Jgalt: just my guess who i'd like to see go first. not interested in watching her. I'm west coast and have only seen Rick Fox perform, (one of two I wanted to see).

Best Line of the Night: Len to The Situation, "You've got the guns, but not the ammunition." Beats even any Tom Bergeron comment tonight! Loved Jennifer Gray, and if she's had work done, it looks great on her! Was sad that Margaret Cho used such broad comedy strokes in her routine. The golden wings were fascinating and fun, but wrapping herself up in them had this uneasy feeling of a mistake, same for fall at end. Fine line I guess, but if it's not clear that it's supposed to be for laughs, doesn't seem funny. Wish she had restrained herself a bit.

Speaking of work being done, did Corky have some work done on his face? He looks different to me.

What does Len have against Kurt Warner? I thought he was charming and really not bad for week 1. As a matter of fact, aside from Cho's ridiculousness and the Hoff's obvious terror I didn't think there was really a trainwreck in the bunch, considering how bad week 1 has been in past years. I'm still wanting The Situation to go. Just because that whole Jersey Shores thing annoys me.

Jennifer made me cry. I was sobbing during the promos. She dances beautifully, and I hope she sticks around til the end. Florence Henderson was so cute. The Situation surprised me, I expected to detest him, but there is something appealing about him. We'll see. Rick the BB player is gorgeous to look at. Bristol was another surprise. Good for her. She handled herself well. Kyle was absolutely adorable! I've never seen him before, but he got a new fan in me tonight. David is just a mess, still want to love him. Michael Bolton is an amazing singer. Boy has no rhythm. I've never been sucked in for the entire season before, just popped in and out of them. If Jennifer sticks around, I will too. I heart her. Dirty Dancing is still at the top of my list after all these years.

I thought they scored Kurt Warner too high, but I don't like him anyhow. And Rick Fox is always going to get a great audience reaction because he was a Laker...they won't forget that, but they will forget that he cheated on Vanessa Williams when he was married to her. But I have to admit, his dancing was much better than I expected. I'm afraid Ms Cho is going to go home, which is a shame cuz I've liked her for years. She's just a bit too out there for most people. Brandy's dance was just lovely. It was nice to see Tony get a good partner after that unfortunate partner he had last year. Mark, though, what was with the lack of hair? And worse, he told his partner to go "balls out" when she was dancing and, sorry, but I found it inappropriate. I'm probably too prudish about things like that and I have to admit that his partner was better than one would have expected. I always get confused about people's reactions to her, though: I remember when Fantasia was a contestant on AI and so many were scandalized that she was a single mother; then that Bowersox girl came along this past season and nobody seemed to care, so I though, oh, well, things have changed a lot in a few years; then, only months later, people are again scandalized at single motherhood. So I guess I don't understand the inconsistency. Kyle made me smile. The Hoff did not, but that doesn't mean he won't stay around for several weeks. About the person who called himself "the man, the myth, the legend"--the less said, the better. Philadelphia had plenty of gentlemen (*cough*) like him and I was always very happy to steer clear of them. The Jennifer Grey stuff, I'm sad to say, struck me as both maudlin and calculated. YMMV

The man, the myth, the hopefully gone very soon and the bonus is, Karina would be gone in the same fell swoop. But have to agree, unfortunately it will probably be Margaret Cho to go.

I had to rewind a couple times in order to hear Bruno's comments because there was a lady with a very long forehead sitting behind him. She intrigued me and it was distracting. I kept wondering why she chooses not to wear bangs, and how she must love her forehead, etc. Before long, Bruno would be done talking and I realized I didn't hear a word he said. I also think Margaret will go home. I am a fan of hers, and I sure don't think she was the worst dancer last night, but sometimes she doesn't come off very likable.

Thanks for the score card Seamonkey! My choice to go would be David or Michael. Both were terrible. Didn't like the antics Margaret threw into her dance, but she was definitely a better dancer than the two guys and can clean up her act and do better. The Situation (or whatever his name is!) can probably improve a great deal with more time to practice, but I don't care for him at all. And I wouldn't be sad to see Karina go with him either.

