who went tonight?

I missed it, as well as last nights show. Thank God for the internets... I'm D/L'ing them now!!
Gabtron
Stephanie and Karlo went last night which is weird cuz they were partnered together, they did the Krump in the camo last night... 1st week they danced to the Veronicas in punk outfits but since then ended up with crappy routines sad.gif

this thread is better than clogging up other thread with the banter which im sure a lot of you don't appreciate ROB!! tongue.gif

and i'm glad steph got booted... she doesnt seem to be able to do very well at any genre other than her own!

yeah ditto on that - although it wouldnt of surprised me if they booted Laura as well
Kez
she's not that bad... better than steph!
i was very suprised that rhiannon and JD were not in the bottom 3... but i heart.gif them! i think they are both very talented dancers!
455Pontiac
yeah so was Jason the judge - and didnt he voice it? I think he is the best judge - not afraid to criticize dancers or choreographers - but he does have good positive feedback as well!

I think Laura and Anthony will go next week
KandiRaver
No.. how dare you say that! I love Lauren.. she's so gorgeous.. it's unfortunate her and Anthony got stuck with a crap routine last week!

I love Rhys and Jemma.. i reckon they have a real chance of winning!

I'm happy with the judges decision to kick out Stephanie and Marko, but I'm a bit pissed off that Australia voted enough to keep JD out of the bottom 3.. he fkd up both weeks now.. and IMO should have been kicked out the other week not Hilton.. that was the WORST decision made by the judges so far!!

He isn't a sleaze. he just gives off that impression because of his confidence and the fact that he does ballroom! Ballroom dancers always appear sleazy!

not ALL ballroom dancers look sleazy, I work with a couple and they are downright NORMAL! laugh.gif

maybe that is why I dont like Henry - not so much as he is sleazy, I think he is over confident.

I vote by text on the first text you get a reply back saying "thanks for the message, you won't receive anymore" but then any text you send after that you don't get a reply to so frankly.. I'm not sure if my votes went through!


PS: HILTON SO SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN KICKED OFF... I DEMAND A VOTER RECOUNT!!!

Henry on the other hand... blush.gif wub.gif
455Pontiac
oh please stop with the Henry stuff already! Rhys is far better dancer and far more interesting!
KandiRaver
It should be interesting to see what dances they get this Sunday night! I hope Anthony and Laura get a decent genre and routine this week.. not that soul-swing crap they did last show! That was bad music, bad routine.. bad bad bad!
Kez
but your forgetting they DON'T get given the routine...

they pick it randomly!

they need to learn to pick better laugh.gif
KandiRaver
i actually thought soul-swing would be a good routine.. but the choreographer did a crap job IMO!

But Rhys likes boys so why on earth would us girls be swooning over him? It's a waste of time and energy... He wears more eyeshadow than I EVER have.

Henry FTW heart.gif

ALSO! In regards to the JD Rhiannon thing, I watched the routine and it's funny cuz it looked like she stuffed it up. If she hadn't been such a stuck up bitch and let HIM lead like boys are SUPPOSED to, they probably wouldn't have had the trouble. Of course he's going to forget the routine if she's leading when he's meant to.

I really, really want Vanessa to be kicked out which means I have to stop voting for Henry which SUCKS!!!

a voter recount won't help babe. Public votes put them in the bottom three couples. then the judges choose who to send home.

i agree with you there.. it was like SHE was throwing him around the dancefloor at one point
Gabtron
The bit where they stuffed up, if you've watched it at all it looked like he was doing the right thing cuz although he didn't do the right steps, he didn't do wrong ones, he didn't move, whereas she stepped a bunch of quick steps one way then the other and she's the only reason I realised they stuffed it.

G.
455Pontiac
yeah Rhiannon definitely has bitch attitude, but she is not the only one. I have gone off Camilla after her last effort with Sermsah - she has no confidence in him.
Gabtron
I really like Camilla... :/ I wanna get my hair cut like hers! But I wouldn't style it the same way so it flicks up at the edges but I like the length.

G.
455Pontiac
so how did it go tonight? I missed it for a bitchin pool party!
~Em~
everyone was BRILLIANT... they all really upped the ante!!
455Pontiac
including JD?? how about my man Rhys? damn I gotta see if I can download it!
Gabtron
I missed it tooooooo sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

Caught the end with the quick reminders of how ppl danced but the TV was muted (at a restaurant) and they all just looked funny...

I think I wanna start taping it then watching it later on mute for a good laugh tongue.gif

G.
KandiRaver
Henry and Vanessa's performance on Sunday night was amazing! they did a great job!

I just heard this morning that Laura and JD got kicked out?
Kez
no

laura and sermsah
KandiRaver
Ah ok.. well it's a good choice i guess! Sermsah just wasn't living up to his potential!
KandiRaver
Last night was amazing!! Rhys' solo was brilliant.. but unfortunately i don't think the judges realised how well Rhys was able to tell the story of trainspotting in that 1 minute dance! It's a pitty!

