*sigh* Another week, another blast from the past. This week they brought back the Team Dance.

This time, it's Team Tango, vs. Team Mambo.

If it is not worth doing well, it is worth doing it repeatedly on a reality TV show.

Something's up.

Melissa didn't descend the steps when it came to intro time......

Injury?

She's not cleared to compete tonight due to complications to her rib injury........

Details as to what that means for the competition, later.....

His shoulder injury is still bothering him, so the doctor gave him a cortizone shot, and it's affecting his ability to do lifts/flips for the dance......

Dancing the Lindy Hop to Go Daddy-O?

That looked like fun, but he was almost too cartoony for my taste.

6 votes per phone/email, but details about Melissa's injury will affect this later......

I agree -- that was a little cartoony. The hair was so big and tall! I'm not a huge fan of the Lindy Hop, but they put a lot of energy into the dance and the audience seemed to enjoy it.

She tried to clean up her act to try to impress Len, but it backfired!

That didn't wow me as much a some other Paso's have but it was pretty darn good.

If I really like a dance, I'll rewind and watch it again. This one got the rewind treatment Kim and Derrik are a good combination.

Chuck finally started to feel like a contender with his Samba dance last week......

Dancing the Cha Cha Cha to I'm Outta Love?


"RE: Chuck and Julianne"
Posted by Snidget on 04-27-09 at 07:27 PM
I didn't like it that well. Seemed to be back to the move move, stand there while Julianne does something thing that I really don't like from any dance couple.

Scores: 9~9~8 for a total of 26. (Currently in last place)

"Shawn and Mark"
Posted by vince3 on 04-27-09 at 07:35 PM
Shawn's not understanding when Mark is trying to teach her the feminine parts of the dance...... He called in his mom, Shirley who's a 3-time Latin dance champion.....

Dancing the Samba to Get Down On It


"RE: Shawn and Mark"
Posted by Snidget on 04-27-09 at 07:38 PM
I liked that, even if the judges seem less than thrilled.
It kept me engaged the whole time which a lot of the dances have not tonight.

"RE: Shawn and Mark"
Posted by vince3 on 04-27-09 at 07:40 PM
Scores: 10~8~9 for a total of 27.

Details on Melissa's injury and the effect on the competition next.


"RE: Shawn and Mark"
Posted by mtopaz on 04-28-09 at 11:50 AM
I liked the performance and I like Shawn, but what I think is holding her back in this competition is her youth and her (natural) lack of comfort with putting sexy and sultry into her moves.

Chuck as a secret weapon in the team competition?

"Melissa and Tony"
Posted by vince3 on 04-27-09 at 07:47 PM
Tom reported that Melissa apparently could continue, just not tonight.

We get footage from their training week, which included the actual pain. Apparently she's got a hairline fracture.

She did a rehearsal dance this morning, but then the pain increased as the day went on. Therefore, just like with Steve-O earlier this season, they're gonna score the rehersal dance.....

Dancing the Jive to We Got the Beat


"RE: Melissa and Tony"
Posted by Snidget on 04-27-09 at 07:49 PM
Looks like it would have been pretty good, but it wasn't even a full out rehearsal with a few mistakes.

Although I can't see why her tramp stamp needs to be bedazzled so much, it is a lot less noticeable than what they do to cover it up.


"RE: Melissa and Tony"

Carrie Ann's dancer is back! Chelsie brought in her fellow SYTYCD alum, Dmitry, to help teach him the moves, but Chelsie figured that he was missing something...... Spray-on tan! Yee gads!

So.Much.Orange.

I was pretty much just meh about that. Not bad (and much better than I ever believed he could do based on that first week or two) but still just meh.

Now that was an ending. Hopefully they can get the crowd to shut up soon so they can end the show on time.

Eeek,

The start really got to me. It was OK, seems the judges liked it a lot more than me.

Very nice synchronicity at the end. Ty hung in there with Gilles and Derek.
