It's time for the Semi-Finals Result Show!

Tonight the filler will be super-sized because they plan on doing two hours starting with the performance recap show......

Hmmm. The way they were talking last night, I thought there was gonna be more than just that in the first hour....... besides the backstage confessionals, I mean.......

In the main show, we'll have the Ballroom Kids do their final round dances, Julianne will be singing, and last year's champs Kristi and Mark will be dancing to an Aretha Franklin number tonight........

Oh well. Lance and Lacey have the lead with their best two dances ever, scoring a 28 and a 29, getting their first 10s of the season. (Len's the only one who hasn't given them a 10, yet)

Brooke/Derek and Warren/Kym are tied for 2nd place 8 points behind Lance/Lacey and Cody/Julianne are 3 points behind the tied teams in DFL.

It's gonna be interesting to see how this pans out.........

Drink of the night

American Honey - Wild Turkey Bourbon and Honey Liqueur bottled in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. Very sweet, great in tea.

Snack of the night

Seafood Gumbo (includes Andouille sausage) with fried green tomatoes as a starter. For Snidget, I have a choice of rice or cornbread.

How much sugar did you put in the corn bread? If its just a tad I'll have that with the gumbo, if it is really sweet I'll have the rice. I like cornbread both ways, but I only like the sweet stuff with some things.

Actually it's my mom's recipe: buttermilk, bit of onion, tiny diced hot peppers .... it's her gumbo/chili cornbread.

Or great hot from the oven, with honey butter.

Well if is is a savory cornbread, I'll have that.

Sounds good to me, serve me up!

I love the food. Do you have room for one more person?
"RE: Drink of the night"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 09:30 PM
Always room for more.

For once, I am glad they did a recap show. Loved Brooke and Derek's Samba. Warren's shoes seem to defeat him, because he certainly has moves. I would have thought he had time to order the right shoes. I dated a guy that wore a 13EEE and he'd get shoes in 2 weeks.

Lance and Lace ... oh dear, I hate to go there but. That mambo was fabulous! And the Jitterbug was great!

"Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 08:45 PM
Kirill and Hannah are up first.

They drew Tony as their pro mentor.

Dancing the Cha Cha Cha to "Get Ready"

"RE: Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 08:49 PM
That Kirill really has great form. He dances as though he really wants to do this and enjoys it. Hannah does the right steps, but I get the feeling she'd rather be doing something else.

Kirill's leg and hip action reminded me a lot of Max. He has real potential.
"Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 08:53 PM
Mitchell and Maria are up next.

They drew Julianne as a pro mentor.

Dancing the Samba to "Mas Que Nada", according to my captions..... sounds like traditional Samba music to me.....

"RE: Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 08:55 PM
Very fluid, smooth, very mature. They are very good together. I like them.
"Oh Snap!"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 08:58 PM
Len said that they were better than Julianne and Mark were when they were at that age.......

It's gonna get ugly when Julianne gets out there.......

"Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 08:57 PM
Finally we have Craig and Samantha.

They drew Maksim as their Pro mentor...... *places pillows on floor and breaks out the mops*

Dancing the Jive to "Rockin' Robin" (screechy version, OW!)

"RE: Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 08:59 PM
Ahhhh, Maks.......thud.
"RE: Ballroom Kids: Finals"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:05 PM
*picks Whimsey up, and dusts her off*

I'm glad I put the pillows down......

"Aretha Franklin"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:03 PM
"Chain of Fools"

This has a myriad of pro dancers, I think they're the ones who did the demos last night..........

"RE: Aretha Franklin"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 09:07 PM
Ahhh, Dmitri ....thud.

Thanks for the pillows, vince.

"RE: Aretha Franklin"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:09 PM
Just as long as you keep hitting pillows, and not floor.......
"RE: Aretha Franklin"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 09:16 PM
No worries, hon. I know you'd catch me when I thud.
"Leona Lewis"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:13 PM
"Bleeding Love"


So that's what the name of this song is!

Uhoh, is that Maks dancing?

"RE: Leona Lewis"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:16 PM
Maks and Karina did the dance for Leona......
"RE: Leona Lewis"
Posted by Snidget on 11-18-08 at 09:16 PM
Whimsey may not survive the night.
"Julianne Hough"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:22 PM
"My Hallelujah Song"

Derek, Mark, and Lacey also are on dance floor......

"RE: Julianne Hough"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 09:27 PM
Well, that snapped me back to reality, like a slap in the face.
"John Legend"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:30 PM
"Green Light"


This time there's a crowd's worth of dancers in front of him......

"Aretha Franklin"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:44 PM
"Respect"

Kristi and Mark, last season's champions dancing along......

"RE: Aretha Franklin"
Posted by Snidget on 11-18-08 at 09:47 PM
She seemed to be enjoying herself more than I remember from last year. She was always really good, but it really is nice to see her having some fun.
"RE: Aretha Franklin"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 09:48 PM
You could tell they both were loving it! Spectacular.
"Filler Segments"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 09:51 PM
Earlier we had a segment on the relatives that are the emotional rocks of our stars, attending each week, or in Lance's grandfather's case, watching every week.

Then they had a segment in the boiler room where they talked good and smack about each other........

Who's Safe?: Lance and Lacey! Brooke and Derek!

OK, ABC folks, it worked.

I *heart* Grandpa Bass.

"Our final finalist:"

"RE: DWTS#7, Episode 19, ECST"
Posted by vince3 on 11-18-08 at 10:02 PM
Oooooh, for the first dance next week, all 3 couples must dance to the same song.........
"Thanks, vince"
Posted by whimsey on 11-18-08 at 10:03 PM
Great job!

A nice slice of pie for you.

We only got an hour show on CTV. Looks like we didn't miss much
"RE: Thanks, vince"
Posted by vince3 on 11-19-08 at 07:19 AM
The Ballroom Kids dances were during the recap show, though. You missed them..........
"RE: Thanks, vince"
Posted by qwertypie on 11-19-08 at 09:23 AM
True. I actually would have liked to see them perform.
