SYTYCD Season 5 ep22

Any finally its here. The last performance show of the season. A season that probably wasn't as impressive as the previous 4 and didn't have that many personalities to get behind. Anyways, final 4 - Jeanine, Brandon, Evan and Kayla.

The show kicked off at the new venue - the Kodak theater. And it looked kind of awkward to see them all there, but still, the stage looked really good.

It all kicked of with a Wade Robson routine, which was somewhat not as good as his other routines that we are used to seeing. The jock/cheerleaders theme wasn't anything special. Here it is again for those that missed it



Once again the producers kept the same chronology for the show - group number, solo, couple number, etc.

With the group number out of the way we get to the solos. Brandon was at his usual standards and Evan did what he does every time. Kayla, when she does her solos, for some reason they lack passion or intensity and though they are technically good, they don't grab you at all. And we get to Jeanine. The girl has the best musicality of all them and here solos just make you watch. For me she had the best one of the night and if i had to pick someone to win this thing it would be her. Here is what she did last night:



So couples. Everyone danced with everyone and the finale was underwhelming. no hip-hop routine, a lot of jazz and broadway as well as ballroom. Only two of the routines were good enough for me - Jeanine and Kayla's contemporary piece by Mia Michaels and the Paso Doble by Brandon and Jeanine. The rest I could have done without. Didn't entice me at all to make it interesting to watch and would most likely not hit the rewind button to watch it again.
Here are the 2 good rouines which were worth for the final.



so, ladies and gentlemen. what did you think of this seasons finale? was it what you expected? are you waiting in anticipation for Season 6 to kick of in about a month? Which of this final 4 do you want to see crowned America's favourite dancer?
Just saw a new article at ew.com for some of the 15 great SYTYCD routines that they have had on the show, so be sure to check it out

OK, so another results show, two more dancers are gone. For those that didn't see the show last night and still want to watch it (DVR, torrents etc) don't read onwards.

So the show started with a Wade Robson routine which was a good one.



Also they announced that the show got 4 Emmy nominations this year. Chelsea Hightower was in two of those so I am happy. She is one of the best they have had a such a personality - really good. So i hope any of the 2 she is in of the nominated wins.
BTW what a bummer - NO nomination for Cat in the reality host category?!? i mean...come one...there is no one better at this gig than her! but lets not get carried away with the Emmy snubs as there are others that I am pissed about.

So in the bottom two there were Randi and Mellisa, for the girls - as predicted, and Kupono and Ade for the guys. For some reason they decided to do their solos from the previous night - maybe they should have done something extra special since it would be their last dance on the show.
Nevermind....Kupono was voted off from the guys and Randi from the girls. Completely expected. Also for next week, unless Melissa picks something really in her style and doesn't have to do a solo I don't see her progressing. Especially if she picks hip-hop..

So what do you think? Who would be gone next week? Are you psyched about next week shows? Ellen Degeneres will be part of judging panel and on the result show we will see some of the best routines from the previous seasons like the Bench and Ramalama

As before I go. Here are the nominated routine with Chelsea from last year. Enjoy
