Reality tv moment, the teams were pre-chosen because of the costumes.

I think Kristi picked Bristol because she wanted Mark. Isn't he the pro she won with?

Kelli looked amazing last night. She needs some cute outfits designed by Mondo, though. Overall I didn't love the show. I thought the best by far was Brandy, but I didn't notice her stumble. I really want to like Ms Grey, but she's so damned weepy. I just throw up my hands in exasperation every time she turns on the waterworks, which means I get quite a workout every show cuz it happens over and over again. I thought Mr Warner's tango was pretty terrible. Even *I* noticed his bad posture. How did they give him those scores for that? And, while I'm on that dance, WTH with Emmitt? I think that season was during my un-years and I didn't watch. I can't believe he won. That dance looked a hot mess.

I'd think it'd be pretty funny if Bristol got eliminated on Election day...

I thought Bristol looked really nice in the frilly pink thing she wore for the Cha Cha. Weird show with the teams, and then them kind of copying old dances.

So, the scores are really tight. It appears that there is no real advantage to anyone. Agreed on the J.Grey comment. Every week, it's the tears. However, with Brandy, I think we've seen her grown over the weeks. AND, I would love to have Maks win the mirror ball trophy. Loved the Maks / Tom B. interaction at the end of the show. They appear to be great pals.

I too am so sick of Jennifer Greys whining. And there are people who will vote based on it. Never have liked Derek so I am just waiting for them to leave. lol I know I have a long wait.

Love Jennifer, I can identify with her. And again, perhaps she's not crying or whining any more than one or two of the others, they just don't show us. Creative editing. I thought Brooke was so lovely in that red dress and the pretty hairdo.

I think Derek thinks they're going home. His latest tweets: I just want to remember and focus on all the wonderful things Jennifer has done this season so far Memorable Viennese waltz Energetic jive. Fun samba telling the storing about the school boy and his teacher .. The Argentine tango , which was.... The foxtrot had a fun story to it . Great look .. Paso I think she danced great just a little Mess up at the end , it happens ... And now the tango ... All in all she's got lots to be proud of .. They've made them feel they were bottom two for the last two(?) weeks (even though they said it may or may not be bottom two). I think if they're left to the end this tie they'll actually be going. Which would be a shame considering her skill level.

True on the editing, which makes me wonder if they think it helps or hurts her. I'm thinking they are thinking it helps her. lol Derek and Jennifer were first in the dialidol thing.

Wilson, I didn't understand what I was supposed to be seeing on that site. Until anyone is 50 and has had multiple surgeries, it's hard to describe the toll it takes on you. Add to it a full-time+ job of dance practice and I can completely understand why she is crying. Some people cry from pain, I don't. Some people cry from frustration, I don't. Some people cry because they are incredibly fatigued...I do sometimes. It's hell getting older.

Kukd- the link didn't work right. It's an article about the Israeli version of DWTS- and the same-sex couple (two females) on the show, which is a first on any version...try this one: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/nov/02/strictly-israel-same-sex-couple

I didn't like the pre-choosing of the dances for the teams. Some of them got fun, energetic, entertaining ones. Others - not so much. I think the deck was stacked against Bristol - Don't get me wrong - I enjoyed Kelli during her season, but that dance??? Boooorrring!!!! (Maybe Derek could have made something more interesting of it). And the same for the tango Kurt ended up with - the most boring tango I can remember. I actually think it is probably time for Kurt or Bristol to go, but I believe those dances sealed their fate.

I loved the giant leprechan!!! I guess if you're going to go green, you might as well go all the way - toes to top (with glitter!!!)

Kitt, I can't help but wonder if Jennifer is asking to go home. I agree with those that say she whines; however, she is 50 years old and has had neck surgery and cancer. Your body can only keep up that pace so long. The way she was saying ...can she make it another dance; another week, etc. and then reading Derek's twitters makes me wonder if she just can't physically do this. Why take a chance on injuring your body for a lifetime for a temporary show? It's not worth it. I liked Team Kristi better last night. I loved their outfits and while the others were great, felt Team Kristi was just more cohesive. Lol, Spoton, the giant leprechan was hysterical, as were the comments coming from the previous guy in yellow. I thought Rick did great last night...best I've seen him dance.

I don't like her whining either, but I think it's honest. To me, her fake aura comes more from where she acts like she's young and full of life, when I think more likely she's anxious about the votes and completely worn out. Cricket I'd think she was asking to leave, but there are only three weeks left (I say only - probably doesn't feel like "only" after what they've already done!) and I see her as too much of a competitor for that. I'm watching the results show online and Bristol says she just wants to go home - might be the time for her to leave. She also says she misses her son, it sounds like he's not there with her but still in Alaska. That must be hard. In case anyone wants spoiling it's been mustly bumpf so far, but they've revealed: Brandy and Maks are safe. Bristol and Mark are in jeopardy.

Also they're doing 200th episode week awards: Most Dramatic Moment went to Marie Osmond (for fainting). Best Worst Dancer goes to Kenny Mays.

Jennifer's arms have been quite bruised week after week, too. Since her cancer was diagnosed during a physical for DWTS, I'm a little concerned about that. Bruising is one of the symptoms, so I'm betting the cancer (no matter what kind it is, or how early it is diagnosed) is not only physically affecting her, but mentally. She also may be very amenic, and that'll wear you out, too. Personally, I think her breakdowns are real...very real, and not whining at all.
