Learn more- It was down to the final 18 Tuesday on "So You Think You Can Dance?" as Mia Michaels joined judges Mary Murphy and Nigel Lythgoe. She promised that this season is going to be "benoodles," which she explained meant "insane." She said there are a few dancers in the final that she won't be sad to see leave, but the majority are fantastic.
Chelsea & Thayne: The dancers' intros would include a video bit on what their partners' best and worst qualities are about each other. Thayne said Chelsea is always positive and she said he's always smiling and in a good mood. On the bad side, he said she falls asleep too much and she said he's too superstitious. The couple picked a jazz routine with choreographer Mandy Moore. Mia said it was a great concept, but wasn't executed well at all. Mary agreed, saying she didn't believe the chemistry the way she did with the couple the previous week. Nigel, too, didn't like it and spent much of the time knocking their wardrobe, which he emphasized was not their fault.
Chelsie & Mark: Mark said Chelsie's hair smells good and she complimented his quirkiness. On the flip side, she said he's quiet and reserved while she's kind of loud. He said she's like a pesky little sister and hits him. The couple pulled the Argentine tango with choreographer Alex Da Silva. At the end of the dance, host Cat Deeley helped Chelsie get her pinky toe back in her shoe. Mia said she loved Chelsie and Mark and said she "adores" them. Mary said she loved everything about the dance. Nigel pretended like he was going to put a damper on all the praise, but he didn't. He said he loved it but thought Chelsie could have been a bit "sleazier," which is what the dance calls for.
Jessica & Will: Will said the best thing about Jessica is her joyful personality, and Jessica said his best feature is that he's so focused and professional. She added that sometimes he's too serious and he said that she suffers internal battles that make her question her ability. The couple pulled a hip hop routine with choreographers Cicily and Olisa. Mia said the choreography "is ridiculous," which she meant as a good thing. She said Jessica wasn't believable and it was like she wasn't on the stage; then she called Will a genius. Mary agreed, saying Will is a force to be reckoned with. Nigel gave Jessica a bit of a pass saying that he thought she did a good job. He reiterated that he thought Will would be in or near the final.
Kourtni & Matt: Matt said his favorite feature about Kourtni is her eyes, and she said the best thing about him is that he always compliments her. She said the worst thing about Matt is his singing, but he said the worst thing about her is that she doesn't have an ear for good singing. The couple that survived elimination last week pulled the foxtrot with choreographer Jean-Marc Genereux. Mia called the dance "great, old Hollywood elegance." She said Matt was fantastic, but that the only time Kourtni feels strong is when her leg is in the air. Mary loved the choreography but the rest was a mixed bag. She didn't like the footwork from either of the dancers because she expected better and said she was "slightly disappointed." Nigel said he wasn't disappointed, but he said it was a bit of a fake performance.
Courtney & Gev: Courtney said the best thing about Gev is that he's really strong, and he said the best thing about her is that she's really pretty while the worst thing is that she's got a boyfriend. She said the worst thing about Gev is that he's short, which makes them both look pretty short. They pulled a contemporary piece by Mandy Moore. Mia said Courtney did a good job but she is going to start expecting more from her. She was "so proud" of Gev. Mary screamed that she loved it and their chemistry is "killer" together. Nigel liked it overall, but said the emotional wasn't there.
Katee & Joshua: Katee said her favorite thing about Joshua is that he's a caring partner. He said he loved her smile, which makes him smile. She said the worst thing about Joshua is that he's always nit-picking her, and he doesn't like this sort of hands-behind-her-head dance she does when killing time. The couple picked a Broadway dance with Tice D'Orio. Nigel jumped out of his chair and started replaying some of the steps, shouting, "That's what I've been waiting for tonight!" He said it was "entertainment at its best." Mary said she loved it, very enthusiastically. Mia said there wasn't much more to add, but she said she wouldn't be surprised to see Joshua in the top four.
Susie & Marquis: Marquis said that Susie's best feature is that she always has energy and she said she loves that Marquis is that he's a goofball. She said the worst thing about him is that he is constantly eating, which gives him bad breath when they dance close. He said the worst thing about her is that her wild hair always smacks him in the face. They pulled a salsa with choreographer Alex Da Silva. Susie cried when she overheard Alex saying that she's "not really a salsa dancer, she's more of a street salsa dancer." Mia said she loved the choreography but wasn't crazy about the performance, saying Marquis was too much. She said Susie was hot but she didn't meet the high expectations. Mary said it wasn't working for her, either. She said they had no chemistry. Nigel said there were too many mistakes and that it wasn't fiery enough.
Kherington & Twitch: Twitch said he enjoys Kherington's reassuring positivity, and she said the best thing about him is that he's really muscular and she knows he won't drop her. Twitch said the worst thing about Kherington is her strong legs, because she's always accidentally kicking him. She said the worst thing about Twitch is that he wears fake glasses (frames that have no lenses). They pulled the Viennese waltz, choreographed by Jean-Marc Genereux. He had a unique connection to the song, which was inspired by his daughter, who has lost all her motor skills. Mia said she loved the whole essence of it, but said she found Kherington's constant smile was "a little glossy." This caused a bit of a stir as Nigel jumped in and said he loved Kherington's smile and found it uplifting. Mary got emotional as she told the couple how much she loved it. Nigel said Kherington flowed, had grace and had beauty. He also noticed that on a simple step, the couple breathed together and felt the music together.
Comfort & Chris: Comfort said she loved that Chris is so humble and he said the best thing about her is that she's versatile. He said the worst thing is that she talks fast, and she said the worst thing is that he sweats a lot. The couple pulled a krump routine with Lil' C, which forced Chris to call upon his inner tough guy. Mia said she's a huge fan of Lil C's work and said she's a huge fan of Comfort. She said she could tell Chris worked really hard because he pulled it off. Mary said Comfort could've "hit it harder" and that Chris was outshined by her. Nigel told Chris, "My granny is more gangsta than you." He also said he expected "far more" from Comfort than he got.
