I voted for Donnie too. He's about my age, and he competed with the young 'uns really well!

I couldn't have done it, even with my tap dancing experience from ages 8 -10.

I think he's going to win due to that freestyle. I loved Marie trying to distract him: "Look at my face" she demands! LOL!!

It's a shame that Kelly blew the freestyle. She had the crowd on their feet within about 30 seconds of starting, but then it just fizzled by the end. Her Argentinian tango was very good, and I think if she'd done well with the freestyle she might've won the whole thing. She seemed to have a lot of people pulling for her because of her lack of previous experience.

Mya was very good, and the comments from the judges surprised me. However, it would've behooved her to make this whole process seem a little more like a struggle. Plus the comment about making history hit me funny.

So I'm voting for Donny. In spite of his performance experience, he has struggled with different issues like being able to remember choreography and unlearning years of bad posture and old habits. His performances tonight were all very good. I had no idea who to vote for until the very end of the show, and whoever wins I'll be fine with because they all deserved to be there at the end.

Each to their own, Chief!

Yep, I think Donny could win. I even think I might vote for him!

West Coast here -- thanks for spoiling. I'm so happy Donny had a great Free Style. If it can't be Kelly for the win, then I will gladly vote for Donny!! Wa-hoo!! Can't wait to watch the show.

I agree generally, Curlyq. I'm thinking now it will be a Donny win.

I'm not voting.

I'm 2/3 through the show. I thought Kelly took round one. I really liked her tango. Mya left me cold. Donny was a bit sloppy, but I smiled and laughed through the dance.

During the second dance I thought Donny brought it! He looked great compared to those Pro guys. Kelly looked like she struggled.

I'm eagerly awaiting the third dance.

If I was Mya, I'd be a little mad at Dimitri - he kind of let her down again.

In the rehearsal she said she wanted to be more artistic and Dimitri talked her out of it and they went with his idea.

Dimitri was scolded by Len previously about not giving Mya more complicated routines. She obviously can handle more than he gives her.

Overall, I think Donny did the best tonight, and he'll get the most viewer votes. They do have one more dance for the judges only tomorrow night, so it could still change if someone screws up, or does really well.

I'm looking forward to this finale...and kinda sad that there is now NOTHING worth watching on TV.

Oh yuck. I don't think I'm even going to watch it.

And by the way, Kelly was taking classes at the gym. And oh, yeah, that article doesn't even mention DWTS at all! The article was PUBLISHED on 9/13 but it doesn't say when she interviewed for it. It could've been back in August.

Texannie, have you tried voting online? You have to be registered to vote there, but it's painless to sign up.

I got my five votes in on my land line and cell and five additional at ABC.com. As far as I'm concerned, Donny owned the night.

ETA: I see you've changed your post and have voted. So, never mine. :-)

Third Dance: Kelly really seemed the struggle, looked like she didn't know her dance. Mya just left me cold again. I agreed with Carrie Ann -- had visions of the movie and the very impressive dancing there. Her's didn't measure up. Donny -- What can I say?! I have a cheshire cat wide grin. Donny is getting all of my votes.

Mine too, Brenda. Wow, we are really in sync today/tonight (see other thread, lol.) I had a very hard time getting through on my phone calls for Donny. First time I've voted all season. Maybe I got 2 or 3 out of 12 attempts and then it said my time in my area was up; however, they have voting at the ABC website? How long does that last?

Costa, back in August she'd still have been training for the show, the start date was September 19, therefore six weeks of training puts it back to early August. If she didn't mention DWTS it might be because she wasn't allowed to yet, the contestants weren't announced until the third week of August and they've already started training by then.

The contestants (or maybe only those that need it?) do a range of introductory classes in a variety of styles, along with cardio and strength training. The UK version has a sister show that runs daily and they go into all things like this.

I kinda think Donny might win it due to viewer votes. His freestyle was far and away the best.

Mya IS the best dancer, but her freestyle had no soul. Donny's did.

Edit: Yikes! I figured out how to vote and voted five times for Donny! I sort of never intended to do that.

Well I voted 4 times for Donny and threw my last vote to Kelly to commend her efforts.

Even through the mistakes Kelly had in the last dance, she still made me smile.

She probably won't win, but I think she will be personally taking more away from this experience than any of the other dancers.
