Draft #2

Player 4: @Alex95 - Ariana Madix, Charity Lawson, Barry Williams, Harry Jowsey

I feel like there's a world where three of my draft picks make finale lol. Just swap Barry with Jason.

Barry deserves!

 

But yeah idk, I’m getting a vibe Harry’s gonna be here for a long while..

[Alex95]

It’s very weird enjoying everyone this season. I genuinely love watching 8 of the remaining 11 dancers and Mauricio & Adrian seem to be on their way out sooner rather than later. Harry could become an issue, but I’m gonna remain optimistic until he does become an issue.

Between being a social media whore and the partnership with an Arn*ld sister, I think Harry is found for the finale unfortunately.

I'm personally trying to take one for the team and see if it's true if I vote for Harry if I'll get free access to his OnlyFans. LOL.

Also, the opening pro number is to “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” from

Encanto

[*Wallace]

I didn't expect 6 never before used song choices so I will certainly take that. Though we still got a few super overdone songs but that's to be expected.  Looking forward to the dances though!

[Elliott]

Not my favourite dancing to a BatB song.

 

[*Amanda]

Some dong choice thoughts:

 

Surprised it took the show this long to use “Into the Unknown”

 

 

“Be Our Guest” again? I love the song, but we could’ve used “Something There” instead of reusing this one.

 

Someone good finally getting the obligatory Little Mermaid dance? I love it.  
 

Finally they’re using “Can You Feel the Love Tonight”! This is one I’ve wanted the show to use for a while, so I’m glad  they’ve using it instead of the usual go-tos for The Lion King.

 

”Baby Mine” is an unexpected choice but it’ll suit the Viennese Waltz well. Would probably be more excited for this dance if someone besides Adrian were dancing to it.

Thankfully that 1 is one of the strongest competitors or else I'd be BONED

[Alex95]

YASSSSSSSSS

 

[*Wallace]

Yayy spoilers!

 

Thoughts:

LOL so it's a night of only Contemporary and Viennese Waltz's?

 I really wish there were more variety amongst the styles but oh well. Of the song/styles combo, I'm most looking forward to Alyson, Ariana, Barry, Charity, Lele, Mauricio, Mira and Xochitl's dances.

 

"Keep Your Head Up" is interesting/odd for a Contemporary though I am sure that will be re-arranged.

 

Although I do kinda stan Barry and Jason's draws of dances this week for not dancing a Contemporary and Viennese Waltz. Though I don't like Jason's song choice for his dance, lol.

[*Amanda]

So many Contemporaries.

 I knew there would be some, but not THIS many.  
 

I feel like Perfect is another song that has been used so many times.  
 

Jason getting a fun, upbeat dance in a sea of Contemporary and Viennese Waltz…the one person with the upbeat MMY dance always feels so out of place.

Pretty sure unless Mira wants to scab they cannot do a Romy & Michelle themed dance directly.

True, but I feel like they can maybe sneak a few moves in without directly referencing it. I mean last episode was a whole propaganda night for Disney movies which I'm sure already toed the line of scabbing lol.
