Happy 100th Dancing With The Stars

The show was OK last night. A lot of good dances, led by Jason and Edyta's first dance and Mario and Karina's first dance. Kudos also go to Cheryl who chorographed two amazing dances for her injured partner. She and Christian were really good - definitely the best of the night. Kristi was solid again. That leaves Marissa....

Even though Marissa got high scores, she needs to go this week. She is the definitely the worst dancer of the group, and although I appreciate her bubbly personality and her smile, she has made it far enough. Let the real competition begin with the people who can really dance.

To prove this show is fixed, this week my prediction for the other member of the bottom two is Jason and Edyta. Since they have not been in the bottom two yet this year, it is time for this to happen just to increase the drama and raise the stakes going into the semifinals next week. Jason and Edyta's first dance was my favorite of the night and that dress she had on...she is awesome. They stil are the ones to beat, along with Mark and Kristi.

Mark and Kristi were good, although I agree the second dance was a little rough. Unfortunately, Mark really showed up Kristi in that dance and it was very apparent who the profession and who the amateur was. They still are great and will be in the finals.

Mario and Karina were good, although Mario was too wild in the second dance. I really liked the first dance though. They really do make a nice couple - no, I am not starting more rumors.

Christian and Cheryl were really good. First of all, anyone who would wear a sparkly arm band on their arm deserves props (although you know someone in the NBA will be wearing that next week). Second, I thought Cheryl did a really great job of hiding that injury. They should be commended for what they did.

I will also admit that I am really surprised that Christian is still in the competition since he was a total unknown. There is no doubt he is the most improved dancer on the show this year. I also think that it helps he is with Cheryl since she is a fan favorite - I personally think she is annoying when she dances because she looks so intense. Her facial expressions are hilarious.

I am going to miss the show tonight, which bums me out since it is the 100th episode of the show and all of my favorites are going to be on including Helio, Maks and Julianne. Hopefully, I can watch it on abc.com tomorrow.
