DWTS Season 18, Week 9 – Let’s Recap Tonight’s Show (Spoilers)
Once again, due to heavy traffic, we have to institute a few ground rules for tonight show. Most of these are good rules ALL OF THE TIME, and are basic netiquette.
- DO NOT hit refresh every few seconds – in fact, do not hit refresh every five minutes! Read, comment if you like, then walk away from the computer for five to ten minutes. I know this is hard, but it will prevent others from losing their minds trying to read and/or update the site.
- DO NOT use the comment section like it’s twitter – it’s not twitter. Make an actual comment with context of who you’re talking about, who you’re talking to (if it applies), etc. Context, and more than one line. If you break this rule more than one time, I start deleting. If you do it a couple times, you’ll find yourself on moderation. Perhaps for life. 🙂 Keep in mind that if you can’t follow this rule, I can make you follow it.
- Try very hard to keep the ugly to a minimum. Think before you post. If you’ve been called out previously on this blog for your behavior, this will be extra important because there’s only so much I will tolerate. I’m not talking about differing opinions, I’m talking about nasty. If I get the sense that you are purposely trolling (look it up if you’re not sure), I will just block you. No warning other than this one.
Also, we’ve turned on the Comment Moderation feature for the entire site. That way, in the event of an unexpected elimination, we can week out any trouble makers that much quicker. 😉
Tonight’s drinking game?? One shot for every ass kiss. 🙂 Happy drinking.
Candace – really good dance and Bruno is exactly right. I might not have noticed any mistakes if it hadn’t shown so clearly on her face.
And she’s safe. Okay, that’s a tad scary, although she could be in the bottom two and they want to scare the hell out of Charlie, Meryl (and Amy) fans. Since Amy is going third, and Charlie is next…one of them will be in jeopardy.
ETA 1: Charlie and Amy are in jeopardy – why are you people freaking out already?? The producers of this show are the most manipulative people on the planet. Be worried when James is called safe.
Great dance from Charlie…I’ll be waiting for people to bitch about his dropped hanky. Oh. Wait. 🙂
ETA 2: Holy crap…again, mesmerized by Amy and Derek! Great quickstep!! Should be a 39, if not…well, she’ll get more votes. And if she for some crazy reason goes home?? She has Oprah and Kenny Ortega in her corner. 🙂
ETA 3: Meryl in jeopardy and James safe. I’m so shocked…only not really. 🙂 Who wants to bet me that the last two standing are Charlie and Meryl?? Unless Amy is truly at the bottom, the producers won’t be able to resist.
I missed James dance because I was policing this site. People, we ain’t twitter. Cool your jets.
ETA 4: And here comes the “winner” narrative for Meryl and Maks. Massive struggle to get the dance.
ETA 5: Those were some ugly ass shoes Meryl was wearing. Period shoes I guess??
Ooo…blow to the Meryl Maks shippers when Meryl puts Charlie ahead of Maks on the partnership scale. 😀
ETA 6: Very nice Macy’s Stars of Dance. It just occurred to me that the reason Derek is creative director (besides being the best person for the job and they want him to get Emmys cuz it’s good for the show) is partly because they never expected Amy to last this long and they need Derek on the show.
ETA 7: Is Candace peaking at the right time or what?? Great choreo from Mark – loved it. 🙂 They are kinda stacking it so she’s more certain to get 4th place though.
ETA 8: Charlie was a tad flat on that. I still love him though and will give him all my votes if Amy goes home.
Jaysus – Derek FINALLY gets his due from the judges on the choreo this season. That was fantastic. Really fantastic. If Amy goes home tonight, she will still have some of the most memorable dances of the season. Kenny Ortega…you da man. 🙂
ETA 9: WARNING…that rumba wasn’t that good, but the judges are raving. Danger Will Robinson…Danger Will Robinson. Long time viewers of this show will know what this means….
ETA 10: Hehehehe…cue the walking choreo. Anyone count?? 😀
Meryl is such a pretty girl, why does Maks keep dressing her in gawdawful outfits??
Another perfect score for Meryl and Maks. So shocked. LOL – not really. 🙂 Congrats to Maks though – he finally vocalized something in a way that I think he actually meant instead of insulting half the population. 🙂
Amy is called safe first – told you guys an hour ago when the three Olympians were in jeopardy that Meryl and Charlie would be the last two standing. Someday you will listen to me. 🙂
Very sad that we’ve lost Charlie – Would have loved to see a freestyle from Sharna. I think she could rival Derek – while Maks…won’t. GREAT JOB CHARLIE AND SHARNA!!
