Dancing With the Stars: Fall 2016

[Wishing on a star]

While it might not have have been absolute perfection, James was still incredible!

I love Terra, but she did not have her best night, and it showed in her scores.

I also love Laurie!!!! But. last night she was all 'gymnast', and not dancer.

We'll have to see who really pulls it out in the last weeks of the competition.
I hope the producers do not try to pull too much scripting and choosing THEIR winner.

I guess I was feeling super critical last night. James, Marilu, Laurie fell short of what I expected from them. But then I was impressed with Calvin and Tera. Because they both surprise me every week with how good they are, i think.

Is this the first time we have been shown Jame's girlfriend in the audience? She's very pretty, but they cameraman really liked her.

Ahhh last night was really good! I love James and Sharna, really want them to take it all the way! Also have a soft spot for Ryan and Cheryl they just seem to have so much fun. Thought Jana's dance was wayyy overhyped, not even close to the classy sexy we saw from Paige and Mark last season. Others kinda faded into the background for me, though am I the only one annoyed by Marliu? I just really find her to be too much sometimes but, everyone seems to love her. Also what's up with Laurie, is it Val or is she just not as good as we thought? Hoping Maureen goes next week, I don't think it's fun for her anymore. So excited for era's night next week!!!!

I gave all my votes to James because I want him to last to the end. I want to see James and Laurie in the finale, really don't have a choice for 3rd.

I want a Calvin and James finale

Mark made his Broadway debut last night! I saw lots of photos, but no reviews yet.

I'm not a big Marilu fan, either. She seems like she'd be very annoying IRL.

Thanks for posting the song list! Rly excited for James and Sharna's Jitterbug even though I have no idea what that is but, I love that song so I'm sure it will be great. Love the Charleston, Jive, and Quickstep so I'm excited to see those. Feel bad for Ryan though, don't see him doing well at the Rumba. As for teams, I'm more excited for Team Past but maybe that's cause I'm a huge James fangirl . But I always love Team Dances. Looking forward to next week!

Era night plus team dances!

If Entertainment Tonight hasn't aired in your area yet, watch or record it. They do a blurb on Mark Ballas as he premiered in The Jersey Boys, on Broadway as the lead, Frankie Valli. They show a clip of him singing. He actually seems like he is able to sing & do the character. Not that they hired him simply because he's famous & they need that publicity. The show is scheduled to close toward the end of Jan, after 11 years on Broadway.

I thought Val and Laurie were cute. I didn't care for Ryan & Cheryl this time. He seems very stiff.

 

[Imzadi]

I don't like Erin's dress. It is missing too much on the one side.

 

[mandy200587]

I wasn't impressed with most of the dances so far outside of Calvin. Maureen can't do rocker though at all

 

[Imzadi]

I wasn't impressed with most of the dances so far outside of Calvin.

Calvin always seems to be underrated, even though he does really well every week. I don't mean by the score, but by the way they don't rave over him the way they do with Laurie & James.

For example:

"Laurie you did GREAT!!!!!"

Julianne: "James, you are the best male dancer EVER on DWTS."

"Oh yeah, Calvin. You get all 9s. Next!"

 

[mandy200587]

Exactly!

 

[mandy200587]

Thank you Len

 

[Imzadi]

James & Sharna would have gotten all 10s if Sharna hadn't been hurt and fumbled a bit.

GOING HOME:












Maureen & Artem
