Roxip...this is one of my fave websites. All the videos of all three seasons. Pro demos and everything. And he updates immediately.

Fiat, I am with you on Louis' dancing and choreography. He's a great mover on the dancefloor and his dances were very daring.

Joey and Edyta's final score was a 30, Regee. They all had 59 out of 60 tonight.

I am thinking that Emmitt will get the boot tomorrow but so HOPING it's Mario that goes instead. Both Emmitt and Joey are so humble and both very good and much improved dancers. Mario still struts around like the winner. Can't say that I like his attitude.

What a cop out: the judges giving each pair 59 out of 60 points! Emmit and Joey were really lackluster in their latin dances, but the judges awarded them all tens. Come on! That was all preplanned so that the judges scores don't count and the audience vote makes the decision. And if Joey was to get three tens for anything, it should have been for his quickstep. Mario was brilliant.

Allie...why do you think Emmitt will go? The judges clearly left it up to the fans and I think Emmitt has A LOT. And tonight I started to vote at 8:30 when the show started for Emmitt and didn't get through at all until I got one through just now (10:30).

Again, like I say every week, Mario makes me want to throw up. I can't even tell if his dancing was good bc I can't stand anything about him. Love Emmitt and Cheryl. I love Joeys attitude but his dancing always leaves me a little cold.

And even though I am no Mario fan, he got a 6 from Len for breaking his tango hold weeks ago, and Len gives Joey a 10 for breaking his quickstep hold??? These judges are completely pointless. Why do they even give scores??

Oh and Mario's cha cha?? SO not a cha cha...I saw almost no cha cha in it. Which Len also comments on and gives it a 9? How can you give a cha cha a 9 when you just said it wasn't even a cha cha?? What the hell?!?!?

My prediction: Joey will leave.
My dream: Mario will leave.

Mario is definitely the most polished dancer. With that being said, I usually root for the underdogs. In this case that seems to be Joey and Edyta. So personally I'd rather see Joey or Emmitt win next week.

Alliet, I agree with your last post 100%. Felt like I was seeing my exact thoughts in writing! ;)

I suspect there are more Cowboy fans than 49er fans. Look how well Jerry Rice did in the final last year. I'm even voting for Emmit and I'm a die-hard 49er fan.
I predict that Emmit will win it. If either Joey or Mario goes, I think Emmit will get the votes of whoever leaves.

Call me biased but I am much more entertained by Emmitt's dances than any other. Mario is very good but Emmitt is having fun and it shows. Joey is okay but it just doesn't seem as natural on him.

So, like Chula Vista is just down the road from San Diego (heading to the Mexican border). And so, like, I never heard that CV was proclaiming Mario Lopez Day! I guess DWTS and Mario ain't newsworthy here! :-)

Go Emmit! He's so much fun to watch. When he smiles he lights up the room.

I think Mario and Emmit will be the final two. Mario is a really good dancer but I like Emmit's personality on the dance floor better.

This is the first year I've watched this show and there are two things that bug me about it.

1. I don't like Edyta's costumes at all.

2. The dumb questions asked when they are waiting for their scores. Like tonight when Emmit was asked, "How do you think the couple leaving Wed. will feel?" I know what I would have said only it would have been bleeped out. I think the stars have handled these stupid questions quite well.

Chalupa, I HOPE Emmitt doesn't go but I have a feeling he's not as popular as the other two remaining men. I really WISH it would be Mario leaving. I have never voted on this show but I did try tonight (for Emmitt) and couldn't get through so came online to vote instead. Still had problems voting online (for Emmitt and Joey). Just now I was able to vote several times each for both Emmitt and Joey. I didn't think the female judge was going to give anyone but her golden boy (Mario) a 10 ever.

Exactly, Mario's cha cha was a Michael Jackson immitation. Not something many people aspire to these days, is it. And yet he still got 2 10s and a 9 when it was so far removed from the actual latin dance it may as well not have been danced. UGH.

I have to agree on Edyta's outfits. They are barely more than a bikini and a strip of fabric strategically taped on. Did anyone else notice her grasping for her breasts at the end of the second dance tonight. She appeared to think they were going to fall out. DH seems to enjoy the outfits, though LOL He wanted ME to call in for Emmitt (he's a longtime staunch Cowboys fan) but he couldn't be bothered to do the calling and went to bed. I tried a few times then gave up. Won't be MY fault if Emmitt doesn't make it tomorrow, I'll be sure to mention that to DH.

Aw, sounds like the consensus is leaning towards Joey leaving when it should be Mario. Arghhhh.

Joey at Disneyland-does anyone else think that is just the perfect place for him. He's like a child in his wonderment at times. He tries so hard. In any other year, he might have gone all the way to the final 2. In dancing, Joey tries so hard but doesn't seem to be enjoying the moment until he's done and has some validation. But, he always seems to be true to the character of the dance.

In Mario's dances, always seems so intense. One thing that bugs me is that his chin always looks pushed out, like when cartoons show people ballroom dancing. Tonight, I really noticed it more than normal. Mario appears to to try to be perfect, then adds things like the Michael Jackson tribute that doesn't make much sense in the overall dance. I was glad that Carey Ann mentioned that it took away from the dance. I agreed.

Emmit makes the difficult look easy. As I watch him, I think that I could possibly do that dance. He just shows joy in every step he makes. Loved his cha-cha. Loved the shirt without sleeves (wow, nice arms). Not a big waltz fan, so I'll take the judges word on how well that was done. His stretch at the end looked really nice. I just smile while watching him.

So, where do I stand? I think that Mario and Emmit will make the final 2. I would like to see Joey there instead of Mario, but I just don't think he will have the votes.

Allowing Mario to do a freestyle next week is a little scary for me. Who knows what that will look like. For Emmit, I have every confidence that Cheryl will have a great routine planned. Who can forget the Cowboy routine last year with Drew?

Assuming that Joey leaves this week, I think Emmit will pickup more of the Joey votes than Mario. So, in my book, Emmit should win. Anyway, I hope so.

Oh and it took me quite awhile to get my votes in for Emmit. I had to try for about 20 minutes just to get my first vote in.
