Oh, I must disagree. While Kelly certainly improved over the run of the show, she should have been one of the first people booted in season one. John was good from the beginning AND improved.
Please forgive me if this has been discussed previously, as I am drugged from having all four wisdom teeth extracted earlier today and do not have enough focus to work the search feature, but I am so surprised that the judges have never mentioned Mario's hands. He has the worst case of the "I am not really a dancer so this is what I think my hands are supposed to look like" claw that I have ever seen on the show. (Don't get me wrong. He is a great performer, but "the claw" is a pet peeve of mine.)

John O'Hurley danced the same way every time--as if he were auditioning for a constipation commerical. The facial expressions were annoying and his personality was just generally unappealing to me.
I would like this show a lot more if the viewer vote were an anctual score added to the judges' scores so that the top vote getter with the public would get a 10, the next popular a nine, and so on. This would prevent people like Sara Evans and Emmet Smith from moving on when they've given awful dances--Evans in particular should have booted a while ago. She is so wretched that she makes Tony unsexy which I did not think was possible.
I can't stand Mario. He's arrogant and while he's obviously a good dancer, he's a sloppy dancer who masks it with first rate presentation. Jerry Springer is not a great dancer, but his waltz was great because the dance said so much. It showed the power of dance instead of Lopez using the 90 seconds to show how great a dancer he is.
I agree about Mario not being clean. I thought his paso doble was very sloppy.
I just re-watched Monique's waltz; it is one of my favorite dances from any season. It was elegant and emotional and one of the few performances in which music and dance were fully integrated.
I also thought the group paso doble from two episodes ago was very exciting.
Am I the only one who is not a fan of Mario?!? Once again, I was underwhelmed tonight.

Keep your hands off Mario. He's mine! But be nice to him. Tuesday was his birthday.
You can have him Jim ... in the competition and for whatever else!
Mario is perfect.
When is this show on?
I need to see it.
Missing Nip Tuck and this?
Not fair.
I love Mario. I tried voting last night, but only managed to get two calls in.
Joey's arms are very strong and precise when he dances. I want to see what he looks like with hair on his head though.
Glebb, Tuesdays at 8pm. Results show is on Wednesday at 8pm.
Thanks Dottie!
Does that mean Mario will be on T.V. tonight?
Absolutely!!
Mario, Tanny and me.
One happy family!
I am pulling for Emmitt, who has been my favorite since the beginning, and Monique, who gets better and better every week.
Last night's results were just painful to watch. How can anyone not see that the country singer needs to go? She's dancing a "samba" as if she had a hipectomy. There was nothing going on but some clumsy steps and an empty smile. Do that many fans of country music watch the show? It was really uncomfortable to watch the end because EVERYONE knows this season is a complete joke so far. At least Emmitt and Jerry are cute and entertaining. But there is no reason Vivica or Willa should have been voted off the last two weeks.
At this point, it's not unlikely that Jerry could win the whole thing. Apparently, American audiences are not concerned with voting for the best dancers.
I don't know what it is about this show, but I love it. I'm not big on reality (But I do love Project Runway), and this show is awesome. I always look forward to it. The pros are my favorite to watch, because they are so inhumanly talented. So anyway, just spreadin' the Dancing With the Stars appreciation.

I like it, but not this new season. I loved it last year, but this year it is just eh to me. I know this will make many people made, but It is my opinion. There is more just popularity vote than actually skill votes than last season , and I just get bored watching it.
I just read that Sara Evans quit the show.
Hmmmmm.

what a beast. If she knew she was going to go- she should have stated she wanted a previous contestant(like Willa) to come back in her place or something.. now the producers plans for scheduling are probably all messed up.
I am really pulling for Monique- She is damn good. The judges are mega-beasts-they critique the good dancers to death, yet Jerry "Oh you are so fun and entertaining!" B.S!
Monique deserves '10's' I mean what is she going to have to do to get them?
Willa Ford and her partner were on Regis and Kelly this morning. Kelly hinted that someone was leaving Dancing with the Stars, but didn't mention any names. She asked Willa if she would return. Willa more or less said that the American public voted, and that their votes should be honored. In other words, that she wouldn't return to the show. My opinion though is never say never, as this show brings in a lot of ad revenue for ABC, and I don't think they'd want to shorten the season by a week.
who got out this week? I havent been able to watch
Tom DeLay wont have anyone to vote for now:
"Sara Evans has been a strong supporter of the Republican Party and represents good American values in the media. From singing at the 2004 Republican Convention to appearing with candidates in the last several election cycles, we have always been able to count on Sara for her support of the things we all believe in. Let’s show Sara that same support by watching and voting for her each week to help her win this competition. One of her opponents on the show is ultra liberal talk show host Jerry Springer. We need to send a message to Hollywood and the media that smut has no place on television by supporting good people like Sara Evans."

Tom DeLay - that's like the pot calling the kettle black. Hypocritical pig.
I love how she represents such good American values...by getting a divorce.
A-hole!
