Ahhh just thought I would add my own 2 cents

I for one, am voting for Mark Cuban. I did not do this until last night, but I am in full support for him. I hope he goes a long way. I have watched every season of this show, and the people who are horrible and get better and better every week are the ones I like the best. Someone comes out, with dance training, and dances fabulously in week 1 doesnt impress me at all. Someone who comes out and trips all over his feet, and tries hard, and wants it, and DOES improve, impresses me a lot. Emmitt Smith comes to mind as an example of that who proves my feelings are shared by many. People like that make me think it *IS* possible to *LEARN* how to dance, and thats what I like.

I dont think Floyd, or Wayne, improved at all as a contrast - and are appropriately gone. I think Jane Seymour or Mel B will be next to go. I think theyre wonderful dancers, but as non-americans (one of whom with a lot of negative publicity) theres a lot to face.

I, too, was shocked at Mel in the bottom 2! If she goes, I can't get my weekly Maks fix - and she has been dancing well, too.

Mark is in the league of Emmett and the sportsguy from season two - Jerry Reed? Non dancer who does improve.

Anyway -the caliber of dancers has been excellent this season (no Master Ps thank goodness) and future eliminations will be tough.

I wonder if Mark has been buying votes...

I have to admit that most of the time I don't vote based on the star I vote based on which dancer is the cutest
... That would be

The big story of last nights performances - Marie Osmond fainted while waiting her critiques! They said when she came to with everyone over her, her first words were "oh, crap".


Mel and Maks were #1 last night with their samba and I hope it keeps them in the competition.


Mark Cuban's samba was entertaining and he has shown improvement. But still not up to par with the rest.

As for Cameron and Edyta's rumba - I know I needed a cold shower!


Jane Seymour did the rumba and was good but I'm wondering how she will do with the faster dances such as the jive and samba.

Since Bones and House are on tonight won't get to see all of the results show.

Mel's Samba was great, no one else did half as good as her, I also hope this keeps her around. I'm sorry but Mark Cuban can train for a year and he still would not be a good dancer, he is no where near the level of the others, he needs to go. Sabrina's Rumba was fantastic, and I thought Helio and Julianne didn't do as badly as the judges said. Jennie did good on the actual dancing, but she just didn't have the spirit needed for the Samba

I used your words Katie because it was exactly what I thought, too.

(using my own words
)

I know it will be hard, the people left are really good. I think maybe Marie will be the next to go, though.

Another week, another set of dances and Mel & Maks get their first 30!


Personally, I thought Cameron moved great in his samba - man, I was watching his hips...


Jane and Marie were the bottom scorers. Jane really needed to pick up her feet in her jive and Marie just didn't have the attack needed for the paso. But they may not be in the bottom two.

Since the World Series is over, I won't get to watch all of the results show.
