Official Dancing With the Stars: Spring 2016

[izzy]

What are we up on the number of times they've shown Ginger's husband? I'm just waiting for them to bring out her baby to get the "awww" vote in addition to the sympathy vote and the judges-are-being-paid-off vote.

 

[Kirby]

I wasn't a big fan of Paige and Mark's samba.

I liked Nyle and Peta's quick step.

Fred and Ginger, Val and Ginger are not. I didn't see any resemblance and a perfect 30? Geezzzzzzz!

 

[Kirby]

And what's all this love between Lara and Ginger? I heard a year or so ago that they were at odds with each other on GMA.

 

[mandy200587]

Umm wow

 

[marybet]

OMG! Nyles & Peta brought tears to my eyes!

 

[asta]

That was stunning! I agree - that was a work of art.

 

[Imzadi]

O.M.G! Nyle & Peta were fantastic. I'm all teary-eyed!

I hadn't heard the remade cover of The Sounds of Silence. I was prepared NOT to like it. But, it was incredibly raw, and sooo fit this dance. Peta should be applauded for that choreography.

 

[mandy200587]

That may be one of the best freestyles in history of the show

 

[mandy200587]

Dang it Mark you crying is making me cry

 

[scdak]

Man, 2 of the last 3 dances made me cry...........now I don't know who to vote for! I just know who I am not voting for

 

[Imzadi]

Dang it Mark you crying is making me cry

I think the Bullying issue is close to Mark's heart, too, as he mentors kids.

Agreed.

I was going to vote for Paige but Nyles' freestyle was so amazing. Of course if the fix is in we are probably voting for second place. Ginger's freestyle was "nice", Paige & Nyles' were some of the best we've ever seen.

Notice there were no big productions numbers tonight.........maybe because that's what won it last season?

 

[mandy200587]

and can I just say BC sounded amazing

 

[Kirby]

Nyle and Peta's freestyle was very powerful.

I liked Paige and Mark's also but Nyle's freestyle was my favorite.

I'm assuming that Paige and Mark also received all 10's. My tv cut to another show I'm taping and I missed the score.

Yep they got all tens. Still blows my mind that shows like this can never get timing right and always rush at the end. And they have all that time saved from not talking to nyle and pretending his interpreter doesn't exist.

 

[AustinTink]

Nyle's freestyle was so powerful. Of the three, he is the only one who had zero dance background coming in. Paige's was good also, but I just see all her training in every move. It doesn't sit well with me.

Fingers crossed that Nyle takes it all... if ABC allows it.

Yes, I haven't been paying all that much attention to everyone talking about her prior dance experience. She's a fighter, so I figured, she knows how to move her legs. But, she did two twirls/spins in the air and yep, you can tell she has DANCE training. Not fighting training.

It's like Patrick Swayzee, in the last dance in Dirty Dancing. He does this twirl up in the air and you KNOW he had major ballet training.

I was told, that for Broadway musical auditions, the FIRST and only thing they make dancers do is a double pirouette. From that one double pirouette, the choreographer can see everything they need to know about the dancer in terms of training, precision, experience & control. If the dancer makes that cut, then they make it to the next round where they learn some of the routine really quickly and dance that, stay, or get cut.

Fingers crossed that Nyle takes it all... if ABC allows it.

YES! No truer words probably written. Nyle for the (Should-be) Win.

OMG. I started crying like a little girl about half way through Nyle's dance (and there are tears in my eyes just writing about it). That is really the BEST freestyle I've sen on the show. Ever. Move over Drew Lachey, there's a new sheriff in town.

I always vote for my favorite freestyle in finals. My goodness, that was it.

But ... OMG ... Mark and Paige. That was certainly one of the TOP FIVE freestyles in the history of the show. Mark stripped it down. No other dancers. No props. No usual mark garbage. Just strong, beautiful Paige and Mark. What a performance, especially following Nyle. I had to give her some votes.

I would be happy with either Paige or Nyle now. I was not a Nyle fan until tonight but that dance gave me CHILLS. I love Paige. I love Nyle. I don't want to split my vote and give it to Ginger. Ugh.

Local (NYC) ABC News here just showed a promo advertising that they will be talking to Ginger about her injury that almost kept her from dancing tonight.

ABC's really milking her "injury."
