All of the dancers have really been doing incredible work. It's getting harder and harder to tell who the professionals are and who the "students" are. It's incredible.
Last night, for the first time, I was awed by Stacy's performance. She was incredible. Every 10 she received was well deserved, in my opinion. It was fun, it was fast and she looked great. But how intimidating would it be to have to follow someone who got a perfect score? And she went first! Wow!
Tia Carrere had the lowest score from the judges - it was a score of 22. Last season, that was the average score of all the contestants. On an especially good night, the top score might be 25 or 26 so that shows the level of work this season's dancers are putting into it (well to me anyway). And that's not to take away from Tia's performance. Although it wasn't my favorite performance, she did a good job and I enjoyed her dance last night.
Anyway, tonight was elimination night. Tia is one of only four of the contestants I knew who was when this competition started. And I like Tia. As such, she's had my support from the beginning. I'm at a point where I don't want anyone to be voted off because I really like everyone. More so, I really don't want those I knew (and liked) going in being voted off. But, having been in the bottom two a couple of times now, and having the overall lowest score from the judges last night, I knew in my heart that Tia had in all likelihood danced her last dance last night.
I gave her all of my telephone votes (and one of my online votes) but alas, she was voted off anyway tonight. When her name was announced as the contestant being voted off and she did her final "interview", she was so gracious and classy. I really hate to see her go.
Maybe when they do that "surprise" bring back of Giselle, they can bring back Tia too.

I was afraid Tia was going. I really liked her, too.
I had Couples Bunco last night and forgot to program my DVR to see who got eliminated. I knew I could count on you, though, L, to keep me informed!
LOL Happy to do my part. :)
Who knows what I'll blog about when this is all over.
As for couples bunco...I've been in a ladies bunco group for several years now but I've heard about couples bunco. I've heard that the men are incredibly competitive at it and the women sit back and laugh at them. Do you find it's that way?
LOL, OMG, yes. My husband was out for blood last night. He totally cracked me up. What's really funny is how often the men repeat back the directions. What are we rolling for now? Is it good to roll a bunco? etc.... It's a hoot!
Maria, I have to confess, the ladies in my group (myself included) are always asking "what are we rolling now?" because we can't remember from game to game. LOL
We're not that competitive. It's just a night out with the girls. Except for one lady. OMG she is so frigging competitive! When it's at her house, she tries to stop the game early if she's up for a prize. Once, she was so pissed off because she tried to stop the game early (she had last bunco going for her) and when the group wouldn't let her and she lost the prize, she threw a fit. I really like everyone else in the group but her, I could do without.
