I thought the closing song was (comically) in poor; I couldn't help but laugh:

"Too much, too little, too late.....it's over."

We laughed about that too. *giggle*

I watched last night and even got my husband involved. The way I see it, it's either John or Joey. I am not sure why the judges tend to rag on Joey a bit because in my opinion the only thing he did wrong last night was wear pants that were to short! I loved his slide and when he jumped over his partners head I was jumping in my seat. He tries hard and I feel like he does feel the music and tries to share the excitement with the audience.
John is very good too, but sometimes he goes into very inappropriate facial expressions for the dance and that kind of throws me off. I know he probably does this because he is a bit self conscious or insecure, but it bothers me in romantic dancing.
Last night the Tango music was terrible for everyone BUT John and I think not having what I call real TANGO music that we know really hurts our judgement watching it.
Evander did ok as a dance, just not so hot as Jive. He pretty much lets his partner carry them and after a while he becomes a monkey or her back. LOL I like him in general, but glad I don't have to watch again on screen.
Rachel is agreeably, pretty, long & lean and very flexible, and very eager to please, but I did not see the beautiful movement or head snaps that mean TANGO. They seem to give her high marks for the ability to extend her long pretty legs. Good, but 3rd in my opinion.
Poor Kelly, she does try very hard and does some things very well, but I agree with the judges that she seems to just memorize her steps and never feels the music. She does look great in her costumes though and if she could just forget the judges and get into the music she could be a lot better.

I agree, they need new hosts. I keep waiting for them to come out with America's funniest home video clips.
I've developed a new crush on John. I love how he gets into the dances each week. So far he is my favorite. I think Rachel has done a great job, she seems to be putting in a lot of hard work.
I think they should have gotten rid of Evander last week. Trista wasn't great but she was better than Evander, by far. but if things go as I think they should, then the soap star should go next. It's going to be a hard choice with the top three. I'm rooting for John.

I have to disagree with everyone who thinks Joey did so well. What he brings more than anything to his dancing is personality. Technically, he is just not that good. He can do the steps but I think he's really quite awkward in his execution.

I definitely think John and Rachel are the best.

I just started watching the show last night so I missed the first episode. I have to say that it was a travesty that Trista was voted off first. She is far and away a better dancer than Rachel, Joey and Evander, by a mile. I agree with the judges that she didn't evoke the necessary emotion in her dance last night, which may have been her undoing, but technically she was excellent.

1. I cannot believe I am watching this. I stumbled on it last week and it caught my attention.

2. I agree with Tahj on Joey. Yes he has personality, but he and his partner were out of sync several times and he is also awkward at times.

3. I missed Evander last night, but he should get an award for doing the most with the least from what I saw last week. At the end when asked if he'd keep dancing you could see he'd had enough. But, it was right for him to go.

4. John is great fun to watch.

5. Trista - just came in last night during her little drama about the tension of dancing this way, so I kinda didn't care when she left, though I did think she was better than Rachel and Evander.

6. I'm still confused about the scoring as I missed a few minutes each week. Apparently at this point they're using raw scores and giving ranks to each couple based on those and then combining the previous week's fan voting with the current week's panel voting. Does that seem right?

On #6--Yes, I think that's right. Apparently we can vote online all week, too.

I missed Evander, but it sounds like I didn't miss much. The rest all seemed to do well. I really enjoyed both Rachel and John's tangos. Kelly was much better this week. Joey has a lot of energy, but his sloppy foot work is distracting.
