I wasn't at all surprised by who went home - I definitely thought it was the right choice. Of the guys I liked the driver (Helio?) and the model the best. I can't remember any of their names except for Wayne Newton. I am also surprised that he didn't do better - I would have thought he had more rhythm and swing.

I like this show too! I had to watch to see Wayne Newton! My dad used to be Wayne's road manager / backup singer - so it was good to see the old man again! But.....he can not dance!!!!!!!! I have to root for him though because I like his partner! I've rooted for the Cheryl team every year!!

As for the ladies, Jane Seymore was absolutely graceful! I think that the guys have an advantage because all the guys have to do is move a little and let their partners do all the shimmying.

I've never seen this show but it seems really interesting. I love that kind of dancing. Funny but from the still pictures I would have guessed that Wayne Newton was klutzy and Jane Seymore super-graceful - it shows up even in photos.

I definitely relate more to poor Wayne dance-wise - I took a "West Coast Swing" class a few years ago and I was the BIGGEST klutz in that class. They only way I can even get through it is to count and look at my feet while dancing. Nobody ever mistook me for Ginger Rogers, that's for sure. It did give me a better appreciation of dancers though.

Hey you won't believe this but I took my mom to see Bobby Burgess (of Lawrence Welk fame) and his partner Elayne somebody -- they were GREAT! Good dancers and really good sense of humor in the show too.

I absolutley love the show, I've watched it for a few seasons, I do hope a woman wins this time around. I'm still in deliberation with myself on who I want to win. Maybe Sabrina has come to the show with a little more experience than what should be allowed...but she did tear up the floor!

But Sabrina's skill is mostly in hip hop...so it'll be interesting to see if/when she has to do a slower dance. She's very talented, but she might not be as graceful when she can't mix in a little hip hop.

Last night's show was pretty impressive! Lots of good dances last night--and Marie and Jonathan were third on the leaderboard! Not bad for a 46 year old!!

Looks like Mark Cuban is in the most danger of going home. Wayne Newton was not good at all....but he'll end up staying because of his fanbase.

Jennie Garth's partner ended up sliding on her dress and ended up on his butt on the floor! They didn't mark them down for it either...hmmm.....

poor Jennie looked so distraught about the mess up! It looked like she was trying not to cry the entire time the judges were talking.

I'm not a big fan of Mark Cuban (understatement, but I know some people on here are fans so I want to be polite...hahaha) so I won't mind at all when he goes home.

The driver guy (Helio?) did a really good job! I was impressed. It also reflects well on his partner for being a good teacher.

Jane Seymour looks waaaay too good to be 56. lol It's crazy how toned and in-shape she is.

I'm sad about who went home tonight. Out of the two people that had the lowest scores, I would have rathered the other person leave. (Don't want to spoil it if others haven't seen it yet).

Yep, I agree.....but it proves to me that a big fanbase will keep you in the competition long after your ability will....

I heard a rumor that Jane Seymour had to drop out because her Mom died. It is very sad--she would have gone very far. Even my 16 yo DD was impressed with her! She really couldn't believe that she is 56!

My favorite is Helio.

Jane's mom did pass away, but they said Jane will be staying in the contest and dedicating it to her mother.

She just couldn't be at the reveal last night.

I'm watching. I had never heard of half these stars before, including Helio, but he's my favorite now. His jive deserved higher than what he got from the judges. And I think they played a little loose with all the 27s last night.

I'm guessing Mark & Wayne in the bottom two tonight, with Mark going out.

Angie watches and we DVR it...that way she can pause it for me, so I can see Jullianne and Edyta, when they dance, AND still watch my ballgames down in the familyroom.
