Two are leaving tomorrow, and they don't want one to be Emmitt, I guess. That's why I voted for Kelly and Melissa. I feel like their fan base isn't as big.

I LOVED Shawn's trio dance. And for them to complain that it wasn't a Samba is just silly---once you have one girl and two guys, right then it's not a Samba! They DID have steps and style of a samba in there, but the choreography and presentation was hugely entertaining and well done. I hope she stays!!

I missed most of the show. What did they say about the trio dance challenge? I know that Len is the one who tries to keep the dancing more pure "ballroom". Is there a category of competitive ballroom with three dancers? If not, as somone said, how could it be pure?

I have to agree with those who did not like Shawn, Derek, and Mark's "samba" ... it just wasn't. (I'm getting tired of gymnastics used for the "wow" factor in Shawn's dances.)

I voted for Melissa and Gilles.

So...could anyone else not tell the difference between Apolo and the professional in their trio? I had a hard time distinguishing....

I have always thought that Derek was a clearly outstanding choreographer. And dancer. Shawn dances extremely well - or I should say has great timing and is full of tricks. I DO agree that I feel they can lean towards entertainment/tricks MORE than the actual dance and its traditional steps/form. And I'm probably in the minority with this....I LIKE Shawn, but I think that team is a little full of themselves. I just prefer a little more modesty in success. I think she has a good chance of winning.

Makes me nervous with 2 going tonight (it's just a tv show, it's just a tv show, I tell myself...) It will be a crime if Kirstie stays and someone else goes. I also personally think Emmitt is not to the level of the others.

LOVED Shawn's trio jungle dance...but I could have told you that Len was going to HATE it. I voted all my votes for Shawn to keep her in. Melissa is really coming on, though. I figured that she wouldn't have the fan base to keep her in the competition this far into it, but I was wrong. I think she's getting new fans as the competition goes on.

Apolo definitely gets underscored compared to Emmit...

I love Kirstie, but it is past time for her to go...

I think they overscored Apolo a bit, probably because they saw the replay of last week's show and realize they underscored him then. Agree that I couldn't tell him and the other guy apart. He did a great job.

And for the record, I want Kelly Monaco's body. She looked so good last night.

Wow, that second elim was a surprise! Thankful that Apolo is still there but didn't expect Giles to go.

Irritated that Emmitt is still in there.

Even though I love Gilles, he had kind of gotten smug or something the past couple of weeks. Just too competitive or something. I'm sad he's gone. Funny that lovebirds Max and Peta get kicked off the same week.

I was glad Apollo did not go but really bummed that Gilles went. He is much better than Emmit in my opinion. Relieved that Kirstie finally went - as i think is she!

Kelly worries me. She is getting way too thin. I was kind of shocked at the sight of her shoulders and arms.

Now that Gilles is gone I am leaning toward Apollo and Shawn to win.

Didn't watch the results show Tuesday night but it sure seems coincidental that Maks's girlfriend Peta was also voted off in the same week.

Emmit must have some incredible fan base. Giles was better than he was every week...but I'm not a big Giles fan, either.

A bit funny: we have an ex Dallas Cowboys cheerleader and an ex Dallas Cowboys running back both going into the semi-finals.

I am surprised Gilles is gone ...
