He comes out looking like an IT guy, with khakis, a button-down dress shirt and a somber expression. The whole time he dances he looks pretty serious and does a sort of Bollywood thing. I would love to see him wasted at a club. Now THAT'S entertainment.
He strikes me as kinda silly though. Maybe I just don't get the Bollywood thing, but come on folks. He's lip synching and gyrating his hips like THIS.
"ShWING!"
He even loses his beat a bit, but whatev's. Apparently the audience adores him. Piers says, "You were one of the most extraordinary dancers I've ever seen in my life." What? Are you shitting me? Oh God. The judges give it a unanimous thumbs up and I am left going "Wha-wha-whaaaat?"
What did you think about this episode? Was anybody else grossly disappointed by Hoff's weak attempt at drama? See you on the boards!

Okay, I didn't even get past reading the first page before I HAD to start writing my comment. First off, thank you for putting up your recap so fast, O. Snapp, second, you had me choking on my slushy with your comments about Sideswipe, and especially the screen grab of Sharon. Dick arrow is my new favorite phrase.
Okay, now that I've read the rest of the recap, I have to say that you and Flipit are my favorite "new school" recappers.
Yeah, what a lame attempt at drama from the Hoff. He needs to drink more. This episode reeked of producer interference. It's the only explanation for why some good or decent performers get turned down, like the tiny krunk dancer kids, and why boring or weird acts go through, like Boy Shakira and Pakistani Pedro. Whatever, it's not like American Idol where the winner becomes some huge star. I'm not even sure who won last year. Some ugly girl, right?

Another excellent recap. I had WTF thoughts through most of the show too. Boy Shakira? Please.

I recorded this, and I'm pretty sure that during the dummy/midget act that we saw one camera angle in which a dummy was in there, and then the view switched to another camera and a person was in there. Really makes me wonder what happened.

I grew tired of saying and thinking "WTF?" Boy Shakira was the pits and HE got through? And I figured Pakistani Pedro was in for some serious Brit whoop-ass from Piers, but he was "one of the most amazing dancers he's ever seen"? Well, blow me down! Lucy, he's got some 'splainin' to do!
The Hoff. What can I say? I was just thinking his wife must be some serious beer-swilling, pot-smoking, pussy giving trailer trash if HE got custody of their kids. His lame attempt at the spotlight matched his worst performance at "Baywatch", albeit without the aid of gorgeous ta-tas. On the other hand, I love Sharon's "Nanny" performance. She's a hoot. She should invite Ozzie to be a guest judge some night. Now, that would be some show.
O. Snapp, I love your writing style. Like the guy above, I love "Dick Arrow". Sounds like some comic-book nerdy villain.
