It’s time for the results! Who will go home tonight?

Recap and Videos after the JUMP…

The pros–you knows, the peeps who can actually dance–perform a group number to “Pressure”:

Tom pimps some “Dancing With The Stars” CD. Next, the inevitable re-cap of last night’s dances.

It’s kiddies night! The Jonas Brothers and Jesse McCartney guest star tonight. And Adam Carolla returns. And now, there’s more re-cap. Thirty minutes people, that’s all we need here! You’re killing me with the filler!

Jeffrey and Edyta are back to dance their quickstep. Jeff’s sparkly eyepatch is gone. Aw, poor Jeff. That wasn’t terrible:

And now, more time-wasting interviews with the contestants. Zz. Kim wants to bring out her “Inner J-lo” Good luck with that! Cloris and Corky are safe. Cloris is safe to terrorize the judges panel for one more week.

Jesse McCartney performs his platinum hit “Leavin” Ashly DelGrosso-Costa is a featured dancer:

Adam Corolla does an out of studio bit, interviewing random passers-by about the show. TIME WASTER. Zz:

Time to save another couple…and it’s Maurice and Cheryl. Ohh. The Jonas Brothers dance with the pros–next! Uh. Ok.

OMG David Blaine Dive of Death is Next. Thank God for America’s Got Talent, which is next. And I never thought I’d say that.

The Jonas Brothers perform. One of the brothers danced for about 30 seconds. Whoopie!

Ugh, more filler Zzzzzz. The results do not have to be longer than 30 minutes. The next video segment is all about the fake trash talk: Gee, like I really care how long it takes Toni Braxton to put on her makeup. Lance says he’s wearing more rhinestones than he’s ever had. Oh really. Warren Sapp is going to kick Susan Lucci’s ass. That skinny thang would crack in half:

Two more couples are safe: Misty and Maks and Warren and Kym.

Back from break. Interviews with the couples who are safe. Filler Filler Filler. More are safe: Susan and Tony and Rocco and Karina.

Four couples are left. The first couple safe is Lance and Lacey. Next is Cody and Julieanne. Tom mentions that the safe couple is not necessarily in the Bottom 2. Thanks for your honesty! And then, Ted and Inna are eliminated. Toni and Alec live to dance another week.

Check out Ted and Inna’s elimination. Ted’s a man’s man…he don’t need no stinkin’ dance competition:

    It’s Ashly Del Grosso!! Good to see her again. They should have brought her back as an instructor instead of Lacey or Inna! Maybe she’ll be back next season.

    Ashly looked FABULOUS. I’d so much rather see her than Lacey. Sigh. Very nice to see just a few seconds of Maks and Karina dancing together, though. I love it when those two dance together. They are both so very hot.

    I’m glad that Rocco, Maurice and Misty all made it through. Phew. But now I’m worried about Toni. (Ain’t no way Lance Bass is going anywhere.) I think it will be Ted McGinley. (Please be Ted McGinley. I want to keep Alec around awhile!)

    Oh, Ted. Better you than my bf Warren.

  4. 4 baxter Sep 24th, 2008 at 9:12 pm

    Holy Crap…that was the longest hour of my life I will NEVER get back!!

  5. 5 Sarah Sep 24th, 2008 at 9:18 pm

    What, the Jonas Brothers weren’t worth that whole hour, Bax??

    I’m glad my tv boyfriend is safe for another week. Oh, and his partner too, of course. ;)

    Hardy Har Har Har Sarah….and Hell NO!!! :)

    Things making me want to never watch DWTS again:

    1) The preteen squealing and squealing and squealing for Jesse McCartney and the Jonas Brothers.

    2) Cloris Leachman and her unfunny schtick. I think she has seriously lost her mind and that’s not funny to me. She and Corky don’t seem to like each other AT ALL and I don’t blame him.

    3) Ted McGinley leaving before Cloris or Kim.

    4) Making the one with the heart condition wait till last when I seriously doubt she was really B2.

    5) Too much guest stars I don’t like (Jonas Bros, Jesse McC), and not enough dancing pros.

    6) Giving us ten seconds of Ashly DelGrosso instead of a whole season, and focusing so much on Lacey Schwimmer like she’s the star of the show, when she has no business being one of the pros. As someone else said, she only learned quickstep and waltzing last year, so what’s she doing teaching it to someone else, and using teaching techniques like “a dog peeing” for a lovely, elegant ballroom dance like the quickstep???

    7) Bringing back Adam Carolla. I find him loathsome.

