DWTS 10 Week 6 Predictions
Another week has come and gone and with upcoming Monday’s show, comes new dances… in this case the fiesty Samba and the sultry Argentine Tango…
(Un)Fortunately, the Argentine Tango was introduced only two seasons ago as thus there is limited data available for analysis. But I will do with what I can…
Many thanks to Heidi for breaking down who is dancing what in tomorrow’s show…
Pamela Anderson/Damian Whitewood β Argentine Tango
– Season 8 (Holly Madison/Dmitry Chaplin, Week 4): 16/30
Prediction: 23/30

– Season 8 (w/ Gilles Marini, Week 4): 30/30
– Season 8 (Lawrence Taylor/Edyta Sliwinska, Week 4): 19/30

As for who I think will leave the competition on Tuesday? According to several calculations, I believe that bottom two would be Niecy and Pam with Niecy going home… though I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if Jake is swapped with Pamela.
Those are my predictions, what are yours? π
Saddened to see that you omitted both Tony and Melissa smokin’ Argentine Tango which she did with the bad ribs yet performed so beautifully. Most beautiful lifts I can recall. Gorgeous dance.
And Maks and Joanna’s terrific sultry and very sensual AT which unfortunately included her stumble. Without it, Bruno said he had his “10” paddles ready. Maks and Joanna were absolutely stunning as a pair.
Finally, you continue to predict Erin will not improve but that Jake will outperform her. POOHBAH. He was unfairly overscored last week with that messy chacha, and she would horridly underscored for their VERY FUN Jive! Color me naive, but I find it hard to believe the judges can keep up their grossly unfair treatment of Erin.
And Jake the Fake is surely the best candidate for farewells.
Joanie,
It won’t matter as long as Erin stays and Jake goes, right? I should have listened to my wife a long time ago when she said she wasn’t a big fan of Jake’s. Not that I really dislike Jake, but I just like Erin so much better. Erin and Maks are a great combination and great TV. So far Jake and Chelsie have done almost nothing that I remember week to week.
I actually am starting to like Jake a bit, for the simple fact that he’s so enthusiastic when he’s out on the floor. I still stand by my un-housebroken puppy analogy, but even though they have accidents – un-housebroken puppies are endearing nonetheless π I agree that Jake is not as skilled as Erin in terms of technique, but right now, for me, he’s got the better entertainment value in his performances – I’m still waiting for Erin to really let loose & enjoy herself, and the past few routines have seemed to mellow her a bit.
Well, not a fan of Jake, Joanie, but I disagree that Erin’s Jive was “horribly underscored”. Maks broke the Len Commandments, he gets dinged like everyone else does. I don’t find they are being overly harsh on Erin, or that they giving Jake that much of a break. In fact, since Len gave Nicole a *6* for a “very fun” (and much more difficult) quickstep which broke the rules, I would say Erin got off pretty easy.
Erin sucked on her jive, her hands are really akward to me, so i never connect with her dance 100%. Heidi is right Maks got away with it easily, we was how the judges were hash on Derek, i didn’t see them doing that with Maks!
Not that i’m a big fan of jake, but he’s improving tand he’s working his butt off that s for sure, on other side we see always Erin arguing with Maks, wich i find week after week quite boring!! (Peoooooooople move to something else)
I hate Erin Arms in any latin dance, i predict really bad arms today as well, i didn’t think her jive was that fun.
i agree with Courtney , i like his enthusiastic when heβs out on the floor too
Well weren’t the Erin dislikers wrong. Erin was ridiculous today and i think shes starting to really get “it”. She was the best dance of the night for me followed by Nicole, the others werent very memorable at all. I think Jake, Pam or Niecy will leave….hopefully Jake.
