Dancing With the Stars - Fall 2025

[AustinTink]

Wow no double elimination. I whoohooood so loudly when Andy was safe!

 

[AustinTink]

Wow. Didn't see that one coming.

I did. He doesn’t have the voting powers behind him that the others do. I thought it would be a double elimination with him and Elaine. I think she will be next.

I thought Scott was going to be going home last week. I didn't have a problem with his dedication or talking about his marriage and them announcing they are having a baby, and that he wrote a song for his husband. But, unfortunately, there is about half the country who have a problem with all that and would want him gone from the show, so they wouldn't have to watch all that. This week's votes combined with last week may be what gave him the boot.

I thought it was going to be a double elimination too.

And Elaine does seem to be having problems of some kind, along with injuring herself. So, she may be next to go.

From Whitney’s reaction when they were declared safe I think she knows a lot of people are annoyed by her.

I almost want to give Jen votes also just to see if she can beat Whitney.

But aren’t those the ones boycotting Disney for being “too woke”?

But, the show is pushing for her to win.

I would say Jen may go if Elaine doesn't go. She always has a victim story. But, she probably gets Mormon votes as, the ones who vote for Whitney throw votes her way too.

Yeah, but they traditionally show up for the show to vote against them. When Bristol Palin was a contestant, she made it to the Finals, due to all of them showing up just to vote for her. Even though Brandi was a much better dancer than her and should have been in the Finals in her place.

The producers had to change voting for the Finals, giving the 3 judges an extra vote. The then host, Tom Bergeron had a chart to show us the math (that never made sense to me,) as to why the JUDGES will actually pick the winner and keep this a dancing show and not a political one.

Mark only comes back to dance if they guarantee him a win. I’d be shocked if he didn’t.

I forgot about the tally formulas back then.

BTW, the judges gave Bristol such low scores for all her dances during the Finals. She rightfully came in third.
