Beth, I too wish we could have seen Stanislaus do his dance with his original partner that was voted off. She seemed more light footed and graceful than the partner he had last night. I don't understand why they chose Erin over her. I thought a couple would be eliminated tonight; however, in reading the posts, only one person will be eliminated? I hope that is so, as it would be more fair for the good dancers who happen to have a not so good partner.

I think they have to maintain an equal number of men & women.

Are playing a game of telephone? LOL. One male and one female dancer will be eliminated tonight. Not as a pair, but as individuals.

I liked couples 1,9, & 10 the best (no certain order). I'm ok with any of the others going home.

I watched again and never heard them say they will be keeping their partners but it appears to be so. One dancer commented on developing a relationship and that is not the language you use for one dance, I dont think anyway. Where did we hear they'd be keeping their partners? Odd they did not make it more apparent. It makes sense. You don't get a dancer sliding though never having to do ballroom or something out of their comfort ability. I never appreciated hip hop until this show. Well, I didn't know that much about it, really. Now it is my favorite. The lyrical dance last night, the one that made me think of Lion King, was excellent. Ballroom does not do it for me but I loved that waltz because it was different and resembled ballet. I want Mia back. She helps dilute Mary. Benji gets on my nerves. Another Christian virgin flapping about. sigh

Why couldn't Nick come up with a new routine after a whole YEAR? I love watching him dance but I'd already seen that dang routine three times.

I recorded the show tonight but dang it, because it was live it went over and I missed the choice of which guy went home. Down to the last two and the recording stopped. (I will edit the timer and have it end a few minutes over.) So which guy went home? I think I can guess but I want to know for sure. I'll check back later.

Zummat, same thing here. It went over and my recording stopped. I'm hoping it wasn't Stanislauv that was cut.

Of the solos, I thought Allison was OUTSTANDING, head and shoulders above all the rest: she hadn't even choreographed it in advance, either! And she added personality with that cute little ba-bump at the end to the show's offficial ending beats. I chose the same as the judges for the three women. Erin struggled in her pasa doubla, and her solo was weakest of women. Of the men, I was shocked that it was Stanislav going home!!! I really missed seeing him with his real life partner, only consolation. I haven't seen anything of Ivan that would put him in the top 20; the judges must have seen something offscreen that we haven't. He was hands down the weakest dancer last night, and his solo in his specialty field tonight also lacked the punch I thought would redeem him. so I don't really get the decision. Other than that, and the fact they draw things out too much, good show. I liked the glimpses of the dancers last nigth coming off stage.

Oh, noooo!!!! Not Stanislav!!! I thought he showed so much power and gracefulness last night. Of the 3 bottom guys I thought he was the best. I'm really going to miss seeing him.

I hope this isn't going to be another one of those judges vs. voters wars with Stanislav as the first casualty. It felt like the judges were punishing the audience for making them eliminate Erin instead of Ashley, so they fired back by keeping Ivan. I didn't see much of anything in Ivan's solo, either. I guess his partner has more bottom threes to look forward to. Good thing the judges like her. I don't think this show is suited to real ballroom dancers. They spend years dancing with partners and learning moves that don't work well in a solo.

Wow! I guessed wrong. Ivan just doesn't seem the better dancer. Even his solo tonight wasn't all that great. I would have like to have seen what Stanislav could do with the other styles of dancing. Seems a shame that he got eliminated after he did so well last night. Guess no one is really safe when they get to the bottom three.

My Tivo cut off the last minute, as well. Only one can win and Stanislov was not going to make it far. He is a ballroom dancer and his solo illustrated that he is at a loss without a partner. It was terrible. Ed Grimly dances like that. Chad will not make it far either. I like that the judges have the final say as to who goes. It keeps the good dancers in the mix with no chance for a random act of viewer idiocy. That is why we still have to watch the guy with the bob and his partner through at least another round. They were not good. I get it why both Alison and Jamyz (dumb spelling) were in the bottom two. The disco dance, costuming and hair did not make a compelling picture. Not their fault but that all comes into play. They just did not stand out at all. I am going to predict a female winner and it will be down to Donyelle, Martha and Alison. Since they are looking for star quality as well as skill I have to think that Erin's poor nose job may have played a part in her dismissal because she was equal to the other dancer. She wowed them during the auditions. It is unfortunate but her nose is deforming, especially with her hair up.

I pretty much agreed with the judges. I don't think Ivan will be around too much longer either though. Fruit, her nose was distracting, she is a beautiful girl though, I wish her well

I liked Allison's solo too. It is only natural that some would appear more nervous but it does prevent the public from getting to know them. Hopefully, they will become relaxed as they proceed further into the show. Ms. Bat would like us to believe the names that she posted? I dunno. Aren't you the one that sometimes makes up names just to mess with us?

I really loathe it when they purposely run programs over the hour. I thought they were sending Ivan home since they told his partner that he ruined her dance, and kept her.. Bummer.

I thought Ivan should have been the one to go. I saw more style and skill in Stanislav's dance than in anything Ivan did. I wasn't happy with that choice at all. Didn't the judge say they were shocked when he and his partner were in the bottom 3 since they thought they would be top 3? Sheeeesh!

Rosie and Beth, well, Ivan looks like he should be named Chad. It's his damn mothers fault, not mine. /clipart{sly} Watching, Mary was the judge who said that about Stanislov and Erin. Pay her no mind, she has a bias for all ballroom. You can tell she is the ballroom judge, least you forget, if you examine her clothes. She loves see through black nylon sleeves. I can see Martha, Donyelle and Alison in F3.

I was just shocked that Stani's gone. I thought the guy with the hair should've been in the bottom 3.
