So You Think You Can Dance Takes Us Down To Six
We’re heading closer to the finale for the summer dance craze, So You Think You Can Dance. This week’s eliminations are definitely a shocker. In fact, I can safely say I didn’t expect to see the one male go home this week. To even see him in the bottom two men was a shock. This week’s show just shows us that anyone can go home, but I don’t think America saw this one going home. You really do need to vote for the dancers you love.
On last night’s show, we start with the results after a group performance. Cat calls out the dancers one by one. We see who is safe and who is in danger of going home. Mark is shockingly safe. Comfort, his partner, is not. The first male in danger of elimination is Will. We thought if anyone was safe this week, it would be Will, especially after his performance with Courtney.
The other two in the bottom this week are Twitch and Courtney. Seeing Twitch there is another shock. Even if he is the least trained of the dancers, he is one of the best this season. Courtney has also been wonderful this season, but with everyone else in the competition someone needs to be in the bottom two, and Chelsie and Katee are the best females.
Once we know who is in the bottom, we have another performance, and then the bottom four dance their solos one more time before we have a performance by LL Cool J. Once that is done we see who is going home. This is where the shock comes in. On the male side of things, we have Twitch and Will. Twitch was emotional when his name was announced. I don’t think anyone expected him in the bottom two. Many were shocked to see Mark safe. He was shocked as well.
On the female side, we have Courtney and Comfort. Seeing Comfort there is no surprise. She should have gone home weeks ago, and she was picked to go home before. She was lucky to have another opportunity to stay. Jessica’s injury brought her back. This week, we finally do see Comfort leave us, and all I have to say to that is it about damn time. On the male side though, it is hard to see this choice go home. This week we say good-bye to Will. One of my favorites in the competition. What do you think? Did America make the right choice?
