Dancing With the Stars 2009 Blog Talk


Yes, it's a new season of Dancing With the Stars! This is YOUR place for discussion about the show with friends. Grab your comfy chair, bring snacks and beverages ... and, most of all ... have a good time. Oh -- there is a dance floor over there if you want to practice your moves, too.

The show's official website is here, but the real action is right here in comments!

  1. Hey, am I first? WOW! What is with Dereks shaggy dog hair?

    ReplyDelete
  2. You are first!

    well, I was sorry to see Belinda look as stiff as she was.

    I always think Edyta looks like giselle Bunchen

    ReplyDelete
  3. Boy, the stylists made Lil Kim look softer and prettier than I've ever seen her. And she seemed so cute and friendly... no sign of the hard a$$ chick we used to know. Maybe she's grown, or maybe this is an effort to rehab her image. So far, A+ on that.

    Looks like they gave Karina (sp?) a guy who will be out early. Last few shows she was visibly pissy when eliminated... maybe they are teaching her a lesson?

  4. Sydney said... I always think Edyta looks like giselle Bunchen

    I always think of her as Her Royal Nakedness.

    ReplyDelete
  5. I admit, I'd be naked as much as possible if I had her bod. Beautiousness.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Does anyone want to participate in a DWTS pool? No one goes home til next week and the picks are random so tonight dance won't affect to pool results. Any takers? I'll set it up.

    Margo

  7. Hey all, I'm late to the party but I've been watching/fast-forwarding between dancers and I've caught up, lol.

    I actually liked Steve-O and Laci

    ReplyDelete
  8. Hey Becky, I thought it was just us chickens and now here's MARGO! Yay!

    Hi Margo.

    Anyone else out there lurking?

    ReplyDelete
  9. Sure, Margo. Count me in!

    ReplyDelete
  10. I liked them too Margo. I thought he did a really good job considering how he started out. Judges didn't thought. Thought Lacie's dark teal dress with peacock feathers looked incredible. I see they have gotten hold of her in Hollywood and gotten her to slim down. I think there is more to it all than diet and exercise. I know there are many actors on human growth hormone and are taking various diet pills, metabloism boosters, etc... not to mention lyposuction etc.

    And we try to look like them through the normal means and wonder why...

    I think Edyta is born that way thought. The Go Go has a normal body though.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Looks like Monty is here. I would love to be in a pool. Just please, please, please, please don't give me Edyta or the other naked lady... the pissy one. I can't stand those two and would hate to vote against myself.

    Sydney, I thought we were the only ones too.

    Giles and Cheryl sizzle. She looks great!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Hi Monty!

    Count me in too Margo! Great idea!

    my wv is overbarf, lol

    I guess it's reminding me that people can purge too, lol

    woo, the Sex n The City guy can dance!

    ReplyDelete
  13. I love julianne -- I am worried about their relationship making it. Taaching your partner something is NOT exactly a recipe for harmony!

    :-)

    ReplyDelete
  14. Julianne and Chuck were great. She is so beautiful and graceful. Julianne could make Wayne Newton look good!

    I hope they get good marks.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Holly is a doll. She actually did really well with only a weeks preparation. Good job!

    ReplyDelete
  16. no fair -- the others have been training for 6 weeks or so and HOlly got a few days... and they said the judges don't take that into consideration?

    ReplyDelete
  17. I agree Monty. She did really well considering. And Carrie is spot on that she looked like a fawn who hadn't gotten her legs yet. good for her.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Aw, Melissa looks adorable as well. I can't wait to see her perform on the season. I'm sure tonight will be rough, but she'll handle it.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Yikes, I forgot DWTS was on...or I forgot it was evening. Where did that hour go? I can't watch and type so will check in later with a comment. Did I already miss Melissa?

    ReplyDelete
  20. The new girl Chelsie is good! Ty is cute, isn't he. Not a lot of rythmn, but cute personality.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Another adorable dance. Shawn was awesome... Can you imagine dancing with Mark at 17? I'd totally fall in love.

    This is going to be a great season.

    ReplyDelete
  22. No, Sizzie. Melissa is coming up later. They just introduced her and showed her in her dress/costume.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I know Siz, I still am not used to the hour difference in time.

    Shawn was good and TY WAS cute too. I hope he isn't the first to go.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Melissa looked great in the previews. I HOPE HOPE HOPE she gets a few weeks.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Shaun and Mark did a great job.

    Oh, I don't think Karina will be there long. Steve is not the best dancer of the season.

    It will be interesting to see if ABC told the judges to give Melissa good marks.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Apparently this is on the same network as the Bachelor? Yes, I think yes.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Did anyone else catch Mel's little tatoo patch on her back? LOL Great little trick.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Just jumped in to say "HI".
    I won't be seeing the show for another hour but thought I'd check out the snacks you all have.....oh yeah, and the comments. LOL

    Sounds like everyone has done well. Have you seen Denise and Maks yet?

    Margo put me in your pool--I promise not to pee!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Be still my beating heart. Maks is so, so, so... well, you know! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Denis did not make much of that fringe shake...

    ReplyDelete
  31. Carrie's wearing something interesting.

