AfterBuzz TV SYTYCD: Spencer Liff

What a show! I think I learned more about SYTYCD dance in this hour than in the last two seasons of covering this show. Spencer Liff gave us a real insider's look at the pressures the choreographers and the contestants are under. It's a time crunch each and every week. Doesn't it make you admire the work everyone puts in even more?

I hope you all take note of Spencer's career because you are going to hear his name a lot outside of SYTYCD. It's really exciting to see choreographer's emerge from this show. It also makes me excited to have Lindsay Nelko on as a guest on Aug. 14. We will get the opportunity to talk to someone who is just breaking out.

I have also updated our guest list for August, it's a great line-up this month and I like the variety that we have.

Finally, it was definitely time for Alexis and Curtis to exit, but I think this is going to be a great stepping stone for them. They both said they wanted to head to New York to Disney's Newsies. I hope to see them on the Great White Way soon.

SYTYCD on AfterBuzz TV : Mollee Gray

I love Mollee Gray! She's so sweet and I think she gave us the best insight on the choreographers and how they work in the studio. Mollee talked quite a bit about Travis Wall and Dee Caspary's process in the studio. It was fascinating to hear more from that side of SYTYCD.

The one topic that keeps coming up is why Alexis is getting pushed through each week. I'm not sure I understand why or how. Her fans are clearly supportive, but we all seem a bit baffled by it. I have to say that I love this season because there are so many good contenders. While we all may think Fikshun and Amy are going to win, you can't count out Aaron, Jasmine, Paul or Makenzie at this juncture.

Finally, Carly Rae Jepsen was one of the worst judges ever on the show. She joins the list with Zooey Deschanel for me. I polled a few of you on Twitter and several of you also mentioned Megan Mullally, Carmen Electra, Katie Holmes and Rob Marshall as your least favorite guest judges. Did we miss anyone? Let me know in the comments below.

P.S. If you came here to find out if Mollee is dating Kent Boyd, the answer is "no." They are great friends, but they are not dating. I hope that clears up any confusion.

AfterBuzz TV SYTYCD: First Eliminated Contestants Preview

Who do you think will be the first two to go home this week on SYTYCD? There were a few that struggled including Nico and Alexis with Christopher Scott's hip hop routine. I personally was not a fan of Malece's work last week, but I know she can give more if she sticks around.

My predictions to go home this week?
Girls: Alexis (I have really enjoyed her tap routines, but I don't think she is dynamic enough to stick around.)
Boys: Jade (While I think he has more to give, I don't think Nico is going to be penalized for a lousy routine last week. He has a lot of girls who think he is really cute. They are going to push him through.)

Also, we have guests lined up for most of July for AfterBuzz TV.  Get excited because it's going to be a hot show all summer long! (To see a sneak peek of us upcoming guests, click here.)

This week's guest is a returnee from last season. We are so happy to have him back. It's Season 7's Alex Wong! He probably has one of the most frustrating SYTYCD stories ever with being injured at the worst time. However, he's been an All-Star and it's always a treat to see him dance.

If you have questions for Alex, please place them in the comments below. (and let me know who you think is going home tomorrow!)

Watch us LIVE on Wednesday at 9pm on AfterBuzz TV here.