    The show has always been cheez whiz on a cracker, but they’re going way too far into unadulterated tackytown for my taste. I liked the actual dancing part, and seeing the pros who were so good at it. Not the Jerry Springer/George Hamilton schlockfest or Cloris Leachman grabbing Corky Ballas’s crotch or shaking her “coconuts” or, for that matter, Lacey Schwimmer shaking HER bizarrely tanned coconuts or talking about dog pee.

    Was anyone else surprised at how well Brooke danced? Or surprised that Kim didn’t dance better? Is anyone cuter than Julianne Hough? But I have to say, I still think Alec is so hot. Loved him in season one and he looks better all of thet time. I have never voted before for anyone from this show, but may have to cast a vote or two for Alec and Toni.

    MOST of the pros on this show have a background in Latin, not Ballroom. All one needs to do is take a look at their profiles on the official DWTS page to see that. In fact, the only pro who’s profile says that her style is Latin AND Ballroom is Kym Johnson.

    Just because you don’t agree with Lacey’s teaching methods doesn’t mean she’s not qualified to be on the show. Her stats include: 2006 - 1st Place: US National Youth Latin Championships and 2006 - Emerald Ball Youth Latin Champion, as well as all her Swing championships. She’s not just some kid off the street who was picked up because she’s a new, pretty face.

    I’m not even some huge Lacey fan, but I do think she’s just as qualified as anyone else to be on the show.

    The men should be required to be as naked as the females.

    Totally agree with the men should be as naked as the wenches.

    Man, I totally failed in my picks for the DWTS pool.

    Okay, that Jonas boy is soooo talented; dancing with the pros while playing an instrument. I mean, what if his dancing made him lose his concentration? An off-beat tamborine would have totally thrown the whole song off. Also, why do the Jonas tweens need 4 guitar players in their band? I’m not impressed!

    Yea for Rocco and Karina, Toni and Alec, Misty & Maks; I want to cheer on Lance, but I can’t because of Lacey (I totally agree with whomever said Lacey’s inexperience with this type of dancing would be the reason for Lance losing the competition; she’s just so “ghetto”).

    I disagree with the voters; Ted didn’t deserve to leave before Kim and Cloris. I thought he did pretty good last night.

    I don’t remember the season opener from last season taking this long. Damn, that was really shitty of them waiting till the end to let Toni know she was save, especially with the heart problem (is this show somehow affiliated with Idol?)

    P.S. David Blaine is an idiot; apparently he already is brain damaged, so he doesn’t have to really worry about that consequence. And besides, when they let him up to go to the bathroom (really, who goes to the bathroom every damn hour?) all the blood rushes back down and eleviates alot of the pressure on his brain, so what he’s doing isn’t all that dangerous to his brain. He’s still an idiot, though. :thumbdown_tb:

    Have a great weekend everyone!

    Peace out & Poke Smot!

    Quick questions; when is the next episode? Monday or Tuesday? 8PM or 9PM?

  14. 14 KrazeeK120 Sep 25th, 2008 at 1:02 am

    Well…..I missed the show tonight, but it doesn’t look like I missed much. I put 20 points on Jeff so I didn’t have to worry about the pool, but if I had had to pick tonight, I would have picked Ted, no joke.

  15. 15 bigepaz Sep 25th, 2008 at 2:06 am

    She’s not just some kid off the street who was picked up because she’s a new, pretty face.

    Hmmmm. Ok - whatever. I still would rather see Ashley or Anna in the competition rather that Lacey. But that’s just my little opinion. I am glad that we’re watching someone from SYTYCD graduate into a high profile dance job.

    I really thought Kim would leave tonight. I was SO wrong. Poor Ted, but I guess he has the smallest fanbase.

    The results show is usually difficult to get through, but watching the pros dance makes it a little easier.

    I still would rather see Ashley or Anna in the competition rather that Lacey.

    Oh, I so agree!! I think Lacey will bring Lance down just as I think Ted was hurt by being paired with a newcomer. I thought he actually showed potential Tuesday night. And Kim was probably saved from the chopping block by being paired with the popular Mark Ballas. Soooo, now that the show has lost ‘the patron saint of shark jumping,’ has DWTS jumped the shark? :ponder_tb:

    Another week of Cloris shenanigans - oh goody - not.

    Always enjoy the Pros dancing together. Nice to see Ashley again. Wow - that was some seriously complicated choreography they gave that Jonas kid - for him!

    Happy to have another week of Maks & Warren for my hotness & humor requirements.

    Another week of Cloris shenanigans - oh goody - not.

    No kidding. Already tired of Cloris. She was mildly funny…for about a day. So sad Ted left before she did.

    The results show is usually difficult to get through, but watching the pros dance makes it a little easier.

    ITA. Results show = painful to watch! Less “celebrity” guests and more pro dances would be a good thing. Otherwise, I’ll watch about the last 10 minutes and that’s it.