    Notice how hard they were on the computer guy and how encouraging they were to Ty and Denise, becuase they want to keep them in this week.

    ReplyDelete
  32. MOG she's great!

    She's a dancer for sports so I guess she caught on fast. but I never guessed that I"M IMPRESSED!

    And class -- Nancy O dell Gave her a standing O, and Jeewel looked snarky when her replacement danced

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hi all,
    Doing ok after surgery, but I fell again on that arm! Will find out thursday if I did more damage. Please pray I didn't.

    where can I get some lol

    ReplyDelete
  34. Eat your heart out Molly! You will never look that good! Melissa, that was a job well done.

    Loved Lin's Burno's comments about Jerkason.

    Great scores. And she earned them. As I said, eat your heart out Molly! Melissa's spotlight time will far outshine yours!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Hi RJM -- SO good to hear from you. We were wondering how things were -- unless I missed you reporting on a show like Lost or one I don't watch. I'm so sorry you fell!!! Wha hoppend?

    ReplyDelete
  36. I could replay and rewatch Bruno's comments a million times. Melissa was stunning and with only two days practice. I knew she would pull it off. I can't wait to watch next week. The Bachelor's loss definitely DWTS gain!

    ReplyDelete
  37. sorry about all the misspells as I try to write fast and watch the dance... the only ones I intended to misspell was wha hoppend to RJM, lol

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hi. I don't watch this show, I just wanted to say Hey to my pals!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Count me in on the pool!

    Gilles was too hot to watch!

    SteveO surprised me considering my kids always watched JA he always seemed like a clown.

    Our girl, Melissa, did us proud. Glad J pulled a "Mesnick"

    Sydney right on about costumes. 2 were horrible, Denise's was ugly!
    Lacey's was elegant.

    Darm RJM, stop hurting yourself. I too hope no more damage! Take care!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Thanks for asking Sydney. This is the first time I have attempted to type. all one handed and I am not very good at it. Hope to get a smaller, lighter cast Thursday. I guess I am getting old is all I know! Hate to see how I will be when I get older!!

    I wouldn't mind seeing Denise Richards leave first and Melissa winning it.

    ReplyDelete
  41. oh shoot Monty, what was his comment? I missed it.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I thought Melissa looked beautiful, great costume and impressive dancing. I watched the series about Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders (it was on CMT or similar channel). Does anyone know if Melissa was on that show? The kick line sure would have helped her be ready to dance tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Holly and Denise were about on the same level.

    but I think the computer guy will leave first.

    Ty the cowboy wil hopefully improve and stay awhile. I'd like him to get over his initial butch-ness (lol)... His masculinity seems to be a bigger obstacle than learning the steps. If he can reframe it as a gentlemanly thing to do, and a competition like his sport is, it will really help him.

    I am glad the Olympian was good enough to be in the middle, but didn't blow us away as the sure winner from the get go like the ice skater and speed skater did in the past (Anton? Ono? I can't remember names for nothin!)

    I was surprised that Belinda Carlysle wasn't better. So we shall see. I am not looking at the scores but just my feeling about them

    ReplyDelete
  44. Yes, Melissa will charm everyone. When she smiled and was all bubbly there I saw a touch of Marie Osmond (20 years ago) in her...

    ReplyDelete
  45. Sydney said...
    oh shoot Monty, what was his comment? I missed it.
    -------------------

    LOL, he said "I don't know that Bachelor, but he a LOSER (with the finger L).... ha

    PRICELESS!!!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Oh yes, I DID see that. Thanks for the reminder Monty!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I just saw a clip on Access Hollywood with Nancy O'Dell. They were talking about Melissa and said she was on Dallas Cheerleaders in 2006 and was one of the featured contestants. They also said That Len was one of the judges for that show! Which means he has already watched Melissa perform and was familiar with her skills(not to mention looks and body). Glad to hear she did well.

    ReplyDelete
  48. thought Melissa looked beautiful, great costume and impressive dancing. I watched the series about Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders (it was on CMT or similar channel). Does anyone know if Melissa was on that show? The kick line sure would have helped her be ready to dance tonight.

    I watched the cheerleaders show too. I really think she was on it as she looked familiar to me as soon as I saw her on Bachelor. She is such a cutie.
    BTW I would be hhappy to be in your pool if you haave room..

    Bet

    ReplyDelete
  49. Well I'm off to take the trash out and then read Jackie's TAR and COld Case articles.

    Sydney, I saw the Marie Osmond connection as well. I think she will totally charm us this season. Overall, I think the women did the far better job tonight (with the exception of Gilles). I wanted to smoke a cigarette after he and Cheryl danced. Yikes!

    See you all later this week on Survivor.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I, too watched on CMT the Dallas Cheerleader reality show. My daughter says she was on it. She was also on the squad for the 2007 and 2008 seasons, I saw her pic from my snooping.

