Jason stumbles but he gets two 10's? I thought 10 was perfect?

Louis' mouth is the reason why I can't stand watching him dance. He does the facial expression thing too, almost like he's getting boinked on the dance floor, and it drives me bats.

I thought that about Priscilla's expression last week, and commented on it here, too. Of course she can maintain that expression thru the whole dance! (I really hate how she's had so much surgery she doesn't look her age, yet we all know how old she is so why doesn't she just accept it gracefully? Grrr...)

Heehee Pamy! Sorry, hon, but that's what I think every time I see him. Either that, or he's just been goosed. Take your pick! :-)


How WAS Carrie Ann when giving Marissa her scores? Did she apologize for being such a witch last week?

I can't for the life of me understand where they came up with these scores tonight. Both Mario and Cristian were better than Jason, and yet he gets the 10's. Is this the special treatment for football players thing again?

I didn't understand all the emotion over Marlee's performance, either. It was okay, but it didn't move me.

Shannon is doing great, and Marissa was much better this week.

I personally don't get the fuss about Priscilla's face. If she wants to have procedures to feel better about what she sees in the mirror, what do I care as long as I'm not paying for it? I doubt she's trying to fool anyone, but just did it to make herself happy. I dye my gray hair because when I see it growing out it actually makes me feel tired and sluggish. I can only imagine how I'd feel if my face started drooping. I wouldn't have surgery, but if they came up with a nice, affordable pill to tighten it back up I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I also don't understand the high scores for Jason...I was totally baffled, especially with the stumble.

I am so sorry I missed Kristi; I tuned in just a few minutes too late :-(

Curlyq, it's not so much that she did it, but it's the results. She's suing, so I don't think she's too happy with what she sees in the mirror. Most can understand why.

Jason was stiff, I can't see how he deserved 10s. Were they just watching Edyta?

I like Mario but he seemed a bit manic. Adam's unicycling was good but dancing... not so much. Kristy was excellent (but scores less than Jason?!?!). Loved Marlee tonight too.

Yet to see the rest...

Loved Shannon Elizabeth! Christian was much much better than normal too. Not sure of Marissa's top but she was great. Wonderfully dramatic.

I hope it's Adam's turn to leave this week. All the others really upped their game (except Kristi, who's so far up there anyway!).

Did Mel B do as well as Kristi early on last season? Ultimately they were both very good. Judges criticize Kristi that she's the same in all her dances. I think I'd agree. I'd rather watch Mel B dance than Kristi.

I don't remember Mel B doing so well early on, but I could be wrong. I think in the early weeks she was in the bottom two occasionally, wasn't she?? She always had the timing but had to work on the physicality (if that's the right word). Kristi's perfect in both right from the outset. She just needs to put more expression in it, her face can be a bit mask-like.

I haven't given Shannon much of a thought before tonight but I absolutely loved her dance, her hair, her dress. It just all seemed to gel and the dancing was so graceful....sort of dream-like.

I just hope Kristi doesnt get the Chetah girl curse! Remember last season she danced with same guy and judges raved and raved, she was great. She went home very early. I almost think voters feel they dont have to vote for the ones the judges fawn over and wont be surprised if Kristi goes early

I have to admit, I got choked up at Marlee's dance too.

I'm watching this now, and I as much as I like Adam, his dance was a total joke and almost insulting. Almost the first 30 seconds wasn't even dancing! He absolutely deserved those scores and I hope he goes home this week.

I loved Kristi's dance... she is technically as good as the female pros. Mel B was eclipsed early on by Sabrina. Once Sabrina was voted out, Mel B really started to shine. She wasn't as good as Kristi in the beginning weeks. Kristi's dance last night had some really intricate footwork, and I don't recall any stars in any season doing such intricate and fast dancing this early on.

