Dancing With The Stars, S 14, Week 6 Motown Week

[soxxy]

The bad part about this week is my husband knows all the words to the songs. It's kind of a constant drone.

Can he sing well??

note the word 'drone'. it's a clue

Well, I'm sure he's happy hearing these old tunes.

[screech]

I'm not a fan of Donald's dancing, but I did have to smile at him tonight, loved that he was singing along to the song.

And lol at Maks. Nobody could accuse of him having false modesty - he's a cocky ass, but I do respect and admire that he doesn't pretend to be anyone other than who he is. And also love him calling out the producers (in a nice way) for focusing so much on him with the frustration and not other pros, and Melissa for saying most of their time is not what's shown on TV.

[soxxy]

Perfect rhythm for a cha cha, Jaleel's movement was good, I wish it had been more "traditional."

Scores:

10 9 10

[screech]

Anyone else lol at Kym basically telling Jaleel to change his personality?

And the first kind of hint (from Brooke nonetheless!) about the discord between Jaleel and Kym.

[soxxy]

Cheryl did most of the work in William's Rhumba. He's hot, but I'm not enthusiastic about his dance.

Scores:

9 8 10

the 9 and 10 are high

[mrr50]

I didn't think william did much

[soxxy]

Oh, no, Gladys out first.

Katherine wins, and she looked best to me. I did not like William's knee slides.

[Garden Kitty]

Katherine going for the symbolic chartreuse, just like Peggy Flemming.

[mrr50]

I though jaleel and william should have been gone sooner

[screech]

Why the hell did they keep William in that long? He was sliding around and posing the whole time. Katherine is in a class of her own in this competition.

And I though Gladys was out a bit soon - she was doing pretty well before they got rid of her, and I was surprised that Maria and Derek were out so soon, but Kudos for Melissa and Mr. Modesty for staying in so long.

[Garden Kitty]

I was surprised Derek and Maria were out so soon, but I didn't think it was unfair. She really looked lost during the marathon, but I didn't expect them to actually be chosen.

Dancing in the streets was on AI, the Voice, and DWTS all in the same week.

Very funny! Could be worse though. Every so often my husband gets these spells where he gets into Hebridean psalm singing. I know its his heritage (Scot) but it really is hard to stomach after a bit. It's drone on steroids!
Luckily, DWTS won't be doing that for a theme week. Kind of funny to think of them trying to dance to that though!
Solution? Honey, we need a quart of milk; could you go please? Now?

[skatesindreams]

I don't want Gladys to leave; but, I don't know if her fanbase will be enough to keep her in.

And I though Gladys was out a bit soon - she was doing pretty well before they got rid of her,

I wouldn't be surprised if Tristan had a signal for Len to get them off the floor in one of the earlier eliminations. Tristan is treating her with absolute class. No one wants to see her suffer.

So....what did everyone think of the singing performances?

[Rob]

I think Martha Reeves needed a lot of back up help.

[skaternum]

So....what did everyone think of the singing performances?

Considering how old The Temps and Martha are, I thought they did a decent job. I don't expect anyone to sound as good as they did 40 years ago. I thought the Temps were the best. I really wanted to hear Gladys sing, though.
