I don't dislike it and I do like Frankie very much .. not so much Kevin .. but I've watched all the semi final dances loads .. even the terrible barefoot rumba. Frankie just looked expressionless to me .. as in her face and I couldn't feel a connection. The most expressive I've seen her is in her Tango and Paso .. so the latter is a good choice for them to dance again.

Well most people loved Frankie's AT so you're in the minority.

Kevin has this act going on with the glasses and manner of speaking that again appeals to some and not to others.”

It is the nervous laugh that annoys me.

I do like someone who can do a whole hearted laugh.

I will joined the minority by saying that, I didn't really like Frankie's AT. It lacked any kind of punch.

I have watched all the finalists dances again and Frankie just doesn't wow me, I don't feel the emotion between her and Kevin. She is obviously a good dancer but she has been since the start.

yes I was watching and for me, all the steps were there but it was lacking in any kind of emotion, connection to Kevin or passion, she doesn't wow me, she hasn't since week 1

I do wish some people would stop using excuses to mask their dislike of a certain couple. It seems that saying "there's no personality"/"no wow moment" is just a way of saying they aren't my favourite couple.

Mark and Karen are my least favourite couple but I was "wowed" by his Samba and Jive, and I'm not petty enough to say that I've hated all his dances (I quite liked his Viennese Waltz too). I'm not Caroline's greatest fan either but her Charleston was one of the defining moments of the series.

If you don't like a certain couple/don't want them to win, just say it instead of trying to find a reason.

I wish people would stop telling others that just because they are not wowed by someone's dancing there must be a hidden dislike behind it. Maybe you are just more easily wowed than them? I don't have a favourite this year because no one has danced well enough to 'wow' me, but the only one I dislike is Mark (because of his big book of reality show clichés rather than anything to do with his dancing). I don't see why it is petty to say someone's dancing doesn't move them or they don't enjoy it - its just a different opinion.

If everyone came on and said x or y isn't my favorite couple and gave no reasons it would be a very boring forum with no discussions. Saying there is no wow moment does not automatically mean you are masking a dislike for the couple either.

I'll join you lot in the splinter group too. I don't really like the Argentine tango in general but that one had no drama or emotion as far as I was concerned.

I don't dislike Frankie and Kevin but they haven't really wowed me with any of their dances. She's a very competent dancer but lacks a spark somehow to make her dances more interesting.

The other three couples have all had at least one dance that has made me say 'wow'.

Frankie only gets to do her Paso if she gets through to the final 3 - I would be surprised if she doesn't get to that portion of the competition but stranger things have happened

I was wowed by Frankie's actual tango, her defying gravity, however I really wasn't by her AT as there was a lot of flaws in it and I didn't feel a connection between them either, for em it didn't do anything either.

It's just people's opinions, dance is always subjective and different people feel differently about each couple and each performance, it isn't an excuse because they don't like the couple, their opinions are valid.

Is it her fault if you don't "feel" the emotion?

I think people are just expressing why they haven't felt compelled to vote for her. Nothing to do with anyone's 'fault' - you like what you like.

Sorry .. yes .. of course. I forgot about that Still, surely Frankie is safe? I'd be amazed if not .. more amazed than Mark is in getting to the final

I wouldn't be surprised if Frankie finishes 4th, Craig and Darcy are not on her bandwagon at all so I'm sure they will hype up the other 3 and critique Frankie.
