Bristol Palin and DWTS results

[Magic Mom]

TV show.....just a TV show. No one's career or livelihood or civil rights are on the line.

This show has lost ALL credibility. They will need to rethink the rules for next season. Maybe just leave it up to the judges. I don't even think Bristol deserved the Top 10.

It's a show based on votes, not talent. The best candidate does not always win when the results are based on votes.

Blah. I couldn't believe Brandy got voted off but I'm sort of glad because she annoyed me. I stopped watching after Audrina got voted off... I'm not a Hills fan but she was a beautiful dancer and I was mad that she was voted off and Bristol wasn't. I'm glad Kyle and Jennifer are still there, but if I were Bristol I would feel like I was just a pity vote and wouldn't want to be there in the Final 3, that's for sure.

Seriously why do care? Its a tv show. I have never watched it, but why get so worked up over a TV show, and why insult a girl you don't know. May be you can explain to me why people get so worked up over reality tv shows with all the problems in the world. I just don't get it.

I agree. I just can't see myself getting worked up over a reality show. It's simply entertainment, not life altering.

I do feel a little sorry for Bristol. Some people seem to think that it is unfair because they feel she is not as accomplished as the other dancers. However, it also can be considered unfair that she has to compete with people that are professional entertainers and have performing experience. I like all the dancers, but realize that Bristol has come further than the others still remaining since she started with no stage experience. Perhaps voters are taking that into consideration.

I will watch the final show Monday and don't care who wins. I think they are all deserving in their own way.

And that was excactly my point

That based on what is transpiring this season they need to change it up in the future and have it based on talent. This season has turned into a bad joke.

Did you see Brandy and Maks on Jimmy Kimmel last night? I thought Brandy was a little forward with where she placed her hand on Maks through the whole interview.

WELL it is totally based on skill
You have the fan vote that weighs into it so if you have a following like the Palin's do you are going to have alot of people call for you.
I am still rootting for Jennifer Grey I hope she wins

Same reason people get worked up about other people's opinons on a message board. Personal opinion.

It is easy to see why people are upset with Bristol moving on in the show. She's not any good.

As for the having opinions on someone we don't know... she puts herself out there as a personality - her choice to do this - henceforth is willing putting herself in a position to be judged, just as any person who joins a discussion board and makes comments on a thread or post.

I am outraged that Bristol is in the finals. She does not deserve to be there. Yes she has improved but at the expense of better dancers. Just imagine how good Audrina would be by now. She should have been gone in week 4. I am also disappointed in the judges, she never once got the "it's week six you really need to step it up" speech. I think they were way too nice to her.

She is so naive that she really thinks people are voting for her because she is so "normal". I am so afraid that she will win, she could probably fall flat on her face and still win. I also don't care for Mark Ballas this season. He is way to touchy, feely with his partners.

I wonder if the show is doing this just to keep viewers? Last year after the horrible Kate was finally gone the ratings dropped, maybe they are just keeping Bristol for the ratings.

My thoughts exactly.

I don't always vote for the best dancer, I sometimes vote for the most improved.

I think sometimes the best dancer have pervious dance experience.

 

[HonnyDipp]

to me, the most improved dancer this season is Kyle. Not to mention, he's lost a ton of weight this season.

Well, at the very least, Bristol & the Situation are parlaying their stint on DWTS into other venues. Although, after watching this PSA that they filmed, I'm scratching my head as to why I would take their advice on the topic of abstinence.

Thanks for ruining the show for me. I taped it for my daughter and I because we had to go out last night, now there's no sense watching it. Maybe you should change the title to avoid ruining it for many others.

 

[mansionterror]

I was not a big fan of Brandy but was suprised to see her go over Bristol. I will be happy if Jennifer or Kyle wins although Jennifer is my favorite. She looks amazing at 50 years old.

 

[grumpeeduck]

Yes! Yay, Bristol!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, do you not watch the news or listen to the radio? Are you calling them and telling them how upset you are that they mentioned the outcome on their TV show or radio program?
Yes, it's all my fault that I ruined it for you.

MAybe you should avoid messageboards until you've watched your recording?
And TV, newspapers, radios, people....

I'm sure I'm in the minority but I really don't think that celebs who perform (dancing, gymnastics, anything choreographed) should be participating. Um, we KNOW they can perform, it's what they do for a living. DUH! For instance the woman from PussyCat Dolls, they do music videos that she has to learn steps and practice long hours for all the time. How is DWTS different?

I agree with the poster that stated anyone with dancing experience should not be there. Agreed, Jennifer is really good, but duh!, she was really good in Dirty Dancing too!! As far as Bristol goes, I do think she is what the show should be about, someone that has absolutely no experience, but with that said, she is not very good and should not win. However, we all know that since anybody can vote, many fans of her mother are voting for her just because of who she is. My vote goes to Kyle, what a personality and he truly has pulled it off. I love to see him dance. He is so light on his feet and can really move! Although he is well known, it wasn't for starring in a movie with a dancing part. Jennifer will probably win, but I hope it's Kyle.

It's a show based on votes, not talent. The best candidate does not always win when the results are based on votes.

I agree with all of these. Maybe the voting should be changed to ONE vote per phone line/online. Even so, you'll still have the popularity vs talent vote to deal with. I'd love to see them eliminate the phone/online voting and just leave it up to the judges, but maybe that would change the show too much?

I will watch the final show Monday and don't care who wins. I think they are all deserving in their own way.

This is true - Jennifer deserves to be in the finals because yes, she was a dancer in her younger days, but she's 50 now, with all kinds of injury issues. I'm 51 and I know what my body isn't capable of any more, and I haven't had all the injuries she has!

Kyle has acting experience, but not dancing. I think he's the most improved over the course of the show and deserves to be in the finals, and maybe to even win the whole thing.

Bristol should have been gone early on (definitely after that monkey suit dance!) based on her dancing, but she's really improved the last 2 weeks. That said, I don't think she deserves to win - the winner should be either Kyle or Jennifer.

As for Brandy.....I don't know. To me, there was always something with her facial expressions that bothered me, and Monday night she just didn't seem to be "there". I can't explain it, she just seemed "off" to me.
