My rambling thought of the day... I think the music is much better this season.

by **Lesallee** Fri Oct 09, 2015 5:24 pm

DWTSGossip says there is a double elimination coming soon. Betcha this seasons "shocking elimination" will be in there.

by Oakma Fri Oct 09, 2015 5:37 pm

Yes "shocking " elimination .... maybe the married couple will go out together ....

I have a feeling you might be correct. Although I think Carlos and Alexa are great dancers, I don't think they have the fanbase to take them into the final. It's similar to the Charlie and Meryl situation except Meryl and Charlie are more popular and have a bigger fanbase.

I hope Paula leaves before them.

I think Paula is next! But I have no idea who would go after her! Their all doing so well ! First season I felt that way!

Me, too. And Andy hasn't been doing all that well, either. He's sliding into obscurity, I think.

Yes ... I think Paula will be next.Then we will have the "shocking" elimination and then the usual "beat down" of the "favourite" couple where they get an un-called for low score to spur them on to harder work and even better performances ... then there will be the team that start talking like "we just do our best and whatever happens,happens" ....

I can write this stuff ...

Tamar would make a great "shocking elimination". It would be another Elizabeth Berkely situation: great dancer but no real love from the general audience. But then we wouldn't get to see her dance a freestyle, which would be a bummer. This is a really tough season -- I like way too many of the stars.

Let me boil that down. Your critique is the show is too good- congratulations. That's a first. High five

by **Glittersisgld** Sat Oct 10, 2015 12:44 pm

They better not send Tamar away. She is one of the few ones who I find entertaining. Elizabeth was a good dancer and I liked her, but I think Tamar has a more interesting personality when she dances. She maybe has more spark.

America tends to vote for the ones that make them smile.

I loved Elizabeth Berkeley and the despicable comments so called DWTS fans directed her way angered me no end.

Elizabeth suffered from a lack of confidence which held her back; certainly Tamar doesn't share that. She appears totally confident and completely at ease in her own skin.

I like watching Tamar's dancing, she is very talented. She may make F4 but I can't see a win for Valentay. Tamar simply hasn't connected on a personal level with the majority of viewers. Nastia didn't either and she was another lovely dancer. But that affinity with the fans is all important in a show that is really a popularity contest.

by **Glittersisgld** Sat Oct 10, 2015 1:24 pm

I guess that's what it is, that Tamar has more confidence. I don't know why Elizabeth didn't have it, especially because she was in a movie where she was dancing.

And that sums up the dilemma of this show in the best possible way.

Elizabeth was someone with previous dance experience, who was insecure if she'd be able to fulfill the high expectations she had for herself. Tamar is starting from zero and able to enjoy what she accomplishes.

The reaction to Showgirls is what whalloped Elizabeth's confidence. She was vilified for that role and it hurt her so deeply she has only recently come to terms with it.

Interestingly, Showgirls has become a cult classic and 2015 audiences viewing it love the movie and Elizabeth.

Elizabeth's dance experience was some 17 years prior to doing DWTS and really didn't impact her performance in any way. Not like what is now called slut shaming did. My gosh, that poor girl was even ripped apart because some goofs said her eyes were too big, not to mention the several fools on fb who proclaimed her useless because she was "too tall". Grrr! I'm getting angry again, better quit!

Mad!

by **DeadManDancing** Sat Oct 10, 2015 2:46 pm

You're so cute when you are getting angry...
Anyway, in a couple of years people may look back at Elizabeth's DWTS appearance and be like "hey, she was great. She should have been in the finals". Which is the truth.

It's showing up on the TV on line as being on tonight from 8-10 PM. Where did you hear this? Monday Night Football is on cable and DWTS is on broadcast TV where I live.

by **Psychee22** Mon Oct 12, 2015 6:41 pm

She must live in the Pittsburgh area. If I understand this correctly, I gather that ABC affiliates provide free broadcasting for the folks back home, and the Pittsburgh Steelers are playing tonight in San Diego.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!

She might try to see it online, though.

You can also watch all access online and at last you can see the judges table and see Maksim Very Happy

.....I watch it during the west coast broadcast after I've watched the show....
