At 8:30 they have to be at the studio for breakfast and they dance from 9am up until 5pm. After a full day of rehearsals they then have to go to vocal training and fittings. Then all the groups get together at 8pm and learn the elimination song. Bradley calls it his least favorite part of the week, but it just makes me wonder - how are they not better at this point? Is that unfair of me to ask (as crunch 'n munch lives up to its name in my mouth and I type this in bed)?
"Whatever you say HayHor, you couldn't shriek better than I can!"
Lachey abruptly takes us away from the "look at how hard they work!" segment to tell us who is losing a team member this week. As expected, Team Bruno wins this week and Bruno just acts like he got away scott free on a murder charge. If I were on his Team I'd be pissed that he had such little faith, but then again, Bruno is a huge drama queen and everyone knows that.
"Oh Thanka Youa America!"
Carrie Ann is having a nervous breakdown or is just really good at crocodile tears. No, this is a legit cry - has to be because she keeps doing ugly face and you know she's not intending to do that. Carrie Ann picks Qis first because when she asked what she should do about eliminating someone, he offered himself up. The camera then pans over to Alyssa before Carrie Ann's next pick and she must be thinking that she's gone because the mascara rivers are flowing down her face. It's rough - she looks like one of those people you see on the street who have been crying and you're dying to know why but can't ask them because it's mean.
But we all know why she's crying...reality show fame withdrawal.
Carrie Ann's next pick is inexplicably Bradley for all of his dancing abilites. Does anyone else find this pick as off as I do? I mean if you've watched the show and tried to hear the guy sing, it hurts. Literally, it hurts ears. He's in shock and should be. Carrie Ann's next pick is Mariel who obviously has the best voice on the girl's side. After that pick, her next she says is always rehearsing and that's why she's staying. It's Elizabeth, and Alyssa and Chris are in the final two. As the show cuts to commercial, they look like a sad young couple who just found out they're pregnant.
"You sure I'm the daddy? I remember using one of Qis' connies."
We come to the final singing battle between Alyssa and Chris, and for the first time we have two people who could be considered good singers in the final elimination. They sing "I Can Be You Hero Baby" by that cabeza de bicho (dickhead), Enrique Iglesias. Alyssa actually does a better job singing the song than Chris, but as predicted, Carrie Ann gives her the axe. Carrie Ann ends up being more devastated about it than Alyssa, who by the end of things looks like she just wants to hit a bitch.
Fierce.
Just wanted to say that one of you fantastic commenters out there wrote last week that I made nary a mention of Charity's on camera charge during a sad breakdown. I'm not one to kick people while they're down, like you cold bastards, but in this instance, I kind of laughed. Here's a little clip of Charity self-destructing as we part ways before the final episode and next week's big reveal of who is going to be on the next Dancing with the Stars!
Let's hope she's not under consideration.

Yo HayHor! Haven't even finished reading the recap yet but I have to mention that Zach is the ex-fiancé of Dancing With The Stars very own Julianne Hough. If they never got even a LITTLE jiggy with it, well, no wonder he is the EX-fiancé.

"As long as you don't say it three times in front of a mirror we're cool. Otherwise, he'll come back and eat you."
OMG, love ya HH!!!
I should not have been surprised that Carrie Ann kept Bradley because she had such nips for his dancing ability, but thank God next week is the finale.

WHAT?
Was this at reality blurred or something? Did Nads cover this? How did I miss this? I need some sources, wintersux. I was totally unaware of this and now feel like a derelict recapper.

I don't remember for sure where I read it. I think it might have been at TVGuide.com. This is the guy she broke up with around the time that she was partnered with Apolo. It's been a while since I read it. Unless I just hallucinated the whole dang thing.

I wikipedia'd it and it's true. I've dated a couple of jewish girls and it's always dicey since I'm not an MOT (member of the tribe). I see now, however, that the mormons are even more serious about that kind of stuff.
Thanks for the scoop, wintersux. I'll use this info to pick on Zack next week and raise some (as of now undeveloped) conspiracy theories.

You are very welcome, HayHor. Consider it my Valentine's Day present to you. :) Just don't ask me why I didn't mention it earlier...I dunno. I guess the "afraid of sex" principal is what reminded me.

Sorry, I meant principle, not principal.

Funny as always HayHor. Great seeing the Charity breakdown clip again, thanks.
BTW, its true that Zack was Julian's fiancee and that he is Mormon, but so is she so they both would likely shun genitals until marriage. Hard to believe though given the way she moves that fab bod of hers.
I'm so glad that next week is the finale although I still don't understand how this whole deal works. If our vote next week is going to decide the winner it can't be based on the number of people left on each team because Carrie Ann would either have it won already or it would be a tie. So to determine the winner they really only needed us to vote one dang time and there was no reason to get rid of any of the contestants beforehand. Sheesh, I hate that they didn't think this show out any better than they did.
