SYTYCD Finals

Beginning Wednesday, July 19, the format of SYTYCD will change to:

There will be no set couples like previously.

Each dancer will draw for a partner each week for two dances and each performer will perform one solo...........so that is three dances for each contestant left each week.

The judges will not play into who stays or goes because each contestant will receive a telephone number for viewers to call in their votes for their favorites.

The dancers who are in the final competion are:

Allison

Benji

Dimitri

Donyelle

Heidi

Ivan

Martha

Natalie

Ryan

Travis

Just briefly tonight. We have a storm rolling in.

Excellent, excellent show. Wish I had taped it.

From my perspective, Martha and Ivan will leave.

The judges did a great hatchet job on them and Ryan. Not hard at all to tell who they want to go.

Top: hands down Heidi and Travis. I was so mesmerized and near tears with their contemporary dance. Fabulous.

Solo: Benji and Heidi both were stupendous.

More tomorrow.

I am so disappointed. Truly Dimitri is a better dancer than Ivan, but apparently voting America didn't see it that way.

All of these dancers are really good and I don't want to see any of them go, just see one of them win LOL, but to get there means the rest have to go.

Tonight:

Girls: Martha and Natalie

Martha was voted off.

Guys: Ryan and Dimitri

Dimitri was voted off.

I figured Martha would go. She's a great dancer, but her solo fell flat the other night.

I don't like Dimitri. He's a good dancer, but he has no personality, and I always believed that he was the reason his partners kept getting cut. I'm not sad to see him go.

I figured that Martha was gonna go. The judges had really high expectations after the Broadway dance, but she couldn't deliver.

I was shockes, yet pleased that Dmitri got cut. He's really not versatile, and there's so much shirt opening that a guy can do before it gets boring and repetitive. I do also think that with as many issues as each partner had, I think he was ultimately the reason why his partners were cut.

I guess Nigel must have figured out by now that Ryan has a much bigger fanbase than he thought...

I love Ryan's face. He is a sweet looking person and when he smiles, his whole face lights up. I don't think he is one of the best dancer's but he is better than Ivan in my judgement as was Dimitri.

I really thought Dimitri would be go when they got to the final three. About his personality, Nigel explained that he has a marvelous personality and great sense of humor. All his castmates love him. What he does that I think doesn't come across as desirable to the viewers is that he dances with his own inner joy, for the love it and not for the love of pleasing anyone else.

You see that desire to bring the audience's pleasure in Heidi and Benji, Donyelle and Natalie. Allison doesn't do that either because she is so young, she is just having a great time. I was surprised that Natalie was one of the bottom two girls and attribute that to her sexy behavour and many people don't care for that style in this type competition. She hurt herself there.

    • The sad thing about SC being a great actor is that his character has never worked. Ever. And yes if I don't know what Liam is about and just focus on acting... I can appreciate him. But as soon as I connect him to Liam... I cringe.  Maybe SC should run till he is still young and find himself a role where he can shine. 
    • As I've said before I don't believe the fact that both sisters have cheating husbands (one in the past, one more recently) is a coincidence or anything random. It's pre-thought and pre-planned and the message is clear. Cheaters can be found in all shapes, forms and sizes. Some do it in the most blatant way, they are known serial cheaters and their wives know of their past hook ups (as Dani has already said... she was willing to forgive Bill for his previous mistresses... till Hayley came) and some are more masterfully disguised in the image of the perfect husband. The fact that Dani was jealous of her sister Nicole's happy marriage in the first episodes was not a coincidence. I knew it the first second I heard it. It made me wonder and think what is beneath Nicole and Ted's picture perfect life. The show painted two very different sisters and then gave them the same crisis. It was intentional and dramatically focused on how these women acted after that... How they kept or did not keep their dignity. The contrasts and the similarities are not random. They connected the two stories very well. Telling us that beyond the gates there are secrets... lies and betrayals. And sometimes the happiest ones have the biggest skeletons in their closets. Is all of this a cliche? A soap opera serial cliche? Yes. Does it still work? Yes. And did we need to start with something that is more universal and easier to stomach by the mass audience? Yes. This is only the beginning of the show in terms of stories and themes. We will have years ahead of us to explore different aspects of these people. The first couple of months it had to be a classic sex and betrayal story that makes more people hooked. It's universal. Again. Nothing so far about both husbands being cheaters is coincidental for me. It's too early for that.
    • Thanks, these are great! Joanne Curtis, another soap character punished for having an abortion

    • Yes!!! Mona feels  like one of my aunts, love the way she carries herself. Loved seeing Eva pop-up at the gambling place.  Monday was all around good soap. Can't remember the last time an entire episode held my interest.  Loving the fallout and reverberations from Ted and Shea-Butter Sheila's affair

      . Tricia Mann Grant is 90s early 2000s quality FINE. As nice as it would've been to see Anita embrace Eva, I'm glad she didn't because we can squeeze a lot more years of conflict out of Eva, Leslie and the Duprees.   Lauren & Sheila, Viki & Dorian, Katherine & Jill all gave us good conflict for decades. Hopefully this follows suit. I understand the concern. Right now there's an issue of quality of black representation on shows more so than quantity of black shows. I'd like to see more predominantly black sci-fi, legal, political, supernatural or medical dramas over the typical who is sleeping with who. However, this is a soap, and this is what happens on soaps. White soap characters do these things all the time, but have the luxury of being seen as individuals, not representations of their entire race. Husbands/fathers like Todd Manning, Victor Newman and Asa Buchanan cheat, lie and swindle all the time but aren't seen as a commentary on white men. Black characters like Ted and New Dollar Bill should be able to do the same.
    • And that area of the DMV has a high-end glamorous casino the MGM National Harbor. 
    • Even under the new writers, Jamey episodes are the shortest and the weakest A lot of people were unnecessarily clowny and bitchy today. There was a lot of fluff and filler too. And the dialogue was a little… ehhh as well. But welcome back, Kevin! It’s been a long time lol his return still seems really random but I don’t mind it. Philip’s actions make sense to me based on everything that’s happened to him lately and it could possibly set up more tension between him and Xander/Alex. And I wouldn’t mind seeing him and Kevin team up. I thought the actor did a good job too. Too bad that they couldn’t get Robert Benvenisti back though. I didn’t realize it in 2001 but he was hot

      And, we got the word that Arianna wants to come home. I’m looking forward to that, and seeing her relationships with Gabi, Marlena, etc. on display and I hope that

      As for Rachel’s birthday party… was Days hinting at something that we’ve been speculating about since EJ was shot?
