Reality Redux: So You Think You Can Dance-So Long to Two More
2009-11-19 / Woman's Day
I wasn't the least bit surprised by last night's bottom three couples: Karen and Kevin, Channing and Victor, and Mollee and Nathan. None of them really stood out during Tuesday's performance show, and for Channing and Kevin it was the end of the road. Their solos didn't sway the judges and they were both eliminated. As Nigel pointed out, Channing's a good technical dancer, but her personality didn't always shine through. And Kevin simply hasn't grown enough during the competition to merit keeping him around. -Angela Ebron