    ReplyDelete
  51. hi all, it's been quite a while since i've been around and i don't think ever for DWTS. i don't yet have a favorite, but enjoyed quite a few of the dancers. i was thrilled to see how charming and graceful melissa was.

    i didn't think the apple guy did all that bad but my goodness, what the heck was sourpuss (karena) wearing? thank goodness the seam didn't move or we would have been introduced to her you know what. i wouldn't mind seeing her go, i don't care for her.

    anyway, i'd love to be in the pool, margo, if you are still putting it together. thanks

    ReplyDelete
  52. I like Gilles & Cheryl best followed by shaun & Mark, Melissa & Tony. The computer guy or Steve-O can go as far as I'm concerned. I think Kym is confused by her partner.
    Katrina & computer guy need to go first cause she has a wedding to plan.
    I really like Maks - but I really-really don't like Denise
    Richards. Oh yea I thought Lil Kim was good also.
    I'll work on a pool. We need 13 peeps and I've got
    Margo
    Monty924
    Sydney
    Becky (no Edyta or Katrina?)
    Nana in NW
    Delee

    RMJ, sizzie or Bet - wanna play?

    Margo

    ReplyDelete
  53. oops

    Lucy Grace wants to play. Got it.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Welcome back Lucy Grace! You picked a good show to give a try to....

    ReplyDelete
  55. put me in Marge but I may not get to corrspond much this time.
    Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  56. i meant margo--thanks Delee for the thoughts

    ReplyDelete
  57. Hurray for a new season.

    Most impressed with:
    Lil' Kim & Derek
    Melissa & Tony
    Cheryl & Gilles

    Ready for them to go:
    Karina & Steve
    Belinda & Jonathon (even though I love him)
    Maks & Denise

    I love Holly Madison and was pleased with her peformance. She was better than a whole handful of them with only a week's practice. I have high hopes for her.

    As always I love Julianne and she looked so lovely and graceful. Regardless of performances, I hope this is a good relationship experience for her & Chuck.

    And I'm so thrilled that Chelsie is on the show. I loved her on SYTYCD and she has so much personality. I'm sure with a little work she'll get Ty to loosen up.

    From what we saw last night, I think there's a lot of potential for this season. Very exciting.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Being from Iowa, of course, I want Shawn to go far, though I wonder if she may not be like Misty MT last season and have too much strength. What an awsome, grounded young lady, still even went to public school. So many this year seemed apologetic or like they did not want to be there at all. If Belinda gets dizzy on spins, why did she sign up for the show? LT--take him or leave him. At least Steve W. was having fun. I hope the fix is not in for Melissa to win since the network must have gotten such a backlash from the Bachelor debacle.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Hey Margo - Put me in the pool too. Did anyone else watch Castle? It was on immediately following DWTS. I enjoyed it and will watch it again.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Well I have to say I loved the show! I have loved it since the first season, and it just gets better.
    Has anyone here heard the Ballas/Hough band? they are very good..Derek and Mark make a great musical group.
    I thought Melissa did herself so proud with her 48 hours of practice, and her outfit and hair were great...
    I,too, thought Belinda would be more graceful, she looked terrfied and a very stiff.
    there are some real contenders here!

    ReplyDelete
  61. I would like to be in the pool as well...

    ReplyDelete
  62. RMJ, sizzie or Bet - wanna play?

    Yes, if you have room I would love to...thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Off topic Survivor news from Reality TV World:

    Jenna Morasca (Survivor Amazon winner) has joined TNA Wrestling and will make her debut in the square-circle during TNA: iMPACT's March 12 broadcast on Spike TV.

    Todd Herzog (Survivor China) is dating Tocantin's Spencer Duhm. They met a month before the current season began. Todd thinks Tyson has a great sense of humor (?) and he dislikes Coach because Coach said before this season began that Todd and Parvati were two of Survivor's weakest players. He really wants Coach to lose. I think most of us do.

    Also Jeff Probst helped a camerawoman who suffered two seizures as he was answering questions at a media event. He caught her her and lowered her as she fell. She came to, then had a second one. He stayed with her until medical personnel arrived. Jeff Probst is a good guy.

    Just thought I'd pass it along.

    ReplyDelete
  64. OK I have for the DWTS pool

  65. Margo, sorry it took me so long..I just checked in. Yes, if you have room, I would like in the pool.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I would like to join the pool, too, if I may. Now that I have finally figured out the posting thing and have my name showing, etc...LOL I have been reading for years, only recently started replying. Thanks!

    Oh, and I haven't watched last night's show yet - but was thrilled this morning to learn Melissa is on it!

    Sheri

    ReplyDelete
  67. Please add me to the Pool Margo. I responded on the TAR post you left.

    Now I know why Melissa always looked so familiar to me. I too watched that Dalls cheerleader show. She did a great job last night. I think Holly did pretty well for the little time she had to practice and having no dance experience at all. I think Karina and Steve will be the first one's out, but that's okay, she still gets to take home the best prize on the show imo, Maks!

    ReplyDelete
  68. Well Sheri, I'm glad you have been posting and are jumping in the pool, the waters fine!

    Hi to Caroline!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Hey Kids,

    I am happy Karina will not be on long this season. I cannot stand her. I cannot believe she and Maxsim are engaged.

    I thought Maxsim was "outdancing" with Denise, similar to what Laci did with one of her dances with Lance last season.

