Thanks Stacey! And... Geez this was a short "series" wasn't it? I'm sad to see Carrie Ann lose one, cause I still think her team is better than Bruno's. How were their performances tonight?

Very short I wasn't a real close watcher tonight. The theme is Latin night Bruno was very complimentary of one of the Carrie Ann performance. Carrie Ann tried to do the same but wasn't quite as complimentary IMO I felt like the judges either made a pact or were told to do the compliments tonight, seemed weird to me

Okay, I am very confused. When I was watching, Carrie Anne's team and they finished, they got complimented for the dancing and all the dancers thanked Alyssa for her help. I assumed she was a vital part of the team. And then she got taken out. What did I miss?

I am sure this isn't the case, but I got the feeling last night that it was being ended early, like at this point Bruno wasn't going to have anyone left anyhow so might as well end it. Just all seemed odd ot me, though admittedly I only half watched it last night.

Ha Ketchuplover I am/was as confused as you! I don't understand the concept (I get the idea, but not the reasons or purpose) and I am also suspicious like Stacey that they are ending it early. Even Drew looked like he couldn't believe what he was explaining to us and he preferred to focus on the exciting DWTS news! "Nevermind our ridiculous premise, remember DWTS which makes sense!?" Poor Alyssa, she was great and they killed her with that quote in their package. The part where she said she couldn't help everyone all the time because it was a competition too. I noticed she referenced it in her goodbye speech. She's leaving just in time for a team to get a bizarre group recording contract, even though it's called DANCE war, I say good timing!

I guess I now agree with you all... I really don't understand the premise of this show, especially since the finale is next week. Other than the network needed a quick filler so they could put new material on the air during the writers' strike. That said, I still think Carrie Ann's team is the best. Their vocals really do meld together and they sound much better as a "band" (to borrow Bruno's term). I also like the way Carrie Ann's team doesn't use "sex" to sell (every single week, Bruno's costumes are skimpy as all get out, while Carrie Ann's are more conservative). Eye candy is all well and good, but it doesn't a good singer or dancer make. So I hope Team CA wins!

Ginger, I think what you missed was that earlier on they showed CA asking Alyssa to help the other girls with the dancing and her saying to the camera (not to CA) that she had to think of herself. It made her look pretty bad. I kind of think that CA chose that clip in case she had to vote someone off, so that she had a good excuse. It felt like the others were protecting Alyssa when they thanked her after the dance. This show was always going to be just six weeks. The winning team gets a recording contract to be a pop group, and originally it said the team would open for some mystery person or group on their next tour. Don't know if that's still happening. Bruno and CA will start DWTS in just over a month so I assumed that was why this show was so short.

Well, I thought CA's group was much better than Bruno's. CA was right. It's really hard to stage a group number with only 4 people. That said, I didn't think they were that great. I actually FF'd through one of their numbers, I was so bored. I was shocked that CA had to eliminate one of her group, but was pretty sure it would be Alyssa. Did you see how pissed off Alyssa was that she was cut? When Chris tried to hug her, she pretty much blocked him with her right arm. No tears from her, so I think she wasn't surprised. CA cried enough for everyone. Did anyone else think that HS Musical thing was terrible? It truly did seem like a HS musical. I had to FF through it, too. I guess you have to be 12. I thought Bradley deserved to stay. He really helped his team (without complaining about it), and he does have more dance training than some of the rest. He's not the strongest singer, tho.

Yes I also fast-forwarded through the high school musical thing! I also noticed they were calling it the road tour or something, as in, "not any of the original actors who your children love." To each their own, I guess.

I figured there was no way Bruno's team would lose for a third straight time and expect he'll "win" again next week.. whatever. I have found that this show has made me really dislike Bruno (previously on DWTS he was just annoying) and really like Carrie Anne a bunch. I join in thinking the show concept just doesn't make sense, this way of taking down the teams, having the trainers or team leaders also critique, etc.

It is a very confusing show, but overall, I've enjoyed it--especially since there's been nothing else on Monday nights! I'm looking forward to a new season of DWTS. And yes, Bruno was pretty annoying on this show. I wonder if that's why they lost so many times? Maybe people are voting against Bruno, rather than for Carri Ann's Team?

I still like Bruno more than Carrie-Ann, but he's gone down in my estimation.

Wow, you can tell with all the chatter today that this is one popular show. I'll be so glad it'll be out of its misery in a few hours.

OMG OMG OMG tonight's the life changing finale. The DWTS cast will be revealed at the end of the show. That's my prediction. Also Team Carrie Ann will win imo.

lol OG looking for some 'closure,' then will put this strange endeavor out of my mind forever my only hope for tonite is that Bruno doesn't do anything to permanently damage my perception of him so I can still enjoy him on DWTS (tho I will still probably view him differently, sadly)

Could someone do me a favour and, when they reveal it, post the cast of the next DWTS in the DWTS thread please? I don't want to read this thread yet as I don't want to be spoiled. Thank you!!

As much as I didn't "get" this show, though I watched and never voted, quite the shocking outcome. Team Bruno wins.
