Poor Russell hurt his leg during the repeat performance from the three hip-hop dancers. He had to sit out for the rest of the show and we watched his top routines on playback from the original performances. BOO! He didn't seem all that banged up when they called his name for winner ... but lucky for him he's got $250,000 to cover those medical bills.
A few notes about this season:
- Adding Adam Shankman as a permanent judge was a bad idea. Awful. What was wrong with the rotating panel of choreographers? The only other person I would hated listening to more would've been Lil C. The way he phrases his comments drives me insane!
- The show did itself a disservice by airing back-to-back seasons within 6 weeks of each other. The ink was barely dry on Season 5 winner Jeanine's check before they were holding auditions for the next season. The plan obviously backfired because they didn't even have enough weeks to get to a final 4. We had to endure a Top 6 where there were no group dances or final solo performances.
- Not having Mia Michaels really brought down the level of dancing. There was some standout choreography from former contestant Travis Wall (give the guy an Emmy already) and Sonya Tayeh, but it's time to bring in some fresh hip hop dancers. Nothing against Tabitha and Napoleon, but their routines don't have as much sizzle as Shane Sparks' numbers had.
- Please stop with the lame guest performers. J-Lo? Adam Lambert? Really? All Lambert did was prove why he lost "American Idol". Whoever told him he could sing shout be carted out to pasture and shot. SHOT! And as much as I love me some Mary J. Blige, she did not belong on this show. Save it for "Dancing With the Stars", sister.
