Dancing with the Stars - Season 9!

[Chimichanga]

I really liked Kelly and Louis's dance. Love the costumes

Derek is one creepy Mofo!

I still really like Mark and Lacey/Anna. I know their scores were low - I spent all of my votes on them. I think he just had a bad dance because his partner got sick. Normally he's a more solid dance.

And I much preferred Team Tango to Team Paso. If the Paso is a more difficult dance to do as a group because it's hard to keep it tight (like Bruno said) then WHY would have have had it as part of the competition?!?!?

[Anna Low]

Funny - I told DH last night that I thought Derek was creepy. He asked why and I told him it wasn't anything I could pinpoint - I just found him to be icky.

Loved Kelly and Louie and Michael and Anna. I'm kind of sick of Mya (not sure why) and would love to see Aaron and Joanna go. Donny, for his age, is just phenomenal. I think the judges are a little harsh with him, athough his routines appear to be far more complicated than anyone elses.

I so do not think that Aaron's dance deserved 10s I thought it was spastic. The routines are just not great, and not at all what I expect the pros to be doing.

I actually liked Karrrrrrina and Aaron's dance, despite disliking them both. I thought the choreography was pretty difficult and he did a good job with it. If he would just dance and never speak, I would be pleased.

I'm bored with Mya. I think starting off so well really hurt her. She just hasn't improved much since week one, and her personality really hasn't blossomed.

I was shocked that the judges gave Kelly so much praise. I like her, but I still think she looked nervous and there were portions of that dance that were downright awkward.

Donny is entertaining (he had better be, considering) and does an alright job, but I think he's like Aaron - annoying. He's another who I'd prefer just not to speak.

It would be SO sad if Mark went home. I love Lacey and her being gone was a bummer. His dance with Anna was a mess.

Who's left? Oh, Michael and Anna. I wanted to like him, but he's a pretty awkward dancer. He always looks so...coached.

The Derek and Joanna beach thing was so - odd. I didn't like it at all. I agree with you guys, he doesn't come off well. I think it's because he's so immature.

I have no clue who will go home. I think Michael and Anna would be fair. I'm worried about Mark and Lacey, and I hope that if they are in the dance off she will be back to dance. I think in the name of fairness Kelly should go. Like I said, she's adorable and I like her a lot, but she's not on the same level as Mark, Joanna, Aaron, or Mya. She should go before they do.

ICAM. I was shocked at how they raved over her and that they gave her 8s. They clearly saw something different than I did!

I would love for Aaron to go home tonight! I think either Kelly or Michael will be one of the ones going home. I actually feel like they're about on par in terms of dancing ability, but Michael is a much better performer. I also wish Joanna would go home--Derek is skeezy, and she's inept. She didn't move her hips at ALL yesterday! I hope Mark doesn't leave--what crappy circumstances he had to deal with.

Going back to the Mark and Melissa thing--I can totally understand being disappointed to go from winning it all one season to having a partner who just doesn't get it the next season. But for him to be so visibly annoyed and to put on such a huge bitchface for the entire season was childish and inappropriate. It was exceedingly unprofessional. And I'll definitely be skipping the performance of his "band" tonight--I can't stand him OR Derek anymore.

[Chimichanga]

I actually want to see the band... it will likely be a mess and that might be a boost to how I'm feeling lately (just blah lately).

I like Kelly and I think she's got spunk. I also think I like her because she has a bit of extra padding - not fat, but not like Mya and Joanna.

I think it's a toss up of who might go. We're at that point (with the exception of Michael IMO) where there's no clear cut "bad" dancer. I still like Michael, but he's not as good as the rest.

[LeslieR]

don't get me wrong, I like Kelly, too. I just don't think her dancing last night was as good as they made it out to be. She really needs to pull it together and step it up.

I really liked Mark in his first season (when he was dancing w/ Sabrina). It's so sad that he's gotten a big head but he should already know that they won't let you repeat like the did in the Cheryl and Julianne days. The producers always handicapped you the next season by giving you a subpar partner (Cheryl/Wayne! Julianne and that DJ guy - he was terrible btw). So really, sit back and let someone win for a change.

BTW, I think Gilles was robbed last year. No way was Shawn the better dancer.

[Adaya]

I think Mya is wasting too much energy on trying to please Len. She got pretty good comments from the other judges but she seemed too disappointed to really appreciate them. I think she's great and I hope she'll stick around for a while.

Not digging Joanna at all. The judges seem to be all goo goo gaga over her and I don't get it.

Team Tango rocked it last night! They worked very well together.
