"Season 18, Finale (Part I)"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 09:56 PM
Two part finale. Last chance to vote. Mark shows up in a sling.

Starting with Judges' Choice. Can barely hear Len. I think he said they're doing same dances as last time.


Thanks to tribephyl for the sigpic!

"James & Peta - Tango"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:00 PM
Song: Adore You (Remix)

Horrible song choice. That one would definitely be better with the sound muted.

TMI: Bruno likes it tight.

Scores: 9+10+10=29

"Meryl & Maks - Argentine Tango"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:08 PM
Filler: Maks doesn't need her to be better. "You just be you, and I'll be better." (True, but I still won't be voting for him.)

Song: (unknown instrumental)

Scores: 10+10+10=30

"Candace & Mark - Quickstep"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:18 PM
Filler: 9 am Sunday - She's crying because he shoved her face to fix her posture (I would have bitten him!); he says she's over reacting. 11 am Sunday - Blocking the dance on stage he dislocated his shoulder doing a lift.

Cleared to dance. During the commercial, he took off the sling.

Song: Umbrella (butchered by the live band)

Bit of a flub at the beginning. I can see him coaching her through the dance.

Score: 9+9+9=27

After the tongue bath the judges gave them, I expected higher scores.

"Amy & Derek - Salsa"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:21 PM
Filler: Amy's back is still bothering her.

Song: Ran Kan Kan

Scores: 10+10+10=30

"James & Peta - Freestyle"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:27 PM
Song: Original Don

Scores: 10+9+10=29

"Meryl & Maks - Freestyle"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:34 PM
Song: Latch

Not quite a kiss at the end. If that was an homage to their journey, it looked like a lot of him throwing her around and her just letting him. *shrug*

Scores: 10+10+10=30

Judges want to give them 11s.

"Candace & Mark - Freestyle"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:40 PM
Song: Canned Heat (? that's what Shazam says it is)

Fugliest costumes of the night.

Scores: 8+8+8=24

Their costumes were awful and so was that routine! She has improved very much, yes, but I don't think she should have a place in the finals.

For some reason I keep thinking they got cut. Maybe that's because they should have been.

"Amy & Derek - Freestyle"
Posted by udg on 05-19-14 at 10:59 PM
Song: Dare You

Defying gravity. Compare and contrast, kids. Maks pushes his partner around. Derek helps his partner to fly.

Scores: 10+9+10=29

Gotta agree. The rope trick was not dancing.
"Results"

Safe:
Meryl & Maks
Amy & Derek

Eliminated:
James & Peta

Means Candace & Mark are safe. (Boo.)

Harumph. I think Candace must the be the religious right's revenge for all the same-sex marriages being allowed now.

Maks looks like he has the hots for Meryl. Not only is she physically attractive, but she's naturally talented in dance that he probably hasn't had in the last 13 seasons. Also, she's a natural kiss #####.

I kind of wish that White was still here...fans should have kept him in. We'd get some really good dancing. No offense to the other couples but Meryl, White and Amy were the 3 standouts--dancing wise.
