What happened to Chris? I missed the first half of the show. Did he get injured or just kicked off? Rachel's act was kind of stupid. I expected lower than 6's too.

Shel, he took a bad fall on that same arm and broke it again. His doctor said he needed to quit. I missed the last part of the show, but I recorded it. I'll have to go back and watch what Rachel did. There was just so much tension.

I haven't watched it yet (and I can't believe I tivo'd it) lol but I'm glad Chris is gone..why does he torture himself so badly for some $$? I'll never understand and don't get me started on Rachel Hunter.

If the Ty Murray Celeb Bull Riding show is done again, I bet Chris Knight will be on. That'll be "fun" for him. After the injuries to Stephen Baldwin and Frankie Quinn, I'm sure Chris will be begging to be on that one.

You know, after I went back and saw Rachel's segment I felt I should retract my earlier statement. Even though her act wasn't perfect, she did manage to lighten up the mood and get the audience laughing. She looked like she was having fun, and I appreciate the fact that she tried to do something completely different. I wish some of the others would've branched out a bit more. After watching the replay of Chris falling, it really surprises me that those harnesses they wear don't guarantee safety.

Chris was the only reason I watched (and Louie Spence), I am SO DISAPPOINTED that he's gone, but that was a terrible fall, poor guy. He's so cute, glad we got to enjoy him for a few episodes. I was cringing during Antonio's performance... it looked SO HARD and then they dogged him. Yeah, this show doesn't look fun at all. I do notice Aurelia is lightening up a bit though. I guess I'll hafta root for Wee Man now...

I can't get excited about Wee Man. I thought he should've been gone first. I know he has limitations, but I never found his performances entertaining. The only part I liked was the one trick last week when he was holding up the big guy. I thought it was odd that the rest of the routine was the big guy holding him up. Where's the trick in that? I'm glad Stacy's friend told her how she was coming across as a sourpuss. She was all smiles this time. I'm just disappointed that she never tried anything other than spinning in the air. She's great at it, but variety would've been nice. Not sure if I care who wins. This show might've been a bit more fun with more star power and no eliminations. That's what was great about "Circus of the Stars."

Just watched last weeks episode where Chris K. left the show. I still have this weeks to watch but wanted to say... Was it just me or did anyone find Wee-man's act a little.....odd. (Oops...didn't mean the 'little' to be in reference to Wee-man..lol) The act with him balancing on that big guy and vice versa I just found really creepy. I can't pinpoint why but it just didn't feel right. I was impressed W-M could lift that big guy though! I laughed when the little dog came running out with the bull horns. I was really expecting a live bull because of the footage shown before the act. I felt she could have given her 'O-lay!' (sp??) a little more SNAP. Also, nobody mentioned from the week before about the female judges comment to Antonio,"Where is the sexy guy?" If that was a woman and the judge a man I'm sure there would have been more outrage. He really gave it to her this past week,"I"m doing this for me, not for you." He was really hating on her. I think the female judge is a bit jealous of Stacy. Stacy is a natural, so athletic and flexible.

I doubt that judge is jealous of any of them. She can probably perform rings around all of them and is likely also a natural athlete. She's the expert of the three when it comes to the circus, which is probably why she's the hardest to impress. I think she just forgets at times that these people don't have the years of experience to help them out. While I disagreed with her, I don't think her comment about sexiness is much different than comments I've heard directed at females on DWTS from Bruno. The pole number was impressive, and should've been appreciated for what it was instead of criticized for lack of sexiness. It's the circus, which is usually meant for children. However, the wheel thing he did the following week really was a bit flat since he just repeated the same trick over and over. I think Antonio overreacted a bit to the point of creating an awkward and tense atmosphere, but he seemed to be still sore about the previous week's comment. The Wee Man thing was just kind of odd to me because most of it involved a very strong man lifting a very small man. For that they got a perfect score. Yeah, there was one impressive trick in it, but that was all. I have a feeling Wee Man must have some hard core fans who keep voting for him every week. He may win this.

Oh, I'm sure the female judge can do circles around Stacey but considering how short a time Stacey had to learn it, I think she would out-do the judge if she had a year to do it, maybe even 6 months. lol Just my opinion. I agree Curlyq, Antonio did overreact but I also feel he was still sore about the sexy comment from the week before. I was surprised about the score for W-M too. I think the difficulty was balancing in a handstand and lifting him up. I still didn't enjoy it because of the creepy factor. Still was impressed he could lift the guy though. You're right though, I do think Wee Man might win this. My prediction is it'll be Wee Man or Stacey.

Nobody covered the finale? Antonio won, Stacey secone, Little Man third.
