I'm very happy with the results. To say that Paris' jawline distracted me would be a major understatement, and after the video of Tony's "best" performances, I have to wonder how he got in.

I've said from the start that Tony shouldn't have been there. They just needed to fill the quota of 2 hip-hop boys and the guys weren't very strong this year (it never made sense to me why they have to have 2 guys).

Is it wrong that after she was eliminated, I was like "Paris, why the long face?"

Tony has to be the worst top 20 ever.

It seemed to me they were also saying we have too many contemporary (duh), and not much ballroom/latin, so we're cutting a contemporary.

I know three other people who watch this show IRL, and each of them mentioned how much they don't like Asuka so if they are at all representative, she'll be getting lots of opportunity to work on her solos.

I really didn't have much of an opinion on her either way before last night, but she rubbed me the wrong way with all the preening she did after her solo. Too much "aren't I sexy?" type posing and it just seemed to come off as conceited and desperate.

I rewatched part of the Miami / Memphis audition show - I had forgotten that Paris was Miss Washington. And Evan Kasprzak auditioned for the show last year, made it to the Top 40 in Vegas but was then cut.

The Top 20 really is very good. Happy with the eliminations

should be a good season

I love Hot Shots! just for that joke.

I agree. But that said, I have a feeling each subsequent cut is going to be harder and harder this time around. I myself will not be TiVo-ing this for later viewing as I did this past week because I want to VOTE!!!
