Dancing With the Stars: Fall 2016

[AustinTink]

I think Laurie is going to win, but I liked James' Freestyle the best. Laurie's dance was fun & sweet and of course, being an athlete, she can dance. James' dance was really personal.

I liked James' dance far more as well. I think he has a chance of winning. Really hope he does.

It's down to the best three in my opinion.

I picked the final three the first week. I really believe the show is rigged and the judges actually decide.

Who to vote for?! I loved both James and Calvin...I'm afraid the men are going to split votes and Laurie will take it (not that she's not good but I feel the guys have improved much more)

It's down to the best three in my opinion.

I'm glad there is not drama this season, after the whole Ginger fiasco last season.

I picked the final three the first week.

I thought Jana might have been in the Finals the first week. James was under my radar for a few weeks, so I overlooked him.

I really believe the show is rigged and the judges actually decide.

We all KNOW it was rigged last season for Ginger to win or lat least make it into the Finals, which she did. I think the producers have been more careful this season to at least make it appear more fair. (Especially during a political climate where one of the presidential candidates was also shouting that he thought there might be rigged vote if he lost. I think ABC, this season, has tried to avoid that this season.)

However, they've been subtly pushing Laurie for the win. That's why I think she may win, even though James had a better Freestyle dance in my opinion, and also has been dancing consistently well.

I'm glad these are the final three. Laurie's freestyle was so fun, she's adorable. Calvin's was so entertaining, I love him and Lindsay. James was so powerful, got a little teary, well done.

LEN (the only REAL ballroom dancer and judge,) finally addressed Carrie Ann's obsession with lifts, saying that if the one INTENTIONALLY does a lift during a dance that shouldn't have a lift, then it should be penalized. If the foot just happened to come off the floor while being swung around, it shouldn't be considered a lift.

THANK YOU LEN!!!

YES finally.

All my votes go to Laurie. I don't believe it's rigged or they would have found a way to keep golden boy to the end.

 

[disney4us2002]

I didn't realize you can only vote by phone 5x. I knew online there was a limit. Interesting.

I loved both James and Laurie's freestyles. I gave all my votes to James because I like how he is really good and yet has no prior dance background. At least I don't think he does.

 

[Arielle22]

I gave all my votes to James. I didn't think Laurie's freestyle had enough dancing in it. She spent too much time moving from different playground pieces.

I think in the spirit of what the show is "supposed" to be, non-dancers learning something new then I really think James should win. I like Laurie very much, I smiled through her whole freestyle, it was joyful, but she has had some sort of dance training her whole life while James has never danced. I like Calvin too, I just think he is a step below the other two.

Should be fun tonight! This is always when I go, "Oh yeah, I forgot "X" was on this season"!

I hope James win, but I think it will be Laurie. They clearly have been setting her up for the win the entire season. But, James actually represents what this show is about. Someone with little or no dance training who actually becomes a good dancer.

I voted online and on FB with most of my votes going to Laurie and a couple to James. I'll be happy with either one.

 

[WebmasterMaryJo]

All my votes went to Laurie. I always read your comments the next day since I'm on the west coast. I almost have to watch the show again to see where your comments come from.

This is why I voted for James and Calvin. Both aren't athletes in the same way as Laurie, who had an advantage coming into the show, due to the kind of athlete she is. To me, they improved the most.
