Yay for Disney Night! Vivtoria and Val we're fabulous; I absolutely loved their Minnie and Mickey routine.
Once again, I loved Drew and Emma. In fact, the combo of their dance with the Rainbow Connection song along with the visuals brought tears to my eyes.
Frankie Munez with Wintney was awesome. She rocked that leather skirt outfit.
Jordan and Linsday, well deserving of those 10s! He seems so mature for his age.
I'm not a fan of Nikki, but I loved her Mexican dance.

Yes, Disney Night was very fun. I wasn't crazy about Drew at first but he is growing on me. A very smooth, well done dance tonight. Frankie definitely had his best dance so far tonight, as did Nikki. V &V did great. Jordan.....oh my, certainly the best of the best. He dances with such joy! I thought the right person went home. I was never as crazy about him/her (don't want to give it away) as the judges seemed to be.

Yes, agree with all your comments, Ruth, including the elimination.

What a great season, every week is so entertaining!
Lindsey was truly phenomenal.
Victoria is so beautiful and What.A.Smile!!!!!!
Vanessa is really class and elegance.
I was surprised that once again I really liked Nikki's dance.
Drew was not bad, a little corny but fun to watch. I love Frankie's enthusiasm tho his routine was a bit wobbly. Nick Lachey is just so stiff when he dances. It makes me realize how little some of the singers in boy bands put forth individually and yet the young girls go wild. Hormones! I missed Terrell's dance as I was trying to get some paperwork done, jumbled it up and needed to straighten it out.
I liked Jordan, but I have to say that there seems to be a connection missing between he and Lindsay. He doesn't look at her enough, its like he wants all eyes on him.
Eliminated contestant seemed appropriate! Loved Carrie Anne's hair and dress.
Shania Twain as a judge, she grew on me. She really hit it off with Bruno, I liked that, and her comments were thoughtful.

Agree all the way around. Terrell was very good too. He did a very polished, fun James Bond routine. The right person was eliminated IMO. I'm looking forward to the Halloween Dances next week!!

wow! The elimination was a shocker!
Otherwise I enjoyed the show. I especially liked Jordan's and Frankie's dances.
I liked both teams. I thought the corn maze Monster Mash was very creative. And the Phandom of the Opera number was stunning

I always enjoy the Halloween show. Yes, the elimination was quite a surprise! I thought the Monster Mash was fun, but maybe too much stuff going on. I loved the Phantom of the Opera dance! I really liked Frankie (for the first time, as I wasn't crazy about him before this week), Lindsay did great for being injured, Jordan was very good. I always like Terrill. I will be on vacation next week, so don't think I will have a chance to watch. Darn!

Ruth, you are such a traveler!
The Halloween show is always great. I loved the Phantom of the Opera group dance!
Lindsey is true entertainment. Loved her dance and the Irish type music, perfect.
Victoria was glorious to watch.
Jordan, also quite entertaining.
Freddie was terrific.
The elimination was a surprise, and yet appropriate. The remaining cast is pretty dynamic, we should get some great routines, and maybe trio week is up next, my favorite.
Erin was smokin last night, she rocked the glitzy black pantsuit and ponytail. Carrie Anne was cute with her crazy color wig.

I am thinking that Drew and/or Terrill might be the next to go. I think being too tall (or extremely short, for that matter) gets to be a aesthetic disadvantage when you get towards the end .

Sounds about right, Ruth!
Plus, did Freddie say there are only three more weeks left? What a fast season it seems like it's been!

MrsM,
I think (?) you mean Frankie. Yes, I believe he said three weeks. It's moving right along!
0 -
oops! Yes, Janett, Frankie. Thanks for the correction!

Tonight, Jordan was really bringing it.
Oh my gosh. In the first dance, when he and Lindsay both took a leap in the air together, I gave a gasp, it was so perfectly beautiful! And the dance with Corbin was such perfection I literally got teary eyed! What I really like is that Lindsay, in having two fabulous men to dance with, is free to bring out her really rockin' sexy side. Just terrific!
Lindsey Sterling with Kristi Yamaguchi did not disappoint either! Really should have got all tens. I admit, tho at times I haven't liked Mark, he adds a quality to the show that ups everyone else's game. Their trio, and his spectacular performance with Lindsey and Kristi was, like Carrie Anne said, something I'd pay money to see.
Freddie with Alfonso was very entertaining. Victoria, she was fabulous with Lori Hernandez! I thought the judges were a bit stingy with their scores. I loved Terrell's first dance!
I feel like the right couple was eliminated. Two,shows to go. Love the season!

I will have to catch up when I get home!!!

I am fine with Terrell going home, but I do feel that Cheryl gave him a really underwhelming trio dance routine to perform. She didn't even really give him a chance to really dance. I think that Derrick should be the next one off.....

Oh, yeah, Ruth,their trio dance was probably the most dull one I've ever seen!

