Pamy that was what turned me around on Mary, when some of the dancers would say how much it meant to get that scream or be on the train.. I also think her critcisms are meant kindly and meant to teach, not just rag on someone. The time of parter switch can be exciting.. but of course some have had to switch already., but others have had the same partner since day 1..

Pamy, I think what was meant was that Caitlin got lucky because she got eliminated with Phillip and they want him on the tour so they invited her, too. My fave guys are Brandon and Ade. My fave girls are Jeanine and Melissa, with Janette a close third. And FWIW, Mary could quiet down on the scream. She's making the show all about her. Yeah, it's exciting to get put on the train. But do we need 30 seconds of Mary screaming? No. I do think she's careful in her judging; always careful not to hurt a dancer but to provide constructive criticism.

Yep....that's what I meant. I knew they had different partners.

About MJ's music, my point was that the whining irritated me not the reason behind it all. Nigel could have said it can't be accomplished for this season, but they hope to try for a future date, or something. Whining did not say the real reason, resolved nothing and now maybe even prevented any MJ music in the near future.
My favorites are Melissa and Brandon, then Ade and Janette. I'd like to see one of them win, but maybe someone else will surprise me next week. Also, I haven't come across the top 10 pic yet, but here's the top 12 and one of Cat from this past week.

Loved that dress, but it wouldn't look as good on me.

I thought Cat looked much prettier on Thurs' show than on Weds. Didn't like her hair pinned up like that and wasn't crazy about the dress. Jimmer, this is only our 2nd season watching this show. We used to mute Mary, but now I just turn the volume way down on her. I do want to hear what she has to say, but do wish she wouldn't scream so. And that nasally whine!!! So obnoxious. DH can't stand her. I've loved Jeanette since the auditions. She's just got that spark. And still love Randi and Evan. He reminds me of a little leprechaun. I think he's adorable. And for such a small guy, he can make some really powerful leaps. Jumps pretty high in the air. (Sorry, not much knowledge of dance here, but it looks impressive to me.)

One of my favorites from the beginning has been Kupono. The other male favorite is Ade and my 2 favorite girls are Janette and Jeanine.

Mary used to bother me but now when she does her thing I just look at those kids. They get so excited when she starts screaming. That always makes me laugh.

Roxi, what do you mean by "two couples just basically swapped partners"? Looks to me like they all did! Smokey... yup, that's why I was surprised they didn't get rid of him before. I think this week may be it, though. She's a pretty light dancer, unlike Randi, and he's a very heavy dancer. Should be obvious in the waltz. Also, not so sure of a paso doble with Randi and Kupono. They may surprise me but...

Costacat, I understood her to be talking about Kayla/Evan and Randi/Kupono. I feel bad for Randi. She was with the right partner in Evan. Not sure how she/Kupono will neither.

I found a clip of the interview with Cat, that Smokey mentioned above and the picture is from a couple of weeks ago. I still can't find the top ten pics, it's odd; I feel like this season is a prelude to the fall and this season is taking a backseat. Anyway, here's the clip. Conan O'Brien - Cat Deeley (10/07/2009)

Yes, that's what I meant. Except I was talking about Janette/Ade and Melissa/Brandon...it didn't occur to me that the other two couples had flip-flopped...I just thought it was strange that the two strongest couples all season long had just simply switched partners...major DUH on me...LOL!

So...now that we have reached the Top 10, does everyone dance twice? Once with their new partner, and a solo? I can't remember...seems like they would have to in order to fill the two hours! ;-)

Carmen, if you look at Sea's spoiler from 9/7, you'll see your answer (this week one dance per couple, two group dances).

The top ten performances are tonight @ 8pm ET. Is that the one you meant? There are some sites that have the eps online, a couple are here and here.

I just noticed the interview with Cat has been removed, I guess NBC is going to continue what they did with the Leno show--sorry.
