This was a good week at So You think You Can Dance!  I really loved Kayla and Kupono’s performance.  They keep getting really cool choreography but obviously not all of America loves it.  I really  hate that they keep getting in the bottom 3.

I also really liked Caitlin and Jason’s “alien” dance. It was really cool and different and I think they are both great dancers.  I am really drawn to the dances that are unique and different.

Loved Jeanine and Phillip’s dance and didn’t think the chain was distracting like some of the judges. I am wondering if these two are seeing eachother after Jeanine let it slip that they were rehearsing in “their” apartment.  Hmmmmmm 

Melissa and Ade were also fabulous.  Their dance was very beautiful and Melissa really got to show off her ballet.

These 4 couples have become my favorites! So far I think that Kayla is probably the best female dancer.  Not sure who I think is the best male dancers.

I was very nervous with the bottom 3 and was so glad that Karla and Vitolio were the ones eliminated this week.

Another not so special week on The Next Food Network Star.  Debbie was injured when Michael hit her in the face with a metal sheet pan.  Katie served raw food again, I was actually shocked that she didn’t get kicked off.  Jeffrey was acting not at all like himself.  Jamika served a meal that looked totally disgusting and I felt sorry for everyone that had to taste it.  Once again the judges liked Melissa.  Still no one is really winning me over.

Ultimately Teddy was eliminated from the show.

For weeks now I have watched this show not really having a clue to who I thought the killer was.  Everytime a character seems suspicious they die pretty shortly after.  So as I watched this weekends episode I was trying to pay real close attention.

There are very few characters left and well we lost 5 on Saturday, 4 being main characters.  With only 2 episodes left could I possible figure this out??

A few weeks back I wondered to myself….why does Abby always get to go with the guys?  Why is Trish always left behind?  Why is Henry ALWAYS protecting Abby?  Why is Henry almost NEVER protecting Trish? Why is it that Henry is always telling everyone what they should do?  And more recently…..Why isn’t Henry shooting Wakefield?

I know that in the end of last weeks episode they made Jimmy look even more suspicious than usual but with 2 episodes left I can’t believe that all is going to be revealed so quickly.  I am really beginning to think that the Killer is Henry!  What is every one else thinking?

I have had a crazy busy week!  Wednesday night as this episode was recording we were tearing out our living room carpet and the DVR had to be unplugged.  Oh how sad I was when I realized I had only gotten the first 2 dances recorded.

I did however manage to see a few of the other dances thanks to youtube.com.  My favorites were Melissa and Ade and Randi and Evan.  I was not at all surprised to see Jonahthan and Asuka in the bottom 3,  nor was I surprised when the judges elimintaed them.

This is obviously super late since this show aired on Sunday but I just hadn’t gotten around to posting it.  for some reason this season I don’t seem to be connecting with any of the contestants.  The last couple seasons I already had a favorite or a couple favorties that I was rooting on but not this year.  So far I am more bored with the show than I have been previously.

Anyhow, Eddie Gilbert was eliminated from the show this week.

As we near then end of this season the episodes seem to be getting better and better.  I am really hoping there will not be a let down when all is revealed.

At the end of last weeks episode we got a glimpse of what made it look like the Sheriff is the killer.  So during this episode everyone was talking about how they thought the Sheriff is the killer and of course they found some circumstantial evidence pointing them in that direction.

State Troopers are flying to the Island to pick up J.d. who is no longer with us,  they are discussing the Wakefield murders.  When they land they are greeted by someone wearing the Sheriff’s jacket who ultimately shoots and kills them.

Jimmy is almost killed when the boat explodes but actually he is alive.  So is Jimmy the killer and just trying to make himself look innocent?  Or is the killer trying to make Jimmy look guilty?

Nikki finally shows up this episode.  She seems to have been awol for a while now.  Several of them are hiding out in the Cannery after the explosion.  Maggie shows up and decides she dosen’t have to stay because the killer isn’t after the locals because Nikki is still alive.  Her logic is stupid, the killer isn’t after locals?  What about the Reverend or the Deputy?  Anywho, she decides to leave.  Very shortly after there is comotion on the roof and Maggie ends up coming over the front of the Cannery and she is hanged.

By the end of the episode Abby is face to face with her father in her hotel room.  She is so convinced he is the killer.  But of course he isn’t.  The killer has him in a trap, after a few minutes of talking he is pulled out the window and hanged.

As Abby is leaving she comes face to face with John  Wakefield, he is alive.

So I am assuming that Wakefield has conspired with whomever is his child.  So I still think that leaves the other killer pretty open.  In the preview for episode 11 it looks like it’s Jimmy but every single they have made it look like someone was the killer that person turned around and got killled.  I am beginning to wonder if it isn’t Henry after all?!

This week the performances on So You think You Can Dance wreren’t quite as exciting as last weeks.  My favorite performances were Max and Kayla and Jonathan and Karla.  I also thought Randi was amazing as well as Ashley.  Sadly someone had to go!

First off I was a little upset when I saw the bottom three,  I didn’t at all expect to see Max and Kayla there.  After everyone completed their solos I was hoping that Max and Ashley would be eliminated based on the solo performances but I wasn’t sure if they would split up teams so early.  Low and behold they did.  Ashley and Max were eliminated and next week Kayla will dance with Kupono.

Due to technical difficulties with my DVR I only got 23 minutes of Sunday nights The Next Food Network Star.  Sadly 10 of those minutes was where it records past the show! Uggh

So I only got to see the elimination and this week Brett August was sent home.

Saturday nights episode was super creepy for me.  The whole crawling through small spaces gives me the heebie jeebies.

It amazes me with a killer on the loose everyone continues to run around, leave the inn and separate from each other.  Cal is a hero and saves the Sheriffs life this really turns Chloe on and afterward they head to the other room for some nookie.  Meanwhile Beth is missing, somehow she just disappeared.  So Abby, Henry, Danny, Jimmy and Sully head out to find her.  They discover some hidden tunnels under the inn and find a blood trail.  This part of the show was totally creeping me out.  All the crawling around in the teeny tunnels made me feel a little ill.  Eventually they find Beth’s mutilated body in the tunnels.

Abby gets separated and finds a room where Madison is sleeping.  She escapes with Madison and they climb up to a manhole but they cannot get out.  Oddly enough Madison waves her little hand through the grate just when Trish and Shea drive past and Shea sees her.  They get Abby and Madison out of the manhole and then head back to the hotel.

Meanwhile the killer manages to stab Katherine through the couch and in her back with a pair of pruning shears.  Shane is right there and doesn’t realize it until he tries talking to her and she dosen’t answer.

Only 4 episodes left and we will know for sure who the killer is!

This was a really good week on Dancing with the Stars!  I was quite impressed with many of the dances.  A few of my favorites were Phillip and Jeanine, Evan and Randi and Jason and Caitlin.

The choreographers are not wasting time bringing out the hard hitting performances.  I look forward to what I think will be an amazing season.

The bottom 3 couples were Tony and Paris,  Karla and Jonathan and Asuka and Ade.  In the end Tony and Paris were eliminated.
