Well, I have to admit, it was so late, I watched almost the entire show on fast-forward, and only stopped to see who were the bottom 3 couples, watch them dance, and then see who the judges decided to send home. And, not that you care, but why did I do that? Because, last night, I was actually AT the So You Think You Can Dance Season 5 Tour Concert! (And it was awesome!) But, I’ll come back to that.

So, apparently I was WAY off about the bottom 3 couples… other than Kevin and Karen. And, honestly, I didn’t really agree with whir evaluation after they danced for their lives. Yes, it was Kevin’s time to go. I don’t think he is anywhere near the caliber of “hip hop” dancers from the last couple seasons. So, I’m not sad about that. But I was totally disappointed with the girls results. I know some people love Karen (Alisa included), but I just don’t see the appeal that the judges see. In my opinion, if fans aren’t voting for her, then she shouldn’t keep being saved by the judges… it’s just not fair to others who happened to fall in the bottom for the first time. And to be completely honest, I actually thought Channing had a rockin’ solo. They praised Mollee, but didn’t her solo seem desperate in the gymnastics-department? I was shocked when they saved her first. I thought either she or Karen should have gone home. I felt like Channing is finally proving why she’s there, and with another week or 2, I think she would have started to develop a fan-base. So, I’m bummed about that.

With that said, and having gone to Season 5′s concert last night, I now really feel like this season’s dancers need to start stepping it up. It’s already the top 14 (actually top 12 now…) but I have yet to be wowed by any dance number. There were “favorites” performed last night (at the concert) that were performed when it was just the top 18 and even top 20! So, I’m with Nigel now, and I’m waiting to be impressed.
