LAST EDITED ON 01-28-07 AT 10:00 PM (EST)Eh...It wasn't bad. I ended up tuning out for most of the second half. Two hours felt really stretched out to me, which was odd, since there were 14 contestents. I'll re-watch tomorrow on TiVo to see what I missed. I did get a kick out of the first "Sandy" that performed (the one in the pink & black striped boots.) Did anyone besides me notice her tripping and missing a line of the song as a result. She played it off well, but I'm surprised none of the judges called her on it. If I was pumping millions of dollars into a show, I wouldn't want my lead actress stumbling around the stage. ETA: The whole "twist" in bringing back two contestants. I liked the guy they brought back, but I didn't think the girl was that good. Luna's Eclipses

My favorites shone for the most part in this episode, and it was nice to see how far they all have really come and really improved.For Danny my front runner is Chad Doreck. He has a strong voice and nice moves and I think he could sell the part. Next is Derek (the John Stamos look alike), he also hit his number and made me have goosebumps. Third and coming on strong is Max, he always has had the nice voice, but last night he stepped up his strut and acting ability. The way he had his hair his ears didn't stick out as bad as normal, so I'd say he has a shot. One Danny that I really don't like that much but I'm sure America loves, is Austin. He looks like Harry Connick Jr to me and is too pretty, IMO. For Sandy my front runner is Ashley Spencer. She has the looks- is the spitting image of ONJ, the moves and a great range of voice. Next is Kate, she too was dynamic and her voice is excellent. As a dark horse and I can't remember her first name, is Monteleone. She needs to show me more of a sultry Sandy though, she does have the pure Sandy down. Allie is cute as a button, wore great clothes, but she will have to turn it up because the competition is stiff. I didn't like that they brought the two back and then they both bombed and were simply awful, my ears rebelled! I also didn't think Olivia added much as a judge. She was too nice to everyone and didn't give any real feedback. David gave good advice and I agreed with his assesments. Overall, the show is getting better, but I agree they could have cut out alot of it and made the show 90 minutes.

I think bringing back those 2 showed why they were cut in the first place. So maybe it was smart. The judges were showing the audience why they were cut. Both of them were off key and it was embarressing.DH has already picked the very first guy and the very last girl. Which was the pick of the first judge they asked. I agreed with the judges' picks. My fave 3 guys were the ones they picked. All the other guys just didn't fit to me. And besides Ashley I have trouble telling the females apart. I just don't like Max as Danny. I don't believe him as the leader of the gang. Yes, he can sing. But he isn't Danny. I would like to see them sing songs from Grease instead of other songs. Just because they can sing another song well, doesn't mean they can sing the Grease songs right. I think it would be easier to judge who is right if they had them singing the songs they will have to sing if they win.

I thought that too about the songs...but I guess you'd have so many repeats it would get old pretty fast (although not for me I've been singing these songs since 1977!!)...maybe later when there are less contestants; until then you get the group nos.I really liked Max the best. He can really act/sing/strut, etc...I understand about the look, but I think he looks better now and they can work on it. If he does get booted, they should hire him as a TBird. Did you hear the producer say that they are now hiring the other cast? I wonder if they have to tell the actors they hire to "tone it down" bc they are actually better than any of the people on the show? The other ones I like for Danny are Chad and Austin. I know Austin is a pretty boy (did you see how he blossomed...OMH) but I think he is one of the best dancers. I really didn't like the other ones, Derek was ok. I really liked Matt...HE LOOKS THE MOST LIKE A DANNY...but OMH some of those notes. It seemed the girls really like Chad and surprisingly, Max (I loved his little taped segment about getting fired, waking up at 1:18 pm etc.) For Sandy..I'm really torn. Ashley A. should not have been brought back. I did like Ashley S. and I think she may win..but last night her performance was off for me and I really don't like when someone is "ordained" the winner. I actually think Laura in the yellow shorts Sandy from Minnesota was the best Sandy last nite. I sort of liked the Church Sandy too...she has a voting block doesn't she? We'll see. Prediction for boots in 2 weeks--SuperBowl next week they are running repeats: Ashley A. and either Matt (I wish he could sing) or the boy band singer. Did anyone vote...I didn't I was half watching and didn't see any of the nos. What about internet..only one vote?

Playing catch up here since I've never seen the movie...My friend already think i am strange since I guess the movie was a big hit back when it came out. I was in my late 20's then. I know it took three parts, singing, dancing, and acting to make it to the final 12 (I know there are 14 but the two they brought back are thre as filler and probally will go first) so my question is this:
Will every week be just singing or will we see them daning and or acting? To the poster who mentioned about one of the Sandy's tripping...she actually tripped twice: Once when her with her ankle and another when it looked like she slipped. And I also was suprised that the judges never mentioned that either since both times it was so obvious. No favs yet for either Sandy and or Danny. There was actually one who didn't make it that I liked for Danny but oh well, goes to show what I know. ehehehehh

LAST EDITED ON 02-05-07 AT 09:22 AM (EST)Ashley Spencer looks just like Lindsay Lohan when she was blonde. I can't seem to get past that when looking at her, so it negatively affects my opinion of her. I like the guy who sang "Walking in Memphis", but would also like them to sing Grease songs so I can get a feel for how good they'd be in the roles. djandy

I agree with everything that KObrien_fan said. I thought Chad was the best Danny and Ashly was the best Sandy. Austin is a interesting contestant. While he looks good and obviously has more experience. He has a mediocre voice and his soft boyish looks kind of hurt him as the character of Danny. He just looks and sounds too boyish to be the leader of a tough Chicago gang.
