Yes, please.

In E3 have a horde of walkers kill: Madison Travis Ofelia Chris If the remainder of the cast can't make use of a larger amount of face time to become more interesting characters, then in E5 have a horde of walkers kill: Alicia If the showrunners can't figure out how to make the show interesting with the three remaining cast members (Strand, Nick, Daniel), then in E6 have a horde of walkers kill: Showrunner Dave Erickson

Poor Jodie! She has much more ability than her partnership with keo allows for her to develop. I don't know what it is with him, but I saw him in the DWTS tour last year and noticed this problem even in his pro partnering. It was almost distracting how unaware of and unconnected to his partners he seemed to be. His solo work was better. Adding to this impression, I'd say that in his 4 seasons on DWTS he's a terrible choreographer, not a good teacher, and not a good partner.

Are you a big fan of Chris Hardwick and The Talking Dead, like I am? That might be the only thing that keeps me watching, at least for awhile, especially if the Strand character has no early pay-off. I'm still smiling about Hozier being the guest panelist. Hardwick is always a pleasure to watch, and I love Hozier, so bonus!

Yes! Maybe not "unlikable" so much as boring. The Governor was unlikable, but David Morrissey acted the crap out of that role. He wasn't boring. Almost the entire lead cast of Fear is simply...uninteresting...completely lacking in charisma. If I keep tuning in for awhile, it will only be to see if the Strand character develops into someone interesting, because the actor is doing a good job with what he's been given. At least I kiiinda want to see what he's up to.

Heh. I thought we went through a time warp and we were back on the old twop boards. Angie Miller probably wasn't there because she thinks she's too good for this show since she got to sing a duet with Adam Lambert. (I kid, I kid)

Memba this? Season 8 finale...it was the only time I liked Kara Dioguardi, because she totally pwned Bikini Girl.

I was in tears from laughing all the way through JLo's segment. My first thought was, "OMG, Not Yo Mama is the perfect bookend to her S13 performance of I Luh Ya Papi!" Yo Mama, Ya Papi. Heh. When SiCo first came out, I thought, "Hello, Simon's botox, facial fillers, and new teeth!" His face doesn't even look like him anymore.

I would guess, too, that there must be some kind of reasonable expectation that sensitive legal documents of a large bank would contain privileged information that requires it to be stored in a secure location and only accessible by certain designated employees. Surely there would be legal, if not criminal, negligence if a member of the firm were taking file boxes full of the bank's documents home with him/her. If HHM discloses that the files were tampered with off-site, someone is going to be interested to know what other client files HHM allows employees or associates to remove from the premises.

Poor Trent. He's on the threshold of either being the last winner ever of American Idol, or at least the last runner-up ever. Yet he only has 5 comments on his thread. Doesn't seem right...so I'll do my part and make it 6 replies. I enjoy Trent's performances, and think he's an outstanding vocalist. His first performance of "Chandelier" was one of my favorite Idol moments in the last many years.

I think that's true. The Forbes calculations are for June 2014-June 2015. Since Adam continued stadium touring with Queen through September 2015, he'll pick up another Queen bump that goes into Forbes 2016 calculations. Those remaining 2015 tour dates, plus the 2016 European summer festival tour with Queen, will all be included in Forbes 2016 list. Adam may well top the Forbes list again in 2016. The Queen collaboration has been unimaginably profitable for Adam Lambert, and he can thank American Idol for the introduction.

Phillips was the third highest earning male AI contestant in 2015, though it's true he was the top earning male winner. Forbes 2015 List of highest earning American Idols: 1. Adam Lambert - $15M 2. Carrie Underwood – 8M 3. Chris Daughtry – 6M 4. Phillip Phillips – 5M 5. Kelly Clarkson – 4M 6. Scotty McCreery – 4M Oh god. That's depressing.

LOL! The episode where they paired previous contestants with the aspiring contestants for duets, as soon as I heard that Constantine Maroulis was going to be one of the previous contestants, I screamed: "Oh my God! They just have to put Constantine with Dalton!" The thought of seeing the two of them singing together while trying to upstage each other with fake, smarmy eyefuckery would have been comedy gold. Instead it was a missed opportunity and I resented being deprived of the spectacle.

The only way it's even a little bit plausible is if Dwight is one third of a trio of identical triplets sneaking around. They can have a big reveal in the finale, when they introduce all three of them together. Dwight can say, "Hi, I'm Dwight. And this is my brother Dwight, and this is my other brother Dwight."

Wade Robson has resurfaced with a beautiful new video and a new youtube channel. Allison Holker is one of the dancers. If there other SYTYCD alumni in this, I don't recognize them. Now that SYTYCD has become a (doomed to fail) kiddie show, we need a show for adults. Maybe call it "So You Think You Can Choreograph" and incorporate some of the ideas others previously posted on this thread.

That would be hysterical! They could include the added twist that with each new baby she loses all memory of the previous one. Diana who?

So agree with everyone who posted that Stephany was robbed. Of this, the final season's crop, I thought she was a good enough singer to make it to the Top 3. She's also gorgeous and looks every inch the pop star, so bonus. Sorry, Stephany. Now appearing in the role of Sanjaya is Jeneve, the whacked out clown who's going to be hard to get rid of. She, who will inevitably cause me to tune out before the Top 8 because I won't be able to stand one.more.minute of her. Was good to hear Fantasia, Reuben and Caleb. One-note Scotty and Shouty Lauren Alaina, you both still suck. Nick who?

Me too. Peace out, SYTYCD. I hope you go down in flames right out of the gate.

Yes, please! Russell Wilson would be awesome!

I.cannot.wait.

Thanks, edited to fix it. Sadly, you're probably right that if the show has good ratings they're not going to re-tool it. I'll check in when S2 starts, but absent major cast changes, it won't stay in my season passes.

Strand is the only character I have even the slightest bit of interest in. That's a problem for a low-budget show that has to depend on compelling characters, great ensemble acting, and decent writing that by necessity has to revolve around character development. Therefore, my wish list for season 2 episode 1 is that zombies kill all the survivors in Strand's house except Strand. They wouldn't have to blow their budget, because with these dumbass characters it would only take two or three zombies. Then re-boot the whole show with an entirely new cast.

Oy, now you've done it. I had to go youtube that routine, which lead me to more youtubes of the final 4 of season 2. *Sigh* those were the glory days of SYTYCD, a show I used to love. Wow, Wade Robson and Shane Sparks choreography! Benji, Heidi, Travis and Donyelle...true dancers who excelled in so many genres, including *gasp* so much ballroom (Latin and American), which I adore. Damn this show, it used to be great. Now this will probably be the last season, and I find myself not caring.

Katrina and Henry are both still dead...right? Retcon I can deal with. I'll give the show at least part of one more season to re-earn my happiness as long as Katrina and Henry stay really most sincerely dead.

Me too. It was sad to see Jim get the Danny Tidwell treatment.
