Even Tom Bergeron is swayed, calling them incredible. Bruno rambles incomprehensibly for a bit, so you know he loved it. Carrie Ann praised their team work and individual performances, calling it a "magical mish mosh." Len doesn't have the vapors quite like the other two, saying it's easier to keep time in a marching dance than a Latin dance. He thought they did a fantastic job, but is just pointing out that they had the easier dance. Because he's crotchety. Scores: 10, 9, 10, for a total of 29. They wiped the floor with the other team.
Unsurprisingly, Brooke and Derek are at the top of the leaderboard, with a near-perfect 59/60. Surprisingly, Cody and Edyta are in the bottom with 42/60.
And now for the Results Show Pic Recap!
Seriously. Still not ok with this.
Useless is wearing a bizarre gift wrap dress.
Merry Christmas. It's Useless.
The audience goes crazy when she says that Lionel Ritchie's gonna be in the house tonight, which is cute. I wonder if they understand that he's not gonna be there talking about his daughter and instead he's gonna...you know...sing. I can't wait to see what he looks like. In my mind he looks like Pearl from 227.
The Judges get to choose what dance they want to see again and Tom to Len as the "king of constipated commentary". LOL.
I can poop just fine, thank you. I poop too well.
Len wants to see the Paso Doble again. Party because it was good, and partly because it's fun to watch Kym hang on for dear life as Warrnen stomps all over the stage like the Jolly Green giant while she tries to hang on to his waist and breath out of her mouth.
I'm gonna love you and squeeze you and...whiplash.
Suddenly, the group breaks into Fiddler on the Roof. Cheryl is Yenta.
Traditioooooooon! Tradition!
Fiddler never gets old. Next up, Len stars as Mame and Bruno plays Vera. Stay tuned!
Backstage, Useless asks the Looch why she's wearing such a short skirt when she's got frog legs.
And then Looch catches a fly and wipes wart juice all over Useless' gift wrap dress.
Lionel Ritchie's out next and guess what? He's sold over a hundred million albums! Holy crap. That Dancing on the Ceiling sure caught on with the kids, eh?
Congrats. Now please stop rubbing yourself.
He's all nasally and off key, and his song is "young and fresh", meaning it sounds like one loop from Garage Band played over and over with "yeah, girl" pasted repeatedly on top. Way to be just as craptacular as the times call for, Lionel! It's good to see the guy still kicking, but watching him rub himself in a pleather flight jacket like he's twenty is a little bit like seeing Madonna put her ankles behind her head in her old Like a Virgin S&M getup at fifty years old. You guys are rich now, k? Now please. Take a rest.
I'm not ready for your closeup, Mr. DeMille. Put that mug away already.
And then on a particularly painful note, the dancers lose their concentration and SPLAT!
!
Poor dead dancer! That can't help sales.
Backstage, Cheryl tries to convince Maurice that his back is just getting old and she hasn't gained any weight at all.
Then she takes a bite out of his cheek and the straps of her top bust.

Recap scores: 10, 10,10!
The screengrabs are brill.
Now Looch can get back to her real job @ AMC. During her solo dance, I thought she looked like the Madame Tussaud version of herself. Maybe it was and Tony had her feet connected to the tops of his shoes.

Didn't Kenny Mayne used to look more, well, normal??? What has happened to his face?? He looks like that picture of Madonna after she had dermabrasion and her cheeks and lips puffed up.
