So You Think You Can Watch...
... So You Think You Can Dance Without Wanting To Hit Mary Murphy Over the Head Repeatedly With a Frying Pan? I can't. What I can do though, is be honest in telling you that I got home a bit late tonight, so I missed a few key parts.
Where was Shane Sparks tonight? Why can't Mary go shave a cat so Shane can sit in her place?
Also, can I just take you back to 1992 for a few minutes? In 1992 I was taking a marketing class in high school, and somehow, my teacher found a way to work a movie into the curriculum. I can't recall which movie it was, but it took us something like two weeks to watch the movie. Marketing was every day, and the class was 45 minutes. Yeah, it took so long to watch the movie because every day my teacher would rewind half of what we'd watched the day before, claiming she was only rewinding five minutes, to "refresh our memories." Bullshit. She didn't want to teach. Ever since then I've had a strong aversion to being forced to watch shit I've already watched when somebody else is making that decision.
It's one thing when you make the decision to watch Good Will Hunting for the fifth time. That's your choice. But when I sit down to watch a show and think I won't be seeing a repeat, I do NOT want to be shown a recap of what happened last week or last night. Unless you're doing a funny montage of some sort, like every time Dr. Cox calls J.D. a girl's name. My point in telling you about my marketing class from 15 years ago is that I don't like when they show all the dances each couple has done in prior weeks.
Let's just get the Queen issue out of the way. It sucked. As Mia said, the song didn't work for the dance. At all. She was right.
Danny and Anya were pretty good. Jesus and Sara worked for me. Shauna and Jimmy? Shauna should go home. She does not strike me as a strong dancer. Also, they did not dance well together. She was all soft and flowy, he was all sharp and angular. They didn't work.
You know what I would love to see? This exact same show, but with famous people. Paula Abdul and Brendan Fraser. Against say ... Debbie Allen and Alfonso Ribeiro. Okay I didn't mean to be putting races together that way at ALL, they were just the first four famous people I thought of who can dance. Anyway. More dancing, less talking - that'd make for a great show.
