Jason and Cristian put Kristi on their shoulders and carried her around. Derick put Mark and his. LOL, these guys are a hoot. Too bad it's over all ready. Now, who do we think will sign on for next season? LOL!!!

They will be back in September with a brand new cast! Great finale - I enjoyed it. I didn't get to see a lot of the dancers this year as I was too busy watching Big Brother!

HA HA HA! My local ABC channel forgot to turn the news on and cut off the national feed so I got to watch a minute of DWTS coming back on. I was very confused. Somebody goofed.

I almost wish she lost, just so they would have a female/male comp. We would get more dancers and more fun I truly believe Mark helped her win, he is such an animated dancer and is very likeable. I think after all this time many vote for the pro dancer as much as the celeb. I love Tony and sometimes I vote cuz I want him there!

Yay! Happy that Kristi won! I don’t really know much about Usher other than seeing him in the gossip mags, but that second number of his sure was catchy. I really enjoyed that! I’m thinking that song is probably not typical Usher though. LOL.

Even though I was pulling for Cristian to win, I kinda figured that Kristi had it nailed. And good for her! But at this point, I'd have been happy with any of the three taking the mirror ball. I wish other shows were this enjoyable. Til September folks...

Loved the finale, loved the winner. Nice to have a woman win (and deserve it.. I guess better wording for what I feel is great to have the best dancer win and yay it was a woman. Must give the other male professionals hope, too.. I enjoyed seeing all the former couples return and dance too. I really think so many of them had a great time this season and I love how they seem to support each other too. Next season.. well I hope Paula Abdul does not participate and, despite urging Anderson Cooper says no way is he doing it. Coming back in September probably means no summer Olympians included.

I'd like to see Gordon Ramsay do it and have the female yell "Donkey!" every time he messed up.

Brenda, that was one of Usher's songs, but they sort of remixed the background a little to a different beat.

How about Donald Trump. That would be a hoot! I'd love to hear him argue with the judges.

THANK GOD Christian <76> didn't win and I'm glad he was the 3rd one out as well. lol I'm VERY happy Kristi won..she deserved it. Best part is when she went over to Brett (Her husband) and lifted the trophy like it was the stanley cup. That was fantastic!!

<76> You could see the agony on <Christian's> face when he first injured it. The pain was evident in that rehearsal when he hurt it again, and they stated he required permission from the hospital and his doctors before they would let him continue to dance. Plus they announced that he's having his ruptured tendon operated on this Friday! I have a frozen left shoulder. Sometimes my right arm pains me greatly, cuz it's taking up the slack for my injured arm, and I'm not lifting any dancers with it! Anyhow, of course his other arm probably hurts like heck, too, he's using it strenuosly to do the work of two arms! I wish him well with his surgery this week. I hope his dedication to the competition didn't permanently damage his arm, which was mentioned as a real possibility. He's a winner to me, by not being a quitter and proving his mettle, his dedication, his loyalty, and his endurance. That's a winner in my book.

I think Christian did an amazing job with only one arm, but agreed that he was probably the 3rd place guy. But I honestly thought that their cha cha was the best of the 3 on Monday night...although it was as sharp as Kristi's it was so fast and they both looked amazing during it. I didn't realize that Jason was married and his daughters are adorable! They are so tiny and he is so big...nothing about that man is unattractive! I hope that he is really as nice of a guy as he seems to be. Kristi deserved to win. She was the best, and she really seemed to enjoy the experience. And I'm glad Mark won too, since he and Samantha were so awesome together last year...and call me a sap but I kind of like the fact that they are still together.

Very happy for Kristi and Mark was so cute with how excited he got over the win. This was a great cast and by far my favorite season.
