LAST EDITED ON 03-24-14 AT 09:03 PM (EST)

Hype: A shocking change surprises everyone. Or something.

Intro dance is annoying. Watched half, then FF.


Thanks to tribephyl for the sigpic!

"Surprise!"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 08:50 PM
Tonight will be a DOUBLE elim! Based on last week's scores, so elim could take place at any time during the show.

First couple safe: Drew & Cheryl.

You are safe, but will be dancing RIGHT NOW.

"Drew & Cheryl - Jive"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 08:54 PM
No idea on the song.

Fun. Nothing special, but good for Drew's character. Decent dance for ep 2 w/ no previous dance experience.

7+7+7=21

He did pretty well, but Cheryl's right in that he wasn't ready to do a jive. I'm amazed he had the energy to do the dance, and then dash up the stairs, and not be gasping for breath.
"Safe..."
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 08:56 PM
Billy D & Emma.

Meryl & Maks.

Danica & Val.

Danica & Val are up next.

"RE: Safe..."
Posted by Sagebrush Dan on 03-24-14 at 11:24 PM
Billy Dee safe? That sucks.
"Danica & Val - Samba"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:02 PM
All Nite (Don't Stop)

I thought she did reasonably well.

Also, Val shares a birthday with my son!

8+8+8=24

"RE: Danica & Val - Samba"
Posted by Sagebrush Dan on 03-24-14 at 11:24 PM
I like her, and I hope she does well.

And, happy birthday to your son.

"Billy Dee Williams & Emma - Tango"

Peter Gunn theme

That was a little smooth.

5+5+5=15

I was surprised that he was angry with the judges last week. I thought they overscored him last week.
"Meryl & Maks - Swing"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:11 PM
Maks says he's too old for all the lifts.

Song: Big & Bad

Starts in the balcony. Lots and lots of lifts. And there's that famous camera work.

8+9+8=25

"The important one gave us a 9." Bwahah! He thinks Bruno is full of sh*t.

"Who else is safe?"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:19 PM
Amy & Derek - Safe.

Candice & Mark - Safe.

Diana & Henry - Lowest total & going home right now.

That's disappointing. I thought she had room to improve.

She does get to dance her last dance, at least. (And this format is obnoxiously awkward.)

Song: Move Your Feet

Not bad considering the circumstances.

"Candice & Mark - Rumba"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:24 PM
She makes him leave his shirt on. ROFL Also, I'm over the Danica/Candice rivalry.

Song: Say Something

I hated that choreography. I can't even judge the dancing because the choreo was so off putting.

7+7+7=21

"Amy & Derek - Swing"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:30 PM
Confessional: Her "legs could fly off" while she's dancing.

I'm a horrible person. Insert "Fixodent & forget it" joke here. A horrible, horrible person.

Song: Swing Set

Great choreography. Putting them after Mark & C just emphasized that.

Obvious mistake toward the end. Oh, well. I thought she did great.

Derek blames her missed "arm pass" on his jacket (i.e., not HER fault).

8+8+8=24

A little underscored, maybe.

"More results..."
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:31 PM
Charlie & Charna
James & Peeta

Both safe!

J&P dancing next.

"James & Peeta - Salsa"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:38 PM
Song: Follow the Leader

Seemed pretty sloppy to me.

9+8+8=25

Way overscored.

"Charlie & Charna - Tango"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:45 PM
Charlie's too nice. Maks has to teach him to be an arrogant bad boy.

Song: Addicted to You

Starts on a throne. God, that man knows how to partner. It's not fair, but I love to watch!

Len says he broke the rules by breaking hold.

9+7+9=25

"Still more results"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:46 PM
Cody & Whitney
Sean & Karina
Nene & Tony

Haha, just kidding. No results now. You have to wait until all of you ave danced. Nene & Tony are up next.

(This format is total f*cked up!)

"Nene & Tony - Jive"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:49 PM
Song: Do My Thing

Awkward. I wonder how much she actually rehearsed this week. Just sayin'.

Didn't listen to the judges comments, but apparently Tony thought they were smokin' something with their critique & Jive Arms.

7+7+7=21

"Sean & Karina - Salsa"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 09:54 PM
No idea on the song. Shazam can't help.

Not bad for a hockey guy. I liked it.

7+7+7=21

New female-host is officially NOT good at this. (I'll remember her name eventually.)

"Cody & Whitney - Tango"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 10:01 PM
Glowy start.

Song: Yeah x3

Hot mess. ROFL I think he was leading wrong. She kinda stumbled.

Judges said the problem was the height difference. I call BS.

7+7+8=22

Overscored.

"2nd Elimination"
Posted by udg on 03-24-14 at 10:08 PM
Nene & Tony - Safe

Cody & Whitney
or
Sean & Karina

Couple going home is...

Sean & Karina

They were the best of those 3. Bad call.

This whole episode was a giant suck-fest. The format was cruel & unusual. And the wrong couples were sent home.

Sean bought the farm because he has little fan base due to being a relatively little known hockey goon, with most of those who do know him hating his guts due to years of obnoxious behavior on the ice. When BD survived, it didn't take a lot of imagination to eventually figure out that Sean had to be the other one to go.
