Hi bigtoe, it's so disappointing about the webcam problems. I think the lack of communication from him is the sad part, he's clearly not even checking on it, so people in Hong Kong, Australia etc. just post a comment that it's not working and he doesn't give any feedback if he's having tech probs and it'll be resolved soon, so stick around etc. You're just left to fend for yourself in the dark so to speak. I know that sounds harsh, but it's obviously true that he wants to wind it down, and but for the fact that so many people rely on him, he probably would have by now. Other people are supplying the videos now anyway, and they seem to get them up pretty quickly, so yes, I think I may just go to bed and watch the next day like normal people!!

I don't get the disappointment myself, well the Sambas were not all great, but overall I really enjoyed last week's show alot, and what with Marie fainting it was a shock/drama fest aswell!
I think the viewers in the US are just getting tired with 2 series a year, you can prob have enough of a good thing, but some were pleased that the right people have been voted off, and the public have chosen wisely so far this series. I still don't believe that Sabrina will win. I think Jane might go, sadly, next week, as the others are all very popular with the public..apart from Mel.
But Jennie, Cameron - TV stars in/from poular shows,
Marie, an Osmond icon,
Mel & Jane, the 2 Brits, but Jane more popular and more Americanized. I don't think they *get* Mel's Northern-ness and not talking very much or looking directly at the camera, she's always looking away.
That leaves Helio and Sabrina - she is seen as already a dancer, and he is uber popular and so is his pro partner. The US don't mind 2 x champions, they have Cheryl already, and Julianne could be next.

I'm actually really loving this series, enjoying the dancing and the presentation and the drama.

I really enjoyed the pro dance

I'm really surprised there aren't more threads about DWTS. The quality of the best performances is just awesome. I admit to becoming somewhat addicted to it after seeing Apolo and Julianne's Samba mid-way through the last series.

Sabrina, Helio, Mel and Jennie are all serious contenders now - the standard over the next few weeks should be really good.

Ahh, a person after my own heart. I've watched that twice on YouTube today.

I've not seen any of this series yet due to either being out or watching the rugby but hopefully will finally get to see some tonight.

Not sure how I feel about seeing Julianne dance with another man. I really wanted her and Apolo to run away together.

TBH, I haven't really 'bonded' with this seasons celebs apart from Helio. It was a shame Albert didn't get a longer run. I'm missing the Apolo/Julianne factor and also Joey and Laila. It just feels way more intense and less fun than last time.

LOL - yeah, so does half of America
Well, she has spoken to him fairly recently and she's supposed to have broken up with the boyfriend, so you never know

I agree it seems weird watching her dance with Helio, great guy, but.............it just ain't the same

bigtoe - you never told me who her boyfriend was?

I'm missing the bigtoe DWTS gossip!

I love Jane and Tony! I'd love to see her make the final!

Doh!!!!! sorry La Rhumba, you'll have to forgive me, the old memory cells are flagging a bit

The boyfriend is/was? Zack Wilson. He's also a trained dancer but has packed it in and is now training to be a dentist
He's 25 (same age as Apolo ) and as a practising Mormon he's already completed his Mission.
His parents must be loaded cos apparently it takes 7 years at Dentistry school!!!

Not gonna happen!!

Why not?

Who do you think will make the final?

I thought Len was right about Sabrina.

I have to say I've always thought her dancing looked good but I've never loved her dances it leaves me slightly cold.

Even knowing Marie was going to faint, it was pretty shocking.

Thud !

She seemed a tad manic before too

Anyone else think Cheater Girl has a funny shape - and not in a good way?

She's one strange cupcake that one

Yes, where's her neck ???

Its hard to put a finger on it........there's just no charisma at all. No sense of someone blossoming through the experience. Although that is down to the fact that she is already a trained dancer

Cameron has really improved, this is what I like to see on SCD/DWTS

It's just that the older contestants dont usually get further than 5th placing.

I love Helio!!!

Me too . How weird was Marie fainting

I really liked their dance and the judges hated it! (Helio)

I do too


I prefer to watch Mel B dance than Sabrina but don`t go much on her attitude and loud mouth

I still can't believe that Jane Seymour is 56 !!!!!!!!
