So You Think You Can Dance: Week 8 Results

I wanted Pash to win; but, I will take Sabra. They are both talented, versatile, with fantastic personalities. Heck, I will take Lacey or Danny. But there is no love for Neil the cheerleader here. All he does is cheer, leap, piroutte, leap, leap, cheer, with that horrible hunched form. Pash was such a man, and Neil such a pretty boy who cannot show passion on his face, at all. But the tweenies had to love him. I am extremely disappointed.

My vote will go to Lacey...when she rotated that outstanding bum of hers right into the camera on her solo dance every guy watching reached for the phone and himself.

Well, I don't think I'm watching SYTYCD this season anymore. In fact, I stopped watching the Thursday results show since I could look online to find out who gets booted.

I hope Sabra wins. I personally like Neil the best (of the 4; I wish Pasha was still there - he is extremely entertaining) but I don't think he will get enough votes to win. So either Sabra, Neil, or even Lacey (though i don't think she will win either - nor do I think she's the most entertaining one left). Anyone but Danny.

Are any of the other dancers professional dancers? Anyone know? Not just like getting paid to perform occasionally, but like having a contract in a pro company of some type?

I love Benjy, but if Lacey wins this one I'm not going to watch this show moving forward. It's too predictable and Lacey lacks Benjy's charisma. I think that Lacey has done a good job of trying to outshine her partners on purpose to further herself in the competition. I think had she been working harder on developing relationships with her partners, the outcome thus far may have been different. I think, to me, she just doesn't come off as genuine.

As far as the Danny vs Neil debate is concerned.. it's still a valid one. Neil, thanks to brilliant editing, comes off as a nicer guy with a great personality who connects with his partners and the crowd. His dancing up until the last show didn't do much for me, but his personality helped fill in the gaps. Even though he's progressed as a dancer, I'm not seeing it in his solos. I'm still seeing a lot of him relying on tricks, jumps, and aerobatics. Considering he's grown so much according to the judges, I'd expect to see more warmth and vulnerability in his solo.

Danny did not have much to learn as far as dancing was concerned. Yes, he needs more help with hip-hop and more urban styles, but so did the vast majority of the dancers. I think the editing done early on in the show made him out to be some sort of ego driven monster, but I think that he's done a good job of redeeming himself. His partners all seemed to adore him and the other male dancers didn't seem to have any issues with him. I also found it heartwarming when he was mildly embarrassed to dance in front of Travis because he thinks his brother is so much better than him. I found it disconcerting that the judges made negative comments about him so early on in the competition, one having said he was "dead inside" before even they had the chance to know him. Those are the kinds of things that biased the public against Danny which was wrong. Is he entirely humble? I don't think so, but I won't buy into attempts by editors and by the judges to make him out to be some sort of monster. It's clear that this is not the case.

This competition, until yesterday, was very interesting and the previous dancers that were sent home, I believe where the right ones to go . Ever since the show began this season, all male dancers were chosen to prove they could do better by sending them to the bottom three, etc. And if we remember, Pasha might have been chosen one time, but these two that were left as finalists, in various occasions, were at risk of being eliminated. Obviously , Pasha showed, a lot of consistency during all the competition in his quality as a dancer. All this, makes me think, after seeing the results of his elimination, that it isn't possible that a national dance competition can be won by a dancer , not born in this country. So Pasha's elimination at this stage, makes it easier for the last two male dancers who went to the finals, to win without having such a hard opponent with Pasha's quality. If it would have been contrary, and Pasha had been in the finals with either one, the Pasha would have been a victorious winner, so the most important news at the end of last nights male competition, would have been the victory of a Russian and not that of an American.

This top four is so solid... actually, the top six were all solid and any of them could have made it into the top four and I would have been happy. What a great season!

Hey, Porchland, do you have anything positive to say? I can't see how anybody could find fault with practically every single person on the show. If you don't like the guest dancers, the wardrobe department, the guest judges, and half the dancers, then why are you watching the show?

I strongly believe that Pasha was one of the best dancers by far, he has so much grace while he dances it is almost like he dances on air, the way he sways across the floor takes your breath away.I think America made a big, big, mistake in leaving him out of the competition. To me, Pasha already is the #1 dancer of America!!!

Yeahhhh go NEIL & SABRA!

cathy: The pic at the top of the review looks like Lacey Schwimmer.

Of course everyone knew it was a Wade number since it is almost identical to all his numbers. He doesnt pick his music and then make the dance fit, he picks music that goes with the only dance moves he does. Boring. Also, who is that woman you have on this review?
