  • Motown week separates the pack…a little bit.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, it is Motown Week on Dancing With the Stars! The show opens with Smokey Robinson, Martha Reeves, and the Temptations serenading us.  Lovely medley of songs.  This is going to be a great night for music, that’s for sure! The stars are introduced and enter the stage…what a splash of color this is!…

  • DWTS – Elimination Round for Week 5 (SPOILERS!)

    The results show begins with Maria and Derek performing the encore dance.  It’s very clear that they’re just having all-out fun at this point – the kiss that happened between Maria and Derek last night moves to CarrieAnn and Bruno tonight.  Fun and funny! I look back to my first recap of the season and…

  • Things are heating up in the ballroom! Latin Week proved interesting.

    Be sure to check out my previous post that provides a bit of analysis and a bit of prediction for Latin Week. Of course we begin the show with Tom providing witty comments about the elimination show the previous week.  This time there’s the added “perk” of hearing him butcher the Spanish language.  Ah, Tom. …

  • DWTS – What can we expect from “Latin Week”? Or should we even bother to guess?

    It’s week 5 of Dancing With the Stars.  It’s “Latin Week” – so that means everyone will dance either the Salsa, the Samba, or the Argentine Tango! The competition is really heating up – as if it hasn’t been hot since week one!  But last week’s elimination show had everyone rattled – the couples at the top of…

  • DWTS – Elimination Round for Week 4 (Spoilers!!)

    KISS is back to open the results show, keeping Rock Week going strong.  It’s nice to see that KISS hasn’t lost it.  I mean, I was never a huge fan – I didn’t own their albums – but I respect their longevity. Looks like we’re going right into the eliminations.  First up….Gavin/Karina and Melissa/Maks. We…

  • A mixed night: Dancing With The Stars gets a new leader and a few injuries

    Here we go with the 4th week of competition – it’s Rock Week!  So, of course, the show has to open with KISS performing.  I mean, what other band would it be? And it looks like everyone is getting into the spirit – the troupe, the band.  It’s kinda fun. Even my MOTHER is getting…

SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS! Tonight we’ve come to the 2nd round of eliminations – one more star will be sent packing.  This is a tough one.  I’m usually pretty good at calling who is the most likely to be sent home. Not this year. The competition has been so tight that I truly believe that it…

  • A night of tears and cheers…but not many jeers: Dancing With The Stars has another good week!

  • DWTS – First to go home. (Spoilers!)

    So we have come to elimination night.  I think things will be pretty predictable tonight.  But, I’ve learned to expect the unexpected on this show.  I’ll wait until the end. This is how things stand after the first 2 weeks of dancing: Katherine and Mark – 2 week total of 52/60 William and Cheryl –…

  • Whereas last week rocked, this week was rocky – welcome to reality, DWTS

    Week 2 of Dancing With the Stars has pretty high standard to measure up to – last week was amazingly good.  So will the stars be able to handle it this week? Time will tell, my friends.  Time will tell. Roshon and Chelsie dancing the Quickstep. I’m sorry, I still don’t like this guy.  He’s…
