Does anybody know what Tom Bergeron's surprise announcement about the show was tonight? I'm on the West Coast so I haven't seen it yet.....

If anybody knows what he said, thanks for spoiling!

Rainbow- all Tom said was that all four remaining couples have topped the audience vote at least once this season (to try and hype the fact that anyone could win, or anyone could go this week). What he didn't reveal was when they lead the vote- It's easier to win a vote between 10 couples than it is to win between 5, since you need a higher percentage...

I loved Evan tonight..he was superb! Dialidol has
Erin going home. My votes were for Chad and Evan.
Anyone that feels that Evan is safe and don't
feel that he needs your votes..VOTE for him. I was just over at ABC and they said that Jake and
Vienna are going to dance next week together and
also Kate is going to dance and I heard a while
back that Melissa Rycroft is going to be on the
finale. This gossip was on the Discussion Board.

Just when you think you'll never have to see Jake and Vienna again they pop up tonight (I will FF through his dance next week, I am sure). Ick!

I really don't know why Derek is the 'star' among the dancers on this show. I think he's arrogant and unlikeable. And he got a ringer, once again. I would sooner see any of the other 3 win.

Here are the past winners:
Derek-1
Cheryl-2
Anna (she is kinda new) none
Max-NONE, he so deserves to win one.

But I am totally torn. I feel that Derek out performed Max by the slightst margain. I really want Derek to win...

No Wait, I really want Max to win....

I will just be heart-broken no matter which of them doesn't win.

I love Cheryl, too, and I think that Anna is adorable.

But I want one of my boys to win.

I don't think anyone deserves anything just for being there. And of course it is supposedly the celebs we are watching. Yeah, I know that isn't true...

I surprised myself a bit by voting for Nicole tonight.

I think Vienna looked a tad ticked the first time the camera sort of showed half of her but Jake was talking to Kate and the next time, didn't even see Vienna but Jake was talking and laughing with Kate. And then Evan stopped to hug Kate. LOL.

I'm betting Pam will be pulling out all the stops next week. Niecy too.

Certainly some good dancing tonight.

This Niecy fan's votes were all going to go to Erin.

HOWEVER, after watching Evan, I was blown away by how good he was, so I split my votes: 3 for Erin, 2 for Evan.

Chad doesn't do anything for me at all, and I felt he was overscored, thought his posture was bad and his knees bent too much. And he's creeping me out with his attitude and expensive gifts to Cheryl.

I've always thought that Nicole and Derek were TWO pros against the rest of the pack. I also can't stand that thing Nicole does with her hands at the beginning of each show. I know it means 'I love you' or 'you rock' or something like that, but it looks like a gang symbol to me! LOL!

In the end, it's down to fanbases, and Erin probably has the smallest one. If Chad goes, I won't be shocked, but Erin probably is done (I gave all my votes to her). Pay attention to the first few minutes tonight- a lot of people think that if Erin gets the encore, she'll be the one eliminated (as a "parting gift" from the producers, since she hasn't had one yet, even though there were some better dances last night).

Anna has actually been on for a long time, she just gets eliminated early! Isn't she married to Jonathan Roberts?

No matter who goes tonight between Erin or Chad, it doesn't really matter- The judges will ding whoever survives enough next week that they're virtually eliminated from winning (and they'll punt on Evan and Nicole- giving them the same score so it comes down to the audience vote).

Last night, I thought was the first time Evan showed real emotion after the dance. It was nice to see.

I have this sneaky suspicion that Nicole will be going home tonight....

I don't trust dialidol actually- the percentages seem just too off to me:

Nicole- 29.15%
Evan- 28.62%
Chad- 25.48%
Erin- 16.75%

I don't think there's a nine-point gap between Chad and Erin. I think it's more than 1.8% (which is what Chad needs), but not 9%.

the DI scores from last week prove my point:

Nicole- 30.55%
Evan- 28.75%
Erin- 18.12%
Niecy- 13.68%
Chad- 8.90%

I seriously doubt Chad picked up ALL of Niecy's fanbase as well as a little of everyone elses (He jumped 16.5%!! I mean, he might have picked up some of Niecy's fanbase, or maybe most of it- but ALL of it? Plus a quarter of a point from Evan, a point and a half from Nicole, and two points from Erin? It just doesn't make sense....)

I don't think DialIdol has been right for DWTS once this season. It's really impossible for them to be at all accurate since the online voting is such a huge component of this show.

I never did see the full show yet so I didn't vote. Hope I don't regret it. It would be amazingly wrong if Nicole doesn't make the finals. What I like is that she and Derek have made her compete at her level, doing insanely hard and stunning choreography. And while I do agree that it's nice to see folks with little to no experience dance, it's simply been a delight to watch them IMHO. And to be honest, I think Chad should have been voted out much earlier in the season. His dances have often been clumsy, and I'm tired of what I'm thinking is planned storyline flirting with him and Cheryl.

exactly Lurk- Erin is the first person that's been "red" (a definite voteout prediction) this season. All the others have been "yellow" (may or may not- it's within the margin of error, which was most of the couples most of the season).

The raw numbers are more telling:

I just watched my recording of last night's show and I have to say it was excellent top to bottom. I loved the packages where we saw everything our contenders have overcome: Erin overcoming a stalker, Evan overcoming shyness, Nicole overcoming growing up in Lexington Kentucky, and Chad overcoming an atmosphere of drugs, alcohol, and having Terrell Owens as a spokesman.

Evan's last dance and both of Nicole's dances were superlative, I think. I loved Chad's first dance, but if I had watched when it was airing, I would have ended up voting for him (and Nicole, whose tango was perfection) because of his second dance. He got scored lower on it and his technique wasn't as good as his first dance, but it was somehow joyous. Plus, let's face it, Chad is just hot as hell.

I keep thinking it would be nice to have a bunch of amateurs take the stage - I think they try real hard in reality tv to fill the "roles" and a few 'promises" are made to some of the better athletes have been leaked that make you wonder...

From the moment that Buzz danced, no one figured he'd make it beyond round 1 or 2 -

Would it be really boring to have a group of Buzz level dancers?

Reader, I wouldn't mind having 'Buzz level dancers' as long as they were ALL at that level.

For entertainment value, I suppose they must have 'stars' that have some dance background. I, personally, would love to see amateurs only, but they might lose a lot of viewers!

I wouldn't mind a level playing field of those without dance training. But I'd rather it be more of a level up than Buzz. Say Pamela or Niecy's level. I think an entire series of celeb's at Buzz's level would get very long and painful.

That said, given the fact they have been the #1 show many times this season, with really strong ratings throughout, I can't see them making many changes to their format.

Help!

Hulu STILL hasn't got the show and the abc.com player suddenly isn't working for me. Arggggg!

If someone has a spare minute, would they pretty please see if they can get the latest show playing at this link:
http://abc.go.com/watch/dancing-with-the-stars/93512

I want to know if it's just them being broken, or if I've got to change some setting. Grrrrrr, so annoying, last week's episode worked with no problem.
