Nigel is turning into a dirty old man. What bizarre comments.

I didn't really like the girls group routine - thought it was kind of a hodgepodge of crap, but I loved the guys group routine. It had a Wade Robson-esq quality to it.

I hate to see anyone go, but I think tomorrow night will be Melissa and Evan going home.
I agree. Brandon sure is a work of art. I really liked the guys' routine and found the girls' routine missing something. Melissa and Evan should be going home, but after last week, I'm not so sure.

Yes, what the heck is L'il C talking about? I had no idea who he was, so I checked him out on Wiki. LOL
Clip:
"Despite a tendency to confound, confuse, and contort listeners of his prose, Lil' C's native language is indeed, English; not Babelonian."
Lately, all the guest judges have been annoying. Mia, just because she's Mia. Debbie Allen too much talk, not enough critical evaluation and Li'l C whose critiques don't make any sense.

Sometimes Lil'C's tangents get a little out there, but I love that he is a hip hop dancer/choreographer who respects intelligence and aspires to be well read and use language in an intelligent manner. I have no issue with using slang when with friends or family in casual situations, we all have our own casual ways of speaking from surfer dude to shizzle speak. The problem for me is that in the hip hop community people promote using slang all the time even in professional settings. By example, they are teaching kids that it's okay to not know how to speak properly. Lil'C shows you can be respected as a street dancer, and still be intelligent and show it.

One of the judges commented that one part of the routine didn't belong in the quickstep. (I forgot the step or move). Isn't the choreographer to blame, not the dancer?

Those were my favorite solos also - Brandon & Melissa.
Brandon's was indeed amazing.
Melissa finally picked good music and she had her footwork match perfectly with the piano keys of the song - WOW!! ("I Put a Spell on You")

Although I loved Melissa's solo I wasn't impressed with her and Evan. The broadway dance choreography, I think, sucked. The song didn't even match the dance. I only liked the quickstep a little.

Jeanine and Ade - thought the somba was lame and the hip-hop was good.

Kayla and Brandon - I liked very much both dances. They both have a way of being able to do it all. And so much energy and passion. I didn't originally have them as my faves but last night I thought they were the best.

It was the double death spiral. Not exactly QS material. Their lindy/charleston was off time as well, and I wouldn't have put that into the dance either, but that's just me.