    Loved Steve-O and Laci, they made me laugh. Cheryl and the Nakid man OHH MY... (fanning self)

    Melissa did great for dancing since Saturday, I think she'll go a long way.

    Next week's voted out will be the rodeo guy (that was painful to watch) or Steve from Apple

    ReplyDelete
  70. welcome lucygrace to the DWTS comment site...

    Margo, I'd like to be in the pool as well... guess you've started doubling up, but I don't mind sharing someone.

    Karina, as usual, seems to be getting on a lot of nerves, and it's only the first night. We've got her pegged.

    See you next week on this site.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I am curious as to why so many people dislike Karina. Other than some of the facial expressions she's been caught with (many of which I think were due to nervousness about being eliminated), what are the other reasons she is so disliked? I personally like her and think she can outdance any of the other female pros. She and Maks make a smoking hot couple - though he really should be with me, LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  72. *******DWTS POOL MATCH-UPS*******

    Here goes - I was gonna give everyone 2 couples but we can just jump ship when our team goes home. I think I'm probably going first.

    Gilles Marini & Cheryl- becky & Sydney
    Shawn Johnson & Mark- Delee & Bet
    Melissa Rycroft & Tony - Monty924
    Lil’Kim & Derek - Susan in FL
    Chuck Wicks & Julianne - gaylos
    David Alan Grier & Kym - Lucy Grace
    Holly Madison & Dmitry - Meb
    Denise Richards & Maks - RJM
    Belinda Carlisle & Jonathan - RBennie
    Steve-O & Lacey - sizzie
    Lawrence Taylor & Edyta - Nana in NW
    Ty Murray & Chelsie - CountryGirlSheri
    Steve Wozniak & Karina - Margo

    ReplyDelete
  73. Oh yay. Lil Kim and Derek Hough. Derek is the incumbent pro champion, so maybe I'll have Hough luck and he'll get a second win.
    my WV is SIndiana

    ReplyDelete
  74. Thanks for doing this Margo. I'm not exactly thrilled with my couple (Belinda & Jonathan), I think she'll be out early on, but like you said, once she's gone I can jump ship to someone else.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Thanks Margo! My TAR and Survivor teams are out, so.... I am looking forward to seeing my team compete next.

    My wv is herawed (her awed? yes her is about some things)

    ReplyDelete
  76. Well, at least Karina has one fan RBennie... LOL... sorry... I think most of it is her attitude. In the early shows, she really acted like the show and the fans owed her something... just the way she came off. She's calmed down a little but you know how that goes... it's tough to get back into someone's good graces. I'll try to be more aware of how she's acting NOW. Promise.

    ReplyDelete
  77. thanks margo for adding me to the pool. i look forward with conversing with you all on monday nights. i don't always make it for survivor or the amazing race.

    so, if anyone is still posting to this thread, how does the pool work? will you continue with this thread, or each monday, a new one?

    i know david allen grier is a comic, but did anyone find him funny in his meeting with kym?

    also, anyone thinking bruno is going just a little too far with some of his comments?

    also, one other observation. looking at belinda carlise, don't you think she is what priscilla presley is supposed to look like sans botched botox?

    ReplyDelete
  78. Margo, thank you for doing the pool.

    Sydney, it will be fun having Gilles & Cheryl. We can drool all we want.

    BTW the funniest post last night was when a poster said that after Giles and Cheryl danced she needed a cigarette.

    RJM, hope you are feeling much better soon.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Thanks Margo... and I love my pool pick!!! :) Just hope that doesn't jinx Mel and Tony. My picks usually fizzle out early (but hey, I had GC on Survivor so go figure, lol). RBennie or others out early are welcome to join me... that is if Mel and Tony move on? I think they will!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Lucy Grace-
    We continue posting here until we beg Jackie for a new one cause this one is so long. It will move over to the discussion posts over on the side - but it will be the same thread.
    I went home yesterday and asked Mom guess who we got in the pool. She says Woz. I said yes and she said I could have changed it. I told her that wasn't fair - it is totally random. I put the names in a bowl and pick them out one at a time as I go down the list of contestants. Once all contestants have a pool partner then I start over at the top until I run out of names. I think we might move to the Gilles Cheryl camp when Woz goes home - cause they are sizzling!
    Til Monday -
    Margo

    ReplyDelete
  81. MArgo, feel free to join Becky and I should that happen. There's enough Gilles to share ;-P

    ReplyDelete
  82. Thank you Margo... Go JuliChuck! Or maybe Go ChuJu (chew-jew!!)

    ReplyDelete
  83. I watched some of The View today and Sherry did a fun video of herself and the DWTS people. It isn't on youtube yet, but it should be some time. It is worth seeing.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Anyone here this evening?

    ReplyDelete
  85. RBennie, I am going to try and not let Karina's behavior bother me this season (it will be very, very hard).

    LucyGrace, you asked what you had to do regarding the pool. You have to come to each of our houses and clean them.

    (Let's see if she buys it.)

    I pretty much agreed with the judges on Holly. He looked like he was dragging her across the floor.

    Kym's partner is funny!

