Enjoy the show!

Looking forward to reading everyone's comments! Hope Team Kirstie/Hines/Kendra kick the other team right out of the ballroom. And maybe the guest judge actually judges.

Not looking forward to seeing Mark and his team get coached by his mom. Hope they don't get the first perfect score.

Go Romeo!

Tell me about it! It would have done more for morale than hearing those singers butcher "classic" Americana songs

I hope Chelsea/Mark don't get the pimp spot tonight.

Wow, these teams are lopsided. Younger & Limber team vs. Older & More Neurotic Team.

But everyone will probably get 8s/9s anyway, making it all pretty pointless.

Yeah, and not surprised Team Chelsea/Mark (and then those other people) get the Lady GaGa song. Team K/H/K are getting Ke$sha.

I hear this going on in the lobby so I got bits and pieces-doesn't sound like they got very high scores?

I think we're at the point of no return when it comes to seeing 8s, 9s, and 10s. I doubt we'll see anything lower than a 7 at this point.

Dance wise it seems like the teams are lop sided, but I'd take a guess that Hines, Kirstie, and Kendra are bigger favorites behind the scenes. I always love the underdogs

And I really hope having a guest judge isn't foreshadowing for the future that we'll have 4 judges on the panel.

Interesting that Kirstie was picked first for the team dance. Because she has a huge fan base? Or because she rocked her cha cha the first week? Or are people just choosing friends?

Probably a lot of it is friend based. Maybe a tad strategy.

Young & Limber got 8-7-8.

Ralph's the only one who hasn't had the cha cha yet. I think that's been the only case where just 1 person hasn't had the team dance style as their own. I wish they'd mix these up. I don't mind them doing the same dance style (seems more balanced than pitting a cha cha against a paso) but this is, I think, the 3rd season in a row the team dance is the cha cha.
