I couldn't believe they gave Chynna 7's, I think she couldn't believe she was given the gift of 7's. Then others who actually danced and knew their routine were given the same score.

I loved JR's dance. I didn't understand Carrie's critique. She didn't like the playfulness? Really? The Pink Panther isn't necessarily serious. I loved their dance.

Although I'm not a fan of Karina I really like JR and would love to see him win the whole thing. She has mellowed out this year and has done a very good job training JR and making the dance more about him than her. I have a feeling though that TPTB are pushing for Rikki and Derek to win.

The TPTB on the judges table and executives maybe, but if the issues that we had calling in for JR are any indication of the publics opitions, then it should be an interesting finish to the season. I got all the votes I could do for my phone in, my DD only got 4 in, DS and DH only got 3 in each. And that was in the last 10 minutes of voting. From about 10 til until 20 after it was busy signal after busy signal.

More to the point, Chynna was higher than either one. At least THEY remembered most of the steps. I like her and I like Tony, but they should not have received 7's.

I didn't see Chynna's dance. Cablebox was acting up. If she was awful and still got 7's it really brings home the point that in the end our voting is not as important as we think it is. Carriann, Len and Bruno will insure that Chynna is there to dance another week.

I finally got to watch the whole show. Chynna needs to go. She barely danced! Lucky for her Tony carried her mixed up butt through the whole thing. I loved everybody else (well, maybe not Carson and Chaz...) but Rikki, Rob, Nancy, David, JR, Hope...all great.

While I will agree, that by giving her the 7's it does show that they perfer to see Chynna return, our voting does count - IF DONE CORRECTLY.

It's a dead horse that has been beaten, but here ya go.

The voting for the best DANCER only works if that is who you vote for. Stop with the, "even though they really don't dance well, I threw a few votes towards X because I like him/her" voting thought processes and you just might see some of the really bad dancers go early and leave those with the abilities to stay.

Also, stop voting for the Pro's you like. Yes, I like Maks. But I don't vote for his star, just to keep his hottness in the show. Along the same lines, I don't like Anna or Karina. I've said it before, I would have a very hard time voting for a star that I like and think does a wonderful job, because he is dancing with them. But thankfully, I have not yet had that voting issue, with Anna. Karina, on the other hand, she is making it far easier to vote for her star. She is changing her ways - these last 2 season - and she has gotten partners that I like and they are putting out some of the best routines.

Done with the dead horse beating.

I felt bad for Chynna but agreed that she did not deserve 7's.

I love Carson as a personality, but his dance last night was sloppy. I loved his cha cha the 1st week and I loved his tango last week and I thought his technique in both those dances was better.

I admire Chaz for getting out there, but his dance wasn't good either. He always seems to be in pain with his knees, which I am sure doesn't help.

I am impressed with Nancy Grace....she is probably the oldest one out there and I think she's hanging in pretty well against the younger folks.

Hope is clunky...not graceful.

Ricki Lake is doing very well.

JR is doing very well.

Rob Kardashian gets better every week.

I think that's everyone....

 

[Jeafl]

Wow. Richard Simmons looked really bad. I have always liked him but I think it's time for him to hang up the sneakers.

I thought the same thing! He looked like he is unwell to me...

I would love for Derek to just once get someone who can't dance. He gets the star with the most talent every time. It's not fair to the other male pros.

Do you really think Rikki Lake has the most talent? GIVE ME A BREAK!! Derek is just that good of a teacher.. it's time y'all just accept it.

 

[lizanne]

IMO, Ricki Lake and JR should be the top two.

Next two to go should be Chaz and Carson. I like them both but they really can't dance

The rest I have in the middle of the pack. Rob and David are ok. Disappointed in Hope and Chynna. Nancy Grace does nothing for me.

I guess the thing you have to realize is that the voting public has many reasons for voting, probably most of which have nothing to do with who did the best dance.

 

[Imzadi]

SAFE:
Derek & Rikki
J.R. & Karina

 

[FINFAN]

Blech...RoboBrooke has GOT to go!

 

[Imzadi]

Did Julianne get work done on her face? She looks different.

 

[Disney Doll]

I know Carson isn't the best dancer but I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[3prettyprincesses]

You're right. I think it looks fuller? Her face was more defined before. Maybe it's been the time off from the show and stuff and she's not in the same shape?

Going Home:


Chynna & Tony

Chynna & Tony

Poor Tony, that guy just can't get a break

 

[Imzadi]

Poor Tony, that guy just can't get a break

I'm wondering if the judges giving her such high scores backfired. Maybe everyone went to vote for all the other people who SHOULD have scored higher.

 

[3prettyprincesses]

Ugh, I really liked Chyna and Tony! So ridiculous that worse dancers are staying. It really is a popularity contest, isn't it.

 

[asta]

I feel sorry for Tony. He seems like the nicest pro. I thought this year that he might have had a partner who could have gone to the end.

I also thought that Julianne looked like she could barely keep up with Derek. She was always such a fabulous dancer so she must not be in top shape since she isn't competing. Acting is probably less demanding than dancing.

 

[Jennasis]

Yay. Chynna had no bid-ness there...forgetting the routine. No excuse.
