Who will win Dancing with the Stars?

Last night’s episode was very enlightening.   There were 2 dances performed by each contestant:  a judge’s pick and a freestyle.  Carlos was assigned the Foxtrot while Alek was given the Rumba.  Meanwhile, Nick was given the Jive while Bindi needed to dance the quickstep.  The judges’ pick was meant to show whether the dancer had improved in the dance style since the first time they did it.  Then all dancers had a chance to do freestyle.  Bindi’s freestyle performance stole the show!

Watch our video below and let us know how you feel about the DWTS epsiode.  We would love to hear your thoughts.

Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s the Final Four on DWTS!

Hi everyone!  Last night’s Dancing with the Stars did not send any star home since Tamar Braxton withdrew from the competition after last Monday’s dance.   Watch our video to catch our review of the episode.   Share your thoughts with us!  Who do you hope wins??

Alexa’s Departure from DWTS is a Travesty!!!

Last night, the bottom two contestants on DWTS were Carlos and Alexa PenaVega.  How is that possible?  Alexa and Mark did a fabulous contemporary routine to song, Wicked Games.  Alexa had perfect scores on both numbers last night, ans strong scores for the past few weeks.  Alexa has grown tremendously both as a dancer and as a performer.  Other contestants such as Alek and Tamar have not continued to grow like Alexa.   Hopefully Alexa’s presence on DWTS has led her to other roles.  We wish her all the best.

Watch our review to see what other issues we had with last night’s episode.

Dance Off was Best Part of DWTS’ Hero Week!!!

Who watched last monday night’s Dancing with the Stars?  It was Hero week so we learned Marc Antony was Carlos’ hero, and Grace Kelly was Bindi’s.  Andy Grammar’s hero was his Mom while Nick’s was his wife.

Sharna Burgess choreographed a beautiful contemporary number.  The rest of dancing itself was rather “meh”.  However, the dance off portion was illuminating.  Seeing Bindi perform the jive side by side with Carlos allowed us viewers to see who is stronger.  Watch our video to hear our comments!!

Too much “FOG” on this week’s Halloween episode of Dancing with the Stars!

Although this week’s dances were very entertaining, it was really hard to see any of the actual dance steps because of the fog and the constant camera movement.  Mark Ballas was very creative as Edward Scissorhands, and Alexa was a fantastic partner for him.  Bindi executed the Argentine Tango with sharpness and precision like a pro.  We are sad to see Hayes Grier leave.  He was quite the entertainer and dancer for only 15 years old.  We are sure to be seeing more of him in the coming years.

Famous Dances Week was a Success on DWTS!

Last night’s Dancing with the Stars was very entertaining.  The opening number choreographed by Mandy Moore was spectacular.  She paid tribute to several famous dances, including Fred and Ginger, Chorus Line, Chicago, Singing in the Rain, and even All the Single Ladies by Beyonce.  The number would have been even more spectacular if the music could have a mash-up from the famous dances.   The stars and their partners also provided us with a huge array of dances, including, from Britney Spears’ to John Travolta in Grease to Elvis Presley.

Watch our review of the dances.  We are sorry to see Paula Deen leave but as she says, “Now she can see her grandbabies”.

Did you connect with DWTS’ stars after learning about their most memorable year?

We are almost halfway through the Dancing with the Stars, Season 21.  Some of the stars such as Bindi Irwin, Hayes Grier, Nick Carter, Tamar Braxton and Alex and Carlos Penavega are better dancers than when they started, but not as improved as we would like to see.  Perhaps this season’s cast did not have much, if any, prior dancing experience? Do you feel as if this week’s packages affected the judge’s scores?

Do You Feel the Stars are Improving on DWTS?

First of all, let us say we are sorry that Kim Zolciak had to leave the show for health reasons, and that Tony Dovolani will no longer be competing this year.  Tony, like the other professional dancers on the show,  is a great partner because he is always trying to choreograph to his star’s strengths.

As for this episode, we enjoyed the TV show music theme.  Mark Ballas was incredibly creative with his Breaking Bad theme, and Alexa kept up with him beautifully.  Alek has been improving each week as well.  Was anyone surprised by who was in the bottom 2 this week?

Did the Stars on DWTS pull off learning 2 dances this week?

We watched Tuesday night’s DWTS episode where the dancers were required to perform a second dance this week.  However the highlight for us was the snippets we learned about the professional dancers.  Who would have enjoyed watching an hour learning more about Derek, Anna, Val, Louis and all other other professionals on DWTS rather than watching 2 hours of dancing this week?

Week #2 of Dancing With the Stars!

Did you watch last night’s episode?  Why does Derek get above average dancers each season?  Why is it necessary to make reference to people’s figures instead of their dancing? Did you feel that some of the dancers improved?   Watch our video to hear our thoughts.  Share your comments about the episode with us as well.
