I'm just thankful Brandon is still there. He's the only one truly worthy.
Kayla is great but the reality is...the public just doesn't like her that much. She's been in the bottom almost every single week. There's no way she's suddenly gonna become the most voted person. She was FANTASTIC last night, and she still ended in the bottom 2.

I'm praying Brandon wins this cause he's the only dancer that's been fantastic all season.

Well apparently Ade has been added to the "Hacked Nude Photos List". The photos are very interesting and strategically posted a week before the final round of the competition.

It's interesting to me that this might sway voters. Who cares if he posed nude. It has nothing to with how well he dances. I suppose many people live with closed minds though don't they.

I swear they are borderline nude on stage the majority of the time any way.

I really think Evan is not versatile enough.

I don't like Kayla as a dancer. She brings no emotion to the stage for me. And I thought her disco last week was AWFUL. Her worst dance of the season. She danced heavy and clunky through the whole thing. I have NEVER had such an opposite reaction than the judges to a dance in the 4 seasons that I have watched this show.

Jeanine and Brandon are my two favorites left. I'll see which one dances better in the finale. Whichever one that is will be who I am voting for.

I sincerely hope Brandon does not win. I hope he is the Adam to Jeanine's Kris.

JEANINE <3.

This is becoming even more of a popularity contest than I was expecting. I expect Evan to be in the final two with Jeanine. Hopefully fans of the other better dancers will coalesce around Jeanine, I hope and pray, and she will win. I feel that will happen as I do not see Evan's base of nutty fans growing.

Evan was an early favorite, but I never wanted him to win. I expect him, possibly, to get fourth?

I dunno, I just love the way you worded your desire to see Jeanine win .

Well, you can safely take Kayla out. She's been in the bottom so much, there's no way she can win. Even if she's the best one out of the 4 on Wednesday, people still don't vote for her.

It should easily be between Janine and Brandon...but sadly, Evan seems to have a lot of fans, and it will be a travesty for this show if Evan wins.

I don't get the Evan hate - he's a fantastic dancer, and even if he can't do hip-hop, he has the most talent of any guy this season (except for Brandon) - and his contemporary dance with Randi for "Koop Island Blues" is one of the better finals performances on the show thus far.
But Brandon is indeed the best and most versatile and I'm betting that he'll probably win.

I have no idea why Kayla is still here - she's been pimped to high heaven by the judges but she simply isn't that good. Janette should be there in her place.

Mia's Butt routine is still my absolute favorite of the season thus far. And I've been absolutely addicted to "Koop Island Blues" ever since. I still love Evan and he remains one of my all-time favorites. Frankly though, TOO MANY guys win. And not a single winner in this show's history has been someone I rooted for. Jeanine could change that, and I hope she does, but I'm worried Brandon might take it.

Frankly, Evan is the black hammer this season (first Janette, then Melissa...so when the judges inevitably praise the overlauded Brandon more than Evan for the boy-boy routine, my only hope is that it backfires).

Moving along, I do like Brandon. He'd probably be my favorite winner, but that's really not saying much.

I think Kayla gets too much hate, but I do think Janette should be in her place. How did she last THIS long? I figured the lovefest would backfire on her, not Janette.

Jeanine though...ever since she outdid Phillip in every routine, particularly the Broadway one Top 16, and then had that INCREDIBLE solo Top 14, I've been smitten. Her solos since then are on and off, but that Travis Wall Contemporary routine is to date the best thing I've ever seen on this program.

More importantly, she reminds me of Kris Allen. She wasn't prognosticated as someone with early winner potential, but rather earned it and fought for it. She is the only girl, solo, never to be in the bottom. I can sorta draw American Idol comparisons here:

Jeanine = Kris (underestimated but talented)
Brandon = Adam (talented but a bit too perfect)
Evan = Danny (Evan >>> Danny, but neither B3ed)
Kayla = Allison (in the bottom the most)

The judges, I think, seem to want a girl to win this year and they usually get what they want. Last year, it was obvious they wanted Joshua to win, because they wanted a black winner and a Hip-Hop winner. But they probably have more fondness for Kayla, 'cause of her legs. Although Nigel seems to be very horny for Jeanine, which could work in her favor, hahaha.

Oy, Idk, logic on this show....

