Not a single dancer on any crew that's ever been on ABDC, even the crews I really didn't like, has ever struck me as the type to coast on pity.

Yup. Like I said in my review of the premiere, it's hard not to love watching a really good crew choreograph to those wobbles.

Lindsey doesn't really inspire much hate from me, mostly because she usually seems so lost on stage and I end up pitying her more than anything else. Yes, her enunciation is annoying, but at least tonight she had a song that was a bit more suited for it. Plus, I still really like her super angsty "Say Ahh" cover…

Pretty much.

Wish I could take credit for that photo selection - that is some choice Aguilera dead-eye action.

What can I say, it's a long show, and if I don't have anything in particular to say about a certain non-competition part of it, I'm not going to force it. Trying to keep these things under 2k words, because I know we all have places to be.

Okay, I'm just gonna say it, I miss Bonkers Lil Mama. Why does she look so sad this season? Seriously, just glue on some novelty eyelashes or SOMETHING, I'm worried 'bout you, gurl.

The closest I ever came to being a hip hop dance expert was when I signed up for dance classes during Season One (no joke) and then dislocated my shoulder. I've learned my lesson.

My thoughts precisely. I was SO excited to have another big opening number, since they always give me such delightful goosebumps, but this second wave of crews got screwed camera-time wise.

I don't know about "cooler…" maybe "more available"?

I sure would love to, but I'm not sure I can swing it this season. But who knows, if you bug Todd enough it could happen - I for one would also love to see it get weekly coverage.

ReQuest were so amazing, and I couldn't believe how early they were sent home, while ICONic Boyz made it all the way to 2nd place. That near-victory was the closest ABDC has had to a tweengirl voter upset, but the fact that it didn't actually happen lets me still have faith in the show.

Whoops, fixed that. Apologies, I write these things very late at night.

Love Grantland's coverage of the show. And any and all Bachelor-related drinking games are important and ought to be shared here. I'll order a case of Envolve 2011 Sonoma Valley Sauvignon Blanc just for the occasion. https://www3.cleverconcepts…

Oh yes, I nearly forgot… if this review gets 30,000 comments I did promise that I would apply to be on Bachelor Pad 3.

I would love that - the more these shows are treated like sports, the more fun I find them. If they actually announced ahead of time who the first round of matchups would be, it would be totally bracket-able. The Voice gets the most boring for me once the live shows start and it just turns into American Idol; it'd be…

I might have to borrow that next week.

I thought you were joking and just making up more nonsense words but then I wikipedia'd, and now I know all about mandibular condyles. I promise I'll give Charlotte a chance, especially since this is the first time y'all have told me I'm being TOO harsh on someone. I guess it's easy to get desensitized when everyone…

Nope - I was about to say something to that effect, but then thankfully she got out of her lower register and sounded more identifiably like a person.

You're right, I actually actively avoid all other television. Reading is also a drag. I don't even really know what they're talking about half the time on the A.V. Club, I just come here for all the positive male attention.
