Am I the only one watching this?

I'm watching, giving it another chance. The Australian performance was great, very dynamic and different. I agree with the judges about the Irish couple. They need more fire. It's not just about technical moves, there needs to be energy!

Russian ballet was fabulous: elegant and beautiful.

So far so good. These dances are so much better than last week. Glad the judges are explaining their scores (more time I guess) except for that Chinese monk.

I thought the American popper did much better tonight than he did the first night.

[teddyray110]

I dunno how the judges judge because I thought that Indian dance was beautiful. Musicality and technique was right on. That Chinese judge speaks no words its hilarious

[teddyray110]

I guess no one cares for this show anymore. Too bad, it's actually much better this week

[iguanachocolate]

he is funny - he almost always votes the same as the Indian judge.

it is too bad that no one is watching it. i'm quite enjoying it

[teddyray110]

same here I'm enjoying it too. It still can be much better but I guess they can't get the most detailed explanations from the judges because of the time constraints.

The format still bothers me though. I'd like all solos dance, solo elim, duos dance, duo elim, group dance, and finally group elim.

US brings the showstopping performance! 1st place!!

[iguanachocolate]

well deserved, I think. the judges were right, in that it didn't have as many 'wow' factors, but it was incredible. i love that they tell a story and that you can see it develop as they dance through the number.
