Dancing with the Stars: Week 5 Results

I turned on the TV at 10pm, just in time to see the eliminated contestants do their final dance. Because the results show ran until 10:01pm. Thanks, ABC — I hope that extra minute was totally worth it. Oh well, now I won’t be on the edge of my seat as I watch the results show. That said, onward with … Dancing with the Stars!

Last night: people danced well! Tonight: a Michael Jackson tribute! Also: 9-time Grammy winner Norah Jones looks cute as a bug! But first, an endless recap of last night’s dancing. Turns out that Kelly hurt her ankle during her dance, and Ozzy wheeled her out to an ambulance to go get it checked out. Bergeron lets us know that she has a sprained foot and a contusion, but will be able to dance the Jitterbug next week (if she makes it through).

Len lets us know that the encore will go to Donny & Kym for their Argentine Tango. It’s just as delightful as it was last night, and Donny’s serious face is just as serious. You go, Donny Freakin’ Osmond. I like your face more every week.

Dancing with the Stars: Week 5 Performances

Come on, guys — 11 innings? That’s almost more torture than the first… Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Week 5 Performances

Dancing with the Stars – Week 4 Performances

It’s week 4 on Dancing with the Stars, and we’re down one DeLay due to injury.  It’s a darn good thing the show started with 16 contestants this season – the producers can probably spare a couple more unexpected departures without it affecting this season’s… Read More »Dancing with the Stars – Week 4 Performances

Dancing with the Stars: Week 3 Results

The results episode starts as usual with a brief recap of last night. And then Bergeron reminds us of Tom’s foot injuries, and warns that we might have two eliminations this week. Roll the credits, so we can get a more in-depth recap of last… Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Week 3 Results

Dancing with the Stars: Week 2 Results

All’s fair in love and dance, but it’s Tuesday night, which means another couple is going home. During the recap of last night’s performances, which provided a fun mix of Mya, manliness, and Muppets, there were a couple choice quotes: Kelly candidly called her performance… Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Week 2 Results

Dancing with the Stars: Week 2 Performances

It’s week 2 on Dancing with the Stars, and the men and women will finally be competing head to head. The dances this week are the jive, the quickstep, and the tango, which are all difficult styles in their own right, plus they’ve only had… Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Week 2 Performances

Dancing with the Stars: Week 1 Results

Two nights, four hours, and twenty ballroom dances later, the first results show of season 9 is here! Based on this week’s shows, I’d say the season is shaping up quite nicely – but alas, the ballroom is cruel, and two people are going home.… Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Week 1 Results
