SYTYCD Season 10 Top 20 Results and Top 18 Performance

SYTYCD Top 20 Results/Top 18 Performances

Opening number: I always like trying to guess who choreographed it. I think Tyce did this one. I think Fik-Shun is awesome even at this. I like the costumes and the lighting and the music. I have no idea what the dance is about, but I like it.

Results: I don’t like the results at the beginning, especially since they actually find out who is going home at the beginning and not just the bottom three boys and bottom three girls at the beginning and the actual results at the end. I don’t think it is fair to the ones who get eliminated. Bottom three girls: Mariah, Brittany, and Makenzie. Bottom three boys: Carlos, Jade, and Alan

I was surprised by Brittany and Makenzie. I am glad the judges can save people and I think they got those saves right.

Solos: Mariah – she was about to cry, when she found out she wasn’t saved and had to do a solo. Krump solos are hard to do, but I think she did alright. I wasn’t blown away by it. Carlos – his solo is okay, I am not wowed by it. Brittany – ballroom solos are hard to do as well, but I think she is doing alright. I like her. She almost fell over at one point during her solo. I am surprised she was in the bottom to begin with; I think she did really well last week. I liked her ending move.  Jade – his solo isn’t making my jaw drop like his other solos have. It is almost like he is trying to add other things he has learned and be more fluid, but it just wasn’t great for me.

I was surprised by who they kept and who got eliminated. I think Jade probably should have gone home, but that is alright. I can’t believe they are going to have to dance with the people who are still in the competition.

Hayley and Curtis – Jazz – She says she doesn’t know how to be sexy, but with that outfit I don’t know how you can be not sexy. I think it is pretty good. I think they are doing much better than last week. I didn’t like last weeks. He grabbed her booty, a lot. I didn’t disagree with what Nigel said. I think I would like more of what Mary said if she didn’t say it so crazily. I like Christina Applegate as a judge because she actually knows dance more than some of the others, she knows performance too. It is good. She always gives good advice and wants the dancers to be even better and to improve more. She is a good addition to the show.

Aaron and Jasmine – Hip-Hop – this is alright. I don’t love it. Not sure I will love anything they do. There is just something about her that I don’t like when she dances. I think maybe this time it was her outfit. I didn’t love it, but it was alright. I didn’t feel any chemistry; I don’t know what Mary was talking about. I disagree with Christina about them being the couple to beat. I don’t agree with Nigel either on this one.

Jade and Malece – Bollywood – this could be interesting. I always love the costumes with Bollywood. Bollywood routines are just always enjoyable. Camera went crazy toward the ceiling in that number. That doesn’t happen often on this show. I really appreciated that Christina spoke directly to Jade and basically called him out to be better and to try harder. I agree with Nigel that Jade needs to try harder on a solo if he has to do one again. I like that he asked what Jade’s friends will say. He did seem to pick it up pretty well.

Alexia and Nico – Contemporary – I love Stacey Tookey, I like that they are finishing the story from the previous season. It is going to be good. I liked it much better once they came together than when they were separate. I liked it. I didn’t think it was the best one I have ever seen, but it was good. I am glad that Nigel liked Nico this time. I love that Christina noticed the change in the turns.

Brittany and BluPrint – Broadway – poor Brittany having to do this dance after being kicked off. Haha, BluPrint made a funny about being in the library and needing to study. I like this song. I think Brittany is really good. Saw a camera again. I liked it. I thought it was cute. I agree with Mary, BluPrint does need to give more. I love Christina’s advice, she isn’t just fluffy or for entertainment. She is a true fan and I appreciate that.

Jasmine M. and Alan – Argentine Tango – I love these choreographers, they are so good. Everything they choreograph is good. I hope they keep up. They pick really good music too. You just can’t take your eyes off the screen when they choreograph. I think Jasmine isn’t doing a great job and that it would have been a lot better with Brittany or Jenna because they are ballroom. But it was good. The last lift was impressive. I think Miriam and Leonardo might be the best choreographers on the show. Them, Nappy Tabs, and Stacey Tookey, who am I kidding, there are a lot of really good chorepgraphers. It was good. I liked it.

Makenzie and Paul – Jazz – I don’t love that they gave her bangs and I hate that she is wearing lingerie. The dance seems a little spastic to me. I don’t love it. I think they did it fine. I just didn’t like it. I think she is good, but I didn’t like her in this.

Mariah and Carlos – Contemporary – I love Stacey Tookey. This could be really good. The first time I watched this I actually got a little teary at the end. That doesn’t happen very much for me. It is just so pretty and fluid. They are so in the dance, they are emoting and it seems pretty real. He remembered at the end, or at least that is how I am taking it. That dance was the best one so far. I thought it was incredible. I agree with Christina, Mariah nailed it.

Amy and Fik-Shun – Hip-Hop – I think this one should be fun. I love it and it hasn’t even been 10 seconds yet. They are so good. Love it. Saw another camera. The camera people were off tonight. I loved that routine. They are the only two people on the show who could have pulled off that routine. I agree with Christina, Fik-Shun really is something special. And I love that Fik-Shun realizes that Amy makes him better.

Jenna and Tucker – Cha-Cha –I think it is alright. It doesn’t seem very Cha-Cha-y to me. It was better the second time I saw it. It was alright. I thought Mary and Christina were fine in what they said. I agreed with Nigel. A judge says something about it not being true to the style every time Dmitry choreographs. They shouldn’t ask him back. It was pretty good for me though. I think it was fine.

Bottom three girls after tonight: Makenzie, Hayley, Jasmine M.

Bottom three guys after tonight: BluPrint, Paul, Curtis

It was hard for me to pick a bottom 6. I don’t have a clue which dancers will go home after this week. It was a good show. I have people I wouldn’t mind leaving, but I think America will vote for them. Who knows? I am looking forward to next week.
