SYTYCD season 6 - competition finale

Here is why Kathryn should win: She is fearless. She approaches everything she does with attacking style. Her body moves in pretty much any direction - limbs everywhere. And she's a gorgeous dancer. Loved her in that samba. Since she was so fantastic, I was able to completely ignore Ryan.

Here's why Jakob should win: He has not made even one tiny misstep. He has been perfect the entire season. His leaps and turns are amazing.

Here's why Russell should win: He is a krumper and by watching him, you would never know he doesn't have any dance training. In 6 seasons of this show, no one has surprised me more.

Here's why Ellenore won't win: She has been fantastic the whole season, but what she drew tonight didn't show her off enough.

Let's talk about Kathryn & Jakob's contemporary routine. That was amazing! That was the best partner work this season, maybe ever on this show. These two are both such beautiful dancers. Seeing them together in a piece like this is a real treat...and you know how I like treats. If one of these two doesn't win, I will be stunned. Great choreography by Desmond and Dwight. Pause the blog, I have to watch it again now.

I always love a Travis Wall contemporary routine, I just wish Ellenore & Russell had danced it. Ashleigh & Ryan were OK, but I just don't like them. Ryan is so cheesy! And what is wrong with Ryan's eyebrows? He wears so much make up, even for a ballroom dancer!

I don't get it. 2 extra dancers in the finale and half the time. No solos, no boys/girls routines, no group routine? It was so rushed it wasn't as fun to watch. Solos are a really important part of the final competition show and the group routines are often the most fun part of the season. Bummer.

I have heard this same sentiment from several people about the season. I just haven't really gotten excited about the season or connected as much with the dancers. I think it's because they didn't give us a chance to miss the show. Plus, jamming it into a busy fall schedule has given a rushed feel to the whole season. Cat's even talking fast. We haven't really seen much personality from the dancers, choreographers or Cat. I don't like it. Too many changes. Who moved my cheese? Please Fox, just make this the summer treat I love again!
