Chelsi and Mark were my favorites last night, too. They were both totally S-I-C-K. I must've watched it 7 times last night.
I also loved Joshua and Katee's samba - probably watched it at least 5 times.
For all 3 weeks, Joshua and Katee are my favorite team.

Mia Michaels out did herself last night. Both her contemporary routines were amazing. I agree Jessica needs to go, she's not a bad dancer, just not up to Will's level, which makes her seem worse than she is. I feel really bad for her after the judges give her their critique, but their normally right on the money. I think she'd benifit by having a weaker partner.
I think though, that Thyne and Comfort are going home. It's between them and Courtney and Matt for me this week.

I really did not go crazy for anything I saw last night. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really stood out to me, either. Personally, I hated both of Kherington & Twitch's routines. The Paso was atrocious. The Mia Michaels piece was just blech. No real dancing in it at all. Meh, they are THE overrated couple of the year for me. I'd be thrilled to see them go home. Also wouldn't mind Comfort and Thayne leaving. Khortni and Matt, I think they got screwed with their hip-hop choreography, it was crap to begin with, BUT at the same time, you have to make the best with what you have, and they didn't. I'm sick of all the Jessica bashing, it is true that Will is the stronger of the two but she's much better than people give her credit for. I thought she did a good job last night in both numbers. Chelsie and Mark and Katee and Josh are basically tied as my favorites right now. Last night, I think Chelsie and Mark were better, but overall, both teams are great. Courtney and Gev, I really like them, but did not love them last night.
My bottom three for this week would be:
Comfort and Thayne
Kherington and Twitch
Matt and Khortni (which I hate to say because I really like both of them. They just did not execute either dance very well last night).

New rule: Will and Twitch are never allowed to wear shirts!!!
Mia Michaels 2 dances were both phenomenal and I was so upset when they ended! My favorite was the one of Joshua and Katie...simply amazing stuff!
Jessica has a tough road because there is no way she can dance to Will's level, he is just so damn good! I think however she did better last night (especially in the 2nd number) and "performed" it the best she could. That number was hot hot HOT!
Matt and Khourtni...they do great solos and manage to come alive for those, but I didn't like either of there routines last night and think they are both very vulnerable.
Comfort and Thayne did a nice slow waltz (?), but I don't know how long they will be on the show.
Katee/Joshua, Chelsea/Mark are my favorite couples, but Will is my favorite guy!

I don't think that Khortni and Matt were screwed by the choreo of the hip-hop #. I thought it was a great piece and they danced it badly. I don't think another routine would have helped them much anyway, their hip-hop technique isn't very good he's better than her but still not great.
I compleatly agree with you on the Jessica bashing though. Ifeel so bad for her. Is she an amazing dancer, no. But she is very good. I think she'd be better off with a weaker partner, because then she would look better. It's not her fault that Will is in another leauge. I loved their Jazz # last night.

Season 2's Benji was just Mr. Personality and West Coast Swing is always fun to watch when done well. I think the only routine of Benji's that I didn't like was the jazz routine with Natalie and perhaps the 2nd Viennese Waltz with Donyelle. I think he was lucky to never draw contemporary with Mia.
Season 3 was populated by Benji's sister Lacey and Travis's brother Donny.
At least there aren't any sibs in this season.
I think Wil's probably the best technical dancer, but his personality hasn't reached out and grabbed the audience, which is why some feel ambivalent about him. IMO.
Danny, not Donny. And a third sibling, Faina Savich, whose brother Stanislav competed in season 2.
No sibs this year.
Obviously, Will doesn't have the huge personality like Twitch or even Mark, but he is an awesome dancer. I'm ready to see him paired with someone other than Jessica.

Who cares about personality, I just like to see him without his shirt on. :agree:

Oops, typo on Danny.
Forgot about Faina, but she did make it further than her brother. He was the 1st male eliminated from the top 20.
It's always interesting to see how the new pairs work out.