    ReplyDelete
  86. Monty, I'm here. Wanna taco?

    Denise was wonderful. I think she deserved an 8.

    ReplyDelete
  87. hi everyone. took me awhile to get here, but better late than never. i also missed the first half hour of the show, so i'll have to pick it up tomorrow at the recap.

    and becky, i have a tough enough time cleaning my own house....LOL

    hope everyone is having a great monday.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Hey Becky,

    thanks for the taco. Yummy! I thought Holly and Denise were both much better. I've read a few whiney comments that Maks has made in some interviews. Something about his personality irks me, but I still love to watch him dance.

    ReplyDelete
  89. 6-6-6
    the devil.....

    she has no beat
    she has no beat
    yeah
    she has no beat

    p.s. my verify word is PARTI!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  90. Belinda DOES look like Priscilla Presley without botox. She was better this week, but still looks uncomfortable.

    Am I talking to myself here?

    ReplyDelete
  91. LOL, Becky. I've got that Go-Go's song in my head now. Thanks, lol

    ReplyDelete
  92. TY can't dance worth a hoot, but he tickles me.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Well, he did do better with the quick step. Impressed.

    ReplyDelete
  94. i thought he did pretty good. i don't know why they pick on him so bad.

    i love his partner's dress.

    ReplyDelete
  95. Ty was so much better this week. Am I the only one who thinks Bruno is a wee bit over the top?

    I had to laugh at Ty at rehearsal. He is one funny guy. Hi, Folks, this is my riding the bull face!

    ReplyDelete
  96. beck, right...belinda looks like what priscella did.

    ReplyDelete
  97. i meant becky, not beck. sorry

    my word is WHAGNAG!!!!!
    i'm going to have to try to find a way to use that from now on.

    ReplyDelete
  98. i agree, bruno is way over the top. i used to find him funny, now i just think he's a tad annoying and trying to outdo himself.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Bruno is way over the top. Len always gives the bummer score though it seems. It will be interesting to see how the Woz does tonight. Shaun up next and I can't wait. She's one of my favorites along with Melissa.

    ReplyDelete
  100. she is too adorable.

    ReplyDelete
  101. she's only 17, no real "life" experiences. not sure what they expect from her.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Now I agreed with Brunno that time. Shawn is cuter than a bugs ear. Another one that puts a smile on my face.

    ReplyDelete
  103. I hated to hear that about Steve's foot. I don't think he be around long enough to do major damage, but I still hated to see it.

    ReplyDelete
  104. Shawn was impressive, Steve was funny. I think Julieanne has her work cut out for her this year.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Thats the most fabric I've ever seen on Edyta.

    ReplyDelete
  106. I love Julianne, but I agree with the judges. She did all the work.

    ReplyDelete
  107. I couldn't agree more with the criticism there. Its no different than what the accused Lacey of last year.

    ReplyDelete
  108. i was wondering what that dance was supposed to be, i'm glad carrie ann clarified it as a salsa.

    i tought it was terrible. especially for julie ann

    ReplyDelete
  109. I thought Julianne's boyfirend did just fine. It's those fringe pants that make it look like she did all the dancing.

    And I was so pleased TY did well in the eyes of the judges.

    I want to get on the phone and vote for Belinda tonight, just because she represents those of us with real bodies!

  110. Is this show not on two nights a week anymore?

    ReplyDelete
  111. So I haven't missed Melissa? She's my fav after the bachelor. I missed to first 45 minutes.

    ReplyDelete
  112. is it me, or do all the women have more clothes on this season (so far) than any other season?

    ReplyDelete
  113. That's the most clothes I've ever seen Edyta wear.

    ReplyDelete
  114. Hey, Edyta is dressed! She really has a beautiful figure, but the nakedness turns me off.

    ReplyDelete
  115. Oh goodness, I just got on and started typing. Now in the commercial I got to check on the other comments. Nomad, I think we must be twins... RBennie too because the same things happen between she and I. Triplets, separated at birth!

    and OK, Julianne's dance was not the salsa.

    Darn, I missed Lil Kim, Denise and Holly! We forgot what TV was on tonight and spent an extra half hour enjoying the nice spring weather at the park next door!

    Agree Belinda looks like Pricilla too

    ReplyDelete
  116. I love Edyta's dress tonight and yes more than we are used to. :)

    ReplyDelete
  117. You can say ASS on TV now>? Jackass is still ASS, lol

    ReplyDelete
  118. looked like steve-o had a thong

    ReplyDelete
  119. You haven't missed Lil Kim yet, Sydney.

    ReplyDelete
  120. LG-- I thought that too this season.

    And what did Lacie do to get that thin? She was not last season or the other show she was on before this.. was it SO You Think You Can Dance...

    So Denise apparently was really good according to you all. Sorry I missed it!

    ReplyDelete
  121. Hey, Sydney, I wondered where you were tonight.

    I will probably get clobbered, by Lacey just does not do anything for me. I think she is too athletic for me.

    And yes, I think most of the stars are wearing more clothes this year.

    ReplyDelete
  122. lil's very light on her feet.

