Hmm. Len having second thoughts about his score for the bollywood samba. I think he did the right thing.

So it looks like Derek may not be back next year. That is probably a good thing because he seems to be persona non grata on DWTS right now.

Thanks for posting that.
Lol at MarkB. "Would you rather find a million $ in a box or find true love and he said a million $ without any hesitation "Because I thought I found true love many times in the past ...." Lol.

Uncle Lenny again. Interview with KTLA.

Len was absolutely right about Maria's dances this week. There wasn't enough in hold in the VW (which is ironic, given how they've stayed in hold for so many of the latin dances ) and there was almost no samba in the samba. I wish the other two didn't get quite so carried away with the performance (which was terrific in both numbers) that they totally lose sight of the task in hand

Patio furniture pushed into a car when it's too big not a great idea Val

What did you think of the concept of the 3 way dances? They seemed to have gone down well. It forces the pros to really be creative and also let another pro shine.


I don't know if this is an idea that would do well on SCD or should just be left to DWTS.

I actually really enjoyed them, which was a bit of a surprise. I think it refreshed the established partnerships and also gave a whiff of 'what might have been' .

I don't know if it would be good on SCD - I quite like to watch it 'straight' without too many twists or gimmicks (but, as twists go, it's one of my favourites, so why not? )

I fear that Katherine is going to leave tonight!

I agree DWTS is way too gimmicky, relies too much on props and I do wish it were more elegant keeping in line with true ballroom dance. But I also like the energy and innovation of the show. There have been times that when risky choreo has paid off.

To me the 2 best things to come out of DWTS so far have been the team dances and now this trio idea.

Oh and the fact that they had the good sense to hire Tristan.

Donald and Peta safe.

Katherine and Mark in jeopardy.

They want some drama tonight. Going up against the finale of the voice.

Roshon and Chelsie first couple eliminated.

I can't see Derek and Maria leaving

So William and Donald in finale.

Waiting on third couple.

Good god they like to string it out.

Maria and Derek are safe.

Melissa in jeopardy.

Melissa and Maks leaving.

Can Maria Please, please leave next week??
Derek knew what he was doing by choreographing that bollywood samba .
Aww Melissa getting eliminated on her birthday, she was lovely same with Roshon.
I think that not being well-known in the demographics that watch the show is not a good combination because somehow Roshon no matter how hard he worked didnt have the votes.

unfortunately!
As I have said before I actually like Derek he is probably my fav. pro in that show but I dont like his partnership with Maria.
I actually feel that Melissa deserved to advance because she made humongous progress in this show but Derek has been clever at hiding Maria weaknesses all season and the judges dont really point that out.

Derek is a good choreographer, but the judges always give him an easy time. That's very unfair to everyone else. I really hope he does leave after this season.

I agree.
He has a new movie coming out this fall so I think that there is a possibility that he might take a break or just quit the show.

Elimination of Melissa and Maks
