The season finale of Drop Dead Diva gave us one cliff hanger we were expecting, and another that I did not see coming. The unexpected twist will make for a very interesting season five.
It was great to see Fred again. I’ve missed Fred. But then, how can you not miss someone who’s name is Fred? That name just evokes “missing” when he (or she) goes away.
The two cases in the season finale were interesting ones. One was case was about a woman who has a brain tumor, and because of the location of the tumor in the brain, the woman’s IQ has gone up significantly. However, it also means she has only a few months to live if it is not removed. Her husband, of course, wants her to have the tumor removed, but she is reticent because she likes being smart. Jane (Deb) can understand where the woman is coming from, because Deb was never known for her intelligence until she got Jane’s body and her high IQ.
The other case is a country singer who is on trial for causing one of her fans to act out the lyrics of one of her songs and cut the brakes on her ex-boyfriends car, which led to him being injured in a car accident. It's very topical, with so many singers bashing their exes in their songs, and so many songs about retribution. How responsble would a singer be if someone decided to do exactly what one of their songs say. Would a case like that hold up in court? Who knows.
The cases weren’t the big stories of the episode. Jane and Owen were getting married. Jane (Deb) was finally really moving on from Grayson. The big question was, how did Grayson feel about Jane? We find out, but it's not "as easy as..."
I'm excited for season 5. How long do I have to wait?

So You Think You Can Dance: Who I Think Should Win
After Will was voted off a few weeks ago, I didn’t really care which of the male dancers won So You Think You Can Dance. I really wanted Will to win.
After the last episode, I’ve changed my mind about not caring. I really want Chehon to win. Now, I like Cyrus. I think he’s grown a great deal during his time on the show, but he isn’t near the dancer that Chehon is. He is still weak and sloppy in most of the genres that he has performed in. Cyrus should have been let go by the judges long before now. I think the winner should be the better dancer, not the one who’s more personable.

After watching Chehon’s solos the last few weeks, I am blown away by his talent. That man can jump! Beautifully. He is magnificent.
I also can’t believe that Nigel said that he wouldn’t be voting for Cyrus, right to his face, and in front of millions of viewers. I think it was a crappy thing for him to say. Whether he said it because he wants people to vote for Cyrus in sympathy, or he realizes that the judges have really coddled Cyrus this season and he’s trying to back-peddle and tell the viewers they should vote for the better dancer, I’m sure no one but Nigel will know. However, I don’t think he should have said it.
Now, to the girls. Should Eliana win or Tiffany? I definitely think Eliana should win. And I think she will. This win will definitely go to the more talented dancer. Both Eliana and Tiffany have sweet personalities, so I don’t think personality will play a factor. Tiffany is a very strong dancer, and some of my favorite routines have been by her. However, Eliana is strong in every genre. And even though she was paired with Cyrus at the beginning of the competition and couldn’t really showcase all she could do then, her talent shone through and she overshadowed Cyrus in all of her dances.
We’ll find out tomorrow which dancers will win. I know it’s just a reality TV show, but I hope I won't be disappointed.
