Encores and results
Posted: Thursday, September 25, 2008 by Travis Cody in
Well, on Tuesday we lost celebrity Jeffrey Ross and pro Edyta Sliwinska's LEGS LEGS LEGS LEGS. That's not Jeff in the picture...that's Edyta's husband and professional partner, Alec Mazo.
Who will join them as the second pair eliminated?
Let's cue that theme music and find out, shall we?
Wait! I forgot the proper sequence for results posts. DOH! You need some encores first.
I beg your pardon. I just finished the first 8 week section in my certificate program and I'm a little wonky.
So encores...Pam and I were pleasantly surprised on Monday night by Warren Sapp. Here is the Cha Cha Cha he danced with partner Kym Johnson.
I must give dear Julie her Maks fix!
Ahhhhh...we begin with one of our favorite things as the pros demonstrate a series of Latin styles. We have Rumba followed by Samba and Paso Doble and I think there was a bit of Mambo in there too, all danced to Under Pressure from Queen with David Bowie.
Here's a reminder of our leader board:
26 Brooke and Derek
23 Cody and Julianne
23 Toni and Alec
22 Warren and Kym
22 Susan and Tony
21 Misty and Maks
21 Rocco and Karina
21 Lance and Lacey
21 Maurice and Cheryl
19 Ted and Inna
18 Kim and Mark
16 Cloris and Corky
Mr Cranky Pants can whine all he wants to about modern content, but we love Lance Bass and Lacey Schwimmer. Our favorite was the Cha Cha Cha from Monday.
We thought that the dance of both nights was the Quickstep from Brooke Burke and Derek Hough.
The first couple that is safe is Brooke and Derek, which is no surprise to us. Joining them next week will be Kim and Mark. Good for her, since she had to wait nearly two hours to find out if she was safe on Tuesday.
Well, Jeffrey and Edyta get to dance their Quickstep after all. He does a very nice job. I'll say this for Jeff Ross...he couldn't dance very well but he didn't make fun of the show.
More results...Cloris and Corky are safe! Oh my.
Singer Jesse McCartney is in the ballroom, performing his song Leavin' accompanied by guest pros. Dangit...Tom introduced them too fast and I didn't catch his name, but it's nice to see the return of Ashley DelGrosso.
Now we must endure Adam Corolla. Given a choice, I think I'd rather have the Jimmy Kimmel junk back.
More results. The next safe couple is Maurice and Cheryl.
The Jonas Brothers perform their song Love Bug, accompanied by Lacey & Derek and Mark & Inna dancing Jive.
More pairs advance to next week...Misty & Maks, Warren & Kym, Susan & Tony, and Rocco & Karina.
And now the final three couples to dance next week...Lance & Lacey, Cody & Julianne, and Toni & Alec.
That means Ted & Inna are out.
Dangit! I'm really out of it. I didn't catch next week's dances.
I hope you enjoyed my super-duper-step-over-lip-lock season premier of Dancing with the Stars. And if you didn't, well, all I can say to that is...
...tough noogies!
Heheheheheheheeee!
Hi Trav!
I LOVED your season premier recaps! You did a fantabulous job. :-) Thank You! Last nights show was great. I think with all that we have seen in this first week has made it obvious it is going to be a very exciting season.
Hope you took your *wonky* self to bed after you typed this up and are getting yourself some much needed sleep. :-)
Hugs,
Kimmie
