Finally watched it tonight. I don't know whether they got a new director this year or what, but the camera work is even worse this season than before. Major synchronized group movement? Tight shot on that guy's back! Intimate, quiet moment? Three full rounds of SwirliCam! Fancy footwork? Tight three quarter shot! Jesus, I should not be yelling at the TV to let me just watch the goddamned dance. I liked the fact that it wasn't all pairs. The Bollywood number really benefitted from having four dancers. The next great frontier that this show needs to explore is to just pick the twenty best dancers, gender and style balance be damned.

Checked in on the feed briefly this morning, long enough to learn that Bella, along with everything else, is a chemtrails conspiricist. Of course. Why would I be surprised.

Fashion isn't fair. Would Korina rather have been in the bottom with Sandyha? Alexander? Hernan? It's not Char's fault that Korina was in the bottom; it's not Char's fault that Korina's second-chance look had so many issues. It's not Char's fault that the judges auf'd her. Whether Char should have been saved or not is irrelevant. Korina wasn't robbed of anything; she lost all by herself. Korina had been getting the villain edit big-time almost from the beginning, but they really ramped it up last night. I finally put two and two together and realized she was going home.
