I still can't believe they scored Kate higher than Buzz. At least Buzz remembered and did all the steps.

I don't think Kate felt she couldn't dance. She wanted this and it seems she gets everything she wants these days. It's time for her to learn a lesson about wanting ....err biting off more than you can chew. She was just horrible tonight and I have to agree was so rude to Tony. Even though I don't like her, I was embarrassed for her. Again, I'm sick of the "I love my children more than anyone" with the mouthing at the beginning of the show and the "I 'heart' You" before a commercial. It's beomce almost manic of her to prove that she loves her children. What is she afraid of? I just about lost it when she whined how 'everyone in her life leaves her.' What is this woman smoking? She broke from her parents and sister. She broke from her brother and sister-in-law and She wanted a divorce from Jon. She desperately needs counseling if this is how she sees things. She pushes people away, but in her mind sees it as people leaving her. I liked most of the peeps tonight; thought Pamela Anderson did pretty good. I still like Erin and Nicole and even though I'm not fond of him, Jake did better. Not sure about Evan with those tennis shoes...made his feet look weird. Are those numbers from dialidol actually correct? Tom said something about it would be a shocker if someone was eliminated tonight. Are there vote bots out there? It's so discouraging when people think it's funny to vote for the worst people to mess with producers and actually find a way to vote en mass.

Well, if there are vote bots going on and the worst dancer keeps getting the highest votes, they need to do a 'dance off' where only the judges vote and it's sudden death for one couple. It's the only way to stop this from becoming about everything but the dancing. Kate was awful tonight. She looked like she had pooped her pants or something, the way she was moving. It's really painful to watch. I think the major problem with Chad is the fact that he's so tall and they paired him up with Cheryl, who's a shorty. He has to stoop down so much and it makes him look very awkward.

I agree about Chad and Cheryl, Holly. He has to have perfect posture and dancing with a short partner is going to hurt him. He's SO cute and charming...I hope he stays around for a while, and I wonder if there really is something going on with those two? Maks and Erin, also. Something's going on there. I really like her personality and how she's able to bring that ego down a peg or two. I'd be ok with Buzz or Kate leaving tomorrow.

It's interesting that it looks like Erin requested Maks. The other week it looked like a joke when she threw in that she had actually requested Tony, but tonight she seemed serious when she said she requested Maks. I actually think they are a good combination. I loved Erin and Nicole tonight, but--can't help myself--absolutely adored Niecy!! Favorite male dancer tonight was Evan (last week it was Chad).

oh YEAH came here to get Aiden's scores. I slept through DWTS and woke up a few minutes into Castle, which I was DYING to see. Found 2 incomplete YouTube's of Aiden dancing but no scores. I really felt he got a raw deal last week and I sure hope this means he'll be safe. Now I'm really happy (sorry but I can't stand her) to hear about Kate. Off to try to find a YouTube of it. Poor Tony wish he got someone else. Too late to phone vote but maybe I can get a few in online before noon tomorrow!

WOW oh WOW!!! Now that was a major moment if there ever was one on DWTS!!! Can there still be anyone left in the US that doesn't think Kate IS as big a witch as most of us think? Tony has year in year out been the kindest, sweetest, and most patient instructor. His quitting was literally jaw dropping. And you could see it was legit! I so hope she goes...this should be proof that this woman needs to just get the heck out of the public arena. Not to mention it should prove she IS as bad as many say! Hope Tony gets an excellent partner next season to make this up to him. BTW Sea, just read back a bit. I did want to comment on one thing you said, about how this show totally revived Donny & Marie's career. Not sure if you've followed them, but both have been doing VERY well in recent years and if anything gave them a current boost I'd say it was far more the Oprah show. (That's what prompted the initial offer for a Vegas run together again). I do think Marie may have gotten a bit more help from this show. But are you aware Donny has been routinely selling out MASSIVE arena's in the UK? And he hasn't done so bad in the state's in Vegas both when he did his own show prior to either of them being on DWTS. And the current Donny & Marie show at the Flamingo was routinely selling out nightly before he did DWTS. So while I think this show helped them do even better, they were pretty darn successful w/out DWTS. And I didn't even mention their 50th Anniversary world tour which was all sold out massive arenas w/the entire Osmonds. I just want to give them their due, since they literally have worked for it their entire lives!!

I am also fed up with Derek getting all the good dancers. Why can't Jonathon or Tony get a good dancer for a change??? Tony was lucky he got Melissa when his original partner (Nancy O Dell) got injured. It's time for the slightly older dancers get good dancers and the kids get the old fogies.

