, I think it is good for people to see dance in a different light. It is also good exercise for the overweight world. Did anyone happen to notice Sabra's ab's on Wednesday nights show? I haven't seen muscles like that on a female I don't think ever with the exception of the Solo Flex commercials.

I was also AMAZED at how many routines the top 4 had to prepare this past week. Not only the routines for the Wednesday night finals, but the routines for Thursday too! That has to be impressive.

My only question is how much exposure does this get them in the dance world? I hope alot. We don't really see dancers beyond these special shows.

Congratulations Sabra!

I think it might get them a lot of exposure in the dance world, which isn't so apparent to the general public.  Chicago has soo many dance troupes and then there is theater.

Although I am happy for Sabra and she does deserve it I think any of the top four did.
 
I think Lacey lost out because her joking around and all, off stage, irked some people.  Neil seemed to be really good but then he would be off on one little thing.
 
I really was hoping that Danny would win - his style, technique and personality is great.  When it came down to it Nigel voiced his hope that a woman would win and I think that swayed the audience a bit.
 
They are all fantastic and I enjoy any program that shows people doing what they are really good at.  This one made me want to get out and dance!

I think Lacey lost out because her joking around and all, off stage, irked some people.

I think Lacey lost because (honestly) she's Benji's sister.  Yes, this is America voting, but....how awkward would it look if a brother won, then a sister?
 
I HATED Danny to begin with.  I loved to watch him Dance, and he has absolutely gorgeous exquisite lines, but he did come off a tiny bit arrogant.  I think though, it was more so that he was so involved with his dancing, and so in love with dancing, that he didn't know how to project it any other way but through "arrogance".
 
I do believe Danny is Travis' adopted brother
 
Did they have Neil and Lacey do the Mia Michaels routine with the flowers again (where Mia meets up with her late father)?  I adored that routine...it was so sweet it made me cry, and I don't cry watching dance.  It was just so beautifully performed and executed, and when I saw that routine, I saw Neil in a whole new light.  He was suddenly very captivating and awesome to watch.
 
I liked the routine with Danny and Neil, but I don't think it had near as much "power" as what the judges were seeing.  I much more enjoyed watching Benji and Travis' geek routine last season, however, the acting and emotion Danny and Neil portrayed was fantastic, and Neil knows how to work his face properly.

I think that Danny was shy and didn't know how to speak in public and that is what made him seem arrogant.  He was adopted when he was 10 by Travis's Mom.
 
I agree with you about the Two Princes - I think the choreography had a lot more potential than what we saw over the tv.  Maybe it was stronger in person.
 
You are also right about Lacey having another strike against her with her brother.  Can you imagine what would have happened if she and her partner had drawn the West Coast Swing that he choreographed?  That would have been interesting.

Did they have Neil and Lacey do the Mia Michaels routine with the flowers again (where Mia meets up with her late father)? 

 
They sure did,,,sorry you missed it!
Your right about Neil....besides his good dancing...and athleticism...he could end up an actor!  I do believe he will be making a lot of money after this show. I believe all of the top four will anyway.
You might be right about Nigel expressing his desire for a female to win VM,,,, and that is not a good reason to have someone win. I do not believe he should have said that to begin with...who really cares if two guys win two years in a row????

The only thing I didn't like about Lacey is she seemed to have a smirky face a lot...I'm sure it was in joking...but it was still a smirky look,,,I wonder how many people felt that way also and didn't vote for her because of it. Personally, I think it would have been fun to see Benjis sister win.

I thought Danny had some arrogance to him at the beginning too. I did not like him at Vegas when they would show him after performing his comments came off as arrogant and that stuck with me for a long time. But boy he can dance!

I think Neil and Sabra to a degree were sleepers. I kept forgetting their names yet they were doing enough to stay in. Then BAM here they were and they were good! My DH wanted Sabra to win, Neil second. He too didn't like Lacey's attitude. I didn't see that. Whatever. I thought it would be fun to have back to back Schwimmers.

By the way this is the 3rd season. They did have two guys win two seasons in a row. Benji won season 2. I don't know ANYTHING about season one, except the winner was watching one of the last weeks and they put the camera on him. I think the comment by Nigel was trying to lead the voters which may or may not work, but in this case I think he felt in general the 2 girls left standing on the stage were more consistent all thoughout the competition than the 2 boys so I think that was why he said that.

In any case what a great competition. Can't wait for next year.
