Thayne and Chelsea are up first. Lets see if they can top their hot number from last week, with a Jazz routine from Mandy Moore.

Well they did knock on wood like a million times

....hmm i'm not sure if it was enough though

Did anybody get a King-and-his-Forbidden-Love vibe from that? The near-identical costuming really did not suggest any kind of social or class disparity between the two. When Thayne spurned Chelsea’s advance halfway through, Dancer X got THAT, but that could just have been Thayne’s character being an ass, not some kind of Upstairs/Downstairs thing. Had they had not prepped us on the king thing in the pre-dance interview, Dancer X would have had no idea.

I agree, the costumes were not that great, and they didn't really fit the King thing.

Yeah I'm not really impressed, it wasn't really jazz either?

And there wasn't enough energy to it.

Yeah, they weren't really connecting with the music or each other

I didn't think the routine was all that great either.

Yeah seriously, there wasn't any great memorable moves

The judges were right… no impact.

I still like these two, but this was not a great night for them.

Well, they had a fun intro segment which hopefully will help them, otherwise i'm not sure how many votes they'll get

Chelsea darling, there’s a big difference between saying “I’m the sassy one!” and actually being the sassy one. Thayne was sassier this week… his pre-show was more memorable and he did all the talking when Cat lamely had them defend themselves to the judges.

Lets hope they get enough to stick around

Mark and Chelsie are doing the Tango, I really wonder if they'll be able to connect with each other in a hot sexy dance

The tango is such a cliché that it’s difficult for Dancer X to get excited about it.

I wasn't thrilled with them last week so lets hope that the tango will give them points from me…. They got some points.

Chelsie was looking really good, but she kept looking at her feet the whole time...i wonder if it was because her pinky toe was out

For having that little issue, they did a wonderful job with that.

What Dancer X found most interesting is what Cat pointed out, how the costumes highlighted Mark being very sharp and angular and Chelsie being so curvy. Excellent choice, dress that accentuated the dancers instead of obscuring them. Ahem, Chelsea and Thayne.

They def had better costumes than the first pair, but I actually liked Mark more in this routine than Chelsie, his seriousness was used well in this dance

We all pretty much know what a tango is, and this pair delivered exactly that. There was nothing supremely challenging, especially for Mark, and aside from a cute leg-lock bit, nothing memorable. Dancer X would have liked to see more closeups of their faces, because the tango is supposed to be a romantic, passionate dance and Dancer X had difficulty finding that emotion with the camera zooming in from the back row. Dancer X suspects the judges overrated this pair. Last week’s Will and Jessica tango was more interesting, even in just the clip review segment.

Well, I always enjoy the tango so no wonder I enjoyed it. Moving on Jessica and Will are up next with Hip Hop

I think these two will have fun with this routine and I love when they use chairs

You know what Dancer likes? As you mentioned Julie, Dancer X too like props. It would have been nice to see those chairs bounce around the stage but even just having them on hand tells Dancer X that Dancer X is going to see something more interesting than all the boring ballroom junk.

I loved that. That was the best hip hop routine so far this season

Well, they looked like they were having fun, and they def gave it some energy, I was still hoping for bigger moves though

You could tell Will was the better of the two. But I don't think (except for her totally peppy smile) Jessica was bad at all.

Jessica wasn't bad at all, but when you put her next to a fantastic dancer like Will she pales in comparison

Will has a fluidity to his moves that – unfortunately – makes Jessica seem clumsy in comparison. It’s like in cheerleading, where your moves have to be crisp and snappy… when you have one cheerleader who is so sharp, it highlights the mushy mess of the girls surrounding her. Jessica probably deserves to worry. Dancer X barely watched her during the entire routine, even though her pants were falling off.

Kourtni and Matt will be doing the Foxtrot, let's hope they do better this week to stay out of the bottom three

Kourtni is wholly unlikable. The best thing she can say about her partner is how he compliments her? Go home. Dancer X is already weary of you and it's only been forty seconds.

Wow, they did soooo much better, they really made that dance look easy

The've gone from Human League video to "Dancing Lady" I enjoyed it.

I feel like they really commited to it this week I'm surprised Mary was disappointed

Me as well. I thought she would have loved that.

Dancer X liked their foxtrot, because it was plainly, unapologetically fun. That could have been taken directly from a period movie. Completely believable, with that effortless quality that a dance like that requires. The falling backward stunt was wonderful.

Courtney and Gev are going up now with a Mandy Moore Contemporary piece.

Joshua and Katee are up next with Broadway, i loved them last week, i hope they can keep the love this week

Lol, Nigel went crazy over that, but i agree, it was entertaining, and it was so much fun to watch

The judges liked that? Dancer X does not get it. It’s cheap and meaningless.

No way! that was Wow, forget the wii fit, just get yourself a Tyce choreographed Broadway number! That was fun!

Haha, so true, i'd love to do a dance number by Tyce

What a cartoon. How do you like something like that?

Are you kidding?? The Broadway numbers are killing this season.

It’s a hodge-podge, a medley, an unconnected shambles from one pose to the next. Joshua’s impressive leap was absolutely necessary because without it they have nothing more than a high school show choir bit on fast-forward. The difference between a happy piece like Kourtni and Matt’s foxtrot and this happy Broadway bit is that one is elegant and refined while the other is showy and obnoxious. Broadway sucks.

