I am in love.

If I could watch a Sonya dance routine performed by Jakob and Ellenore every single day for the rest of my life I would be the happiest person in the universe. MY GOD.

I agree with that statement so much that it's insane!!!!!!!!!!!

I have always always loved Sonya's dances. I feel like something in the way she moves speaks to me in a way above the way most all other dancers do. And I just had goosebumps all over. I adore Ellenore's style, and it really meshes well with Sonya's vision. And Jakob seems able to put his gorgeous lines and ability to defy gravity into whatever he tries.

UGH. It was my hands-down favorite last night. Only then was I upset that they cut the rehearsal bits (for time, I'm assuming) because I would have LOVED to see Sonya and Jacob and Ellenore working on it in the raw!

I would have LOVED to see those rehearsals. That would have been awesome. I love how she works with people, and I can just imagine Ellenore's smiles while they were getting stuff done. It was a packed show last night, though, so I can see why they had to leave it out. Still, definite sadface about that.

AGREED! From the moment Cat said jakob and Ellenore would doing a Sonya dance I knew it was going to be good, but that was just freaking AWESOME. I wish I could watch the behind the scenes footage of Sonya working with them during rehearsal. She is just so, so fantastic.

I'd actually ffwded through Cat saying that, so it was a total surprise what they came out with, but as soon as they started dancing I knew it was Sonya. I got all tearful when she was blowing kisses to them at the end. She seems to give so much to her dancers. I would have given a lot to see the behind the scenes stuff for that dance. *adores*

I love Sonya! She and Wade are my favorite choreographers on the show (although the new Broadway guy is moving swiftly up my list). And Adam was so right about the dance last night being the sequel to The Garden (which is exactly what I said when I was watching it)...in general, I love that Adam is a new full-time judge. I have to say that I agree with him nearly 100% of the time.

My other favorite is Will. I absolutely adore him, and wish he was my BFF. I really like Adam, but I really miss having the different judges each week, too.

I agree with him mostly, except for his utter adoration of Mollee. though I understand that more now that I know she was in the High School Musical movies.

that dance was awesome.

I really loved it.

OMG I KNOW. That was so utterly amazing. ♥

[identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com 2009-12-03 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
How amazing was that? I was just enraptured :D

Thank you for the comment on my blog, darling. I feel an idiot for being so needy. Blame it on the weather and my all-round weariness.

[identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com 2009-12-03 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
Any time. It's certainly not like I've never been there. ♥

Just stunning! God I love her choreography - her and Wade.

[identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com 2009-12-04 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
She is my favorite. And I love Will, too. I tend to be about half and half with Wade's dances. And he sometimes scares me :D

It's crazy how much I enjoy this show, given my hatred of voting off type shows usually.

[identity profile] locknkey.livejournal.com 2009-12-04 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
I love this show so much, but I'm kind of a crazy theater dance person. I tell my friends (in an attempt to addict them)if I had big bucks to spend I wouldn't see any better dance than what this show puts out - which is primarily becasue of the choreography.

The number done to 'bleeding love' powns my soul. I also like Mandy Moore and adore Mia Michael's numbers.

I have to admit - totally blanking on Will?

And, I really want S/D crossover fic because I'm silly that way. :)

that is because I keep calling Travis Wall "will" because he looks EXACTLY like a friend I used to have called Will. *facepalm*

I adore Mandy and love Mia's dances, too.

[identity profile] locknkey.livejournal.com 2009-12-04 05:32 am (UTC)(link)

LOL! That would explain it. :)

I adored Travis when he was on and his numbers have been just breath taking! This show is such a happy place for me. :)
