Testimonials

Tom thinks they've made a comeback - what about the judges? Bruno thinks Brooke is back as well! He feels so strongly about it he stands to give his comments because he is five years old and he's been waiting for the teacher to call on him for like, forever. Carrie Ann is still being a total bitch about the lifts, but thought they actually worked in the context of the dance. She also goes on about Brooke's "fall from grace" and I don't think missing one dance is quite a fall from grace. That's more appropriate for when you get your Miss America crown stripped because of some nudie photos, right Vanessa Williams? Len tells her not to worry what the other dancers are doing because when she sticks to what she knows, like just now, she's great. Scores for Brooke and Derek: 9, 10, 9, for a total of 28.

When you people just let it go?

Next up: Cody and Julianne performing the Salsa. He's still a total spazz. I mean, he's 18 - if his biggest problem in his life is not winning "Dancing with the Stars" because he dances like a spazzy white guy, he's living a charmed life. No pity from me.

Carrie Ann thought it was fun to watch, but she wanted better musicality from Cody. She loves his efferevescence, but wanted better technique. Len is clearly pumping up the compliments because he was supposed to have coached Cody into hip rolls, but I didn't see 'em. Bruno thought Cody performed like a "cheeky devil" and agrees with the other judges on Cody's fun versus technique ratio. Scores for Cody: 8, 8, 8, for a total of 24 and a boring night total of 46.

Cute shirt though. I hope wardrobe lets you keep it.

And now a couple pros come in to show us what the Jitterbug is supposed to look like. Basically, way faster than any of our "stars" will be dancing. Um, that was frucken awesome.

Every screengrab I got was a blur. Nice!

And now Warren has to follow those pros. He works his football dance into the intro for Len, clearly. Julianne is dressed as a roulette wheel, I believe? The dance is cute, but not nearly as fast as the pros. But I think Warren's feet have the snap Len is looking for.

Ass kisser.

Len thought Warren gave the audience exactly what they were looking for. He likes that they come out full-on and sell it every time. Bruno said he hasn't seen such a massive impact since Starship Troopers. Even if I had every seen that movie, I wouldn't admit it on national TV! Except in like, an ironic way. Bruno also criticizes Warren's feet. Carrie Ann liked it, saying he brought his A-game. Scores for Warren: 9, 8, 8, for a total of 25, and a night total of 49.

The last routine of the night belongs to Lance and Lacey, doing the Jitterbug. Ooo Lance even does some acrobatics. I would make some off-color comments about Lance dressed as a seaman, but he said it was an homage to his grandfather, so I won't. LOL, Lance's shoe comes off. I hope Len goes easy on them since they didn't mean to be barefoot. The routine is cute if a little crazed. But apparently, judging by the pros' standard, that's to be expected.

This show needs to get a crafts services table. Poor guy's starving.

Bruno thought the performance was brilliant. He thought it had well-referenced elements of On the Town and he totes loved it. Who doesn't love a little Gene Kelly referencing? Carrie Ann called it "magic on the dance floor." And Len salutes the pair for dancing two fabulous dances that night. Scores for Lance: 10, 9, 10, for a total of 29 and that makes three 10's for Lance and Lacey tonight. They are understandably stoked.

And that's it for the performance show. Y'know. Standard riduclousness!

And now it's time for the results!!

So my friend Allison wants to know why TVgasm hates Useless Samantha so much.

That's why.

OMG Aretha Franklin!!!!! She ate all of her money a few years back, which is good for us cuz it forced her to get her ass out the house and give us a show! So, it's just Chain of Fools. At least she didn't try to make it "young and hip" like Lionel Richie did with "Dancing on the Ceiling." Wait. I'm writing stuff. I'm supposed to be doing a picture recap. I've gone and put Aretha in the same sentence as Lionel. My bad!

Squeeze, girl! When you're done you'll be able to afford a Whopper.