Seriously, i'm not always a broadway fan, and yes broadway is showy and obnoxious, but this was fantastic

Susie and Marquis are up next. We were not thrilled with their Waltz, but this week they have Salsa, which is Susie's area of expertise.

So unfortunately the "hot for teacher" girl will prob be safe another week...they better kick butt if she wants to get into my good graces

They did a good job with it, but this was not that greatest salsa number i have ever seen

What Dancer X is always looking for is what Dancer X does not expect, and these two mediocrlings did the expected. Every salsa dancer in the world has those moves. It wasn’t embarrassing like the Broadway nonsense, but it was nowhere near as impressive as Will’s ability to upstage Jessica, for example. Completely serviceable salsa, but it’s the same taste as ever. Dancer X is in complete agreement with the judges here. Nothing amazing.

I def agree with Mia saying the choreography was great, but the performance wasn't -Susie was unimpressive with some moves, she seemed a little hesitant

And she looked bad too, what is up with the black in her hair? I thought there were some good moves that they had, but in general, it was disappointing , especially from a salsa dancer like Susie

The hair was a lil weird, but i agree there was good moves like the throw off his shoulders, but those arm moves looked more difficult than it should

Kherington and Twitch are dancing the Viennese Waltz, i love these two...but this should be interesting

I hope they nail it, cause I never want to see these two go away!

Nice job on your abs, Twitch! Holy christ.

They danced that beautifully, it was really enchanting

Wow. Kherington was beautiful, and Twitch proved that he is so much more than a popper. That dance actually brought tears to my eyes.

I disagreed with Mia on the smiling thing, I thought it was great seeing Kherington smile, and I think she should have been smiling during the dance

I didn't even realize that Kherington had a big smile on her face, I was so lost in that dance. It was AMAZING. Quite possibly the best dance of this show.

Dancer X must stand apart. If this had been the first performance of the night, Dancer X would have forgotten it three dances in. Dancer X felt like the ponderous sick-daughter backstory here was unfair, as it added a dimension to their dance that is going to influence voters regardless of their level of boredom. This looked like a coffee commercial. Can Dancer X skip to the krumping please?

I think you're going to have to put the krumping on hold, Twitch and Kherington really drew me in with thier dance, I'm think i'm falling in love with this pair

And I am loving Nigel's history lesson. that was awesome. Now we can move on Dancer X...Comfort and Chris are closing out the show with the Krump. Comfort should be awesome at this. Let's see if Chris can keep up

Hmmm, mabye not so much

Forget Dancer X asked for krumping.

Well, comfort killed that, but Chris was really soft in his moves.

Poor Comfort. Dancer X forgot she was there because Chris took up the entire frame. Dancer X is sure she was great.

Comfort really impressed me with her skills, she threw everything at it, but Chris seemed like such a poser

From the first shot, with this giant white guy attempting the krump, he was distracting and awkward. And it’s not just that he’s white; Gev could have done this and been believable… it’s that Chris’s frame just can’t pull this off. He’s gangly and all limbs. He needs dances with flowing motion and wide expressions. The tight, hard moves of krumping simply do not suit him.

He didn't understand that concept of hitting it "hard". He didn't do bad, he just need to make his body pop a whole lot more than he did.

Oh yeah, he did the moves, but he wasn't into it

And good job picking a song where half the lyrics have to blanked out.

Holy cow, Nigel gave it to them, he was not impressed

He was absolutely right though. Nigel knows what he is talking about tonight.

OK, my bottom three for the night starts off with Thayne and Chelsea, they were in the dreaded first position, and they didn't kick butt. Susie and Marquis are in again because she was unimpressive in her category of dance...and i don't like her. Lastly Comfort and Chris, because I think people will remember how much Nigel hated it. I'm hoping beyond all hope that Susie goes home, and I wouldn't be surprised if Marquis joined her.

Dancer X found Katee and Joshua's Broadway Lite routine reprehensible. Susie and Marquis, Dancer X can't even remember what happened there, it was garden variety salsa. And Chris's pathetic krumping drags down Comfort with him.

Susie and Marquis, Comfort and Chris, and Chelsea and Thayne in my bottom 3 with Susie and Marquis both getting the boot. I like Chelsea, Thayne and Comfort a lot, but I think they just didn't do as well tonight as the others. As for my favorite, no surprise here, Kherington and Twitch. I just can't get over how amazing they were tonight. I also want to give Katee and Joshua, and Chelsie and Mark honorable mentions.

Dancer X suspects Chris tried but did not try hard enough, and that the female departure will be Susie, who talked big but performed little. Marquis should probably leave, Dancer X agrees with Daphne, but Chris was just so terrible.

My fav performances tonight were a tie between Twitchington and Courtney and Gev, i would be truly surprised to see either team in the bottom three

Dancer X must lend his considerable weight to Will and Jessica as best for the night, despite Jessica so obviously failing. Courtney and Gev are a close second, but Dancer X feels Courtney was a bit too young to seriously project the drama their piece required.

That is it for tonight, but we'll be back tomorrow with the results. I hope you are all remembering to vote, and won't let us down this week. And don't be afraid to let us know what your opinions are. Remember, Mia said tonight "everyone has their own opinions." So leave us some comments and let us know what you are thinking. Until tomorrow Dance-heads.
