Mark left with class. Loved the experience, lost 30+ pounds. Next week starts the couples doing 2 dances a week.

Good show. I'm not a big fan of Jennifer Lopez, but that second number was really good and I give her credit for singing live even while dancing. I liked Mel and Maks' performance better tonight than last night. Okay, I'm starting to see what people are complaining about with Samantha. She's a sweet girl and I like her, but she has some really awkward moments sometimes. The interview with Mel and Maks is a good example. Today was the first time I realized Jane has two different colored eyes. Pretty wild. Seattlemom, the link to the video I was laughing at is here: Dancing With the Starved 2 She said she got the idea when she realized all the female contestants left have had dolls made in their image. That's the sequel to the first one she did with just her own doll. The first one is here: Dancing With the Starved She's also keeping a blog at QVC about the show, and I think she'll be appearing on QVC tomorrow with Jonathan. Yikes! The schedule shows her at 5 a.m. Eastern time and also at 4 p.m. They might've canceled that early morning show, though. Her blog is here: Marie Osmond's QVC blog

Well, so much for secrecy. . . .Our today's Seattle Times, on page C3, has a little Q & A section with Marie Osmond. A couple of paragraphs into the article is says: Before Monday's incident, Osmond, who turned 48 this month, chatted by phone en route to Tuesday's results show (in which Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban was ejected). Oops! Someone let the cat out! Also, in reference to the rumor of Cheetah girl being a trained dancer - Q: The chance of public humiliation is so great on a show like this. Does it get to you? A: Only if you let it. Except for (Cheetah Girls') Sabrina Bryan, the rest of us aren't trained dancers, so, yeah it's been tough. IMHO, I have always felt it is not quite so fair when someone has more training in dance than the rest of the contestants. This is why Cheetah Girl does not sweep me away each week.

So, was tonight's show not live? (I only ask, since it was mentioned that Mark was leaving in the interview Rvon posted.)

I thought all of the shows were "live", but I cannot figure out how it got in my morning newspaper. What is the point of all of the phone and computer voting if they already know who is going home? I don't understand at all.

The shows are live, but before the show airs, the producers already know who's gonna leave. I have a favor to ask. I see that Mark and Kym are gone. But, due to the major wildfires down here, there has been no prime time TV at all (it's all news coverage of the fires). So I don't have to read back (I don't have time what with all that's going on here), can someone please give me a quick synopsis of what happened Monday night? Who did well? Who didn't? Thanks!! This San Diegan really appreciates it!

But the good thing about DWTS...just because Sabrina is the best dancer and may or may not have extensive professional dance training doesn't mean she will win the show. After all, viewer voting accounts for 50% of the total supposedly. Let's face it, Mario was a better dancer than Emmit, but Emmit had more personality and a much larger fan base. (And I voted for him so I'm not saying that to be mean.) Being the best dancer does not insure you the title. So if the fact that Sabrina is too good and it is unfair bothers people they should vote with their fingers. I'm not a fan of hers so I doubt I would vote for her anyway, but that would also depend on who was her competition. Sometimes I just don't vote.

I was looking at Sabrina's bios yesterday. She has formal training in ballet, tap and hip hop. It doesn't make me like her less, she still trains as hard as the others. I think Mark was the right one to go this week, but next week's going to be tricky with no obvious weaker link. Costacat: Mark & Kym: he dressed as a geek and she as the genie from that 60s tv show. It was entertaining but low on technique. Cameron & Edyta: Sexy Helio & Julienne: overtly sexy but looked too much like acting, no chemistry Jane & Tony: elegant Jenni & Derek: good Marie & Jonathon: ok, but afterwards she fainted. Is ok now, says she faints every now and again if she doesn't breathe properly. They got the lowest marks. Melanie & Maksim: great, got 10 9 10 Sabrina & Mark: sexy, got 9 9 10 (ok, just realised how incredibly difficult it is to describe a dance in a couple of words!)

Rvon, voting ends half an hour after each show, so the producers would know from about 9.30pm onwards, PT. Not sure when the papers go to press these days of better technology, but "in the old days" I think it was 2 or 3am - well after voting has finished. Still, someone leaked it who shouldn't!!

Costa, aren't the episodes of DWTS available online? Of course you said you were busy, and you might be dodging flames, but if you want to go back and see them that might be a resources. Or you could go to youtube...you can usually pull up individual performances there.

The website says Phone lines, text votes (AT&T customers only) and online polls will open at the top of each Monday night performance show so that viewers can vote for their favorites. Phone lines will stay open for 30 minutes after the end of the show. Online voting will remain open until noon (Eastern Time) on the day of the results show.*

Here's a link to the Seattle Times interview dated October 23 and she's doing the interview on the way to "last week's results show (in which boxer Floyd Mayweather was ejected). So there was no leak. The reference to Sabrina being a trained dancer is also in the article. http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=marieosmond23&date=20071023&query=marie+osmond

Didn't know online voting was open the next day! I watch the show online the next morning (too much on tv Monday night) and always thought I couldn't vote. Curious then about the paper - was it an evening edition? Or maybe an educated guess after someone leaked the phone figures. I'm not a big conspiracy person, as I'm sure some of you know ;). (Aurora, it sounds like Rvon has the paper version and the text has been edited since the online version.)

No, nothing was edited. The article in the Seattle paper was taken from the Minneapolis Star Tribune article of Oct. 20th written by Neal Justin. You can see his byline in the Seattle article. When I read this thread today I thought it sounded familiar so looked through my papers. http://www.startribune.com/1706/story/1494149.html

Maybe I misread Rvon's original post, I thought she said she had a paper version (not electronic) that was printed Tuesday morning and revealed this Tuesday night's (Mark Cuban's ejection) results before the polls should have offically closed.
