That reminds me, Project Runway returns (finally) next Wednesday. I hope you're getting ready by checking in with our friends at Blogging Project Runway.

Weekend Marathon Discussion Thread

It's been more than a year since most have seen season 2. Now that we're older and wiser (we hope), what did you notice this time around? Should someone else have made it into the top 20? How great is Clair Callaway? Did Jason get cheated? How was it to see Mary's choreography again? And Brian Friedman's? Did Ivan last longer than he should have? Who impressed you more or less than you remembered?

Newest comments will appear at the top.

SYTYCD News Roundup

Your weekend will belong to Benji, Travis, Donyelle, Heidi, Ivan, Allison, Ryan and the rest. MTV has a season 2 marathon scheduled beginning Friday night. We'll have an open discussion thread, so stop by and share your observations. Thanks to Loralyn for the tip.

The Daily Press has 3 mini-reviews from Tuesday night's show in Hampton, Va. Here's one:

Although my favorite dancer, Lacey Schwimmer, couldn't dance because of a knee injury, I thoroughly enjoyed the energy of the show and the enthusiastic crowd. Ballroom dancer Anya Garnis and contemporary dancer Shawna Noland did a good job of filling in for Lacey during some of my favorite dances -- the samba with local Danny Tidwell, who dominated the stage with his presence throughout the show, and a moving contemporary piece with Kameron Bink. I watched the show all season and it was interesting to see how the emotion of the choreography played to a live audience -- at times the solos seemed lacking, but during the group numbers the show came alive. -- Nicole Paitsel, Daily Press

Stephen Boss, aka tWitch, was the last cut in this season's Las Vegas audition round. Here's an excerpt from Amy Weaver's story about tWitch's return home to teach hiphop dance:

Boss’ outfit - a black cap tilted sideways, a green Superman T-shirt, long red and black basketball shorts hanging low, bright yellow tube socks, and green Nike hightops - said he came to dance hip-hop and nothing else. No tutus today. With or without the persona, the intensity he has for teaching his style radiated from him for 90 straight minutes.

His musical choice, a number written by Robson, rattled the floor boards, but so did one stomp of his foot. Students were captivated by every move he made.

It was carefree but precise, commanding but rebellious, arrogant but confident. Miss a beat, miss a lot, so try to keep up.

Video From Last Year's Tour

Myspacer Did He Just Go Crazy and Fall Asleep has several videos posted from last season's tour. They're decent amateur quality but watchable, and unlike the show, the camera stays in one place and doesn't cut away just when things get interesting.
