And Now For Someone Completely Different: SYTYCD final 10
And it came to pass that day the couples were split asunder, and new couples were formed, and for some (Danny & Lacey, Lauren & Pasha) ,it was good.
For others, (Dominic & Jaimie, Kameron & Sabra), it was not so good. Yea, the wrath of the great Seer & Revelator Mia did come down upon Kameron, and smite him with the snap of "You danced immaturely!" And the inability of Dominic to waltz in the Spanish Viennese waltz did sorely vex Jaimie, insomuch that she smote the floor with her body at the end of their piece, causing the reputation of Dominic the Dropper to wax mightily.
And verily, there was handed down to the ten from the Prophet Wade Robson a solo, a piece of schmaltzy political correctness set to a mediocre pop tune, through which each dancer did struggle mightily. And verily some (Lauren, Sabra) did transform the solo into a mighty work of dance, full of grace and power and filling the stage with mighty screams and leaps against the foul nature of aggression, and ending with hope and smiles and the knowledge that they had prevailed against the suckiness. Yet most dancers were simply mediocre at best, wearing their shoulders around their ears and putting no measure of creativity into the solo, and so it did, in general, sucketh.
And it came to pass that it was predicted that either Dominic or Kameron and Jaimie or Sara would be cut this evening, with Jaimie being undeserving of such a blow.
And the hottest dance of the night, for which ye shall be surely damned for even watching, was the following (with more at Vance’s blog, btw)

I don’t know who “Gray” is, but the language they are using in this commentary is sounding like they are a Mormon. And as a mormon myself, I find it a little tacky and a little offensive. But the information is good.

LOVE your re-cap!! Too funny!!!! Keep um coming!
ballroombabe – I do apologize for offending you. I was, in fact, raised in a Mormon household, and so the language I used is reflective of a familiarity with the King James version of the bible. The tone came out of actually being recently reconciled with a Priest friend of mine (Catholic), and so the tone just kind of crept in. It was meant to be biblical, actually, rather than specifically Mormon, and I’m kind of embarrassed that you caught out my cultural conditioning.
It was meant to be amusing, rather than tacky, and certainly not offensive. Again, I apologize if it offended you – I respect the Mormons, and every other faith, as an individual choice and would never mean to ridicule your beliefs.
Kristi – Thanks! I will!
Actually, I thought you were going for King James/Monty Python. “And lo, it was a good hand grenade.”
