    Watching DWTS for the first time in several seasons. Like the new host team-so much better than Tyra by herself. I'm rooting for Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylie although I do have to admit that Chandler is pretty good. Was so nervous last night but glad that Jen Tran went home. Happy that she won the dance-off. At least she could go off on a high note and I thought that she and her partner did do a slightly better job with the salsa. Thinking of you, dear Divinemrsm.

    Thanks everyone! What a difference a day makes! My morning was crazy but got better. My roommate was discharged so it has been quiet and this evening has been so relaxing. I guess a hospital environment has lots of dips and turns and you gotta roll with it! My brother sent me fresh cut flowers which are not just beautiful but they also smell lovely; orange, red and pink mums and roses. Heโ€™s a brother who never says much, so it was a thoughtful gesture of him.

    Hello, chicagoan!

    Wonderland, congratulations on the birth of a brand new baby granddaughter!!! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿผ๐Ÿšผ Itโ€™s always such exciting news! โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ

    Several of us here seem to dislike the dance offs. It feels like DWTS uses them as a filler. I much prefer the trio dances. Itโ€™s great that the dances are getting so much betrer, it makes them more fun to watch.

    divine: I am so glad to hear that things are more relaxing for you. Your brother must love you very much even though it's hard for him to say it. How thoughtful that he sent you fresh cut flowers. And they smell lovely! Sending more HUGS to you โค๏ธ

    Thanks Ruthbru! I've really enjoyed it this year. The tweaks they made seem to be working. Bruno is a bit over the top for me but otherwise, it is quite enjoyable. I like Stephen so much that I use my 20 votes for him each night!

    I think the hosts are great this year. They don't try to be the stars of the show! I'm still spreading my votes out!

    Good Evening Ladies. Divine, I hope you are feeling good enough to watch the show. Make comments if you feel like it, if not just enjoy. ๐Ÿ’ž

    I'm making comments as I watch the show.

    Joey/Jenna: I really think Joey has a chance to win but this dance was not that compelling for me. It was more of a "let's watch Jenna dance" dance.

    Danny/Witney: That was energizing to watch. Good music and I really liked it. Danny looked like he was having fun.

    Dwight/Daniella: I liked the way they started on the platform. Seems like Daniella did most of the dancing.

    Stephen/Rylee: So eloquent, flowing. Stephen didn't rush his moves. Loved it.

    Chandler/Brandon: Best dance so far. I feel like they both are professional dancers, not just Brandon. Chandler is SO good!

    Ilona/Alan: Pure Fun with a capital F! Great music, lively, and they were having a blast.

    Instant Dancing - All dancers did a good job considering they only had 5 minutes to prepare a dance. I think Joey and Chandler were the best. I'll say one thing, Ilona is so strong! The way she lifted Alan was amazing.

    I don't know who will be voted off. I suspect one of 2 couples.

    They just voted off one of those couples that I suspected. They will be missed.

    I also hope you were able to enjoy the show, Divine!

    Here's my notes:

    *Joey & Jenna-I liked both of their dances, they really have lovely lines.

    *Danny & Whitney-I thought their first dance was really fun, but didn't really like their instant dance that much.

    *Dwight & Daniella- Very clever use of the stage in the first dance & I thought the Jive was good too. The height difference is challenging, but I like him so much. Such a sweet personality.

    *Stephen & Rylee- Wow! He has really improved. He is so much more polished, and smooth. Another lovely, bubbly person.

    *Chandler & Brandon- They are certainly the couple to beat. Yes, they both do look professional.

    Ilona & Alan-very strong, but I thought the first dance was kind of frantic & didn't like the music of the second (which was not their fault, of course).

    I didn't really like the Instant Dance format. It didn't seem that fair to people who weren't as experienced with dance.

    I wasn't surprised by who got voted off, but I was sad anyway.

    Semifinals next week. I believe 3 couples to through to the end. I think Chandler & Brandon will be in it, but I'm not sure about the other two.

    Had to miss tonight. I'll try to catch some of the dances on YouTube
