Derek and Joanna's certainly stood out more, but I thought Aaron's enthusiasm was charming and he seems to do steps well. What am I missing?

Melissa foot work and posture were not good at all! i was really shoked by their scoring! and though Mya who got 2 tens! i'm sorry but i didn't like the choreography it wasn't a lambada 100%!! and Dmitry he got chill a lil bit!! Remember that sometimes the best way to the top is by bringing the most simple stuff!! And another thing the producers has to reconsider putting on the show people who already have dance background! i mean it takes away all the fun coz u know from the start that they're gonna be great, but the real entertaienement is watching the progression and evolution of the couple!!! so honestly i'm not intersted by seeing mya, however i like watchin joanna loui vitoe kelly... over all, once the show has ended i could only remember derek and joanna's lamabada! hope they stick to the final they really deserve it!! I HOPE DEREK KEEPS WAWING THE JUDEGES WITH HIS CHOREOGRAPHIES COZ HE ROCKS!! Derek and Joanna were hands down the best couple of the night! i totally agree with Heidi they were robed!

I literally paused my TV for a little while when Derek took his shirt off. Let's just say this episode will not be leaving my DVR for a while. ;) I shall be back in the morning with a more detailed description of how I felt about tonight. (It was mostly positive!)

Not in this universe. Her feet were a mess. Granted, she was much better than she has been, but man - give her a 10 and not Joanna? Joanna wuz robbed. Or, if you prefer, Melissa was propped up. Makes me wonder if she's not getting the votes. Courtney is right - Mya was connecting more tonight and Dmitry was the problem. Also agree with Tabitha that her ringer status annoys, but no more than Donny's does. Saw improvement in Mark D, but still not tremendous. I also liked Natalie better tonight, but she's got NO room to complain about getting the Bolero - Joanna has had FOUR similar latin dances in a row and she's the only one that's had this issue. Makes her and Derek look one-dimensional and they have no say in the matter. Are there any latin dances left? This is good and bad - she got some of the harder dances out of the way, but now when the going gets tough, she could be stuck with some tamer dances. Hope like hell Derek gets a paso or a tango for next week.

I was hoping that Lacey's two-step would be better...I mean her dad did invent the regular two-step! I was so proud of Melissa (My neighbors probably think I'm crazy since I yelled a little when she got her 10!) Ugh Mya’s such a ringer.

Mya dance was great, Dmitry were more like her pole on this dance, i don't even remenber him in the dance at all, but how can i ignore the ringer situacion when she said that she helped Dmitry in the choreography.