Oh my, I am throwing all my eggs in Jordan's basket!

Watching it now but it was much more fun sitting on the balcony in Daytona watching it on my iPad with you last week Ruth!!!0

Boohoo I want to be in Florida again ❤️
All my eggs are in Jordans basket too, that jive was amazing0 -
***Spoiler alert
Looks like fun, ladies, and I'd like to throw my toes up there along side yours in sunny Eff-El-Aye!!
Well, it broke my heart that Victoria was eliminated. I'd have prefered Drew or Frankie gone over her. When she danced the routine where Val and Jenna portrayed her parents, I had tears streaming down my face. Her Charleston was amazing. She is so beautiful and her story is so moving. She has been having those leg spasms, tho, so I feel it may be safer for her to stop the intense physical sessions preparing for each week the show has required. I was touched by her vulnerableness in being visibly upset by getting voted off. That was my toughest vote off to go through ever.
The argentine tango by Meryl and Max to "I feel so close to you right now" is one of my all time favorite dances, and I remember watching it on video many times. I did not care for Lindsey and Mark's version. Her dress looked like an old lady dress, and they simply did not have the same smoldering chemistry M & M did.
I'm wth you, Ruth, all the eggs into Jordan's basket! His jive with Lindsay was incredible to watch. I love when the male celebrity is so fabulous that the professional female can be full on hot, smokin sexy, which is exactly what Lindsay was in that dance. I will be watching it agan on video. And, of course, she's never won the Mirror Ball, so rooting for her to go all the way this time.

Divine, some of the ladies from the 'Let's Post Our Daily Exercise' thread meet up every year. Come over and make ONE post ever and you will be eligible for our next vacation!
Yes, I would have rather had Derek or Frankie go. Derek is too big, and Frankie just doesn't have the confidence. Neither has the smooth, precise moves you need to win. It is probably better for Vanessa's health that she be done......but you could tell that she was really putting her heart and soul into this, so that made it extra sad.
Mark's routines are always a gamble.......some great, some don't work at all. And, as you said, Lindsey & he just don't have the chemistry, which is something you can't fake (unless, maybe, you are a very good actor).
I think I will go watch Jordan & Lindsay again right now. Chemistry + Skill + the Love of Dance= Perfection!

I was sad to see her go too, her routine was beautiful and brought a tear to my eye. I have to say I had forgotten about Maks and Merrill and WOW it was breathtaking to see it again and didn't really enjoy Marks version the chemistry was "off" Once again for some it has boiled down to dancers who have a following - HGTV has a massive audience that I think has helped Drew0

A few additional comments about Jordan and Lindsay's jive. I've watched it many times now, it is that good. Proud Mary has been stuck in my head all week.
I see that they start out wearing red, just like Paige and Mark did, then rip off the velcro to reveal the gold and glitter. That kind of showmanship detail is what takes this show to the next level. Also, when you are this freaking good, you don't need to rip your shirt off to show your abs. Jordan was so classy in his turtle neck shirt with Lindsay in the fringe. Its what you want to see.
The footwork is phenominal.
I also love that they do a quick homage to Tina Turner and the Ike-ettes' dance where they shimmy back and forth very fast on their toes , forward and backwards, a memorable iconic dance step of Tina's.
Lastly, in their first dance of the evening, Len gave J and L a bit of criticism that I think helped their Jive. He complained their argentine tango lacked the right chemistry. He said (and it is not the first time he's said it), "a tango is something a man dances with his wife, but an argentine tango is something a man dances with his mistress." He said it should be so sultry you almost feel like you shouldn't be watching. Lindsay had a surprised, slightly shocked reaction to Len saying that. But I think a light bulb went off in her head at that moment, andshe and Jordan realized they could use that bit of knowledge to up the sex appeal and chemistry in their jive, that it was okay to come out, embrace those sparks and give us an awesome performance..
Here's the jive clip:

I've watched it multiple times as well. As I pick each aspect of the dance apart, I am more and more impressed. A 10 on every level!

Holy Cow!!!

Haha! Yeah! I am glad of who got eliminated.
Lindsey and Mark were terrific in the freestyle. I had a feeling they would be, because Mark knows how to pull out all the stops. And, she came out looking young and contemporary, whereas her last several dances prior, she was dressed sort of frumpy. So again, that is showmanship.
I did like Jordan and Lindsay's freestyle, but it wasn't anything overly new.
Did not like Frankie's freestyle. Drew's was okay.
Reading some comments on DWTS facebook page, it seems like more people are for Lindsay. So we will see. That freestyle is always what does it, and Mark knows that. It is sort of how you play your cards.

Wow! So entertaining. Great freestyle dances. I would be happy with any of the three finalists winning.
And Julianne's dance was so moving and beautiful.

Wow wow wow what great freestyles, I liked Frankies as it was so different and Mark and Lindsay were amazing but Jordan is still my vote to win. Drew really was the most improved but glad Frankie made it through.