Jamie Lee Curtis looked fantastic...why isn't she dancing? I kind of felt manipulated by the Jennifer Grey thing too. My recollection was that at the time that Dirty Dancing was filmed she couldn't stand Patrick Swayze (from the time they both were in Red Dawn) and she tried to keep him from being hired for the film. That is not to say that they didn't eventually become close, and I understand that his widow is a supporter of hers, but I could have done without the overly mauldlin lead-in...she dances well enough that she didn't need the sympathy vote.

I do wonder who picks the songs. Anyone would know that would bring back all kinds of memories. I did enjoy her dancing though--and even though she's had work, there were times that i did think she looked just like she did in Dirty Dancing.

I only caught the last few dances - I wonder if Michael will dance to one of his songs! I didn't think Mike the Situation did as bad as I thought he would, I kind of felt bad for him since a lot of people think he's a joke - and does Karina always have that look on her face or is it b/c he's her partner? Derek and Jennifer hit it off great! All I thought was when I saw her cry was 'sympathy vote'!! LOL

Jamie Lee Curtis and Florence Henderson REAL WOMEN!! Fantastic Role models imho - they had wrinkles, and they were proud!! Too many actresses are overdoing those shots, and lifts (Think Joan Rivers - compare her to Florence - ) Roxip ITA I also believe Jennifer took a lot of flack because she couldnt dance, they spent hours and hours with her - she had no rhythm - or couldnt remember the moves.... but like you posted they eventually came to terms, and made a really good movie! Iconic... and yes, gone too soon.

Actually, Jennifer dad is Joel Grey...a professional actor/choreographer/dancer. She went into Dirty Dancing as a dancer. Also...I heard rumors she had a crush on Patrick during the movie, but he was happily married. According to IMDB, Jennifer's dancing career began in a Dr. Pepper TV commercial.

I think Margaret goes tonight- tied for lowest score with The Hoff and The Situation, and she doesn't have the fanbase. I do agree with Pamy that Audrina could be a shock elimination- she was underscored and I don't know if she has the fanbase. Bristol could be in trouble too. and I think Lacey looks hotter as a brunette, the blond hair just doesn't work on her.

I am just watching the show now... Wow Rick Fox is very good looking. But he and Cheryl are miss matched in terms of height. When they were out there on the dance there was nothing to suggest that he was anything but an average stature man... so it just looked like he was dancing with a child.... It made me a bit uncomfortable...

I hope it's the Hoff or Bolton who goes tonight. They made me clench my butt cheeks in angst! Margaret AND Louis made a joke of the dance last night - Louis should know better - he's been doing this for how many seasons, now? I'm really surprised that he allowed it. I thought Margaret had potential, so I'd like to see her stick around. The men are not impressing me so far, except for that awesome young man, Kyle! He was a pleasant surprise, and I think he'll go far. My picks for F2 (yes, I know it's early!) are Brandy and Jennifer. BTW - Len was in fine form - between the comment to the Situation, and his other comment to someone (can't remember who) - 'It's never to early to panic' HA!! Cracked me up!

I didn't get to see a few of the dances but I'm pulling for Bristol & Jennifer.. (hope Sarah stays away) I found Jennifers tears totally believable... They way they just came on so fast..she was having fun and laughing, then wham... Its a buildup of what people expect of her, nervousness, being tired...people tie her to Patrick and always will, its out there and she reacted... I believe that now thats done and over, she'll be herself and hopefully win this thing.. I think she looks great even though she so different than her oldself Love Jamie Lee

I like Margaret Cho, hope she stays. And, yes, Louie did choreograph the dance... I hope Hasselhoff or the Situation leaves tonight. Karina would be gone too, an added plus! I couldn't make out what the situation said to Len before Len came back with the best line of the night. Does anyone know?

I read where DWTS have been after Jamie Lee Curtis for a number of years, but she has declined. Not sure what the connection between her and Jennifer Grey is. Maybe it's as simple as they are friends.

I was wondering about the connection too Kooklie.. I thought maybe their "famous" parents knew each other... or its like you say... they are just friends.
