Dancelife continues ... but where's the dancing?

All right I am all for Jersey having a great first date with Kenny's roommate Nick, and could not be more interested in whether or not Kenny and his Pussycat Doll-girlfriend Ashley will survive their long distance relationship, but the dance element in this week's "Dancelife" was completely lacking.

The only scenes featuring dance were at the beginning during a master class at Millennium studio and Kenny's "venting" solo, obviously pre-choreographed, but amazingly choreographed at that.


Basically these dance kids are having a slow week in LA with a Gap-commercial watching party for Blake and Staci, and a cookout/pool party at Kenny's apartment building (which by the way strikes me as odd that none of the neighbors cared about the noise or beer pong in the middle of the day).

I think that just one more scene of intense dancing would have added a lot to the show. After all it is called "Dancelife" not "Love lives of dancers."

I did get up and try to learn the routine during the master class and picked up a few steps, but learning a dance in a mirror image is not that easy. At all.

Until next week, which centers around Staci's deadline to make a video for her music (apparently singing is her ultimate goal, not dance) I can only go to the MTV "Dancelife" site to learn some choreography from Kenny to satisfy my dance addiction.

Now it's time to rest these tired bones and get ready for some dancing of my own tomorrow: teaching a jazz class, running my dance piece rehearsal and attending another dance piece rehearsal.
