*Official* DWTS 2012 Thread

This:

Oh, I agree. Cheryl is an incredible teacher, no doubt about it. But Rob still seems blah when he dances. Of course that's just my opinion. Well, that and the fact that the Kardashians annoy the heck out of me.

What? And here I thought *I* was the only one who was sick to death of the Kardashians! Glad I'm not alone.

I've never been a Kardashian fan at all, in fact they annoy the hell out of me. But that doesn't stop me from seeing how well Rob is doing.

Oh, I'm petty; it stops me.

BTW, if anyone has a pre-paid Tracfone, you don't lose any minutes for calling in votes. Tracfones usually allow about 12 seconds before it ticks off a minute/unit. The phone calls in usually can be done in 4 - 8 seconds. You get the confirmation announcement & can hang up immediately.

First time I've voted on DWTS and it may be last. Why do they make it so difficult? Couldn't txt my vote--said voting wasn't open? but according to the website voting times it was prime voting time.
Couldn't vote online because everytime I tried to enter my email it said it was taken, even when I used one I know I have never used.
Finally I just called the 800#.

What a PITA.

I am glad I am not alone in not liking the Kardashians.

Rob has improved, but the judges put him in the finals by scoring him way too high last week. Carrie Ann gave him a 10, he sure didn't deserve that. His freestyle was good, Cheryl did a good job, I still don't think it was a 10, but I really didn't think JR's freestyle was a 10 either.

JR is a way better dancer than Rob, he was a little off in his cha cha but it was still way better than Rob's. Maybe JR was better but I couldn't concentrate on his dancing because the hoodie he was wearing was so annoying. Why would he wear a hoodie for that dance!?

Rikki was okay tonight but not great and I really don't want Derek to win again. Sorry Rikki, maybe I would like you better with another pro.

So I voted for the war hero, who I think was the best dancer this season.

Somebodies were blowing up JR's number. I tried for an hour and a half and I got through ONCE!!!! Holy cow was that line busy.

took me a long time too...but did get 3 votes in for him. I have an extra reason for voting for him. He is the first partner that I have noticed Karina be humbled by. Don't get me wrong, JR has an ego, no doubt, but for some reason Karina was far more pleasant. I liked Anna the Ice Queen much better with Carson too. Anyways, while I was a little torn over Rikki and JR, it was Karina's improvement that was my deciding factor.

 

[Jennasis]

I didn't like JR & Karina's freestyle at all. It was messy, out-of-sync and seemed less like two partners dancing and more like two people in a night club.

I thought Rob REALLY stepped up and performed both dances really well. Rikki was terrific but could have been a bit flashier in her freestyle.

Will be a fun night tonight!

 

[Dee77]

I didn't have any problems with getting my phone votes in for JR after his first dance which is when I decided to give him all my votes because he has been the most inspiring and entertaining all season (I was sad that his nerves or something got the best of him during the Cha Cha.) Glad I called then rather than trying later when the phone lines were blowing up. I hope he takes first place and to be honest I would like to see Rob get second because Rikki is so annoying and sounds like a broken record about her weight and she seems to be fishing for compliments and reassurance all the time. Enjoy the show tonight everyone!!

There was something about JR's that was off - not sure, but it looked like he was being easy on his ankle.

I HATED Rikki's freestyle dress. Come on, enough with the feathers already!!!! Last week she was wearing Big Bird, this week she was wearing an ostrich!!

OMG...I am so over her! The big blowup of her before her freestyle dance....made me think of the BIGGEST LOSER contestants. She is not the first to lose weight on DWTS and won't be the last. Once she is not dancing for hours per day it will be much more difficult to maintain that shape. Derek is just annoying himself with the shirt off all the time.

Yes, JR might have an ego at times...but he has been through so much and is by far the better dancer. I don't like Rob but if it came down between him and Ricky I'd rather see him. I am hoping to hear JR as the winner.

 

[robinb]

I had no problems voting for JR. I also threw a couple of votes to Rob because I liked his freestyle. I think JR will win and it will interesting if Rob bumps out Ricki for 2nd place.

 

[goofinoff]

I thought Rob took the whole night last night. His waltz was great and his free style was excellent!!! I'm not a huge fan of the Kardashian clan but I did think that he did a great job!

I agree with this 100%!

 

[npmommie]

I really don't care so much who wins, I just hope it is JR or Rob. I am so sick of hearing Ricki talk about her weight, she IS like a broken record. and does seem to need reassurance.
It is so unflattering, she should accept herself and not portray this image that she HAS to be thin to be happy.

It didn't help when she looked like she was on Biggest Loser finale the way she busted through her "fat before picture" on her freestyle .

First time I've chimed in on this thread, but I've been watching all season. I think the judges are too easy on Rob. His dances bore me. He has definitely improved a lot over the season and portions of both of his dances last night were very good, but other portions were a bore. I think his fluidity is awful. He's constantly pausing between moves. If they are going to deduct points for Rikki's lack of fluidity, they should be doing the same for Rob.

I thought JR's freestyle absolutely blew Rob's out of the water. It's too bad they had already given Rob all 10's, because there was no way to score JR any higher, and he deserved it on the freestyle. JR's timing was off on his cha cha, but he didn't deserved that 7. I gave all my votes to JR, because I think he is the best dancer, but I think Rob will win it, because it seems that's what ABC is pushing. All season, the judges have been so supportive and complimentary to him, which they should be to ALL contestants, but it's a sharp contrast to the way they treated some of the others. It's easy to gain confidence and improve when you're being constantly flattered while others are belittled for their efforts.
