Its not Austin which is weak, Lisa is the weakest......
Totally agree. At this stage in the competition, if they're going to have the dance off (scrap it from the quater finals onwards I say, or just all together), the judges should be thinking about who the public want to see in the final, and what would make it interesting. The judges have way too much control at this point in the competition.

The judges have made one of the most stupid decisions ever in my eyes; we're going to end up with a very boring semi final and final I expect.

If they didn't have the dance off, I'm pretty much certain it wouldn't have been Austin and Erin on the sofa yesterday evening.

well I was dreading Austin getting to the final because I thought that if he did it would be a shoo-in

so now I think it's less predictable and I'm very much looking forward to it

he was a pretty good dancer, he just didn't light my fire

such is life

Austin was the last dancer left who actually entertained me. I'm sure the 3 left are good, but I couldn't give a monkey's about their dancing, so, I won't be watching any more. I'll record the results show and FF through it all except the pro dances.

I think it`s even more predictable - Tom gets through next week and the glitterball is his for the taking .

Indeed, such a pity JS bowed out. He'd have given them both the challenge they needed: the true "people's choice". Why do we have to bother with judges' opinions?

Some of the same people claiming that Austin was the best dancer because he had the highest scores and average score are also claiming the judges pushed him out by their biased scoring! The judges must be very clever to be running multiple agendas and voting strategies. Either the scores are fair and prove who was the best dancer was, or they don't. You can't have it both ways with selective application.

Also, the suggestion that the judges should also consider who the public want in the final when judging the dance off is silly. If JS was in a dance off, should they have kept him in because he was who the public wanted in the final? The judges should judge on dancing alone.
