Dancing With The Stars Season 5

Actually, I think they changed the voting procedure after Drew Lachey's win because we were able to determine the winner once Stacy was eliminated. I'm pretty sure the way they do it now is based on a percentage system. So they add up the total number of points awarded by the judges, and the couple's score is divided by the total to determine the percentage of points they won. Then, the percentage of viewer votes is added to the judges percentages and the couple with the highest score wins! Go Helio :)

This season's finale was NOT good. Mel let me down with her freestyle dance-- I was expecting so much from her considering her talent. I agree that they pulled a Stacy Keibler and figured her couple of lifts would 'wow' the crowd and lock in their win.

Marie should've left weeks ago (that third spot should've belonged to another star ( Sabrina, Cam, or Jenny). Personally I thought her freestyle was just more of the same stiff and limp movements she's been doing all season. I don't think her dances are all that entertaining either; perhaps because the media is ODing on Osmonds right now. Donny's on all entertainment shows critiquing the dancers-- except Marie. WTF does he know?!?!? He's not a professional dancer and he hasn't even been on the show. So, STFU, Donny! If Marie wins it's because of the Osmond media juggernaut they've launched since she debuted on DWTS. I think Donny and her are using this show to boost their careers. This show has really helped at least one star from eash season refresh their career. I just see Osmands everywhere for a long time-- which means I'll be tuning out as much as possible. She annoys the hell outta me! All her quips are like nails on a chalk board!

Rant over.

Helio came out strong with both his dances. Len was WAY too harsh on his jive. It wasn't that bad (Marie's dance had as much is not more technical probs, but they didn't bring that up, WTH). But his freestyle was MUCH better than anyone else's. I think Helio should win, because he's been the most consistent.

I still have yet to see a freestyle routine that could top Drew and Cheryl's season 2 show-stopping routine--that's my favorite dance of all time :D

I think the judges need to be way more consistent. I think at times there are so many technical problems that they don't even want to go there, but I think they need to. No need to bring up every flaw, since that would take 20 mins, but it needs to be addressed every time, imo.

I was rooting for Marie after Jennie got kicked of, until that awful doll dance. I'm sorry, but there is just no excusing that. Generally, I go for someone zero dance experience, but I'm going to have to settle for Helio now. He deserves to win, imo.

Everyone ready for the finale, I'm gonna LMAO if Marie wins, she already has 600-700 votes already from her family alone. I wonder what len's reaction will be if she won? :lol::lol::lol: Also the scores yesterday from the judges were weird they hated on mel's dance, yet she got all 9's? They did the same to helio and I think he got an 8 and then 2 9's.

You know, I would have voted for Marie if it had been anywhere near close, but it just wasn't. I bet even some of her other supporters felt that way. I agree the Osmond's have a lot of fans, but I also think most people care about fairness. It's hard to vote for someone who does a truly bad job even when you like them a lot. At least for me.

Wooooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

WTG, Helio!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

I breathed a sigh of relief when Marie was eliminated...the Osmond machine was stopped, lol. At least the two who should have been left were.

But I am thrilled with the outcome. I've liked Helio & Julianne since Week 1. :)

    • Yeah I saw it and it's still idiotic. I like the Pope, but it's not interrupt shows newsworthy
    • As someone who was watching OLTL at the time, Dano did excellent work, but the writing was weird. Dano even got Emmy nominated for what she did. However, it did feel that the writers did not know what to do with her, but to be fair, it did feel like a lot of that was that the character was a network mandate and the writers were making it up as they were going on. I didn't watch Dano's trek around all the soaps. That kind of thing would have worked better with an ABC performer not someone who had been off OLTL for decades. I can't imagine AW without Felicia Gallant. I really don't want to because she provided so much joy for me when there was so much disappointment on that show. The only time I thought her character didn't work was the John/Felicia storyline but it got Anna Holbrook an Emmy so I can't complain all that much. It's just another example of drama at the expense of character.
    • Bringing this over from the soccer/soaps ratings thread yesterday:  Errol said: "CBS put out a notice that it could preempt at a moment's notice as the Pope selection continues, dependent on how long it takes, of course." New pope just chosen, name to be announced soon. Yeah CBS-NewYork channel 2 is airing Pope coverage instead of Y&R right now.
    • @brisbydog - I like that you have a signature font, très chic Abe and Paulina's new apartment was the first thing I noticed.  I don't understand why people over a certain age in Salem automatically move into a condo? When it seems just as simple to make the set seem like a detached home.  But, I will give points to attention to detail of choosing colors that compliment the Black actors in the scene. Which then led to the second thing I noticed.  Why would EJ want Kayla's office, when his is 3xs the size?  Also, even if he buys the hospital, won't Kayla get to keep her office? Lastly, can we at least give Cat the agency to decide on her own with whom she wishes to date?  Do men actually need to negotiate on her behalf?  She's stunning.  My advice would be if Chad is friend-zoning her after a year together, move on to his richer brother.
    • OH!!! I love it. I can't believe I missed that. In one of the 2 fan events held the 2 years after the sorry end of our lovely show, both  Anna Stuart & Stephen Schnetzer attended & I got to talk to each of them. Obviously I was in heaven. Although at least I didn't do my shy star struck thing.
    • We probably won't get any of our CBS soaps today cause of the Pope stuff, cause you know they have to air it on regular network despite having 24/7 news channels

    • I still don't know when/how did Iris find out about Evan's connection to Janice?
    • lol Cass and Donna went on a bowling date!
    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to some of the nicest members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show.
