So I Thought They Could Dance

[ladysprite]

Okay. Inspired by this season of SYTYCD's tepid over-contemporary routines with lackluster choreography and mediocre partnering, I have spent the past hour going back and re-watching actually awesome routines. And so, for my own reference, and for those of you who haven't watched the show before this season, I am about to stash here a handful of the absolute best that this show had to offer, back when it was awesome. If you're new this season, or if you've never watched it before and want to see kickass tango and hip hop and even some contemporary, or if you're a fan and want to see if my favorites match yours, here goes....

So, what do you think? Good stuff? Or, if your favorite isn't on here, what is it? Share!

Coming in late, it's hard to find favorites that nobody mentioned yet!

The couple that come to mind:

Kherington & Twitch's jailbreak, aka Don't Touch Me
Pasha & Lauren's mechanical spider hip hop

Also, much as I love Kent & Neil's above-mentioned contemporary, their Broadway baseball bit is just too much fun not to name as well.

Oh, and Alex & Twitch

Gotta say, though, this season's Sasha & Alexander's paso made it onto my all time faves list. I've long since wanted to see a paso doble of girl-power, and this hit the spot.

Also from this season, the jail piece was a nifty exploration of constraints.

I liked "please mr jailer". :)
