Take that back Samantha, or I'll make Santa put you and your kids on the permanent naughty list!
Please keep all discussion of tonight's filler, filler, filler and results all two hours of it on this thread until after the show has aired on the West Coast.Remember, no sig pics, every time you use a sig pic on the ECST an Osmond learns how to dial in their votes.
Refresh my memory: which sign of the Apocalypse would Marie's win represent?
Pestilence?
After that doll dance, I was pretty sure it was the graves giving up their dead. Followed by the dead trying to samba.
That works, too.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I love RTVW.'specially Estee and Snidget.
Please no more dead doll flashbacks.Crown this seasons champion. Looks like tonight's dance will be one they did before based on the costumes.
Two dances tonight for judge's show.
One couple out at the start.
Oh no, more recaps of last night.
Backstage with Samantha.What will you miss the most.
Marie says she'll miss the #8. The friendships, but the spray tanning not so much.
Mel also will miss the people and the crew. Helio says Julianne and Mel adds she will miss Maks.
Chaos ensues.
Tom says great friendships up until 12 seconds ago.
They will reveal who is third after a special guest.
My heart will go on by Celine Dion.
Excuse me while I poke my eardrums out with knitting needles.
LAST EDITED ON 11-27-07 AT 09:29 PM (EST)I actualy like Celine, but I think we found the sign of the apocalypse we were looking for in that song.
BTW, I like Celine because she seems to be a "real person": see how she watches the dances more that she focuses on the song? Celine loves her some reality shows.
eta - song
I like most of her music, but the Titanic theme is just so over-wrought I can't stand it.
NOT IN FOR ANOTHER SHOCK!!!!Take that back Samantha, or I'll make Santa put you and your kids on the permanent naughty list!
Don't forget: Celine wants to be a contestant next season. Consider this as a sneak preview. (And get extra needles.)
The couple that has come in third place.Review of the judges' comments.
*gnaws on knuckle*
Cue the scary music.
Leaving right now is....
MARIE AND JONATHAN!!!!
Tom jokes that she is in her 70's when she brings up age. She says it was like a Cinderella story. She casts the judges as the step sisters.I don't care what you say I'm a dancer.
Medley of all her dances.
I think it was better for Marie to finish 3rd. She got to be on every episode for the exposure. But she didn't win and anger alot of viewers who did not think she deserved to win. I think it would have also hurt her if she had won. It is amazing how many people were ready to get very angry with her if she won. This way she can leave and everyone that wanted NotMarie to win will be happy. Plus her fans got to see her make it to the final episode.
I nominate Loree to come to the Middle East Peace Summit in Annapolis. She'll definitely bring us peace.{{points up}}
And the world lives for anotherdaytwelve seconds.
Even the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is singing "HALLELUJIA"!!!!!
Marie and Jonathan get to do their favorite dance of the season.Tango to Dancing the Tango.
Strange goings on...taking a trip down the long strange road this competition has been.
First couple to say goodbye does their fox trot.
Josie Maran and Alec To Walking my Baby back home.
A look at the laughs the final three had.
Excellent - Maks takes the prize:
Mel: I ballroomed my hair."
Maks: Good, now ballroom your a$$".and
Mel, weeping into Maks's shoulder: "God!"
Maks: Just call me Maks!Hilarious!
Albert Reed and Anna with their Elvis inspired Cha Cha
I really miss Albert. I thought he would be in the top 5. Little did I know about the juggernaut that is the Cheetah Girl and Marie voters.
I agree with Tom. I wish Albert had stayed a couple more weeks to see if he had any real potential. I think it could have been possible.He wasn't really worse than Wayne or Floyd.
Yep, I wish Wayne and Floyd had gone out before him so we could see what he could have done.
Review of dances as the woman began to dominate the men weeks 3 and 4.Third eliminated couple Wayne Newton and Cheryl
Discussion of Wayne's health problems, he wasn't cleared to dance by the doctors tonight. He will be going on the Dancing with the Stars Tour.
Finalists getting ready for the last dance.Finalist's friends and family montage.
Second couple who won't be dancingFloyd Mayweather Jr and Karina
He is in training for the fight a week and a half away and he's worried about pulling muscles before the fight.
Dancing With The Stars = mirror ball trophyChampionship fight = 1 gazillion dollars
Not dancing with the princess of darkness = priceless.
Dancing the Foxtrot Mark Cuban and KymTo King of the Road.
Recap of Latin night drama.The Faint and then Jane's going to the hospital right before the results and the elimination of Sabrina Bryan and Mark
They are performing their Cha Cha to Doncha.
Mark Cuban was great ... but I could see Albert Reed watching and thinking "I was much better than that".A final with Mel/Helio/Cameron/Albert would be nice.
