4/11 DWTS12 Show Discussion **Spoilers**

[jucamer]

You know, I get the impression that this year, whether they have a contender or not, all the dancers are pretty much happy with their partners, and the stars are reasonably happy with their dancers/instructors as well. No one has an overly controversial or overly self-aggrandizing partner--or at least that's they way it seems.

I'm guessing this has been a pleasant season for everyone all the way around. I hope the ratings reflect that that's what the audience prefers, because I sure don't miss the controversies stirred by people like Bristol or Kate or Master P.

Oh, and I really don't miss Derek at all.

to all of the above. Nice to watch the show without my stomach turning.

Me neither. If this is what DWTS will be like without him, here's hoping his movie career keeps him too busy to return. I can already guess season 13, if he's back, he'll get the ringer and a 4th trophy. Might as well just call it a season

This has been a very fun season. There's just a positive vibe all around. Even the judges, CA with her lifts and all, are tolerable.

WOW - Hines and Kim - great job!!!!!

10's all around (IMO)

[bee stung lips]

Awesome, awesome, awesome! That rocked!

[ranger1rg]

hines and kim -- awesome, just awesome.

[karalott]

Kym has always put together good paso routines. From Joey to Warren to Donny to Jerry, they've always been something. If she couldn't pull it off with Hines, there'd be no hope for them to win. This was going to be his dance.

[Chacharo]

Great job by Hines. It was strange watching him dancing and not smiling.

Hines 9/8/8

[jucamer]

Whaaaaaaaattttt 9/8/8 ???

[mnmhughes]

How in the world did they get 2 8's?

[ranger1rg]
