Okay so here's my review of the 2006 show:
2005's was way, way better. THIS year they used way too much mainstream music like Kelis and Justin. But when I watch a show I want to be so perplexed by their music selection that I'll want to find out who did that song, where I can download it, yadda yadda.
I agree that starting the show with Justin's "Sexy Back" was a great route to go. While I HAVE read short news blurbs about what the theme was supposed to be, I saw no overlaying theme last night. There were the aces and spades, cool. There were the flight attendendants etc, cool. There was the Highland Romance, cool. There were the sports and school-related, cool. There was the winter wonderland, cool. None of it fit together as perfectly as 2005's did: Candy land, wonderland, toys and babes, etc. Overall, this year they had my dream line up of models sans Inguna and Isabeli. Considering how many more famous people attended this year than years past(Paris, Nicole, etc) you'd think the show itself would have been more engaging. I was waiting for something good to happen or for the them to really click but it never did. Now I even regret taping it!
Woo mouthful but I hope some of you agree with me on this. 2005>2006.
