Singing and dancing and dancing

So, Glee was on last night? And the only thing I really have to say is that the football player kid? Is way, way, way taller than Lea. I don't even know their character names. I feel like I should, as excited as I was about the premiere. That's got to be annoying as all hell to frame their scenes together.

I was not expecting as many songs as they did, which was awesome, but I was also expecting better sync between the scenes and the studio tracks. Like, Goldigger, yay! But I am not at all sure whether that was (supposed to be?) Will rapping the whole time?

I am not as excited for S6 of SYTYCD as I thought I was going to be, and I feel like I'd sort of already seen the episode, from the teaser clips they showed during S5. Like, I don't ever want to see that solo from Ryan, ever again, but I really loved it the first time I saw it.

I've been trying to stay away from casting spoilers, but I heard some things from early in Vegas week about returning favorites that has me not optimistic, so I'm just trying to not get all invested in the audition shows.

I've also been, uh, borrowing S2 of SYTYCD Canada. ( tl;dr )

And in other singing-and-dancing news, Ellen Degeneres is the new judge on American Idol? Am I the only one who finds the prospect of her sitting between Kara and Simon to be absolutely hilarious? I wonder if they'll change the seating. I'm sort of WTF about the choice in general, but I just can't picture how that's going to work, and I wonder how similar her comments are going to be to her guest-judging on SYTYCD, or whether she'll leave the schtick at the door. Or! If she'll just blatantly do impressions of the other judges, which would actually be awesome, like the play-at-home game of let's anticipate whether Simon is going to call someone a lounge singer or a bad karaoke act, or say it was brilliant.

And Maks and Carina (Karina? whatev.) broke up. Aw. Of course, now Maks is free to be rumor-milled with whoever he's paired with on this season of Dancing with the Stars, if he's on it? IDK whether he is, with the Broadway thing. Is that over? I am so lazy with the google today.

(no subject)

I'm sort of failing at paying attention to Project Runway. Usually, I end up watching the whole season when they do the marathon before the finale, or sometimes after the finale, so its a lot easier to learn the contestants' names.

So my main insight into the competition before this week? Logan is hot. He is good at making things with his hands including clothing. I bet he cooks too. He is totally the perfect man. I totally do not blame Fatma for having an inappropriate attachment to him.

This week, my Deep and Important thoughts are: Christopher's green dress was much prettier under the workroom lights. I do not, even slightly, get Epperson's aesthetic. I am also tired of the word aesthetic.
