Just to clear the air: Millard North and Millard West tied in finals, and West fairly won the tie breaker. It wasn't a coin flip, or vocal score, it was simply that they had higher overall placements in finals even though the average was the same just wanted to end some rumors about the judging. It was all fair congrats to all the groups, you were all amazing! Good luck the rest of your seasons!
I just wanted to take the time to appreciate Mitchell's entire show from top to bottom; I thought everything from the costuming to the show's concept of "humanity" created a very relevant and poignant message for the audience. Probably one of my favorite shows I've seen in a very long time. Best of luck to them and to the rest of the incredible groups here for the rest of the season!!
