And we're off to San Francisco and get two-thirds of a new judges' panel with Tyce Diorio and Toni Redpath.

For the most part, SF fails to impress, and we say hello and goodbye to a former stripper, Tyce tells Toni one audition is "one big hot cup of vomit," and one contestant throws a temper tantrum or something after his audition. "I accomplished what I came here for," he says after the audition. Yes. And now that you've been on TV, what's your next goal?

Made it through:

Amber Williams impresses the judges with her self-described "ghetto-funky" style, but her hyper quirkiness is a little much ("I'm just like aaahhhhwaaaaaa"). Still her personality is a little refreshing in what has been a relatively dry process so far.

Danielle Ihle shows off a lot of pirouettes in her audition, but the judges think her emotional content is a little shaky. She brings it during the choreography round and advances to Vegas.

B-boy Jeffery McCann gets a very short critique, a resounding "heck year" from Tyce. He also has looks, charm and a great backstory: he lived on the street, hustled for a living until he found dance. The only potential problem is that he's 28, practically middle-aged in the dancing world.

Ryan Ramirez, who didn't get cast in season 7 auditioned again this year. I guess she improved, because the judges put her straight through to Vegas after a strong performance.

Honorable mentions: B-boy Timothy Joseph does enough tricks to move him on to the choreography round, but he injures his knee during rehearsal and can't continue because "it wouldn't be fair" to his partner. A good dancer with such a good heart, and it's a little difficult for us to watch him take his number off outside the theater.

Next week: Auditions continue in Salt Lake City and New York.