Vanessa was breathtaking.. her solo was so beautiful.. admittedly she annoys the crap out of me, but she is such a beautiful dancer!!

Unfortunately i think Jemma will not survive to far beyond where she is now.. she worked brilliantly with Rhys, but i think that he was making her look better then what she is!
455Pontiac
yeah agreed Celeste - Rhys was excellent - and was good to see Jason's comments reflect his great performance in the solo - wish Bonnie would STFU!!!

Yeah Jemma with Anthony - she is gone

Rhiannon annoys the crap out of me - wish Bonnie (again) would STFU and stop over inflating her over inflated precious ego - then again she has Henry (put your shirt back on weiner boy) so they are both massive egos!
KandiRaver
Yeah.. Henry crying at the end of the performance kinda turned me off it.. it was a great routine and a brilliant performance, but after all his show-ponying and over-inflated ego of the last shows it just seemed so fake....

both of them crying was sickening - seriously that ruined a good dance routine
~Em~
while I understand the emotion behind it and appreciate the fact that it moved them... but I agree with Celeste.

I'm a fan of Henry's, but I thought him crying at the end of their performance was fake.
Kez
yeh i totally agree... it was a moving performance, but the story behind the routine didn't relate to him, the choreographer wasn't in tears, and the story being told was about her deceased partner!!!
rhi and henry worked well together!!!

i think jemma and anthony will be leaving tonight!!

i seriously think Jack is in with a chance of winning!!! he rocks!
Gabtron
I voted for Henry, Jack and Rhys... I think Jack's kinda hot but thats cuz he reminds me of someone... Lol, my mum and brothers fiance also agree that Jack looks like someone we know happy.gif

I think the crying was for reals, it still annoyed me cuz I knew ppl would get the wrong impression... Having done lots of acting I know from experience that if you throw yourself into a role it can be very hard to separate your own emotions from the ones you take on. It annoyed me more that he kept kissing her though, grrr....

err i don't get it

henrys solo was terrible!!! it was just lots of cape flapping laugh.gif

actually most of them were!

i enjoyed vanessas though
KandiRaver
Vanessa & Rhys.. the only two whom i reckon totally pulled off their solo's.. be good to see how Australia votes.. unfortunately i think Jemma will be out!

I voted for Rhys! heart.gif
~Em~
you need to remember that the two people that everyone is saying did poorly in their solos, are also the two ballroom dancers that NEVER dance on their own... they always have a partner!!
KandiRaver
that's true, but when i look back i'd have to say they have done much better in other solo performances in past episodes.
~Em~
other solo performances? you mean DFYL's ?
spyrokeet
quite a few of the solo performances last night left me empty huh.gif there were a few that really made me go WOW (can't remember who they were, possibly vanessa, rhys and jack)
henry's solo was just bad.. i didn't get it and i agree with kez - lots of cape flapping laugh.gif
Gabtron
Having said that, if you were to compare Henry's solo (masculine and a bit epic) to the other routine (woosy and sensitive) you would see how talented he really is tongue.gif

As for the whole him being cocky thing, even the judges said last night that it's all for show, in real life he's quite an introverted and withdrawn person.

I think Rhys will go far regardless of this competition, we were watching him at work this morning on the TV show Fairies happy.gif

twas an attempt at humour Em - the fact that Henry lately always has his shirt of (looks like a leaf) and that I think he is very robotic.! biggrin.gif

maybe this thread should be changed to the Henry fan club thread cuz there is an awful lot of Henry this and Henry that! laugh.gif

Seriously peoples Jack, Graeme (spelling?) and Rhys are far better than Henry - hope gym boy gets voted off tonight (yeah I know his name is Anthony)

On the males side it was a hard one! Anthony's solo was brilliant, and i think he did a good job of this partnered dance too.. i think it was a matter of to many great male dancers!

AUSTRALIA HAS VOTED! tongue.gif

I was actually expecting Henry to go before Anthony... I started shitting myself when it came between Graeme and Anthony! Didn't want either of them to go, but REALLY didn't want Graeme to leave!

and here I thought I would go a day without hearing Henry - thanks Em! tongue.gif

was it a clever ploy by Henry to keep himself on the show - isnt the first time a contestant in these reality shows has used a sympathy vote!
~Em~
I don't think he was doing it as a ploy to keep himself in... but it was definitely fake.

I think he was actually just trying to impress the choreographer... or the judges or something.

In other news...

did anyone else get the impression that Natalie Bassingthwaite has a thing for Anthony?

I'm not sure who out of the guys' will go.. but please not Jack or Rhys!!