    Her face is so plastic looking though, and the blue contacts... takes a little getting used to. She sure has the acting part down in her expressions though. Good job

    ReplyDelete
  123. OK, when she's waiting for the judges to tell their comments she looks much better, so I retract my face comment! I stand corrected! (by my own self, lol)!

    ReplyDelete
  124. Ty's mother sitting next to Jewel sure looks like Ellen Degeneres's mom doesn't she?

    ReplyDelete
  125. I thought Lil Kim was good. Len needs a laxative. He is such a sour puss.

    The more flamboyant Bruno gets, the more dour Len becomes. Wish they could meet on a common ground.

    ReplyDelete
  126. Well, they won't let Mel and Tony go last again so they should be up next. I'm looking forward to Cheryl and Gilles Quick-step.

    ReplyDelete
  127. she's another adorable one. i'd like to see melissa and tony go far. tony is such a class act and has such a way about him when he's teaching.

    ReplyDelete
  128. Brav o.... and was that her parents in the crowd? Great job Mel and tony.

    ReplyDelete
  129. woah. I bet Jason and Molly are loving sitting on the couch watching TV on Monday nights

    ReplyDelete
  130. OK, I Agree with y'all now. Julianne, my little pet, did NOT do a Salsa with her man. THAT was a salsa!

    ReplyDelete
  131. WOW Melissa got a 26. Go Girl!!!

    ReplyDelete
  132. hey, ya all want to guess who will get the first 10 this season? if you are right, becky will come and clean your house LOL

    ReplyDelete
  133. sydney, i was wondering if jason and molly are watching. or if jason is "busy with ty" on monday nights and can't spend time with molly and sits and watches by himself.

    ReplyDelete
  134. WTG Melissa! I bet Jason is sick that he let this one get away. I am so glad she is on this show. She is good!

    Sydney, our guy is on next. Are you ready?

    Unless Giles messes up, I think the bottom two will be Jackass (??) and computer guy.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Becky said: The more flamboyant Bruno gets, the more dour Len becomes.

    Yes!

    ReplyDelete
  136. LOL, LG. I would settle for someone doing my laundry... :)

    ReplyDelete
  137. My guess would be Melissa or Gilles.

    Hi all...I was curled up in bed with Starry and watching the show.

    ReplyDelete
  138. Passing out the smelling salts to all here!

    ReplyDelete
  139. LucyGrace said... hey, ya all want to guess who will get the first 10 this season? if you are right, becky will come and clean your house LOL

    Yeah, so vote for computer guy!

    I loved the comment about Jason being busy with Ty on Mondays so he can watch Melissa.

    ReplyDelete
  140. LOL LG-- Well, my husband just told me he read in US magazine that Molly will be moving in with Jason and his brother and his girlfriend, who he lives with... (DH said -- Guess REALITY will really set in, lol). And it says no one is really sure what Jason does for work, or that he doesn't do what he said he did.

    After I got past that good gossip, I laughed that my husband had actually read the article...

    ReplyDelete
  141. Pass those smelling salts. Gilles is smokin.

    ReplyDelete
  142. oh, it is not a shouldr problem from where I'm sitting,
    *giggle*

    Do you think they just had him do that so we could see him with his shirt off?

    ReplyDelete
  143. I do not like this music for a quick-step. Get rid of the glasses...ugh!!! WHat a finish!

    ReplyDelete
  144. wow -- THE ARIEL CAMERA! That's a first.

    ( I think I channeled BRuno there for a minute).

    ReplyDelete
  145. Great dance and cute ending. I think he was better last week though. Smiling sheepishly!

    ReplyDelete
  146. Are the horn rim glasses supposed to make Giles less sexy? Doensn't work! ROFLMAO Now I see why he did.

    Whew!! My clue word is hoves.... yeah Giles gives me the hoves!

    ReplyDelete
  147. W
    ell, the song was about superman and kryptonite, so he wore glasses to look like Clark Kent and she wore a kryptonite green dress?

    ReplyDelete
  148. oh man, this guy is a little tasty, wouldn't you say?

    as for jason, he's an insurance salesman that makes $60,000 a year. it was on inside edition or entertainment tonight or one of them.

    molly, when they were on ellen, said she would eventually relocate, but it wasn't going to be that quick. i think the show ended in january, so two months isn't so quick!

    cheryl's hair looks like crap. i don't care for cheryl, don't want to see her win, but i admit, she is an excellent dancer. ever see her on the entertainment shows when she's out partying? what a load she is.

    becky, that's too funny...vote for the computer guy!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  149. he was better last week Monty. I am shocked they gave him that great a score! And he's mine in the pool. Mine and Becky's I mean, lol

    ReplyDelete
  150. update on steve-o's condition....

    he's still a jackass!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  151. Next time we need to remember to ask if Jackie might turn off the WV because I miss so much typing it in while they are dancing. Can we all try to remember to ask?

    ReplyDelete
  152. Thanks for the gossip, Sydney and Lucy G. Just for fun, how long do you give Jason and Molly? Any guesses?

    ReplyDelete
  153. my guess for jason and molly, more than 3 months, less than 6.

    goodnight everyone, it was a pleasure. and i have to agree. although i had some pretty neat words tonight, so much easier to just type away.

    i'm going to try to pop in for survivor.

    have a nice week.