>Mark Cuban was great ... but
>I could see Albert Reed
>watching and thinking "I was
>much better than that".
>
And he would be right! Too bad no one knew who he was.
Tom lets them cheer for a bit. Put the teleprompter back up. Plug for the Live Tour. Drew and Apolo will be on the tour.Samantha talks to Drew. Drew says he has a problem with each going to commercial with this is the best season.
Apolo the #1 thing on thier minds is relief. Everyone comes out a better person.
More Dancing to come including the finalist final routines they do their favorite routines, but can spice them up a bit.
Is it wrong that I'm beginning to think it was ok to watch??Drew, funny as always, asks the jidges: Why did you keep saying "best season ever" - WTF?!?
Samantha cuts off Apolo in mid-blathering - what's left to say about her hosting abilities?
One hour down, one to go.Jane Seymour and Tony with their Viennese Waltz to Piano Man
LAST EDITED ON 11-27-07 AT 10:14 PM (EST)Montage of the stars kicking it up a notch.
and a mention of Marie's Dad dying.
Cameron Mathison and Edyta doing the Paso Doble to the Superman theme
Second lamest dance routine ever (that doll fiasco being the worst of course).And dood, if you are going to wear pants that tight? Two words ... boxer briefs. (I could see the panty lines.)
Cameron ... sniff, sniff ... lovely .... classic .... sweaty .... shirtless.So wrong.
Cameron takes his shirt off and hands it to Samantha.Jan 7th. Marc Cuban give Cameron his jacket.

Before the last dance Celine sings again "Taking Chances"
Finalist repeat their final dances which will be scored and added to last night. (oh need to get the spreadsheet ready)Montage of the strengths of the final two.
Oh dear, fog and dramatic music to introduce the final two.Talk about over-wrought....
For the final dance they do their favorite routine. They will do the Mambo. Last time they got a 9 from Carrie Ann. More energy, more exciting, but same routine.
I hadn't seen this performance before. Quite good. Saucey.
Dancing to IntrumentalThey looked like they had so much fun.
Len. I've got to say you are a Spice Girl and I know you do all that boogaloo. You are a revalation. This mambo was incredible, fabulous.
Bruno. Truely magnificent. You are a complete dancer, your drive and professionalism you are a star.
Carrie Ann. You dance like you were born to do that. She stands up and applauds.
She give Tom one last kiss and he says he is going to miss that.
I get the impression Maks thinks he deserves the prize because of all he has been through in all the seasons he's danced. Maybe he's right. The man definitely deserves a trophy for his had work, talent and skill. Oh yeah, and I like Mel, too.
10~10~1030
85 out of 90 total.
The Banana Man Quick Step. They are not adding a lift, may be a risk.Dancing to Hey! (not sure the name of the song)
He didn't let her do the slide down the leg they just did a good long kiss at the end.Bruno. The engine was full power and the turbo was engaged. Julianne you are the sunny side of life and you are a champ.
Carrie Ann. That was my favorite dance. Watch what you do to these people.
Len. You take a risk every time you go on the track, and you take a risk every dance. Great Dancing only comes from great music so we get a plug for the band.
Will it be worth it if you are empty handed. Helio says yes and gives thanks to everyone10~10~10
30 adds to 84 out of 90
Get some reactions from the peeps they didn't talk to.
Except for Jennie, Tom says to just roll the clip of the fall, she loves it when we do that.I think they've played it at least 2-3 times already tonight.
Teamwork Montage for Mel and Maks
Teamwork Montage for Helio and Julianne.The moment is here. Judges scores from both nights with the votes from the public.
Mel and Maks Highest scoring couple of the season.
Helio and Julianne, loved your energy are you the champion.After 10 week the winners and new champions are.
Heartbeat music.
Helio and Julianne.
I was reallly rooting for Mel and Maks, but I'm happy for Helio.
I would have preferred that Mel B won. But I am okay with Helio winning.Jimmy Kimmel called this one from the beginning of the series. He said the public always votes for the cute little guy like Drew and Apollo. Add Julianne as Helio's partner and he was going to win. Now will they continue to give Julianne these kind of partners? Or will she get her own Wayne Newton next season like Cheryl?
And will Maks finally get the trophy..........Stay tuned.
Justice was served Helio was the best dancer that was not a professional dancer before the competition begin.
Snidget! Hon, you did another great season of hosting. Thank you.
Add me to the Thanks!
LAST EDITED ON 11-28-07 AT 12:55 PM (EST)This episode is The Filler Show: ABC is milking DWTS for all it's worth. I recorded DWTS, but watched a very interesting show on PBS about love and marriage during the first hour of DWTS.
