I'm guessing we're going to witness the crashing and dying of AI this year. They should have worked out whatever differences there were Paula's contract, gotten rid of Degordo, and gone back to business as usual.
I love Ellen. She's awesome as a comedian. But after seeing her on SYTYCD, she is going to get REALLY old on AI. She just kept making the same tired jokes over and over. It was really obvious that she didn't have a clue what was going on and was trying to cover it up by getting laughs.
