Will really should have made it to the finals at least. He is, in my opinion, the best technical dancer they've ever had on the show. I like him even better than Danny, and I thought he was pretty great! Unfortunately, those guys don't seem to show the personality the way some of the other dancers do, but oh I will miss seeing Will dance. He did everything so well. I love Mark and Joshua too, so I didn't really want to see either of them go either, but I was really hoping it would be Twitch this week. I've just never seen the greatness from him.
Courtney's my least favorite girl left but she did do really well last night and I loved both her solos, last night and tonight.
Now that Will's gone, my hope for final four are Mark, Joshua, Chelsea, and Katee. I think I like Chelsea over Katee just on personality. Mark and Joshua I just can't pick between.
Who's your pick for final four?

I completly agree i dont think Will should have been kiked off, he was by farteh best dancer on the show. As for Comfort, i kinda saw it coming and it was bound to happen. Though it may have made for the ultimate cinderella story, there was no way she would have won. My predictions for top four are twitch mark Courtney and Katee.

I wonder if Twitch is getting some sympathy vote for making it to Vegas last year but not to the top 20?
I think Joshua is much better than he is.
I wish it were Courtney and Chelsea. Her bleeding love dance with Mark was the most amazing dance ever!

Yeah, I think your predictions might be right but I wish it were Mark and Joshua instead of Twitch and Mark. Actually, I think Joshua has just as good a chance as Mark. It could go either way. Remember, Joshua hasn't been in the bottom yet.
As far as Comfort goes, I was only amazed that she made it this far over Kerrington. Didn't see that comin' at all. I thought for sure she'd be the first one voted off the top ten. But anyway, it will probably come down to Chelsea and Katee one way or the other.

I think Twitch did start off getting the sympathy vote because he didn't make it last season, but now I think he's just shown so much more personality than some of the other males and that is getting him by. I actually love Mark and Twitch and want them to be in the finale. I also really like Joshua but he is just edged out by the other two for me. I can't say I don't like any of the guys because I think the guys this year totally outclassed the girls - with the exception of Chelsea and Katee. I am so, so, SO glad that Comfort is finally off again. Her solos kept boring me to tears, it was the same moves over and over again! I also agree with what Nigel said - she really does dance hip hop better when she's choreographed. But that alone shouldn't have kept her in the competition this long over some of the other girls who had gotten the boot before her.

I was shocked about Will he is an amazing dancer. Next to him I think Katie is the best dancer. It is going to be hard now watching them go because at this point they are all really good. I remember year, the last couple of shows were awesome. That door dance was awesome this year.

Yes, Katee is amazing and I'm like Nigel, there's not a dance she's done that I haven't enjoyed her in, but her behind the scenes personality seems a little dull or cold. I'm not sure she'll get the "personality" votes that Joshua, Mark, and Twitch will.
Loved the door dance too. The kiss was a little much for me. I think she should have tried to kiss him and he turns away. Oh well, I think Twitch won votes for that on that night, and probably sealed the deal for Will - boo hoo.
Looking forward to these next few shows. I hope the choreographers give us something good cuz I think we've got amazing dancers that can pull it off.

The slow waltzy dances are very hard to get into, so I generally like the harder hitting dances too. Having said that, I am really loving the slower hip-hop dances this season! Especially the Bleeding Love and Alicia Keys one. Wow. There weren't very many slower hip-hop dances in the previous seasons, but when they did have them, I loved them. Last season's Sabra/Dominic hip hop routine to "Make It Work" by Ne-yo was fabulous and Season 2's Ivan/Allison's hip hop routine to another Ne-yo song with the umbrella was so sweet. I'm so glad to be seeing more of these.

I really love Mark and Joshua! I think they are way better than Twitch but I think he is better at hip hop. So if he gets hip hop this week he will make it. Mark can't get a waltz type dance or he will be gone too. He does better at more funky organic (LOL) dances that let his personality shine through. His solo to Queen really stays in my mind. I would have loved to see him finish it. I am not sure why Joshua is amazing to me, but he is. He just has something interesting about him.
Of the girls, I agree that it should be Chelsea and Katee in the finals. Courtney is adorable, but lacks something. I think Katee should be the "last girl standing". Chelsea is beautiful, but not as good a dancer as Katee. But, if they mention again how they almost didn't choose her because of her attitude, I will scream.
I think Will was a very good dancer technically. He just didn't have the vibrance of the other boys.
On the upside, Debbie can now be a judge.

I really love Mark and Joshua as well. They have been my favorites from the beginning - along with their partners Chelsea and Katee LOL. Guess that's why they're all still standing. Will was just starting to grow on me. Loved his James Brown solo. It was great to see him do something a little different. But he just got to it too late.
I disagree about Chelsea though. Katee dances so beautifully and really shows her personality, then she just stands there while being judged like she's not sure she should have to endure this. I don't know. probably totally misunderstanding her but she comes off kind of cold outside the actual dance. I don't get that from Chelsea.
Joshua and Mark are my favorite personalities though - they're both adorable.

I think the comparison of Will to Danny was spot on. The judges always told Danny there was something arrogant about him and he wasn't connecting to the audience, I felt the same way about Will. Not to say that they were arrogant per se, just that they came across as arrogant and lacking personality when they were on camera. I thought Will finally showed his personality when he did his James Brown solo, but it must've been too little too late. However, since Mark is my personal favorite male dancer, I would have to say I was really surprised at the elimination but I wasn't too sad because I was happy Mark got to stay. I almost think that Will didn't need to win the show anyway because he is so obviously a fabulous dancer and will be successful on this path. It almost seemed that he just needed a little bit of exposure to get his career going. So, again, I'm not overly disappointed to see him go. Now I think it'll be Mark and Twitch; Chelsea and Katee in the final four!

I also saw a comparison of Will to Danny, especially in technique, but I actually enjoyed Will more. I think he just got unlucky not being in one of the early favorite couples, so they didn't always get such great reviews. He probably didn't want to act too happy and stuff while Jessica's getting ripped by the judges. I thought the James Brown solo was fabulous but agree it was just probably too little too late. People already have their favorites by this time and even if they have an off night, people still vote for their favorite, not necessarily the best dancer that night.

I know! I was so hoping to see these two burn up the stage at least once. But alas, not going to happen this season. Darn!