<55> Priscilla is suing her Argentinian plastic surgeon for using motor grade products in her face, rather than medical grade. Her face did not suffer (as of yet) because of the procedure. But she is part of the lawsuit against this "doctor" for using products he had no business using. (There were a few women who WERE disfigured; she was not one of them.) Also, I do not have a problem with plastic surgery. I have a problem with the results of her surgery. I'm not sure how she can express emotion when the only thing that moves are her eyelids and jaw.

I'm not even halway thru yet, so will pay special attention to Jason's dance. I can't believe he got a 10 if he stumbled. If it was that obvious, then something hinky is going on somewhere, yes? :-)

Cristian is hot, hot, HOT!!! I don't even remember the dance, just that' he's hot!!

Jason... not impressed. Didn't think he deserved those 10's he got. Also not much impressed with Marlee's dance.

Love Shannon and Derek. And watching him tonight I realized why I like him so much... he doesn't adopt those weird facial affectations that a lot of pros do (like Louis and Mark). He looks into his partner's eyes and he smiles. That's all he needs to do. A great connection between those two.

I loved Marissa's dance. I thought Shannon was ok. I missed Marlee's dance though.

I thought Jason's score was wrong too. Yes he's gorgeous and for such a big guy he moves really well, but he had an obvious stumble. He should have been scored accordingly.

I thought Kristi did very well and she and Jason's scored were tied, by the way. I wonder if part of the problem with her expression is that she's Asian, and their faces are just naturally enigmatic. I like her so much more during her interview sessions...I think the exaggerated makeup works against her in the performance session.

I thought Christian, Shannon and Mario were all good last night too.

I thought Marlee's dance was beautiful and emotional, but I still don't feel she's a great dancer. A better than good dancer, but not great. I also think that Priscilla's scores are a little high for her ability too. I thought Marissa did a lot better last night and was able to restrain herself from being too silly until after the dance.

Is Adam trying to get kicked off? He certainly didn't put in much effort last night. I hope he goes tonight.

I thought Marissa did a good job last night, too. I wish I could remember their scores. Did Marissa, Marlee, and Priscilla get the same scores?

I really do hope Adam goes tonight. After watching how hard some of the others worked and how well they did, the 30 seconds of "intro" was a total insult (at least his scores showed it).

Were they just watching Edyta?

Edyta's dancing and choreography were spectacular (her personal best on DWTS, ever, imo). I can see giving the overall performance a 10. But has any contestant on DWTS *ever* gotten a 10 after stumbling?

I am really scratching my head this season.

Loved Mario. Can anyone explain to me why he didn't get 10s, or even close? What's the deal with Len? Gives Mario the same score as Adam??

And frankly, I thought Adam was robbed (6's). He was really dancing out there.

The only thing about Kristi is that she's already done steps like these, only on ice. I think this show is total cakewalk for her. I think she's coming in as a pro--guess that's fair if they allowed it.

I have only watched DWTS very occasionally, not sure of the whole history here.

I thought Shannon and Derek were lovely and so excited about it after. It was great to see but I imagine she may go early as she can't have much of a fan base. His may even be bigger than hers

I loved Shannon and Marlee's performances last night! Funny how we all see their dancing differently.

Adam still makes me laugh, and whether he shouldn't have used a unicycle last night, I don't care. And I have to agree with others who say that he really IS putting a lot into learning how to dance. I don't think he can control his inner clown, but that's o.k. by me!

I didn't see anything wrong with Adam's routine last night. I mean he doesn't do the choreography...

I don't have a problem with the unicycle. I have a problem with 1/3 of his dance being on a unicycle. And I'd bet that not all of that was Julianne's idea.

I loved the unicycle, and Adam did really get into the dancing after he stepped off. I loved the drama, the flair, the costumes, and yes the dancing of the number.

Still loving everybody; was going to vote last night, and then couldn't make up my mind until too late (WHY OH WHY do they do voting DURING the show and then only a 1/2 hour after?). I want everyone to stay, and want Steve Gutenberg back. I have never felt like this on a season before, that basically I am loving all the dancing. (PS Actually, Jason happened to be my least favorite last night, and no way did he deserve tens; I would have said eights).
