POLL: Who Was Your Favorite Couple? Who's Going Home?

Predicting who will be going home on So You Think You Can Dance requires a multi-tiered thought process. First you've got to guess which three couples will have received the least amount of votes for America. Then you have to imagine how the dancers from those three couples will fare individually. Finally, you've got to put yourself into the minds of Nigel, Mary (eek!) and Dan Karaty to figure out who's gonna get the boot.

Yeah, not so simple.

But here goes...

Bottom 3 Couples

Raven and Jamie
Performing first did them absolutely no favors, especially considering their performance wasn't even that strong. A shoo-in for the Bottom 3.

Susie and Marquis
The waltz is a killer first dance, and unfortunately these two didn't kill it. Also a shoo-in.

William and Jessica
Courtney/Gev and Kourtni/Matt probably performed worse, but this boring Tango from two contestants who have not received much screen time may prove to be deadly.

Eliminated Boy: Marquis
Since William is Debbie Allen's protege, I'm guessing he's going to have a pretty solid solo up his sleeve, so he should live to see another week. Jamie's performance was weaker than Marquis' last night, but he's more likely to come out with a spirited swing-dancin' solo, so I'm thinking Marquis, one of many contemporary dancers in the competition, will be the first to go.

Eliminated Girl: Susie
If it does, in fact, come down to Susie, Raven or Jessica, any of the three could go home and I wouldn't be surprised. Susie, however, is the least substantial of the dancers to me -- I find her fake and annoying to watch. Perhaps it's wishful thinking, but I'm guessing the judges will agree.

So there it is -- I think Susie and Marquis will be the first two dancers eliminated this season.

Agree? Disagree? Take the poll!