I voted mostly for Chad because I thought he did well last week and wasn't marked fairly and I thought they were so mean to him this week. No he wasn't good but he was trying hard and this is all new to him and Len especially was just down right cruel. I hate the meanness. There is a huge difference between people like Nicole and Evan who have a background in stuff like this and performing and people like Chad and Shannen. I even gave Kate a few votes. On Entertainment tonight they did a story on Max and Erin and they made it seem like they were dating. I think Cheryl and Chad are cute together. I'm also tired of Derek getting the good people.

I think part of Derek's success is HIS abilities and his amazing choreography---by FAR the strongest on the show IMHO. All his partners may have been attractive, but I don't think they were naturally superior talents. I recall early Shannon Elizabeth and she was horrid. He just taught her well and choreographed to her strong suits. That said, even he could only do so much lolol. Twinkie, sorry but IMHO there is a difference between drama and watching people just be ugly and mean-spirited. I don't enjoy the latter, especially when it's real life people not a script. After tonight I'm scratching my head trying to understand how Kate has any "fans." All because she gave birth to cute kids?? Cause it sure isn't her personality IMHO

I understand why people dislike Derek, I really do, but he is a terrific dancer and teacher. And he's cute, too. I realize I'm in the minority, but Niecey drives me crazy. To me, she seems like complete artifice, and not in the good way. I just don't get her appeal. Poor Buzz. Shannen is a great big meh to me. Did I miss Chad? It's 9.20 and I haven't seen him dance.

I'm a sucker for Shannen because she's doing it for her dad. My dad loves this show too. I feel bad for Tony gosh. Kate is so socially awkward. Having all those kids and ordering them around is leaking into how she speaks to adults.

Oh dear. I felt bad for Mr Ochocinco. That was a not good performance, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the last pair. He's so adorable though. I literally LOL'd at the Pamela Anderson package before she danced: she had them film her someplace with nice lighting and soft focus, bless her heart. It was like Norma Desmond doing DWTS. That woman who does the interviews is terrible. I hate her voice and WTH was she wearing? It was something that would get you auffed from Project Runway.

I just switched channels and saw the last little bit of their argument where Tony left and then the performance. It seemed pretty obvious from their body language after the performance that Tony doesn't know what to do. Most of the teams are supportive and protective toward each other but I didn't get that feeling from Tony and Kate.

Personally, I think the little drama between Tony and his partner is just an attention grabber for ratings. I looked like bad acting from both of them and the dénouement struck me as contrived. They're just trying to get eyeballs to the show IMO.

Tonight, Kate was Kate doing what she does best, telling Tony how to do his job better than he does. He is always so easy going and even she brought him to his breaking point....just sayin.

The little drama may well have been staged but I still don't see any chemistry or caring between them. Most partners console each other after a bad performance, critiques and poor marks. Tony looked like he didn't know whether to touch her or not. ETA: I thought Samantha was fine as well but an awful lot of people didn't think she was very good.

Tish, I've done PR for more decades than I'd like to publicly admit. The thought briefly crossed my mind of what you are thinking and then I immediately dismissed it because it would be by far PR suicide for Kate. Not only that it goes against the main reason she did the show...to soften her image and to make America think she is a wonderful person we likeand root for. Plus the frustration and anger on Tony looked 100% legit to me. But bottom line, for the last few months I've been convinced that Kate has one hell of a PR team in place working to rehab her image. I can give you a loooong list of things that happened, not to mention the change in her personal appearance, that support that. Plus they seem to want to soften her for that new TLC show. The very last thing they would want is for her to come across as the biotch Jon and others have accused her of being. I'm just a bit surprised that DWTS aired it and they didn't stop it. Maybe DWTS wouldn't be bullied?! ETA Jimmer I just don't see it being staged. If something is staged then there is a payoff for it. What would that be for her? Negative publicity and many thinking she really IS as bad as she appeared on the show? After months of being made to look like St. Kate? Sorry I just don't see that...makes no sense to me either.

Lurk, my thought is that they know Tony's partner is going to be safe for a few weeks--and why not? apparently a lot of people who watch reality shows like her and will vote for her regardless of her dancing ability--and that they are establishing a narrative that is ultimately positive for her: she was like an unbroken horse in the beginning, but ultimately Tony managed to tame her, even though, bless her heart, she couldn't overcome her lack of natural talent. She'll finish 4th or 5th and everyone will be happy. She may even end up with a hairstyle that doesn't look like a wig eventually.
