Abigail Spencer? Do they name characters after people who failed the audition? (Really, it happened to a friend of my brother, hearing his own distinctive name in a show he didn't get hired for).

OK, maybe I've seen too many ballet recitals, but those dancers look way too heavy for pros. Ballet girls are really skinny (and generally boob-less).

ETA: come to think of it, it's probably because the guest star would really look out of place as a prima ballerina if they picked the right body type for the rest.

Well, you can also throw a dart out of a window in LA and hit somebody with at least some basic ballet/dance training, so I imagine casting those extras was a whole lot easier than getting an actual ballet company.

Particularly for just one scene. Still, my ballet acquaintances would probably laugh at that casting (and 3 seconds of choreography).

But, yeah, the main plot in that episode was less interesting than the B-plot (and now we know how Joan Watson got her last name, or was that mentioned before?). Also, am I the only one who noticed Jonny Lee Miller's voice has been odd for the past 2 episodes. Maybe he's had a cold or something.
