DWTS S26: All-Athletes Edition! (i.e. the DWTS thread for NOT yammering about what happened 24 years ago)

[Sasha'sSpins]

Mirai looks GORGEOUS in that dress!!
She and Alan are next up - GO MIRAI AND ALAN!!

 

[floridaice]

Wow, that was very nice!

 

[meggonzo]

Wow, Mirai was great!

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

Okay, not being biased because I love her but I LOVED Mirai's facial expression from the first notes! And imo she is KILLING it with Alan!!

OK, this was a WOW!!

 

[BittyBug]

Wow, Mirai was really good!

 

[BaileyCatts]

With this only being a 4 week season, that deserves 9s right now.

 

[Twilight1]

Mirai- thank you for saving the season.

 

[nimi]

YAY MIRAI!!! They were so fun to watch!

 

[screech]

The most personality I've ever seen from her in a performance. Biggest advice I'd give is for her to stop leaning her upper body forward so much.

 

[Yazmeen]

Wonderful from Mirai!!! So happy for her!

 

[meggonzo]

She does look like her, would need to hear her say "haircutter" to be sure!

It was the high neck, backless dress!

 

[meggonzo]

Carrie Ann WTF with that 7 ?!

 

[Firedancer]

That was awesome! Yay Mirai!

7? WTF Carrie Anne!?!?

 

[BaileyCatts]

Oh bullshyte on the 7 CarrieAnn!!! Seriously, an 8 would do for a normal 10 week season, that deserved 9s based on the shorter season.

 

[Yazmeen]

Carrie Ann WTF with that 7 ?!

Agree!!!

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

A 7 and two 8's - the judges REALLY liked Mirai! A few small criticisms but hey - they only have 4 weeks (if they make it that far) but I imo, Mirai and Alan were by far the BEST dancers so far - and they rightly have the highest score so far! Oh I hope Mirai gets the votes to move on!!

 

[Twilight1]

Straight 8's minimum imho. Carrie Ann needs to drink the skater kool aid again!!

 

[BaileyCatts]

Oh I believe CarrieAnn has an agenda. I'll hold my thoughts to see if it comes true.

 

[rfisher]

I spit out my tea at the head bobbing comment. I won't discuss the book I'm currently reading, but there's head bobbing and OMG, but Mirai was bobbing.

 

[mrr50]

Mirai has saved this show.

 

[Fridge_Break]

I can understand Carrie Ann being more critical of the finer details on the better dancers during a regular 10-week season (a la Simone Biles), but with this being only 4 weeks, it's really unnecessary.

 

[annie720]

Oh I believe CarrieAnn has an agenda. I'll hold my thoughts to see if it comes true.

No judge has an agenda. They only do the producers' bidding.

 

[floridaice]

I'm glad Arike is on here, but she beat my team in the NCAA final, not sure I can root for her

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

Arike is a little hunchy but overall very nice dance with Gleb!

 

[BaileyCatts]

So once I did "Save My Votes", that means they are 'locked in', right??

 

[BaileyCatts]

Nice lie Tom.

You can change them up until they close the voting.

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

Sorry but that 7 from Carrie Ann tying Arike with Mirai on her scorecard is just no.

 

[BaileyCatts]

You can change them up until they close the voting.

I'm not changing them, that's why I don't get why he keeps saying "lock in your votes". So he just means "IF" you want to change them?

Once you save them, they are locked in, unless you change them. Then you resave them
