I actually thought this was Stephen's worst dance. Kind of clunky in spots.

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.

I will never like Contemporary. Even when they're pretty. It's just so damned subjective. And often too emotionally manipulative. 

I'm glad the judges called them out on the side by side spins being out of sync.

I totally agree with your earlier post, Contemporary ain't it for me either. It is too subjective and emotionally manipulative. Carrie-Anne's crying was over the top.

I love contemporary. However, I do think it is a bad fit for this show because it is so subjective.

Yes - I should clarify, I hate it on this show because judging it against traditional ballroom or Latin dances is like apples and oranges. Something that has no rules versus dances that do. It's total B.S.

Were on the same page then 😊

it would only be fair if everyone danced contemporary on the same night.

Val and Phaedra 

That  was lovely,  so much better. She looked softer   and she danced softer..

I liked it, too. I've been liking all the dances tonight. 

Wow, that story about Haley and her health scare. Damn. How frightening. I'm so glad she's doing so much better and wish her well. That was a truly emotional dance.

I think with Joey, he just isn’t athletic and musical, but he has the performance aspect down and actually leads.   Sure, he can refine some details, but considering he wasn’t a dancer, he is doing phenomenally.

Agreed. Capturing the performance/emotion aspect of a dance can be really tough in its own right, so I admire anyone who can make that work.
