All My Children Discussion Group
Opening number - Aha - this is strangely weird and wonderful. Wade and Amanda are top notch at what they do. Marvelous.
What IS Cat wearing? The dress reminds me of something I wore in 8th grade (and the same size, lol). Love the booties (I assume they are Louboutin).
Judges: Nigel, Mary and Adam
Nigel again cautions voters voting favorite vs. best but says no matter what it's still about the dance.
First Two Couples:
Ashleigh & Jakob - SAFE
Karen & Kevin - BOTTOM (no surprise)
Next Three Couples:
Ellenore & Ryan - SAFE
Noelle & Russell - SAFE
Channing & Victor - BOTTOM
Last Two Couples:
Lathryn & Legacy - SAFE
Mollee & Nathan - BOTTOM
Bollywood Dance Productions: I love and appreciate everything Bollywood but this did not have the impact I'm so used to. My husband said watching this one wonders if the 15 minutes are up on this style, seen it and I'm done. I don't think so. America's Got Talent had a young troupe that slammed their routine.
Solos: Nigel said last week no one really danced for their lives with the fight needed. Hopefully they all learned something from his words.
Karen - nice solo but no real wow. She looked hot and I think she's smart and trying not to JUST be known for sexual moves.
Kevin - comfort zone but nicely done. I feel he's in real jeopardy.
Channing - had power but she can be dull.
Victor - after the first week he was bottom we know the man can solo and knocks it out.
Mollee - girl can dance. Aerial onto her knee - wow! Life saving routine if ever I saw one.
Nathan - technically he is so very precise.
Orianthi: she is a fabulous guitarist but otherwise too much like so many others her age. JMO.
Going Home: Judges are unanimous on both male and female. Channing and Kevin.
Gotta say Channing never really had the chance to shine with her first partner and Kevin was overshadowed by Karen. I thought it might be Nathan going but he proved himself through solo.
NOW - Karen has a technical master in Victor and this new partnering might be the ticket for both. That's how this show's juices gets flowing. Out with the weaker dancers and re-teaming. They've both been bottom several times with others. Her sexuality and ability added to his technique - just may be the best medicine to get back on track. I'm excited for them both - remains to be seen. As Nigel said folks are really beginning to rise to the top especially after being bottom and fighting to stay!






Anyhoo, some thoughts from Tues, since I missed Weds.....
*Ashleigh/Jakob - I was impressed w/ Ash, just like the jidges did.
*Karen/Kevin - just ok for me.
*Noelle/Russell - this was also ok for me, well done & all, but maybe I just don't like fox trot.
*Channing/Viktor - I enjoyed this very much and I'm a McFerrin fan and familiar with this version, but when Adam explained how the song distracted, I could see his point.
*Kathryn/Legacy - DOTN!!!! Hot hot hot hot. Loved every minute, a real rewind moment! Loved when she & the skirt slammed the floor. I did not mind Legacy without a shirt. Not even a little. lol. Both shone!
*Ellenore/Ryan - Other DOTN for me. So glad the judges noted her great skill cuz I love this girl, right from the auditions. They were beautiful, another rewind moment!
*Mollee/Nathan - they did well (glad that choreo'er busted their and espec. his butts, lol) but I hated the song and it spoiled the dance for me a bit.
*Travis Wall is such a boon to this show and to me!
*btw, do u know if the jive and quick step are the same thing? Just curious
Now to find the group number & solos on youtube.....

Hi W.E.
I agree with everything you said. I loved the beginning number - it was excellent from start to finish
I also saw the Bollywood troup that performed on Americas Got Talent and they were so much more entertaining than last nights dancers which i didnt even watch to the end - i got bored and fast forwarded thru it
I have to agree with the judges decision to let Channing go. I loved her Blackbird dance but it was too little too late - you're right to use the word ''dull'' to describe her ... too bad because i feel like she could have done better
And i was a little sad to see Kevin go because he tried so hard ... but i look forward to seeing Karen with Victor - i think they will make a bigger impact as a couple
I think Nathan got thru by the skin of his teeth - he's an adorable cutie - reminds me of a young Keanu Reeves ... but Mollee really wowed me last night ! Good for her :)
