'Dance' says bye-bye to one more guy, one girl

Well, it went down exactly as we thought it would, didn’t it, America?
Chelsea Traille is the gal going home, and Chris Jarosz is saying see ya, too.
After six solos that, quite frankly, reeked of desperation—the judges must have scared the bejeezus into them last week about the seriousness of “dancing for your life”—the judges quickly dumped Chelsea.
She probably wasn’t surprised. It was her time to go, since her performances haven’t improved much, no matter what the genre.
Last night also showed how quickly this contest is narrowing. Because unless some major upset or injury happens, I’m guessing the next girls to be booted will be in the order they were chosen for the Bottom 3 last night—Comfort, then Kourtni.
As for Chris, did anyone truly think he wasn’t leaving?
Nigel said what we were all thinking: Matt, you’re brilliant—go sit down. We all know it’s down to Chris and Thayne.
Even I’ve got to admit Thayne gave it his all in his solo. Chris was fine, and that’s sort of the point. He’s just fine. Vanilla-bean Boy just couldn’t manage to distinguish himself; he didn’t even seem to know how to try. So he was sent packing.
His elimination also marked the first time any of the couples have been split up, which means that Comfort will partner with Thayne next week. Now, Comfort and Chris were a mismatch from the start, and I suspect that the judges have kept her around because they see a lot of potential in her with a different guy.
But Thayne? That’s not exactly the best connection, either, and when Nigel announced that pairing, I’ll bet Comfort sighed and said, “Oh well, it was nice while it lasted….”
Anyway, now that we’re down to the Top 14, do you think it’s becoming more apparent who’ll be the Final Four?
I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if this ended up being an all-guy, or, at least an almost all-guy, season finale.
Because the way this competition is going, it’ll take a train wreck—of the Hot Tamale Train, perhaps?—to stop the momentum of Will, Joshua and Twitch…
