So You Think You Can Dance: Finale Performance

Picture 7Well, as I expected, I don’t think the show was as good as it could have been… I think had Ade been there instead of Evan, every dance that got “not so stellar” reviews would have been a lot better. It’s not like he’s bad… and the judges mentioned that. He’s fun, he’s lovable, he’s unique, he’s got personality, and they’ve never had anyone like him make it so far in the show… BUT, he’s just not at the same level as the other 3 dancers. And it showed in every routine he performed. He wasn’t as strong, powerful, hard-hitting, or impressive as Brandon. The dances he did with Jeanine and Kayla made me think- “that would have been better with someone else.” And his solo fell short too. (As did Kayla’s, I thought.) C’est la vie. If people like Evan, that’s great. But I think, and hope, he won’t win.

Hands down, Jeanine is my favorite and I really hope she wins. (Yes, Brandon is amazing, but I can’t stand his personality.) She has proven herself week after week, and as Adam mentioned, she has been the dark horse. (Hmmm, anyone remember Kris Allen from American Idol?) Oh, and I have to mention that I love it when Adam is a judge. He is always so positive and excited. But I was glad when he was truthful about not loving some of the routines. You can’t love ‘em all.

I didn’t mention any specific routines, so really quickly I want to say that my favorite number was the girls’, who performed Mia Michaels’ routine. She (Mia) never ceases to amaze me. I can’t believe the concepts she can portray through movement. That was my favorite number of the night, and although I wish Melissa would have been up there Jeanine, Kayla and Jeanine were absolutely lovely, and they proved why they made it to the finale.

Good luck to everyone (mostly Jeanine) and I can’t wait to see who wins tonight! Results are on Fox, tonight, at 8pm PST. (2-hour finale)

I voted for Kayla. That’s right I actually voted. She’s by far my favorite. I’m gonna go out there and say Brandon is going to win. I think all the girls like his muscular body. Remember when he said he’d never been to a gym before? What a liar. Or maybe he’s never been TO a gym but works out at the studio or at home. I don’t know. I seriously think he’s going to win though. I will be shocked if anyone else takes home the title.

I actually voted for about 45 minutes straight… for Jeanine. That’s right, I pressed “redial” for 45 minutes. I have never cared that much watching any show…

I thought the Mia Michaels routine was actually little bit of a bore fest for me. then Nigels creepy comments made it just sort of icky. I loved the first number with Kayla and Brandon best- I think Alisa’s right and Brandons going to take it, although I voted for Kayla too.

Alright. I should’ve read this review before commenting about the results. Personality, Idol……yeah.

I think the biggest let down of the night was the jive routine. Seriously? Travis Tritt? Seriously? Now, I love country music. I really do. But it was TOTALLY not a finale-worthy performance. And the boys dancing to Nasty……..meh. Brandon was good, but I didn’t think the dance fit either of the boys personality’s. Remember Benji and Travis’s routine? Or Twitch and Joshua’s? THOSE were finale-worthy. And the group number? Meh. All I could do was think of “Sexy Back” with longing.

I was just disappointed that this season started out so strong, and ended with a mediocre show. I wish we would’ve seen more of Tabitha and Napoleon’s work. Or Shane Sparks.
