As always, I'm just eating it right up.

For anyone who missed it thus far, FOX has a couple of episodes on their website.

1. Yes, I enjoy the show..
Some of the dances/dancers are outstanding. Two people from So You Think..are pros on Dancing With the Stars.

16. I didn't start watching SYTYCD until season 3, so I think I missed him. Pasha and Ryan
are my open-shirt ballroom dance hunks. :P

6. The contemporary dance done to Adele was just simply stunning.
Captured EVERY emotion exquisitely. That said, I didn't feel the love so much for the routine about the soldier returning from war.

8. My husband remarked that too many NappyTab routines are about soldiers going to and from war. Their
choreo is great, but he does have a point. There do seem to be a lot of them. And to be honest, the one with Katee and Josh will always be favorite.

17. Audrina Patridge and Tony Dovolani had a really good dance with that theme on DWTS.
It was a waltz, I think.

My problem with the dance the other night was there was little emotion or connection between the two (to me). They could have been reunited on the disco floor, for all that it showed me.

And I'm not much of a fan of the choreographers of that, either.

10. I think the ladies this season are phenomenal!
...and I'm glad Mary Murphy is back! I'm a little confused about the choice of Debbie Reynolds as a guest judge, though. :shrug:

11. Yes! I'm glad they went back to the old format.
And I'm happy that Mary is back. I think the dancers they selected are amazing.

I felt bad for the two couples who were eliminated. I think they both just got the short straw on their routines.

13. From what I understand it's a mix of the old and new format. Once we reach 10 the All-stars
will join the show, which is fine with me. I enjoyed seeing them last year. (But I am glad we start w/ 20 and give them time to form relationships with their partners. The 10 dancer format just didn't give them enough time to get their feet under them.)

18. If your partner is bad, I guess, that's also on you.
That's what happened to Wadi -- his part of the dance was pretty bad (I came in late and didn't see it, but Nigel ripped it to shreds), so they both paid the price.

20. It does seem like couples tend to make the exit together. Occasionally only one
gets the boot, but it really seem like couples tend to go off the show together.
