It will be a shame if Jerry Rice gets sent home while master P stays!!!

Too bad the voting is all screwed up, they thought they solved the problem from last season by limiting each phone to ten votes and only one vote per computer, and now they have a bunch of "kids" screwing with the performances.

Too sad, that hard work and effort are no longer rewarded.

Well I had never heard of votefortheworst.com until now so I just checked out their site. Having worked with middle & high school kids for years, I can see how that philosophy would appeal to them. A new sport. I guess they could be doing worse things.... :-)

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to stop feeling frustrated & accept the fact that this new craze will keep these sad contestants on...I'll try to look past it and enjoy the good ones while they last.

Here's hoping the voting system will change next year.

Okay, that votefortheworst philosophy is the most moronic thing I've ever read. They're trying to punish the tv producers for keeping some good talent off the show by causing even more talented people to lose. Brilliant plan, geniuses. What 3rd grader thought that up? Somebody whose family member couldn't make the cut?

To those who think it would be better to give the judges the final say, remember that they gave Kelly Monaco straight 10's for an obviously flawed performance just because it was the last dance of the series. Not to mention how they penalized Joey and Ashly for a perfectly legal open foxtrot while giving high marks to Kelly and Alec for a samba that was supposed to be a paso doble. This thing with P is like their karma biting them in the butt. Too bad the rest of us are suffering as well.

I hope Elisabeth on The View now realizes what a fool she's been for campaigning for him on the basis that poor little P just isn't as experienced as the others. Knowing that he's got a bunch of people willing to vote for him, he should be busting his butt rehearsing 6 hours a day instead of 5 hours a week. As long as we're going to be stuck with him he could at least try to give us a good show.

Although I'd like P gone, too, I do think the voting system here is not nearly as destructive as on AI. They allow you 7 votes -- and when I tried to call in more than 7, I got a "Thanks but you're at your limit" message. That effectively stymies those automatic call programs.

Still crossing my fingers that P will be saying buh-bye tonight!

Woohoo!

I liked the idea of a closing interview and retrospective for the departing team. They should've done that from the beginning, and I hope they continue it along with the encore performance. It's better watching the favorite routine one more time than seeing all of them replayed in their entirety.

I sure hope Tia can get more calls next week. You're usually allowed the same number of calls as there are teams. Like next week you'll be allowed 6 calls.

Bring back Giselle and let the contest truly begin. (Am I forgetting anyone else other than Tatum?)

Now we can start having a real dance contest.

Lisa's the dark horse...let's see Stacy dance something where she really has use her legs.

Oh and one more thing about her legs...they're just like every other woman or man out there...they go all the way from the ground...up to her butt.

Well all I can say is, FINALLY!!!!!! I didn't think Tia belonged at 2nd to the bottom nor did the judges. Obviously, she needs some fan votes! I tried to call last night and I either got a busy signal or some weird female voice telling me to place my call later. That was before AND after the show ended and I tried to vote for 3 different people and couldn't get pushed through.

This is going to end up a dance-off between Drew and Lisa or Drew and Stacey. As much as I find her lips distracting, I'm hoping it's Lisa vs. Drew. She's just trying SO HARD and doesn't have the advantage Stacey has of dancing previously. BTW - Lisa lips were far less distracting last night and tonight with the light colored lipstick. She should stick with it. :-)

I honestly can't believe Tia was in the bottom two and not he gimpy old man with the painted on eyebrows. What's up with that? He can barely move, let alone dance.

Tish, I feel like we are buddies in a lot of things, so could you please stop pickin on poor old George Hamilton?

Check it out...the dude is OLD, WAY OLD.. He is at least in his 70's. So how about cutting the very handsome old dude some slack. I'm pretty sure he will be the next to go. Then we'll have a real horse-race.

Cripes! My Mom had massive strokes at 70, just 11 yrs ago. I had no idea GH was getting up there, no WONDER he's moving slower than some of the others! But he's putting on a heck of a show IMHO. Thanks for the info.

I've been trying to vote for underdogs Giselle & then Tia (in an attempt to unload the "Lazy P". I was thinking all the seniors would be calling/pulling up George Hamilton with his funny but definite gift of gab).

When you compare Hamilton's moves around the dance floor to P's "Stand-While-The-Pretty-Girl-Swirls-Around-Herman-Munster" routine...jeepers there's no comparison! Hamilton looks like a regular Fred Astaire in comparison!!!

Plus, I would rather see dyed eyebrows any day to a dumbfounded, not-sure-what-I'm-doing-here type of facade. Last show, Ashly (normally all smiles and bubbly) wasn't even pretending to do the phone-in gestures or looking like she wanted the voters to keep them. She's a dancing competitor and probably not wishing a "Pity Vote" to keep her in a contest where she knew for a few weeks her "team" didn't belong. Bad for business.

I'll start picking up the phone and giving Hamilton some credit/votes. I did enjoy Hamilton's Beverly Hills 'Hood comments and especially Tia's comments about belonging to a Longer-time 'Hood (called MotherHOOD) last week.

But now that P is gone, perhaps the voting won't need to be quite so erratic. Judges have been shocked to see what their OWN goofy scoring can produce so maybe they will be a little more careful to exhibit some fairplay. The shockvalue voteforzaworst children will probably lose interest in voting now.

Maybe there's time to turn this into a fairer contest. I hope so. Bisc

I typed George Hamilton into the address on my IE and found this:
Wikipedia: Description of George Hamilton (actor)
'George Hamilton' (born August 12, 1939) is an United States film and television actor, probably better known for his perpetual sun tanning than for his performance ...
So he would be 66 years old if the info. is correct.

Did anyone else notice Alana Stewart (George Hamilton's ex and Rob Stewart's ex too) in the audience Thursday? I have seen both on talk shows and it seems like they have a bette divorce than marriage and are pretty good friends now.

Hallelujah Master P is gone! I felt such relief when they called his name and thought "this will finally be a real dance contest now", it truly was cruel to him, and to Ashly, to make him continue on the show when he so obviously did not truly want to be there and was not putting forth any real effort to stay.

As for Mr Gorgeous Hamilton, I still look at him and see a young, virile, handsome, Brown University senior wooing a young girl in Where The Boys Are. So what if he's 66, I'm 50 and I'm still a spring chicken. His dances are entertaining, and make me laugh and smile with his characters.

On the other hand, I'd dearly love to see Stacy and Tia do some of the dances that Lisa has been doing. Let's face it, anybody can swoop and turn doing a waltz, a fox trot...it takes real talent to get out there and do the faster Latin dances and Lisa has stepped up and found her niche.

Drew is a true showman, but as I told my hubby, he does have an unfair advantage over the other men having been a part of a "Boy Band" and a great part of their performances is...dancing and choreography, so he's used to the drilling and learning steps.

I think Jerry Rice shows a lot of grace for such a big man. I honestly thought he'd be a joke, like Evander Holyfield last year, but he's really surprised me!

This is gonna get interesting now!!!

George Hamilton is a delightful man, a wonderful actor, and he was a wonderful dancer in his day so stop calling him a "gimpy old man with the painted on eyebrows", Tish. Take it back! LOL!!

Oh, and thanks, Nick, for explaining Stacy's anatomy...I was quite certain that those legs of hers went straight up to her ears!

i noticed that too, about lisa's lips. without lip liner and dark lipstick, she looked human.

while i was sort of glad that P was finally voted out, i'm going to miss him. i really thought his jive was the best for him. but if they could just bring him back as entertainment (a la the cat whatever they are supposed to be), that would be nice. even have him as a judge. i'm nuts, but i am going to miss him.
