Voting with the Penis Is Never Cool...
Day two of my weekend crash is now over, and I'm hoping against hope that this coming week isn't as bad as last week was. However, considering I've been doing hand-holding for several of my coworker's new contractors who clearly were not very well prepped by him, I'm skeptical that it will be any kind of a good week. If it is simply not a bad week, I will count it as a win.
Not sure if any of you are watching So You Think You Can Dance this season, but I'm getting really annoyed with the show. Instead of having a results show the day after the regular show, the judges get the results of the voting that day, and they and the choreographers for the next week know which dancers were in the top/bottom. All the dancers perform on the next week's episode, and the results of the previous week's voting aren't announced until everyone has performed. Then the judges make their picks for who stays and who goes.
I'm not sure why they are doing it this way unless its something that Fox asked for to free up time for other programming. I have to confess I rarely watch results shows, so if I'm typical, it could have been a strategic move. However, the new format, in short, sucks balls.
Take last week's episode, the episode when my two favorite female dancers were sent home. The bottom three were the two of them and leggy blonde Latin ballroom dancer who always looks awkard as fuck to me. She has like mile-long legs and a curiously short torso. However, I knew before the three of them danced for their lives, that the blonde was staying. First, because Nigel, the head judge, has a total boner for her, and he votes with his penis all the fucking time. Second, because he and the other judges were overly harsh in their critiques of both Emilia and...uh...the bellydancer whose name I'm forgetting. That their routines were not as bad as their critiques implied that the judges had made up their minds before the show even started.
That just sucks. It's a good thing for the girls they are having a top girl and a top guy this season, because with all the bland and unmemorable girls left in the competition, I'm thinking a guy would have won.
