I think the blonde they kept showing was Shandi Finnessy - a former Miss USA and contestant. I also think Mark is getting robbed on his scores. Obviously he's not the best, but I think they're really being hard on him.

I enjoyed everyone last night except Floyd (sorry Floyd). I voted for Mark. I really don't understand how he got a lower score than Floyd.

Roxip - I was listening to Kidd Kraddick this morning also (as I do every morning on my way to work). I thought I heard them say that on their website there was video of Kelly at DWTS. I looked but couldn't find anything. Did you happen to hear them say that?

LOL thanks Sherbabe, I get more like my dad everyday calling people the wrong name. Age, what you gonna do? I also meant Sabrina and not "Samantha" in my earlier post. Mark Cuban and "The Donald" have had a long standing fued. I first heard of it when Cuban did his reality show...I won't even try to remember the name of it, but it was during the early years of "The Apprentice" Glad to see I am not alone in wondering whats up with the judges and Mark's scores. Seems "The Donald" has trouble playing well with others...lol

Trump likes to jump on anyone else's bandwagon. I voted for the very first time ever and gave all my votes to Mark. I didn't feel like Jane's defense was argumentative.

Wasn't Mark's show The Benefactor? And since it tanked and didn't even finish its first run you would think the Donald would get over it. I didn't hear that about Kelly and a video (the only video I heard them talking about was the one that Taylor made this morning of the people in the apartment). I forgot she was there and I didn't look for her and I've already erased my DVR. Now I'm gonna have to go and look (and also see if they have any pictures of Kelly's date).

Just stopping in to say I don't like Sabrina at all. I think she is one that has had too much dance training in her life and shouldn't even be on the show. At least I read she attended a dance school...suppose it could be wrong. I agree that Mark Cuban does not get scores to match the performance. Especially when others are noticeably worse. I think it will be Mark or Floyd leaving tonight. Hope it isn't Mark.

The one thing about Mark . . . dancing competition is the whole package, not just the feet. You can tell he's having fun and enjoying the experience -- just look at his face. He gets into the music. The first week or two he was mouthing the words to the songs. He often continues to have a big smile during the dances, sometimes with the tongue coming out of the mouth. Really into it. All that just isn't appropriate for most of the dances. I believe the judges have made comments along those lines.

That is the fun of it, watching people who are not professionals dance and learn each week. I look at Mark and I see he takes everything the judges say and works harder to overcome the criticisms. I think the judges have been unduly harsh with him and I dont get why they want him gone. My problem with people like Marie and Mel B is that they had a leg up, Marie who was on a musical variety show for a few years and Mel who was in a music group which toured. Both in their background have benefitted from choreographers, etc and in my mind they are not non professionals. I will concede that Mariet has been out of the business for a number of years but she has had experience. You take someone like Mark, who has absolutely no dancing experience or musical experience and I give him credit for making the furthest strides. Jane Seymour as well, an actress with no musical background. I dont want to see someone win who had a musical background going into the competition.

Shandi! Now I remember. She was one of the ones who got the boot early on last season. I'm not going to cry bitter tears if the second worst dancer gets cut tonight instead of next week. Just as long as both Floyd and Mark are gone before any of the good dancers. They're both trying really hard, but they're not on the same level as the others as dancers or as "stars." So far I've been very pleased with the order in which contestants have left, and for the most part have been able to predict the judges' scores before they're revealed. But then, I haven't been swept up in all the Mark love that's out there. To me he looked a bit like Frankenstein's monster in those rehearsal shots. Scary eyes. Costacat, what I meant was that Carrie Ann said the criteria for a lift is that the woman couldn't perform the move under her own power. That would apply to those other moves I mentioned. It would've made more sense for her to simply say the woman's feet can't leave the floor at the same time (unless she jumps). Then it could also be argued that if the woman were to hang onto her partner while he spun around, it would be her power lifting her off the floor. Then they'd really have a tough call to make.

Being a Dallas Mavricks basher I was so in to Mark getting the boot from the start, but even I have to admit he deserves to stay tonight, can't believe that Floyd's score was that high. Now that I know Trump is bashing Mark I think I will never again say a bad word about him.

Maris I agree.I just dont think its fair to have some celebs with dance training and some without, all competeing for the same prize.I believe I remember reading that Jane Seymore was trained in ballet as a young girl.And Joey Fatone from last yr,he was in a boy band known for thier smooth moves.

Lake, Jane was a ballerina until 16 when she had some kind of major back injury. Doctors told her it was "devastating" (her word) and that she would never dance again. Seeing as how that was 40 years ago, I think she gets a pass on the "trained dancer" aspect. :-)

I am loving watching Melanie. I love her sense of humor and spirit. And she's a good dancer. Oh and her partner is nice to look at!

Is Wayne still performing in Las Vegas? It's time for him to go . . . . I don't think he should have done that tonight.

So far Sabrina/Mark, Edyta/Cameron, and Kym/Mark are safe. Karina/Floyd in bottom two. Hope they go and we're not in for an upset tonight.

Mark was improved last night. He deserves a break from the dreaded red light.
