On SYTYCD, the top 8 performed, and performed, and performed: Five dances each, in solos, duos, and groups. We're tired just watching. Mentioned: To the Pointe with Kristyn Burtt (https://www.podcastone.com/To-The-Pointe-with-Kristyn-Burtt) and The Dance Room (https://www.podcastone.com/the-dance-room), both podcasts where you can hear from the eliminated contestants each week. On our West Wing Watch, "The Al Smith Dinner" was a refreshing return to a rock-solid, political-procedural episode of the show. We also enjoyed the returns of Donna Moss and Will Bailey. Next week, we'll skip West Wing and discuss Evvie Drake Starts Over (https://amzn.to/2Hnkyii), the new novel from our podcast inspiration Linda Holmes (http://www.thisislindaholmes.com/).
