Wow that Paso was outstanding! Team Chacha ick. And I thought Susan's earlier Paso was ick. She didn't pop at all. I thought the judges were being very lienient(sp) with her. Loved Lance/Lacey's dance but dang she sounded like a drama queen lol.

Just watching last night's show now. Lacey is just too immature to be a pro-teacher. Look how understanding Derek, Julianne and Mark are all her age and aren't me me me all the time.

I think it's time for Susan to go. Maurice and Warren both upped their game.

Because Derek, Julianne, and Mark know that it's all about teaching the stars and helping THEM to shine (since, presumably, the pros already know how to). Lacey hasn't and won't learn. I suspect she won't be asked back, too.

I don't think she'll be back next season either.

Just watched the group Paso, it was pretty dramatic! I did think the judges were generous to the other team, but at the same time it would be unfair to mark Cody and Lance down too much because of Susan.

How's Julianne doing?? It seems strange to me that she could bounce back from surgery in a week's time... it took me well over 2 weeks to walk around without discomfort, how could she dance as before??? Mmmm
She was the highlight of the show for me...

Didn't they say she was taking 2 weeks off...but she will be the singer at next week's elimination show.

I'd rather have Lacey over Edyta and Karina.

Yeah, when they saw Julianne this week she was still in bed. I don't think she'll dance next week but they're hoping she's ok to dance the week after. I hope Cody survives long enough!

I dunno Mocha. I can't decide which is the lesser of the three to vote for. (Or rather, which two I'd vote against!) :-)

Even if I don't like the pro I wouldn't vote against the star. Cody is a better dancer than Susan, regardless of what you think of Edyta, Julianne or Tony. It isn't fair that he has a high probability of being eliminated tonight because the judges all fawn over Susan, which I suspect has something to do with her longevity on an ABC show. Certainly can't be for her dancing.

And by the way, I'm a HUGE AMC fan (or was in the past) so I don't have anything against Susan...its just at this point in the competition it should be about the dancing and her's isn't good.

Well, I don't vote on DWTS, so there you go. And I'd only take the pro into consideration if I did vote and it was even and I couldn't decide between two (or three).

But yeah, if Cody goes tomorrow, like I said, I'm done with this season.

Completely agree with everything you said, Mocha. If the judges keep giving Susan such high marks, she'll never go. I like her as a person, but she's not a dancer. Hopefully, the large score Team Paso got last night will edge her out even with higher scores from the judges.

I just dont get why AMC cant write Susan out of the show for a month. I know she is the weakest dancer but sounds like the flying back and forth leaves little time to practice.

I think she has improved but hope she goes. I give her much respect, she really seems to love doing this.

Every season there is someone, usually a soap "star", who has to travel back 'n forth between NY and LA during the week. Every single we hear wah wah wah. They ALL have lives, and they all knew what they were getting into. I have zero sympathy.

Susan is the weakest dancer, and there is no way she'll improve. She just doesn't have the dancer gene, or whatever it is. By now, if she hasn't learned how to dance, she won't. I don't think any amount of practice will improve her.

Derek Hough: 'Dancing' pro Julianne Hough won't be back next week


By John Bracchitta, 11/04/2008

Julianne Hough is probably still at least another week away from returning to Dancing with the Stars -- at least according to her brother and fellow dance professional Derek Hough.

"[She's] probably not going to be back next week. Even if she wanted to -- and she does want to -- we're not gonna let her. We're gonna make sure she's in bed," Hough told Entertainment Tonight after Dancing with the Stars' Monday night performance show.

Hough said that one of the reasons for delaying her comeback was to allow her more time to rest before resuming the stresses that come with dancing on a regular basis. However, he added that her recovery has been moving along well and that she has progressed to the point where she is no longer bed-ridden.

"She's getting better. The first couple days after the surgery were a nightmare, she was in a lot of pain. But she's a fighter, [she's] up and about. I've seen her and she's getting a lot better," Hough told ET.

Hough's celebrity partner Cody Linley told ET that he had visited her and, while acknowledging that she wasn't quite her usual "chipper self" due to her recovery, said that she was healing well. He also added that Hough said that she would be voting for him and Edyta Sliwinska, who is filling in for her during her absence.

Linley and Sliwinska performed a waltz on Monday's Dancing with the Stars performance show. The judges weren't overly impressed with the dance and only gave the pair a score of 22, however they also noted that Linley and Sliwinska were still getting to know each other.

After performing his waltz, Linley admitted that he had been nervous about switching partners to Dancing with the Stars co-host Samantha Harris, but said he has also been enjoying dancing with Sliwinska.

"It was tough. I was really, really nervous going into it [to be honest] because I've been with Julianne forever, she knows me," Linley told Harris. "Edyta and I, our relationship is new and we gotta have that chemistry, but she's been amazing. I trust her 100% and I think it was a great waltz."

Linley also reiterated that Hough was "doing great" and "looked awesome." He also revealed that he had spoken to her right before going onstage for his performance.

"She wished me luck, and she was like 'I know that you'll do it awesome, Edyta's amazing,'" Linley said. "She said sorry she cant be here. she was like 'I wanna be there with you, but I know you're gonna rock it.'"

It has been my experience with the people I know that 3 weeks is a normal recovery time for appendicitis surgery, then you move moderately into normal life. not jump into intensive dancing. So, this is not a real surprise to me.

I agree with everyone about Susan's lack of a "dance gene".. she's like a deer in the headlights in the group dances.

That's why I don't like the idea of scores from the group dances affecting anyone's rankings. Just to watch them, very cool, especially the Paso number, but Susan dragged down her team unbearably, and if Susan had gone home before Cloris, then it would have been Cloris dragging (If Toni had been there instead of Cloris or Susan.. better)
