Keep all discussion of tonight's final performances until the West coast finishes using the brain bleach or the pillows from watching the free style dances.
Gosh doesn't take long for three couples to walk in.First two rounds tonight.
Judges Round then free style. Both new dances
Bruno comes in to help with the Cha Cha.To Raise Your Glass.
LAST EDITED ON 05-21-12 AT 08:08 PM (EST)Are the confetti cannons going to get a work out tonight, or just for this dance.
Len. Loud and Proud. That was as good as I've ever seen in 14 seasons of Cha Cha.
B. Intoxicating, Hip action leaves me green with envy. Placement was excellent.
C. This is where we first saw the magic, now clean sharp defined, grown miles.
Scores 10~10~10 30/30
It was good, but not 30-worthy IMHO. William seems like a really nice guy, though. I want him to be second, after Donald.
I'm guessing Paso from the matador get up, Yikes Mark has the hat on.Len helping out. Big Strong Shapes he says.
Don't know the song, but classic bullfighting type Spanish music.
LAST EDITED ON 05-21-12 AT 08:21 PM (EST)Wasn't my favorite Paso, but I'm sure the judges will prove me wrong.
B. That was a Paso Doble full of vivid artistry. Shapes extended to infinit, technical brilliance.
CA. Prima Diva of the DWTS.
Len. Like a buffet of Spanish Tapas, full of tidbits, very satisfying, fabulous.
Scores: 10~10~10 30/30
That was just okay to me.
Tom says Peta is wearing most of whole dress. Argentine Tango with CA. Bigger movements, no filler.Jem - They
LAST EDITED ON 05-21-12 AT 08:30 PM (EST)They certainly use his strength to good effect.
CA. Loved it again. I didn't see more content, there was a new crispness and light and shade.
Len. Far more content, like the set up and intensity, lifts are great. A tad careful. Vast improvement.
Bruno. I think you have been clever, subtle and intimate. Strong story telling. Very effective. Liked it very much.
Scores: 10~9~10 29/30
Well, carp! Len isn't gonna give that a 10, is he? DD should get 10s just for looking that good in that suit, LOL! Perfect color for him.
*head-wall-repeat*
And I see the costumer who made dresses for Edyta has returned.
You noticed that too, huh? Tom caught it before we did.
Objection Tango.
LAST EDITED ON 05-21-12 AT 08:41 PM (EST)Kinda meh for me. Really didn't need the simulated sex act thrusts in the middle.
Len. What you do you do well. I liked it.. The lift and changes of rhythm. Too predictable. Wanted to see you bring something different.
B. You were like two devils unleashed upon the earth in a Latin extravaganza. Sinful but so good.
CA is happy. About breaking new ground. Argues with Len as we go to break.
Scores: 10~9~10 59/60

Yeah, I could've lived without that, for sure.
I thought it was the best executed of the three freestyles. Much better than that mishmash that Mark did.
LAST EDITED ON 05-22-12 AT 00:38 AM (EST)Believe it or not, I liked Donald's the best. And considering I am not a big fan of country/line dancing that is saying something.
ETA -- I thought Cheryl's choreo failed William.
Quickstep/jive/lindyhop.Her at the mike, Singing with the Swing? I don't remember the name of the music, but Toons use it a lot.
Lifts seemed awkward and detracted from the dance for me.B. Fast and flamboyant tour de force. So much content so fast. On the money all the way.
CA..Fabulous performer, That was the dance of a champion.
Len. If I'm dreaming don't wake me up.
Scores: 10~10~10 60/60
Get a brand new song tonight for the dance tomorrow.

Absolutely in agreement with this! And it looked like Katherine was wearing a diaper!
If it was ANYBODY else, Len would have taken points off for the amount of time spent singing at the start I'm gonna have to go through my TV screen after him!!
It was as if she was dancing in army boots. Did not deserve tens.
Peta almost wearing a Cowgirl costume. Liked Cheryl's and Drews freestyle and pegs what William and Katherine would do. Thinks this will be unexpected.Cowboy Troy Featured.
Play Chicken with the Train Train.
Okay, THAT was awesome!! Look out Len, if you diss them again!
That was fun, Cheesehats in the house.CA. Oh My God. Standing up. No offense to anyone in the past season, my favorite finals and my favorite dance tonight.
Len. In football catches win matches and chances win dances. Fantastic.
Bruno. I cannot resist a ride in the wild wild west. County inspired triumph.
Could Len finally give Donald a Ten?
Scores: 10~10~10 59/60
Lots of fun, but still missing the beat in several areas.