Twitch is still getting a high applause barometer, but the others are rising, too. It seemed as though they were least enthusiastic for Jessica.
Mia Michaels is the guest judge.
Cat is looking very unglamorous tonight.
Chelsi and Mark learn salsa from Alex Di Silva. Fuego. It was nice – best part was the lift and dismount at the end IMO. They did it well, but I thought she was too smiley. Great job on the footwork. The camera work didn’t do it justice since they focused on upper body too much. The judges loved her and thought that Mark was a little too stiff, but overall good performance.
Comfort and Thayne hip hop with Tabitha and Napoleon. Can We Chill by Ne-Yo. Very well done. Didn’t love the performance as compared to other pairs’ performances of T&N’s work on the show. The judges said it most lacking in connection, but didn’t hate it. Mia said that she has really been rooting for Comfort and also Thayne, but has felt that they have not risen to the occasion as other dancers.
Jessica and Will work with Tyce DiOrio. Silence from the Unfaithful Soundtrack. Will’s body is super hot. I’m wondering if the camera work makes me feel underwhelmed by Jessica. I really didn’t ‘see’ her. Nice chemistry though. The judges loved the number and the performance – they also felt that Jessica rose to better match Will.
Courtney and Gev learn to cha-cha from Anya and Pasha (from season 3). Don’t Stop the Music by Rhianna. It felt too disco-y for me. Again, bad camera work that probably didn’t highlight the hip and foot action. There were comments about some lack of technique from Gev. Mia said that they are not the best dancers on the show, but their performance quality is what keeps them from the bottom.
Kherington and Twitch krump with Lil C. Still don’t care for this style, but it’s the best krumping from any pair on the show since the 1st time. Judges also seem to agree that this was the best krumping they’ve seen on this show – both Mia and Nigel noted that she lost some energy towards the end, but give her a lot of credit.
Katee and Joshua waltz by Jean-Marc Genereaux and Marie France. Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. His footwork needed some work, but, as always, they had great chemistry for me. Overall, the judges really felt strongly negative about Joshua’s footwork, thought the lifts were great and loved Katee – all agreed that the overall performance was ok to good.
Chelsi and Mark broadway with Tyce. I’m A Woman from Smokey Joe’s Café. Her characterization could have been a little more stand-offish, but overall good. The judges seem to be enamored of her legs tonight. Nigel and Mary loved it, Mia cited Mark’s lack of technique being overcome by his performance and thought that Chelsi needed more ‘movement.’
Comfort and Thayne work on contemporary with Mandy Moore. A Different Corner by George Michael. The lack of connection is really hurting them in this number. It should be more emotional. I really thought the number would have been absolutely breathtaking if another pair had performed it. Judges agreed.
Jessica and Will quickstep a la Tony and Meredith. Bandstand Boogie by Barry Manilow. One of the better quicksteps on this show, but I felt some energy was lost towards the end. Nigel thought all the various parts, except the quickstep, were good. Mary said that Will’s jacket was not an asset and that Jessica’s frame broke. Mia bluntly stated that Will looks tired of carrying his partner and that he needs to dance with someone else. Cat asked Will how he felt and he said that he was happy that Jessica had her breakthrough.
Courtney and Gev jazz with Mandy Moore. Standing There by The Creatures – couple lost in the jungle. Indiana Jones-wear. I enjoyed it more than the cha-cha. Nigel thought it lacked substance – Mary and Mia enjoyed it.
Kherington and Twitch smooth tango with Jean-Marc and Marie-France. Assassin’s Tango from the Mr & Mrs Smith soundtrack. Twitch needed to be a little more assertive. I didn’t feel real tension in the routine. Judges pretty much panned it as mediocre.
Katee and Joshua go to Bollywood. Dhoom Taana. I was pleasantly entertained. I thought they stayed in synch with each other and seemed to do a good job. It was fun. Judges enjoyed it. For me, it was the most entertaining of the night.
Overall, I wasn’t thrilled this week. I think they change partners next week when we’re down to the top 10.

Technically, perhaps, Twitch and Kherington could be bottom 3, but his popularity will keep them in the top.
