Dancing with the Stars Season 15 – Week 6 Predictions
Week 5 no eliminations… while as with Week 6 we were suppose to have a double elimination but it would appear that TPTB have scraped that idea and we will see a single elimination this week.
That being said… thanks to Heidi for posting up the “Who is Dancing What” post for the week… what does the data say about how the couples will be scored this week? Better yet, will there be any change / shake up in the standings from last week to this week?
Before going on let’s look at how the scores could stack up if Week 6 did NOT have Week 5 added on to it.
– Since we are in Week 6, the calculations above is strictly based off of scores from Weeks 4 through 7 in a traditional 10-week season. Just to keep the scoring semi-reasonable.
– Although Apolo Anton Ohno has a score from his original season for the Viennese Waltz… in actuality he has done the Waltz in his season and did not dance to the Viennese Waltz.
– Does anyone else find it odd that Derek – until this season – has never done a Cha-Cha between Weeks 4 through 7?
Now let’s look at how the scoring went down in Week 5 (including the Team Dances).
Whileas when compared to the predicted calculated scores… there are a lot of discrepancies. Hmm.
As always keep the above scores with a grain of salt and let’s enjoy tonight’s show for Country Week! (Does anyone find it odd that they are not doing the cliche Halloween week? I am a little disappointed in TPTB here.)
The hot mess of a team dance seems to have normalized the scores a little, but I’m rooting for Kelly Monaco. She’s so little and graceful and she’s come so far from Season 1. Also, Emmitt Smith really should be at the bottom with Kirstie. It’s about time for both of them. Giles is an annoying whiner, but he’s also a pretty good dancer. It’s hard not to see him in the semi-finals, but it will be disappointing if he wins. I’m always happy to see Derek win and his partners tend to deserve it, but there are several worthies in this bunch so I’m prepared to just enjoy the show this year. Especially now that Bristol is gone.
I’ll take Kirstie and Emmitt over Gilles anyday.
In Louis GMA blog he mentions that next week there will be no show on Tuesday because of the elections and because of that on Monday night someone is leaving based solely on the judges scores that week. Have any of you heard from this? It sounds super unfair to me…. Especially with the extremely crazy and inconsistent judging this season…
…but the fix seems to be in to politely throw Kirstie under the proverbial bus next. Gilles is way pimped and protected, as are Emmitt and Kelly. They can’t have Sabrina finish worse than her last outting, so she’s got some self life remaining. Shawn’s a shoe-in for the finals and I expect Apolo to hang in till at least the semis too. Melissa’s gotten some love & protection, but I think their usefulness for her may be running short…unless she somehow undergoes a sex change and does some towel-clad raunching pronto!
Not particularly odd, Marianya, since I’ve dubbed Derek the king of the first week cha cha. 🙂
WHAT.?? 9, 9, 9.5….oh plz
What song did Sabrina and Louise dance to?! It was beautiful!
@Ness, it was “Wanted” by Hunter Hayes. One of my very favorites 🙂
Ok I need to rewatch Apolo’s dance, too many tears to see it properly. I was done as soon as I recognized the song. If you haven’t (and are willing to risk a tear-fest) find the offical video…
Found it
I really doubt the judging is rigged. I think Kelly will go home tomorrow since they gave Kirstie the extra 2 points and she already had a one point lead. I pegged Shawn as a shoo-in for the final but her knee injury could keep her from it, though her knee looked fine today. Likewise, even though Melissa continues to dance well I think her neck injury will keep her out of the finals.
I really like Gilles. I don’t think he’s been a whiner or anything else. I’m sure the ridiculous outfit at the team practice was a put on by the show; Gilles would never wear something like that on his own. I expect Gilles will make the finals. Sabrina is looking more and more like she will be in the finals too, along with Apolo if I had to guess. Emmitt has a great fanbase so he’s a longshot for the finals too.
Oh,and Kelly goes home tomorrow, but Kirstie goes home next week. So I Foretell.
Kirsty MUST have a HUGE fan group. No talent required…just fans, so very very sad.
As I mentioned last year…the judges must go…the sooner, the better.
I just get so irritated with Len’s inconsistent scoring. EVERYONE should be held to the SAME standard…Shawn should be scored the SAME as the rest of the remaining all stars, and not held to a higher standard.
Too bad that Rob Kadashian didn’t accept, then we would have witnessed Kirsty # 1 and Kadashian # 2…no, the other way around. ( The kadashians have more fans). Perhaps he did grow up “to be a man” as he was told on the show and saw how the others can dance!!!
Kirsty still thinks she can win !!!! ( which is possible since you don’t have to be a dancer any more)
I took another look at Kirsty’s performance to make sure that I wasn’t mistaken and it was PAINFUL, but she must attract a lot of viewers which is all the network cares about now.
Still wish the professional dancers will start their own show where celebrities with dancing talant can be enjoyed.
I still love Kelly but I have to say, I thought pretty damn funny when Louis told Kelly & Val to get a room.
