"So You Think You Can Dance " Top 6 Vie For Final Prize!

Tonight's episode of "So You Think You Can Dance" on FOX network will bring the 6 remaining finalist together to compete. Each female dancer will be paired up with each male dancer before the night is through. This is the Finale, so America's voting is more important than ever.

Katherine and Ryan performed a fantastic Salsa. It had an African theme and music that was very interesting as well. Ryan's final lift/throw of Katherine onto his back was something I've never seen before. They did it very well. It was a great finish to a superb routine. Katherine-10 Ryan-10

Ellenore and Jakob are dancing a Jazz routine. No body can jump like Jakob. Choreographers just can't help but throw a few leaps in each of his routines. I do not mind, but that just left Ellenore with the easier choreography. What Ellenore did, she did well, but it was clear that the choreographers knew they could do more with Jakob. Ellenore-8 Jakob-10

Ashleigh and Russell are performing a lyrical routine. They both clearly did a great job, but Russell was hands down better at expressing true emotion throughout the routine. He also performed harder choreography than she did. She looked beautiful and performed her choreography well, but Russell stole the show. Russell-10 Ashleigh-9

Ellenore and Ryan are performing a Jazz routine. This number has a lot of robotic movement that must be performed with exactness. They're both doing a very good job, but Ellenore is slightly better than Ryan. There are a lot of hard lifts though that require Ryan's strength, and he is extremely strong. Ellenore-10 Ryan-9

Ashleigh and Jacob are performing a Foxtrot. I think both dancers did a respectable job on this number, but Ashleigh stole the show. That's not an easy thing to do, when you're dancing with Jakob. They could have gotten a little more into the old time jazz feel of the music in their movement, but overall they did a good job. Ashleigh-10 Jakob-9

Ellenore and Russell are performing a Paso Doble. Neither dancer has done ballromm, so this should be extremely hard. You wouldn't know it watching them. They have all the drama and stregnth of movement you would expect. Russell is an extremey strong young man, so he can lift with the best of them. Ellenore looks beautiful in anything she does, and this was no different. I loved this number. Ellenore-10 Russell-10

Katherine and Jakob are dancing a contemporary number. I love this number and I love these two dancing together. Jakob is such a technician and a great emotional dancer. These guys got a standing ovation even from the judges. This was a great number and both dancers performed it perfectly. Katherine-10 Jakob-10

Ashleigh and Ryan, the first husband and wife to both make into the Top 20 (let alone the Finale) are dancing a contemporary routine together. They are Latin ballroom dancers so this will be foreign for both of them. You can see how well they work with each other. They're use to dancing together even though they're dancing a dance style that is out of their comfort zone. This is a beautiful routine performed by two dancers who were crying at the end with all of us who watched them. Not only did they have good chemistry, you could feel the love and respect they have for each other. No matter the results of this contest, I doubt these two will feel anything but successful. Ashleigh-10 Ryan-10

Katherine and Russell are dancing a Hip Hop routine. This was a hard hitting, physical routine. They both performed this routine extremely well. The competitive spirit tonight has been amazing. Katherine-10 Russell-10
