Dmitry Chaplin A “Diamond In The Rough” On Premiere Episode Of Bones (Video)
Did any of you get to see Dmitry Chaplin on the premiere episode of “Bones” last night? If so, how was he?
I haven’t seen the show since I’m not really a fan, but, Dmitry fans were lighting up twitter last night raving about him. If you missed it and you’d like to watch this episode with Dmitry, you can view it at TV Show 7.
Thanks to DmitryDreamTeam at facebook for the heads up.

Dmitry Chaplin Proves He Has Acting Chops on Bones
On January 14th, fans of both Bones and Dancing with the Stars were treated to a double dose of entertainment—DWTS pro Dmitry Chaplin guest starred on Fox’s popular drama, playing the partner of a professional ballroom dancer who was the victim in the lab’s latest case.
Dmitry’s character was named Kendrick, a sizzling hot star in the ballroom world, known together with his partner as being the best of the best. Though he was a suspect for a very short amount of time, it was quickly determined that he was not the killer…just an arrogant dancer trying to get on a TV show that would provide him instant fame and a big paycheck.
I thought Dmitry gave a great performance, which I honestly wasn’t expecting. His dancing was wonderful, of course, but the acting was what surprised me. Watching the show, I was impressed by his ability to show a range of emotions, and he was very believable in his portrayal of a hot, cocky ballroom dancer, which is so different from the gentle personality Dmitry displayed on DWTS. Maybe he modeled his character after Maks?
THANK YOU Violet!!!xxx








Of course we at his fan page @DMITRYDREAMTEAM loved his performance. Not only did he dance, he also choreographed all of the ballroom dance scenes. This was his first acting role and we thought he was amazing. Anyone who loves SYTYCD / DWTS would like this episode. Plus many of the extras were from the DWTSLV – Armen Way, Alexander (Sasha) Andreev, Ryan DiLello, Anya Garnis, and Anya Fuchs. Ashleigh DiLello, Chehon Wespi-Tschopp and Eliana Girard were also in the episode along with Mary Murphy and Tyce Diorio.
I thought he was pretty decent for the amount of lines he actually had. I was surprised, i thought they were going to take it easy on him, and have him just dance, say two words, and look pretty, but they really gave him the opportunity to flex his acting muscle a bit. I love bones & sytycd so this was a pretty fun episode for me
He was amazing!! Loved watching him on my screen!!!
I watched too – he was great, much better than I expected – the acting part was pretty good, and dancing, of course, great. It was fun to see other SYTYCD dancers – I have not seen them in a while. Although Cheon and Eliana are not ballroom dancers – why did they cast them, not sure. It was very clear they did not dance as well as actual ballroom dancers.
I am not really complaining though – I loved it all.
I haven’t had a chance to see it yet, but plan to watch it on Fox.com, where you don’t have to download anything. I’m sure Dmitry is awesome and I’m excited they cast Chehon considering he was the champion and a great dancer and beautiful spirit, and my favorite on SYTYCD. It’s great to see the reviews about Dmitry’s performance. I feel this will be his year and I can’t wait to see who he’s partnered with this season on DWTS.
I thought Dmitry was great on the show! Vogue, you mentioned something a while back about a guest post or something, from the people who watch, Bones, and I didn’t know if you still wanted something like that? I did write up a mini-review, only about 200 words, but I understand if you guys don’t need it, since you already did this post.
Awesome. You can send it to Vogue@pureDWTS.com and I’ll add it to the above post. THANKS!
Er, I will be surprised if Dmitry is ever back on DWTS. Being on this show certainly isn’t indicative that he will be, since it was on Fox.
