Hok went out with class and flair!

It was so obvious Mary didn't want Anya to go. I still don't get it. Maybe Mary knows what Anya's done in ballroom and is so blinded that she can't see the reality in being "versatile" (as Nigel so often throws at us).

I really would've preferred to see Danny go. While he's technically a great dancer and I do love watching him leap across the stage, he leaves me cold. (Whereas on the other end of the spectrum, Lacey's antics and hamming just irritate the heck out of me.)

I'm really glad, however, that two "b's" are still in it (Dominick and Sara). That's pretty impressive considering the skill level this season.

And I'm really REALLY glad Jaimie is still in it. I do think she is a wonderful dancer, and I feel her when she dances. She's very expressive with her body, and she has the most exquisite lines and control.

Costacat - Agree totally about Jaimie. While the women, especially now Anya is gone, are all very good she's starting to rise to the top as maybe the best of the group. As you said, her lines and control are just something to behold. Would not be a bit surprised, or disappointed, to see her win the whole thing.

You know what else I like about this show? That the women are strong and fit. They have big legs like me. They have curves like me. But they are athletes and graceful and healthy.

Just read at the TV Guide site that Anya and Hok are the alternates for the tour. Great article in the interview section. Pasha didn't even want to try out. Six months before, he had a blood clot in his neck and they had to give him drugs to disolve it. He was tired and didn't dance for a time but he went to the tryout to support Anya. The producers asked him to try out and he did. He admitted to Mary that it was the best thing he could have done. Mary stated that he and Anya are wonderful to be with in the ballroom arena. She says that ballroom dancers can be egotistical but that Pasha and Anya are not. So, she knew Pasha and Anya before the show. No wonder she's lobbied for Anya to stay.

Anyone else find it odd how Nigel mentions that Denise Wall is Jaimie's teacher but not Travis' and Danny's mother?


That is exactly what I said when I was in chat last night. Plus, they didn't point her out with Danny, who is her adopted son. Plus, she was stuffed in the middle of the audience. Unlike other prominent family members (who have a scrolling sign) who have what seems like front-row seats.

I also read the forums at TWoP forums, but it is hard to wade through the posts sometime.

I want Neil and Jaime to win

Yeah.. Neil is my favorite guy. I think that Danny is phenomenal but Neil seems to be able to do everything he can do and then some.

Jaimie has been one of my faves from the beginning. I would be happy with either her or Lacey winning (of the girls). I adore Jaimie's personality but Lacey seems likeable too imo, even though I didn't warm to her as quickly.

It's funny, though... Dom & Sabra have such a magical partnership that last week I felt more compelled to vote for them than anyone. When Dom did that lift where Sabra was in the splits above his head, the way that she smiled at the audience was so touching, I wanted to give her a trophy right then and there.

I also think that Lauren and Neil are great together. I usually vote for Lacey and Kameron but felt that L & N were more deserving this week. It seemed like Nigel & Mary were searching for superficial ways to talk them down.

Would love to see Jaimie paired with Pasha.

bye Hok!

Hok is going to be fine....I think he has a great career ahead of him. He is a great entertainer. I was thinking the other night during the Broadway number that I could see him dancing there. I think he has a magnetism that would come across well. And now he has a fan following, which would help.

Beth, sorry about your dad and brother. I hope they are feeling better!

Only "official" website I have found so far for Hok is at MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/hok

Trying to think who I still care about (very hard, because every week I enjoyed others, but just waited for Hok): Pasha definitely, and Dominic of the guys; Lacey and probably Jaimie of the women.

Thanks for the link, Ladytex!

I hope he stays here in USA rather than return to Japan so we do get a chance to see him at some point!

I have always liked Anya. Her face was so expressive when she danced that you knew she really felt the dance and was committed to it. I am sad to see that she is gone. I thought her solo dance the other night was one of the best that she has done. I felt Lauren's was the weakest solo. I will however enjoy seeing Danny and Jaime dance. With both of their lines and extensions, it should be pretty great unless of course they get hip hop where their moves need to be sharper and quicker

Danny won't necessarily be paired up with Jamie. Remember they are randomly choosing couples now starting this week. I would have loved to see Danny and Shauna myself, but oh well.

Word is, They will dance as a couple and do a solo. Looks like we will be voting on the individual, not the pair.

Do you mean that Jaime and Danny will be dancing together? They will be in the bottom 3, and they will dance solos?

I'm not going to put this into a spoiler, because Danny and Jaime being in the bottom 3 is complete and pure speculation unless you already know how America is going to vote?

I'm assuming Darrellh was saying that this week there'll be couples dances and solos but we'll be voting for each as an individual, not as a pair.
Which is what they've done every year, so that's not really a spoiler.

I should probably be watching this since it's on right now LOL

i don't seem to remember them each dancing the same routine last year--did they? I kind of like it though--gives a better comparison.

I don't really like the solo routine. But it is improved by watching them put their spin on it.

OK....I'll say it...at least for us....we did not like this show. None of the routines were great though Danny probably was the best solo male and the routine seemed to fit his attitude well. Sabra was, in our view, certainly the best female and, along with Danny, were clearly the cream of a not so entertaining show. The disco was maybe the best couple for us but not fantastic. The solos were boring after a bit. Did not see the same as the judges, especially when it came to Kameron and Lauren. It was almost like we saw a completely different show than the judges. Maybe this just wasn't our night.....

I agree. I like the idea of having the same solo so you can compare the dancers, but do it later on when there are not so many of them. It became too repetitive, and the dancers all began to blend together. Sabra and Lauren were my favorites. Very disappointed in Jaimie tonight - expect she'll be in the bottom.
