I love Stephen and have been rooting for him since the beginning. But I've found all his dance to be, as you say, clunky. He's enthusiastic and athletic; but he is not graceful. Although I have a theory based on his high scores (and Chandler's) -- now that Eric and Reginald are gone the judges can give higher scores without making it so obvious that Eric and Reg were just really, really bad. 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150008-s33e05-dedication-night/#findComment-8481713
