DWTS Season 5 - Week 6

People didnt vote for Sabrina because they didnt like the fact that she dances as her day job. No one likes to put a professional (even in another style of dance) up against people who have never danced before.

But Stacy (and Mario) both made it to the finals.
 
Yes, was glad to see Louis again. Also it was nice to see Jonathan and Anna dance together as well....

Did Anna brush up against the piano? I actually jumped when I saw that, because I kept thinking... I hope she doesn't hit any of the candles that were on top of the piano! ;)
 
Waltz Tango Foxtrot?!? This is total BULL****! :mad::confused::(
I agree that someone else would have been a better choice to go, but her Foxtrot seemed to have elements that she used in her Paso, that she used in her ... now we'll never know about the other two, waltz and tango. ;)
 
America likes an underdog. (Cite: Season 1.) Young dancer? Not only a dancer, but shown dancing for her video this week? They put a spotlight on her not being an underdog.

I wondered about the video myself. In my opinion, some celebs got away with having dance experience since some haven't danced in awhile. But showing Sabrina as a current dancer might not have helped her case any. It was just a thought I had that night is all.
 
Halfway through the season, I don't care about underdogs and experience. And I'm not interested in watching a show where people try hard and overcome stuff but are still only above average dancers. Sabrina was one of the three best dancers on the show, and that's why I wanted to see her in the finals.
 
Watching the show now.

Poor Tony! Having to do the group routine by himself.

Great to see Louis! I really miss him. Did something go a little bit wrong with their ending pose?

Boy, Tony looked truly shocked when they said Jane was safe. From his expression at the beginning of the show, I think he thought they were toast. I used to suspect that they actually told the dancers who was out before the show, but his reaction convinced me otherwise. If he's that good an actor, he's in the wrong profession!

The Dance War group--all I can say is that I hope they are better singers than dancers! Or maybe it was the choreography. I wasn't sure what kind of dancing it was supposed to be--hip hop? I think I've learned enough from SYTYCD to appreciate good hip hop, and this didn't seem to qualify. I *was* impressed with the speed of the lift where the girl rotated vertically.

Can any Brits out there tell me where Len's accent is from?
.
Now, from Sabrina and Mark's expressions, I think they know they are out (maybe they only tell the one who will be leaving).

It was a shock that Sabrina left (or would have been if I hadn't read the spoilers). Dare I hope that America has learned enough about ballroom that they recogized that her foxtrot was too harsh and out of the dance's character? Or is it just the WTFVw curse? I guess I just don't understand who is voting and why.

Didn't like Barry's version of "My Eyes Adored You." Much prefer the original by Frankie Valli (or the version by the guy who played him in "Jersey Boys").

Well, that's enough of my play-by-play reactions. At least I didn't post them all as individual posts!
 
But Stacy (and Mario) both made it to the finals.

I think people liked Sabrina. She got the top scores every week through the first half of the competition, and I think her fans just got complacent in voting. Then, she had one weak dance this week and did not get her usual 27+. And, unfortunately for her, she got eliminated before ever being in the bottom two. Have you noticed the trend that the person in the bottom two who isn't eliminated is rarely in the bottom two the following week?! Fans wake up when they see their favorite in the bottom two. Also, starting next week, each celebrity will perform two dances, which would have worked in Sabrina's favor. I can't imagine her having two weak dances in the same night! If Sabrina had only survived this week, I'm sure she would have made the finals without ever being the bottom two again. I will miss watching her!
 
I was shocked! So was Carrie Ann, and she had tears in her eyes.
I was sure it would be Cameron.
Past seasons were easier to rank, and call the winner early.
Not this year!

What an exciting season we are having!
