*Wallace Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 7 hours ago, Deeee said: I never said spare all of them - I said that I would be upset if all of their stuff just gets cut, particularly their best work. Benji and Donyelle routines/solos are dropping like flies and I am here avoiding cutting a routine I dislike to ensure everyone is happy/all favorites are represented. Then immediately two Donyelle solos are cut. Ooh, ahh alright, that's fair. I just took it all the other way. I do also think this is the case with other contestants, as I also felt Allison and Travis routines were dropping like flies in earlier rounds. Same with Heidi too. All in all, cuts are just really tough. And if I really had it my way, I would lose all of the solos except "Some Girls," as the routines mean so much more to me. I enjoyed most of the solos that advanced, but I just don't remember or connect as much to them as the routines. 1 hour ago, JC said: I spared the benjelle routines for you although I also like them so I prob would not have considered them i had no idea I was supposed to spare solos too though, that would have been tough considering the routines left MTE. But I'll admit I probably mistook his comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I'm sad to see La Comay go as well, although there were a number of routines I'm more passionate about (and already lost a bigger fave).

Deeee Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Just now, Alex95 said: Top 30?! No wonder lol I think limiting it to only 20 for some seasons actually does a disservice to the game. LOL. For the majority of the seasons, the first week alone has ten duets. Not to mention all the solos + group routines. So there are nearly 20 routines to consider for the first week of the competition alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeee Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 S5 has a lot of good routines when considering group routines + solos as well. Love Lockdown probably does not make the Top 30. But if anybody lays hand on a single Jeanine solo we are fist fighting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
