That was before I started watching.
You missed a treat CC - Ty was such a cutie a real cowboy learning to dance! He's the only celeb I've ever voted for on DWTS!

At the end of the launch show just after Ann and Anton had been paired Bruce asked Len what he thought of the pairings and he said 'Its never too soon to panic on this show'

Tom continues to be great but Brooke not so much
Brooke is terrible! Come back Samantha Harris, all is forgiven!

Rick and Cheryl
This jive was just okay for me. Even though he is very tall I still think he could of danced a better jive.

Florence and Corky
A good quickstep but it could have been a little bit faster.

Brandy and Maks
Brandy is a pain in the butt! I didn't like the fact that she immediately blamed Maks for her solo in their jive. Brandy danced really poorly, her kicks were bad and I feel very sorry for Maks.

Michael and Chelsie
I cringed when Michael crawled out the dog kennel. Watching their VT i found Michael was very patronising towards Chelsie.
What a complete overreaction to Bruno's comments on their Jive. It is his job to judge their dancing and if Bruno thinks that a dance deserves a 3 then he should not be forced into giving a couple a better score.

Audrina and Tony
This was much better than their Cha Cha Cha. I'm just happy that Tony does not to have to dance with that awful Kate Gosslin again.

Jennifer and Derek
Jennifer is a fantastic dancer. Jennifer is 50 and was still able to keep up with Derek through the whole dance.

Margaret and Louis
My favourite couple. Her jive was a lot of fun and i loved the fact that Margaret is starting to realise that she is a good dancer.

Kyle and Lacey
You can tell these two get on really well with each other. They brought a lot of energy in their quickstep but lacked a lot of technique.

Kurt and Anna
In my opinion Kurt's jive was much better than Ricks.

The Sh*tuation and Karina
He is just annoying and i hope he leaves next week.

Bristol and mark
They have a great relationship and Bristol is so sweet. Bristol needed to give a bigger performance in her quickstep.

Yeah they put both shows on together like last time & I managed to sneakily watch them this afternoon, before hubby gets home from work .
I'm not going to comment on each partnership until we're down to about half, as I can't be bothered tbh. Just the front runners & the duffers .
Brandi & Maks have no chemistry & unless she starts listening to him, although she can dance it is going to end in tears imo.
The Situation is dire, "slight" pigeon toes? What with them, his skinny legs & kipper feet I cringed when he started & FF the end. He reminds me of that **** in SCD who thought he was really good.
Poor Michael, I thought Chelsey was disrespectful making him grovel like a dog, another cringing moment. Poor man could not dance though & she knew it so looked like a sourpuss (for being partnered with a duffer most prob').
Jennifer is a fantastic dancer but leaves me cold, as someone else has mentioned.
I'm starting to have a "want to be her Mommy" crush on Bristol. & I think she will be the Journeywoman this season.
I love Florence but can't stand Corky.
Everyone else was sort of middle of the road for me & did not really bleep on my radar yet. I'm sure time will change that though.
Appologies for mispellings but I have n't got the time to check out names on the DWTS webpage as hubby is due home any minute & I've got to start dinner .

Thanks Jan - it's a classic line for me now!

Michael Bolton looked ready to go, dont know if he lost weight on the show or because of it but it really made hime look old!. 'The Situation' was terrible he must go soon!. I can't believe Sarah Palin is a politician, she is so unintentionally funny!!

Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough

Derek is 25, and Jennifer is 50. Jennifer is easily old enough to be Derek's mum, if not his grannie.
Jennifer is not old enough to be his granny! I thought she was fantastic. Yes, the "ringer" comments have been made, but you can't teach talent. It was absolutely ludicrous to give her an 8 when Audrina received a few of them. The dance easily deserved a 10. I think they are giving her low scores so people don't think she's miles ahead of the others. Well, she is. It's obvious, so give her what she deserves! I also like her personality - she comes across as quirky and warm. Nicole (the ringer from last season) was good last year, but she had very little personality. Jen's technique is much better than Nicole's was IMO.

Jennifer put all of her energy into her jive. By contrast, Michael didn't even try. The lack of technique didn't annoy me, but the fact that he didn't put any energy into it did.

I like Kyle. He has a lot of energy, but he doesn't have much else. His technique is a bit terrible. I was surprised at his scores to be honest.

Brandy really irritates me. She seems really smug. I'm not really sure that she has much potential. Yes, she could be quite good, but she'll never be great. She has a lot of energy but technique goes out the window. The judges were generous giving her a 7.

As amazing as Jennifer is... for some reason I just can't warm to her. Plus, two weeks in she's already on the sob-story offensive. She'll probably win easily enough though and it'd be deserved, though I'd rather see someone like Audrina win

I miss Samantha also. She could be awkward at times and put her foot in her mouth but had a warmth and spontaneity about her. She seemed genuinely interested in the celebs whereas Brooke seems forced and being fed her lines. Brooke seems too tense and robotic to do live tv IMO.

Brooke may look beautiful. but there is no sign of her personality at all. She needs to just relax.

Samantha was more of a professional than Brooke could ever hope to be.

With Brooke it's all about Me, Me, Me!

I'm a big fan of The Situation but he needs to seriously stay in Jersey Shore and not dance! He is quite dreadful, but he will probably just stay in because he's poor.

Do you think he will have a big fan base because of being in Jersey Shore?

I don't know - the American voting pattern seems very different to the UK one. It's quite common for the worst dancers to leave, it's not that often that a very bad dancer stays in over someone much better.

So far my favourite performances have been Jennifer and Derek (Derek's choreography is always so clever and inspired), and Kyle and Lacey (he seems to have such a joy in performing, it's infectious.)

I thought there were some really good performances for week 2, and I was so pleased to see Rick - at 6'4" (?) - dance a really great jive. I'm so fed up with hearing that tall people can't jive - that's absolute nonsense, of course they can!

Florence - 76 yrs young I would say! I know people half her age with less energy.

Brandy needs to remember who is the teacher! Her jive was weak and sloppy.

Michael - I agreed with Bruno, it was the worst jive ever, but I'm not sure he should have said it! Those remarks are acceptable on SCD not DWTS!

Glad to see Margaret danced 'sensibly' this week after last weeks' silliness.

I like Kyle, but find him just a bit too OTT; and I don't think I will ever take to Lacey - and what on earth was that dress????

The only good thing I can say about The Situation was the music! Americano is one of my favourites.

Michael Bolton is cringe worthy just like that "comedienne" Cho, glad to see him gone and hope the oriental whale goes next week. Lacey Schwimmer is smoking. Rick and Audrina most likely to win. Wish Florence with her faux bullshit would drop dead already. That is all.

I miss her too. She was classy and funny.

Bwook is a dead pan, wind up doll. Completely vacant. I actually think she's a bit stupid and finds it all a bit too hard

I am so glad Michael B has gone. I don't mind if someone is a bit of a goof, but the man had no sense of humour, never mind the zero ability problem. I hate divas and he was one

The Situation needs to go. Deeply stupid boy. He can't dance for toffee.

Adore Rick. Gorgeous. Has possibilities. Wish one of them was moi

Am loving it to be honest. Bruno is tiresome and Len is dull but the razzamatazz makes up for it

But I'm right, though. And YES "she" has been voted out.
