    Oh, my!  The dance by William & Cheryl & sung by Jackie brought tears to my eyes.  Jackie Evanko has such incredible poise and presence to match her talent and so very youthful and pure.Very touching.

    One test of a great dance is when you really can't stand someone but they go out and nail it and you think "that was awesome!"  That's how I felt about Maria and Derek's dance.  Perfection.

    Donald and Peta are a striking couple on the dance floor.

    Melissa...not bad, but at times awkward-looking.  Her first dress looked elegant at first, but as she danced, the undergarment kinda reminded me of big girl underwear.

    Canon in D ~ one of the few classical songs I know and completely love ~ was the tune for Katherine & Mark's dance.  I thought they were okay.  I'm not always a big fan of the guy dancing without a shirt; it can be a bit boring.  However, I did love the team paso doble at the end of the show when the three "men" took off their jackets...

    Divine - I agree.  My brain was having a hard time concentrating on the dance William and Cherryl were doing because I wanted to also see Jackie.  That girl was amazing!

    Maria and Dereck were great! I didn't care for the fangs.  I don't think she needs them.  She is a great dancer.

    This is one tough season.

    Wow just saw Maria and Derrick they get my vote tonight.  Had to laugh about the "granny" panties cause that is all I could think about when I saw her, it would have been better is the dress didn't have slits, that being said she is my least favourite.

    Classical week is my favorite so far!  Excellent costumes (Donald Driver in a golden tailcoat) and I loved the fangs on Maria.  Great touch, and their dance perfectly matched the music.  Katherine is a joy to watch and William & Cheryl were wonderful dancing to Jackie's pure soaring voice. 

    Fortunately or unfortunately, I don't get to watch the results show because DH and I have date night on Tuesdays.  So I usually come here Weds morning to see who didn't make the cut.

    Good show last night...the competition really heated up and turned everything upside down.  Good for Maria and Derek....leave it to Derek to come up with something fantastic, although the fangs could have been left out.  I didn't expect Lew to "bite" on that one...lol.

    It's hard to beleive that those lyrics are coming out of the mouth of a child as young as Jackie.  She is truly gifted.

    I liked the fangs.  A 'pretty' girl will use a prop like that to change her appearance in order to be taken more seriously.

    I loved Derek's natural hair style and have been scanning some web pages trying to find a picture of it...I know that cut would look great on my son!

    MrsM - did you try checking vidios and pics from prior seasons on the DWS website?

    So, who do you think will get voted off tonight?

    Hopefully it will be Melissa...

    Actually I would just as soon see Melissa gone.

    I think Roshan redeemed himself last night in the team dance with rave reviews from the judges.  Good for him...I think he has been under rated on his dances.  Now if his fan base will just come through for him!

    I think Melissa.  Roshon seems like he still has a lot to offer.

    Melissa and Max make me nervous.  He looked like he was ready to blow last night when they got the bad review.  I will be surprised if he's on next season.  I used to like him, but he's turned into a hothead.  Not a big fan with the judges either I don't think.

    I think it will be Roshan, though I don't think he should be the one to go!

    O.K., I'm really confused. I thought last night was "Classics" night, yet the song Chelsea and Roshon danced to was "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga????????

    Sorry, ladies. I'm just getting burned out on DWTS. I used to record every show, but then never found the energy to actually watch it. And the times I did, I felt like it was two hours of my life I'd never get back again.

    So for now, I'll come here to read all y'all's comments about the dancers and keep caught up that way! I trust your judgement! Wink

    Besides, I waste enough time glued to the TV on Wednesdays and Thursdays for American Idol.

    Still, TWO HOURS......Yell

    I think either Melissa or Roshon will be the one to go.

    Yep, I think the dance off will be between Roshon and Melissa.  I'm hoping she goes home but it's too close for call.  Hope Roshon stays another week.

    Wow... that was a surprise! And Jaleel making that comment about Len? Not a smart move, lol!

    I think Jaleel just nailed his own caufin.  What was he thinking?  Someone needs to tell him not to bite the hand that feeds him.

    Was it me or did Jaleel almost look like he wasn't dancing his best? Almost like he had given up?

    Goodness, I love this show!

    Bye, Bye Jaleel.  Glad Roshon is saved.  I think the only thing saving Melissa is Maks!

    Prediction: Next week will be Roshon and Melissa in the dance off.

    Odalys, I think I heard them say it was the last dance off... anyone know for sure?

    I thought that was the last dance off, too.  Gosh, I sure hope so; I don't care for them.

    I think Melissa has lots of fans from her Prarie days, and they're keeping her in the running.  I rarely vote, so I'm not one who can complain! Her whining doesn't bother me but watching her dance gets kinda painful.

    I found the segment with "Steelo", the dancer who's making a comeback from a brain aneurysm, was incredibly touching.  And it was very classy when Derek commented on how inspirational Steelo was.

    I was thinking the same thing about Jaleel.  There is no way Melissa is better.  I wish Maks fans would stop voting for Maks instead of Melissa.  I think the judges need to be really bruttal with Melissa next week.  She may just forget the dance routine  :)

    You are right, no more dance off.  I just remembered. The producers will have to come up with something else and the judges need to have a strategy for her to go home.  Pleaese, please, please....this is not little house and she is painful to watch!   Jaleel is a far better dancer!!!!

    Steelo was inspiring...amazing!  He touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes.  He is a dancing miracle.