From the girls.. i think it might be Demi or Vanessa's time to leave.
Kez
i thought the outstanding dancers were jack and kate, and rhi and graeme.

they were both paired with their match.

tonight i think its time to go for Henry and Vanessa...

and what annoys me the most, is Vanessa did that hip hop routine! and she so fukin shit! yet the judges commended her because she is a ballett dancer doing hiphop!!! who cares!! all the dancers are dancing out of their genre! don't just commend her!!! she's as boring as bat shit now cos she tries to pull the innocent act all the time!

as for henry! his house routine was disgraceful! but demi was just as bad!
455Pontiac
yeah I think Jason said it all when he said Demi was the last untrained dancer (or something to that affect). She still has more passion than Vanessa! I hope Vanessa goes before Demi, and Henry before Graeme

Yeah.. Bonnie is really irritating! but then again, so is Matt Lee a lot of the time.. the two of them tend to give opinionated criticism which don't really help the dancers! The dancers really don't care if you say .. oh i didn't like this.. etc.. they need constructive criticism.. like, you need to extend your arm here and point your toes more etc, or like in Vanessa's case, you need to put more passion into the routine..

She is definitely no Kate though... wub.gif

ooohh big call - I think Kate has the edge over Demi and Vanessa. Her dancing performances were brilliant with Jack. It will close as to see whether it is Vanessa or Demi to go next.

Jack definitely has the edge on the guys ATM.

Posted by: ~Em~ Apr 8 2008, 11:29 AM

Kate's an exceptional dancer, no doubt. BUT remember, this is australia's FAVOURITE dancer, not BEST dancer.

Demi has the personality, character and charm that has the nation captivated.

Vanessa has to be the one going tonight.. she just hasn't brought it up to the required standard.. i voted for Kate coz i liked what she did in the girls group dance.. i didn't vote for anyone else coz i missed the rest of the show.

Woot.. JACK won!!! He's a brilliant dancer... he's got great charisma about him! It's not suprising at all!!

I think Rhys and Kate did well too...

They sure as hell know how to drag out a show don't they!! laugh.gif

So You Think You Can Dance - Australia's Favourite Dancer is Reveled


A full-on group routine kicks off the real action of the night starring the entire top 20, and then some. Courtney! Hilton! And the rest! Awww, I missed you guys! Well... not really. Then the actual judges join the dance, and it's the most ridiculous moment of this entire show yet also the most awesome. Best. Group. Routine. Ever!

Nat Bass struts on stage in a slinky black number, horrible shoes and a bucketload of make-up. After a bit of jibber-jabber she introduces the judges for the last time: Matt wears the ultimate hat, Bonnie blows the ultimate kiss, and Jason gives a dumbest peace sign. I will not miss that.

After more padding... I mean, recaps of previous episodes, the Tap Dogs bang on the stage with their shoes for a few minutes.

Nat recaps the events of top 100 week. This type of segment is what we in the industry refer to as "shameless filler". For some reason a bunch of the top 100 rejects are then allowed to come onstage and do a stupid robot dance. Next!

The kids from the Billy Elliot stage musical show off their stuff, and then Nat announces the winner of So You Think You Can Dance. Just kidding! She cuts to another recap: a montage of the first half of the finals.

The top 10 perform another group routine. Ha, the bottom 10 got so barred. Not that it isn't an impressive number, but I think I prefer the big routines with a silly amount of dancers. Afterwards Nat announces the top 10 will tour the country in July - pfft, as if we'll care about them by then!

The final four come out and demonstrate exactly how they made it this far in the competition. Demi actually stuffs up a lot of moves (oops!), and not surprisingly, she's the first to be booted from the competition.

Next the show revisits some of the judges' favourite routines, including Marko and Steph's costume disaster, Camilla and Sermsah's martial arts-inspired number, Anthony and Laura's disco boogie, JD and Rhiannon's tango, and Henry's shirtless jungle samba with Vanessa. Thank you for re-waxing your chest, Henry.

Well, that was a fun way to fill half an hour.

Damien Leith performs next, proving that it is possible to stay in the spotlight after winning a reality competition, and he's accompanied by Caleb the Wunderkind from episode one. God, can this show please get over this kid already? He's even given some prize for being amazing, or something.

Nat lines up the final three. Kate is out, unsurprisingly - we've known for weeks it'd come down to Jack and Rhys. Afterwards, the very beautiful Leona Lewis performs 'Bleeding Love' so flawlessly I can't decide if she's miming or just a really great singer.

As the finale finally starts to wind down, Nat out drags Jack and Rhys to remind us how adorable they both are. Their final dance together is too cute - can't they both win?

Nat finally announces the winner... after another ad break, of course. Before she can read the verdict, US choreographer Mia Michaels appears in a pre-recorded message where she pretends she's been watching the show, the judges offer their final praise, my heart pounds a little, and then...

Australia's favourite dancer is... Jack! Yay! He dances an outrageously adorable victory jig as glitter tumbles down around him. A joyful top 20 rushes to hug him, as Nat promises that auditions for season two will kick off in September.

And that's the first season in the bag! What a nice (albeit bloated) ending; I couldn't be happier with the result. I hope Jack has a long and successful career - but what did you think of the finale? Too long? Not long enough? And did Jack deserve the top prize?

Thanks to everyone who's followed Alternate Reality's recaps of Dance since the show started in February. Watch this space as I cast my snarky eye across Big Brother '08...