    ReplyDelete
  154. I just re-watched it and that was Melissa's parents and her bew beau Ty in the audience. teeheehee... Jason didn't even get to meet them on the Bach and here they are in LA watching her now. I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  155. Nite LucyGrace. It was fun reading all the comments tonight. I'm off to wheel the garbage to the curb and finish my laundry.

    Becky, I'll let you off the hook and vote for Woz on the first 10. :)

    See you all later.

    ReplyDelete
  156. Hey, Delee..I think our girl did great tonight. I really like her but I really like Melissa too. Have a great night everyone....

    ReplyDelete
  157. Shawn did ok, just saw the pool, after you mentioned it Bet. Must have been away when it was posted.

    Cheryl looks like she has put on a lot of weight to me. I also agree her hair was a mess last night.

    Happy St Patrick's Day

    ReplyDelete
  158. Great show last night. I know I'm supposed to be rooting for Belinda, but she kinda sucks! LOL I'm so glad that Melissa is doing so well. I liked Gilles and Cheryl's performance, but don't think it rated 9s. Shawn is a little powerhouse and cute as a button. Denise did much better than last week, but I'm still not too impressed yet. Too bad about Steve-O, I hope he will be able to continue. I thought Lil Kim did a really good job. She is actually much less plastic looking than she has been in the past. I don't know if its the makeup or what, but she's looking much softer and better to me. I'm still rooting for Holly. I hope she will be able to continue on and show some real improvement. I don't think you guys will have to suffer watching Karina any longer, cuz I think they are out tonight. That is probably a good thing for Steve with that foot.

    ReplyDelete
  159. I just like the pure joy of Steve Wozniak. Reminds me of another Steve--that being Gutenberg. I'd rather he stay in.

    ReplyDelete
  160. I think Woz should stay and Steve-O should go since he has a back injury. You shouldn't mess with a back injury - give it time to heal man. Is a shiny ball trophy worth pain for the rest of you life? I think not. Also with Woz foot injury he will be gone next week anyhoo.
    I really liked Tony & Melissa's dance. I thought Cheryl and Gilles were scored to high. It took me through about half there song to figure out the Superman/kryptonite connection to their wardrobe.
    I will be posting in the morning - since I am going to the theatre this evening. I have season tickets to the Broadway series at the Fox here in St. Louis and I am seeing Cirque Dreams-Jungle Adventure. Should be interesting.

  161. Margo, I hope Woz stays too. He looks like he is having so much fun. Like Cloris last year, let some of the others who don't have a chance go home first.

    It's strange, but I have been watching since the first season. I have reached the point where I can just about guess what score the judges will give each of the dancers.

    Last night I asked how long y'all think that Molly and Jason will last. I agree with the at least 3 months, less than 6. I think when Molly finds out that there will be no more of the fancy trips, goodies, etc, the romance will be over. I just can't see her wanting to live in Seattle on $60,000 a year. That is an expensive place!

    Hello Becky,

    I couldn't agree more. Part of the reason I watch DWTS is for the fun and laughs. I'm not a dancing purist by any means. The person I root for and pick to win is in my opinion the BEST dancer, but I also enjoy the hijinks (sp) and the goofy performances. I wanted to see Cloris outlast Susan Lucci last year because Susan, to me, was painful to watch and Cloris made me laugh.

    I never wanted or thought for a minute that Cloris would win or deserved to win it all. My WV is too funny to repeat. :)

    ReplyDelete
  163. I have Holly in the pool and so I guess I should be rooting for her, but she's not my favorite. She's really stiff legged and looks so uncomfortable out there on the floor.

    I enjoyed the results show and am anxious to see how Woz does this week. He's having fun, but he's no dancer.

    I'm sort of glad that Belinda is gone. She was too uptight.

    What is Lil Kim referring to when she said she was in prison. Sorry people, but I don't follow these things, so you guys have to keep me up to date.

    Some (most) of these guys are "hot", whatever that means. I'm 71, but I think I remember.

    Enjoy... going to go talk about AI.

    ReplyDelete
  164. Meb....this is from Wikipedia.

    On March 17, 2005, Kim was convicted of three counts of conspiracy and one count of perjury for lying to a Federal grand jury about her friends' involvement in a 2001 shooting outside the Hot 97 studios in Manhattan.

    During the trial of her co-manager, Damion "D-Roc" Butler, and her bodyguard, Suif "Gutta" Jackson, a former member of the hip-hop group Junior M.A.F.I.A, she testified not to have known they were at the scene.[7] However, video footage from a security camera placed all three at the scene, exiting the building. This directly contravened testimony before the grand jury.[8]

    In July 2005, Kim was sentenced to a one-year-and-a-day, thirty days home detention upon release from custody and three years of probation. She requested to serve her time at prison camp in Connecticut in order to be close to her mother, however, she was ordered to report to the Federal Detention Center in Philadelphia[10] instead where she served the entirety of her sentence.[11]

  165. Even though I had Belinda in the pool, I wasn't sad to see her go. I was happy that Steve gets to stick around at least for another week. I just hope he doesn't do too much damage to his foot. I was happy for Lacey & Steve-O also. I felt so bad for her. She looked so scared that they would have to do a dance-off. I loved Chelsie and Dimitri's dance.

