In watching the marathon, Jesus' elimination was the WORST, by far. His solo was spectacular, fun and just all kinds of good. It was total misfortune that put him up against Danny, who was a superior dancer, and Neil, who had the charisma and potential to go far (like he did). I'm not sure that Jesus should have survived against those two, but he definitely deserved to last longer than the Top 16.
I disliked Neil when originally watching, mostly by association with Lauren, but I like him a bit more on the rewatch. I definitely see the growth throughout the competition, and think he stepped his game up and peaked at all the right points to earn him in that finale spot.
