So You Think You Can Dance 4: Round of Sixteen Eliminations

by Chandra on June 29th, 2008

So long, Chelsea Traille and Chris Jarosz!

June 26th brought the third round of eliminations on So You Think You Can Dance, which focused on the following Bottom Three couples:

1. Chelsea Traille and Thayne Jasperson because, once again, the judges complained mightily about their routine, a Quickstep number that was very enjoyable to watch and nowhere near as awful as the judges tried to make it seem
2. Comfort Fedoke and Chris Jarosz because ditto
3. Kourtni Lind and Matt Dorame because the competition is getting tough and somebody had to be the third couple

This was probably the first time there weren’t two obvious candidates for elimination. That fact was really obvious when decision time arrived for the three female dancers and the judges offered no commentary or criticism; a name was announced, and that was it.

As much as I’d like to have seen Chelsea, in particular, hang around for longer, I don’t fault the judges for their decisions. However, I do think Nigel Lythgoe suffered from momentary insanity when he told Matt his solo was brilliant, which it was not.

All of the dancers’ performances are after the jump, so you can see for yourself.