  166. *****DWTS POOL UPDATE**********

    Top of the Morning-Y'all.

    Well I'm sorry to say Belinda & Jonathan have danced their last dance. RBennnie you aur now free to root for whomever you would like. I think Woz and I need all the help we can get. You are welcome aboard - the water is nice a calm today.
    I haven't watched yet as we returned home at 10:45 last night. I did fast forward to the end and saw who got voted out. It sounded like the judges gave them the same score making the dance-off moot. Dumb.

    Gilles Marini & Cheryl- becky & Sydney

    Melissa Rycroft & Tony - Monty924

    Steve Wozniak & Karina - Margo

    Belinda Carlisle & Jonathan - RBennie

    By the way I cut my first bouquet of daffodils today. Yea is is spring FINALLY. I observed Mr Wren making a nest in a pot on top of a table with plastic chairs upside down on top. He flys past a perfectly good bird house to hop under these chairs. The chairs are going back on the ground and I had planned on putting flowers in the pot - so hopefully Mrs Wren explains to him that a nice cozy house would be more suitable for their brood.
    I love the way Mr Wren sings - telling anyone who will listen that he has a beautiful new nest already to move into - nice and moss lined.

  167. Margo, I would love to join the DWTS pool if you are still adding to the group!

    Hi everyone! I was a bit apprehensive about the group of D list stars announced for this season, but it looks like it could be entertaining.

    Following the first two weeks, I am liking Gilles, Melissa or Shawn for the win, but one of the others may really step it up throughout the season.

    I think they may be encouraging the female professionals to wear more clothes this season. I barely recognized Edyta. :)

    See you next week ~

    ReplyDelete
  168. if I follow the way I did everyone you would be on Melissa and Tony's team. Welcome aboard. I may join you when Woz goes home with Monty924.

  169. Thanks Caroline... I would never have thought to look it up myself. Smile.

    Wow... would you lie to a Grand Jury? You know they're going to find out the truth and there ya go! Jail. (Except Clinton, of course).

  170. Anyone here?

    ReplyDelete
  171. Here we go folks. Dresses are beautiful tonight for the most part. I have some left over spinach and artichoke dip if anyone's hungry?

    ReplyDelete
  172. Hey Everyone!

    Happy Monday. Took a bit to find this thread.

    Denise's dance, sorry whoever has her, stunk. She is so stiff!

    And how about Max in that outfit? LOL

    ReplyDelete
  173. I agree with that. Denise looked scared to death tonight... and very tentative. Almost Susan Lucci like.

    ReplyDelete
  174. Chuck, much improved tonight. I was happy to see that for Julianne.

    ReplyDelete
  175. Once again, there goes Len with the bummer score.

    ReplyDelete
  176. Hey, Monty and Lucy (can we shorten your name, please)?

    Denise and Max were not that bad. She deserved better than a 5.

    Chuck and Julianne were excellent. I missed their scores. What were they, please? She can make anyone look good.

    ReplyDelete
  177. Chuck and Julianne ... 8, 7, 8

    ReplyDelete
  178. Wow! Holly can shake it. I guess it is the breast making the the butt stick out. Wonder what kind of score Bruno and Carrie Ann will give them.

    ReplyDelete
  179. Those scores were brutal, but CarriAnn was going to lower the boom because of the lift anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  180. Steve O was a little flat footed but I loved it. And, I absolutely love that song. I'm glad Len was gentle on him.

    ReplyDelete
  181. Great dance for LT and Edyta. He's so light on his feet. I love to watch him dance. What? 7-5-7? That was much better than that! Grrrr

    ReplyDelete
  182. Carrie Ann and Bruno need some of the laxative I suggested for Len a few shows back.

    Lawrence and Edyta were great! He sure has rhythm, especially for such a big guy. Boy, these scores suck tonight!

    I don't understand why a lift is counted against them,yet they can do cartwheels and it is okay.

    ReplyDelete
  183. Hi all-

    Denise and Holly were awful. Denise was so stiff and Holly looks confused.

    ReplyDelete
  184. Hey, Margo. Glad you could make it.

    ReplyDelete
  185. did anyone notice wynonna (judd) in the audience last week? or at least someone that looked exactly like her.

    any idea if she is going to appear as an entertainer on a coming tuesday? or did she in the past?

    ReplyDelete
  186. Shawm and Mark looked terrific. Bruno must have taken a happy pill. He is gushing again. Great scores. They deserved it.

    ReplyDelete
  187. Okay, here comes the first 10 of the season. HOT!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  188. Giles and Cheryl sizzled! Darn he is good looking!

    Bruno, Bruno, Bruno... don't be such a drama queen. Great scores. I agree with Carrie Ann, he shook things I didnt think they could shake!

    ReplyDelete
  189. this is "my" couple (in the pool)
    not sure how i feel about them, although i do think this dance was okay

    ReplyDelete
