I'm just about done with this season. For me, the last two weeks the wrong people have left. I think part of the problem may be they are doing the show at the wrong time of year, with more competition from other shows; thus, not as many voters, so the votes count more than they might in the summer. Either that, or certain dancers have vote bots. While I like Russell, he doesn't compare to the likes of Ryan and Jacob nor did he to Nathan, who was a very good all around dancer. I hope Nigel keeps his mouth shut next year because I do feel his verbal lashings of Natan/Mollee didn't help them in this competition. I don't have a favorite anymore. I'll keep telling myself that because if I were to like someone, they'd go next. (Sigh) It feels like this season is very rushed and predetermined almost. Not enthralling for this viewer.

I have no problem with last night's results...let's face it...every week SOMEBODY has to go. That's the nature of the show. Personally I like Ryan's masculinity and I thought his solo was much improved on Tuesday night. He and Kathryn killed that cha cha cha routine...I thought that was the highlight of Kathryn's season (and how weird was it that last night Adam went on and on about how good she was in that routine when he was supposed to be saying something about Mollee and Ellenore...I figured Mollee was the one about to be eliminated since he never even said a word about Ellenore). I think Legacy certainly overcame a lack of training and has been amazing but he has been very fortunate in that the choreographers have really slanted dances towards his style (which made them great fun to watch). Personally at this point Jakob is my favorite dancer. He is just beautiful to watch and seems to truly love what he is doing. He has become an amazing partner and he makes what he does look so effortless.

In reading some of the posts here, I get the feeling that several people are not aware that the finale is next week with all 6 dancers. There are no more eliminations, just lots of dancing on Tuesday and crown the winner on Wednesday. Season 6 Finale Update: Adam Lambert to Perform.

I'll be happy if either Jakob or Russell wins. I like them both.

Yes, apparently they have a 1 hour show on Tuesday night and thena 2 hour show on Wednesday, right?

Does anyone else feel like this add-on season just kinda flew by faster than normal summer seasons? When they kept talking about the finale it just seemed like "already???" I'd love for Jacob to win this. I'd be happy if any of the others remaining did though, too.

It would be funny for Jakob to win this season since his 'best friend' won last season. Actually, I love to watch him dance and I do think he's the 'best dancer'. However, we all know, and Nigel has acknowledged that this is not a competition for the 'best dancer'. every week Cat says that this is a competition for 'America's Favorite Dancer'

They mentioned last night that it is at least 1 week shorter season due to the holidays...and also the first few weeks were kind of hit and miss with there being only one show a week and the judges doing the elimination. I would be happier if they just went back to one show a year. I love this show but there are just so many other things to watch during the regular season that I don't enjoy it being "special" nearly as much.

Mollee just got better each week, such a joyful spirit. I'm ok with any of them winning. I feel it will be a guy since last year was a girl.

As much as I love Cat, I just gotta say: that was the ugliest ensemble ever on Wed. night. I always look forward to what she wears but this time it was hard to look at....

The dress wasn't so bad but the belt was horribly distracting.

The dress was better than her gaudy, 1970's, gold lamé, shorts pantsuit with that huge belt. I couldn't stand looking at Cat Tuesday night. I hated the 70's with a passion and all the nasty 'hip' crap my mother dressed me in.

Cat's stylist needs to find a new line of work... or get her eyes checked! Cat is so pretty and quite often I think they make her look horrid.

I've read that she is her own stylist.

Watching the season 6 auditions again on Fox Reality. They are having a season 6 marathon today and tomorrow. I just saw Karen and she was trying to sell sex even at the original audition. I do admit, though, that she and her husband were hot.

I completely disagree. Some routines are sensual, some even provocative, that doesn't translate into selling sex, moreover, people who sell sex are prostitutes and that has nothing to do with dance in general, nor does it have anything to do with Karen, nor any of her performances.

Here are some clips of the eliminated dancers on the Ellen show (some of the clips have more of her show on them, but the routines are there). I like the one Noelle and Nathan did, I thought they were great given the time they had. And I couldn't find clips of Bianca Revels/Phillip Attmore or Ariana Debose/Brandon Dumlao, so I don't know if they were on Ellen's show or not. Mollee Gray and Legacy Perez Noelle Marsh and Nathan Trasoras Karen Hauer and Victor Smalley Channing Cooke and Kevin Hunte Pauline Mata and Peter Sabasino

Excuse me, but no where did I even imply that Karen was a prostitute. And more open minds don't read a dance selling sex as having to do with prostitution.

Tomorrow's show will be one hour. 9 dances all man/woman combos. Ryan and Ashleigh get Travis instead of ballroom. Jakob and Kathryn get a Pas De Deaux.

Thanks for the list Kookliebird. Three routines each and in one hour? They will be exhausted. I'm already at a loss as to who should win, I wish it were a longer show to figure it out. The final 6 contestants will be on THE ELLEN SHOW today December 15th, John Mayer is on too, so it should be good.

Russell's lyrical jazz gave me chill bumps and made Mary do some major crying. I just love watching him dance.
