Finally!! A night full of routines that I LOVED. And I didn’t just love them. Two of the routines were, hands-down!, my favorite routines of the season… even make my top 5 favorites of all time. Those routines were the Viennese waltz, performed by Jakob and Mollee, and the contemporary “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” routine performed by Legacy and Ellenore. I thought both were absolutely fabulous! I really don’t have much else to say. I just loved them! It finally made watching the show fun again! (I’ve been so bored lately).

And all the rest of the routines were all very good as well! With the exception of one… Tab and Napoleon’s. It truly was heart-breaking for me to watch a routine by them that I just didn’t like. They usually have a great story, and the movement and music is so complementary I have yet to dislike a routine by them. (Until now). Not only was it a little strange, but it just didn’t have anything impressive about it. The dancing didn’t even seem like dancing. I am really hoping that people voted for Legacy and Ellenore based off their first performance. Because, to me, to get a second routine like they got, it had nothing to do with them, and was all about the choreography. Sad.

Lastly, I want to mention that it will be quite interesting to have a finale with 6 dancers instead of 4. In fact, I don’t really like it. I think “America’s favorite” dancer won’t be as accurate, because the votes will be split between 6 people, instead of 4. And someone might have a strong feeling about 2 of the dancers, which would be greatly affected if one wasn’t in the finale.

And what do you think about Ashleigh not dancing? I just don’t know if her fan-base is big enough to withstand not performing the week before a finale. Especially when all the numbers were fabulous! If I had to choose, I’d say right now, my favorite girl is Ellenore, and my favorite guy is Jakob. But, I can’t deny that I just LOVE Russell. And I thought he did especially well last night. Seriously- both his hip hop and Bollywood were awesome!

If you see this before the results tonight, let me know who you’re rooting for. Does Ashleigh deserve a spot in the finale? If I could pick, I’d send Ryan home tonight. We’ll see…
