Never before seen footage, blah, blah. I'm half watching. I may post if something catches my attention, but I won't be doing a play-by-play.

Also, there's some severe weather blowing in, so I may miss some of the show tonight.

Won by a landslide... James & Peta!

Since they had to air the dress rehearsal footage due to Amy's injury, they're dancing it live tonight. Coincidentally, Team Loca also has all 3 of the finalists (plus Danica who SHOULD have been one).

And, Mark still has to coach Candace through the dance. And Maks wipesout at the end.

Sound malfunction. She pulls her ear bug.

(Not a fan. Fast forwarded through the rest.)

Drew & Cheryl - Jive redux

Erin's moments (I finally learned her name!)

Charlie & Meryl 45 second dance after commercials.

Nene & the female pros dance together.

Danica & Val's Beauty & the Beast redux.

Split screen shows Amy & Derek prepping for next dance on one side and Cody taking selfies with his tongue out with a bunch of girls from the audience.

After commercials, Cody performs music.

Dress rehearsals are R-rated versions of the live show.

Charlie & Sharna's Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious redux (complete w/ classic DWTS camera work). Umbrella breaks, but Charlie didn't drop his cane this time.

James & Peta's Michael Jackson dance redux.

Ariana Grande performs. (FF'ing through that.)

Amber Riley performs.

Up next... final dances!

Song: Rather Be

Scores: 10+10+10=30

Too bad she won't win it all. *sigh*

Song: Sir Duke

Scores: 9+9+9=27

Song: Glowing

Len says this might be his last season.

Scores: 10+10+10=30

If you assume an infinite number of universes, there might be one in which M&M don't win it all, but I don't think it's the one I live in.

First, Christina Perri sings Human. It's a little awkward because the F3 are just standing on stage watching as CP sits at the piano and plays/sings. Oh, they finally cut to the clips from the season. Nope, back to the F3 looking mostly just bored.

Third place: Candace & Mark (*phew*)

(I'm going to pretend Amy has a chance to win for a few more seconds...)

And the champions are... Meryl and Maks.

(What a startling ending. I'm so startled!)

Did not know where to put this: LOVED the outtakes from dress rehearsals.

And, I am glad how this turned out. I would have been happy with either of the top two.

AND THANK YOU UDG FOR YOUR WORK!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all your recapping during the season udg! I often taped the show and would come here to see what had happened.

It was a great season. I am happy that Maks won. He should've won when he made the finals with Mel B. Amy was awesome and inspiring and while I don't like Derek, I have a new found respect for his choreography skills. He is the best on the show.

I felt like we where gypped watching Charlie and Meryl dance. I was more interested in that than most of the other dancers and music acts!

Their dance was weird because there was no announcement. They'd mentioned it on night one, but when it was actually time, it was just, commercial->dance. I almost missed it.

Me too. I even rewound the DVR because I thought I missed the beginning.
