"DWTS#8, Finale Results, ECST"

Posted by vince3 on 05-19-09 at 06:41 PM
Time to award the gaudy Disco Ball trophy again......

Also we have a massive list to get through, as well.....

Encore dances for judge scores
Parade of Losers
Lady GaGa will perform
Jeffrey Ross will Roast at least the Finalists
Winner of the Wannabe Pro Competition, who'll join the Pro ranks next season, guaranteed
Red Light Special for 3rd place
Awarding the Disco Ball Trophy.

8:00, according to TV Guide.com, is a repeat of last night's Performance episode, but I think last year they did something besides that, so I'm gonna be here and not in AI.......

I'll be over as soon as AI is over, assuming they can cram all those seconds of singing into the hours of filler before DWTS ends.

I'll be watching, and I'm bracing for another Cheryl win. Gilles is ok, but compared to the women "celebs", he seems to do little more than pose while Cheryl does all the dancing. I have to hand it to her, she is so good that I feel she distracts the judges from his lack of content. Even when they do notice, he still gets overly pimped. I don't get it. *yawn*

David looked kind of annoyed.

Did he let loose with a profanity laden outburst?

No, they danced it to "Baila, Baila". I know because I saw Katee & Joshua dance to it in Season 3 of So You Think You Can Dance. And Katee & Joshua danced the samba better than Chuck did (Julianne's a pro, of course).

I think she really let loose and had some fun with that. Much more than she usually does.

"RE: Shawn and Mark"

She finally came into her own. Shawn was excellent! Her form and her body match - at the end of the season, she out shone Mark. Still don't think she should win,though.

Hey I'm here on the left coast. The actual show doesn't even come on for another hour and 20 minutes...I've been checking in here for more than one season to find out the results. Just wanted to say thanks for the updates! I'm rooting for Gille for first and Shawn for second. Melissa got on my nerves quite some time ago and Ty did not leave soon enough for me! I will say that he was way more entertaining than I thought he would be!

Thanks again and after tonight, I'll "see" y'all next season!

I'm a little surprised at that, but I was pretty sure they weren't winning.

I really was totally prepared to hate her as a contestant on this show and she won me over and I'm glad she made it to the end.

I think Gilles was the better dancer. But I don't mind Shawn. And the Olympic gold medalists continue their streak.

What annoyed me more than anything was Mark winning again. That makes 5 seasons in a row to the Triplets (Mark, Derek & Julianne). I wish they would all take next season off. I am so tired of them winning every season. And Derek rushes out and they hoist Mark in the air. Once again the Star gets ignored while the Triplets celebrate like it is all about them. Since they keep adding new Pros maybe they could omit Julianne, Derek and Mark next season.

Well, that sucks. They've always been wayyyy down on my favorites list. Never even in the top five.

"RE: The Winner of DWTS 8 is....."
Posted by true on 05-20-09 at 07:33 AM
I am shocked. Never underestimate the power of the gold medal. Shawn was cute, and did improve over the last couple episodes, but the best overall? I placed her 3rd.

I really thought Cheryl had it in the bag. The judges pimped Gilles fron day 1, even though, IMO, he didn't do nearly as much dancing as the women stars. He did show great character, but so did Cloris Leachman.

I have a soft spot for Tony, and really wanted him to get the win over Cheryl and Mark. I think he got unfairly criticized by the judges all season. They really seemed to nitpick his routines, and his partner.


"RE: The Winner of DWTS 8 is....."
Posted by Brownroach on 05-20-09 at 09:12 AM
Gilles and Cheryl wuz robbed.

I can't believe Shawn won. She was merely o.k. in any of the dances I saw, imo.

Someone should have told Mark to remove his hands from over his mouth after they won. He looked almost horrified, like he knew it was really the wrong choice. And he wasn't even standing near Shawn.

are you frakkin kidding me? Bleh.

Glad I didn't watch now.

don't get me wrong, Shawn did a very nice job all season long, but I agreed with Carrie Ann that her age held her back just a bit.

Oh well, it's not like it matters or anything. All the stars get terrific exposure just by being on the show.

But I feel either Melissa or Gilles really deserved the win more.

Totally agree. Gilles should have won by a mile. Damn gymnast voters!!

I am sad for Gilles...but he is a man of great character and I am sure he can see this for what it really is...a popularity contest that can be easily rigged by certain sectors! BAH!

And yes, I did see how Mark got lifted RIGHT AWAY and it was another minute or two before anyone thought to do that for Shawn. She did work hard..so I am happy for her...but yes, some of the pros do think it is all about them! YIKES!
