Behind the Screen: So You Think You Can Dance: Season 8

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

Is it opposite day today? I thought maybe Ricky, Jess, Caitlyn and Jordan would prob be in the bottom 4. I don't think the rest "stink" in any case.

I'm just ready for Jordan to go. I'm also thinking that Jess will go as well. Those are the two, not necessarily my least favorites, that their dances didn't sit well with me last night. For some reason I can't stand Jordan though, she is my least favorite girl.

Same here. I actually like Jess, but for some reason, (maybe through the fault of the choreographers), the dances he does rarely let him shine. So he is kinda the weakest guy. Jordan needs to go though. She always does that high kick/developpe thingy and nothing else. She annoys me too. But I personally think the judges like Jordan better than Caitlyn, maybe because her personality hardly comes out, idk. I wouldn't doubt that they'd send either home. Right now, it's kinda obvious who the four best/most liked dancers are IMO.

Marko, Melanie, Sasha, Tadd? I haven't been keeping up with this season, but I did get to watch part of last night and I was surprised to learn that Tadd was a b-boy. He danced very well.

You're definitely right about that. It's a no brainer to me. I do like Ricky, Jess, and Caitlin, but they aren't cutting it along with Jordan who needs to go.

I loved when Lady Gaga threw one shoe to the girls (Sasha and Melanie), and then the other to the choreographer. Sasha was holding onto that shoe for dear life and Melanie kept trying to get her mitts on it too. I don't know why i don't like Melanie, she's an amazing dancer, but as soon as she isn't dancing i can't stand her. I also agree that Jordan should be the girl to go tonight. Her extensions are sick, but I like Caitlynn better.

Yes, those four. And even not keeping up with the season, you can see that. :P

Me too. He was good too.

I'm already mad about the two that have made it through to the next round :( Not good. EDIT: NOOOOOO my favorite girl was eliminated, although I guess I should have seen it coming.

Totally agree! Caitlynn was my favorite girl too, but i knew she would be the next girl to go. I'm team Sasha now because Melanie (even though her dancing is beyond amazing) rubs me the wrong way. I felt they should have been more harsh on Melanie last night with that hip-hop routine, but it is what is.

Thank you!!!!!! I mean I don't dislike her because she can dance, her solo was banging, but the judges are so partial. The hip hop wasn't that good and in the other dance, I thought Tadd did really well and they kinda ignored him and focused on her.

Yes! I would have much rather seen Caitlynn make it to the end with Sasha. I couldn't believe the raves Melanie was getting for her hip-hop routine, she was terrible!! But I must say, I am VERY happy with Sasha, Tadd, and Marko being in the top. Can't wait for the finale and I REALLYYYYY hope "America's Favorite Dancer" isn't Melanie....

Definitely not the way I wanted it to turn out, but it was very predictable. It's like the judges were so pushy as to who they wanted to win. They never really ever criticized her performances and I just didn't really like her whole personality I guess. Ugh.

I agree. I hoped Sasha would be the winner. I felt like she danced outside her genre more and better than Melanie. What a bummer!

I totally agree. I think the judges spoon fed her through-out the entire challenge. The girl can dance, but I think she walks a lot during her dances and they didn't give her any kind of ballroom, she basically danced Contemporary, jazz and 2 hip hop routines. I thought Sasha was more versatile too. I think the fact that the judges pushed so much for her and it was predictable made me dislike the finale. I thought it was a gave away how much everyone liked Melanie when Katt brought up the guest judge's future show and asked if Melanie could take part in it... I mean, come on, if that doesn't scream partiality, then what does? I like Marko, but idk, I just like Tadd more. I felt as though Tadd should have come in 3rd because he danced a lot of different styles and was good at them all, but Marko basically sucked at that stepping routine. He's a great contemp dancer tho. Anyway, still Team Sasha.

If they cut the result show then there's no show. Who is going to wanna watch that?
