SYTYCD: The field is narrowed; Who made it to the finale?

I know this is a bit late, but better late than never. I will not critique all of the performances from the So You Think You Can Dance semifinals, but instead will provide a few thoughts.

- Is it only me, or does Kathryn seem like she has no confidence in herself? Honestly, I don't think she should have gotten as far as she has, to me she always looks like she is struggling behind her partners, but especially in the packages this week she is making herself look like the underdog.
- I am so sad Ashleigh did not get to dance this week. She is such a wonderful dancer I honestly think the dances would have been better and more entertaining if she had performed. Similarly, I was almost a little shocked at how bad the "assistants" were - they were dancing in a style they should have mastered! - and I think Ashleigh would have been awesome in both routines.
- And, while we are on this topic, poor Russell was forced to perform with fill-ins instead of his real partner twice this season. Maybe he's the one with the bad luck.
- My eyes filled up a little when Ryan pleading with America to vote for Ashleigh even if that meant he had to give up votes and was sent home instead.
- Mollee and Jakob were the stand outs for me this week. Both of their routines, but especially their Broadway performance, were memorable and among some of the best from the entire season.

In the end, Legacy and Mollee were sent home. Honestly, I was a bit shocked. If it had ended my way, Russell and Kathryn would have left. Either way, I think the winner will be either Ashleigh, Jakob or Ellenore. I can't see any of the other three receiving enough votes. What do you think? Who do you think should win?
