blodeueddSo I finally started watching this year's So You Think You Can Dance and just the first episode brought many, many lulz. Of course, the auditions are always funny, but these ones were especially hilarious because of the judges. How I envy them their jobs! Nigel, Mary and Mia just seem like they have so much fun together: Mia and Mary giggling like schoolgirls, Nigel trying -- and totally failing -- to keep things somewhat serious for all of five minutes. But Mia's Freudian slip (Nigel: "Mia, how successful is Jonathan* going to be in America?" Mia: "Not very sex- sex- successful!") set the tone for the whole Los Angeles auditions, and it was hilarity from then on. And while Mary's shrieking can get annoying later on in the show, I felt that each and every one of her shrieks (many of horror) were 100% justified here.
Other notes:
1. Cat Deeley is seriously hot. I mean, I'd noticed it during last season (and in season 2, though whoever was dressing her then seemed to go out of their way to mess with her gorgeous proportions, because her dresses never seemed to be the right length), but the black vest over the semi-sheer shirt with her hair pulled back in a messy pony-tail was damn sexy. It might possibly have been even better if she'd been wearing glasses, but then it would have been a bit too "sexy librarian/schoolmarm" cliché, so this was just about perfect. *wipes up drool*
2. "I think they're racist against tall people." XDDD Oh, bitter sucky dancers who were told "No!", don't ever change!
3. HOW CAN THOSE POPPERS MAKE THEIR BODIES MOVE LIKE THAT?!?!? I can't wrap my brain around it. All I know is that I want to see more.

And speaking of Argentine tango, there's an Argentine movie about the tango (simply called "Tango", directed by Carlos Saura) that had me mesmerized throughout, the dancing was so gorgeous. Actually, I want to see it again. And there's a torrent for it! *totally downloading*