I actually want Brandon to win at this point... and had wanted Janette to win before she got canned. If the competition is between Jeanine and Evan though, as I predicted, then I would be a Jeanine supporter all the way.

Evan cannot do hip-hop and he looks silly doing the tango, rhumba, samba and all the dances that call for passion and sexiness. He is good within his style, even though his cutesy mugging annoys me and I would hope to not see that in a Broadway show, and usually passable at best, AT BEST, in other styles. Also, every one of his solos looks almost exactly the same... though I will admit to being impressed by his flip last week.

^What he said.

Yeah, I was really hoping Evan would do well when we saw him during the audition routines. However, he has not worked out as well as I hoped. He just isn't versatile.

My favorite was Janette. I am still bummed that she was voted out. How could that happen? Argh!

Anyway, I am left with Jeanine and Brandon as the two dancers I like. I think Brandon has shown a lot of versatility and is one of the best performers in the competition. I love Jeanine's personality she brings to dancing. These two have great technique, but what I love is how much passion and energy they bring to all their dances.

I'm actually still seething over Natalie Glass not getting into the Top 20.

Jeanine's personality grates on me but I won't lie that she's one of the show's better dancers. I miss Philip.

Here's how I want the finale to play out...
4. Evan
3. Jeanine
2. Kayla
1. Brandon

Here's my prediction (granted this could and probably will change after Wed's show)
4. Kayla
3. Jeanine
2. Brandon
1. Evan

I admit, I am greatly afraid that Evan is going to win. It worries me that he has never been in the bottom.

I wonder if there is any sort of organized fan effort to massively block vote for one of the other dancers? (Preferably Jeanine or Brandon. LOL) Hmmm, perhaps I will troll the SYTYCD sites and find out.

Again, I warn you that Evan fantards will be VERY bitter when the inevitable happens, where they criticize Evan but praise Brandon. The girls are one thing, but they're not gonna take kindly to that. At least not on IDF!

Anyway, don't fear about the lack-of-bottom-placement: Lacey Schwimmer of S3 never hit the bottom as a couple w/ Kameron or as a soloist, and she came in "fourth". So, fear not, chile.

(I put 4th in quotes, by the way, because they never explicitly state the rankings. However, I feel it is implied nonetheless. But Wikipedia has issues with this. Twatwaffles.)

Jeanine's the only one I can feel any joy for winning. I actually think she has the best personality .

Well, this is gonna be interesting, folks.
There's no doubt whatsoever that Brandon and Jeanine should win this. And the judges made sure the viewers knew that. They bashed the HELL out of Evan. I started thinking "I hope this doesn't backfire"...and then the "Evan" chant happened...and I thought "oh no".

The judges seem to realize that their obvious vote swaying attempt could backfire, and they backed WAY off on the bashing of Evan for the rest of the show.

Jeanine and Brandon just nailed it tonight. Both their solos were just phenomenal.
Kayla was fantastic as well tonight, but she ain't gonna win.

My gut prediction is Jeanine...but my god, if Evan wins this, it's gonna be a tragedy.

Kayla, Brandon, and Jeanine would all be very deserving. They are all extremely talented in their own rights.

Evan should have never been in the Top 10, to be frank. Many better dancers were eliminated before him and I can't seem to put my finger on any rational motivation for voting for him. Yes, I'm still bitter.

That last routine between Brandon and Jeanine was fantastic - probably one of my favorites of the season.

I'm in the ABE boat: Anybody But Evan!

Evan was at least worthy of the Top 10. The judges just knew how fanatical his fanbase was, so they began an EXTREMELY early depimping process. He didn't get enough credit for a couple of early routines, and his fantastic routines Week 1 and Week 3 were among the Top 10-15 of the season.

Also, DialIdol has them ranked like so:

Brandon
Jeanine
Kayla
Evan

DI is usually accurate on the finales, but they've been off constantly with Dance, so anything is possible. Most likely though, Jeanine & Brandon will be the Final 2, and I'm gonna now predict that Brandon will win, but hope it's Jeanine still.

The streak of luck was bound to end sometime though, haha. I've been TOO lucky lately, what with my favorites winning all over the place: Kris Allen on AI8, Anna from the The Fashion Show, etc....Hopefully we'll get more amazing females next season, because it still annoys me that Sabra is the only female winner to date.
