I watched Dancing with the Stars last night and then watched the dances again earlier today.
Last night the stars recalled their most memorable years and then danced to them, telling the story of that year and what it meant to them.
I'm just going to go on record as saying, no one should be sent home on most memorable year night - period. These people pour their hearts out with their stories and then again on the dance floor, and then one couple is sent home. It's heartbreaking to see that. They should let the votes carry over to the next week and send TWO couples home then. But not on most memorable year night. It's just wrong.
SPOILER ALERT!!! I'm going to talk about who went home so if you haven't watched and don't want to know, stop reading now! SPOILER ALERT!!!
The last three couples standing were Mira Sorvino, Alyson Hannigan and Harry (whose last name I don't know). They were also the three bottom scorers of the night with Harry at the bottom, Alyson three points higher and Mira one point higher than Alyson.
I think I mentioned last week that I vote for Mira and Alyson and I did again last night. (I also vote for Barry but he had a great dance and scored a 24 last night, which was two points higher than Mira.)
Something I've noticed over the years though, is that a man who can't dance can go further in the competition than he deserves because women do most of the voting and they'll vote for a cute male who can't dance before they vote for a woman who can dance. And I think they did that last night because Harry wasn't the one who went home, even though he deserved to, based on the scores the judges gave him.
Mira was the one who went home last night. The part that was hard for me was that her memorable year was the year her daughter was born - and her daughter joined her in the dance! The judges talked about the humor in the dance (which I didn't pick up on - even the second time I watched it) and said how good and sweet it was, etc. She got her best score yet with the dance. I thought it was a good dance, deserving of better scores than it got but I hated seeing her go home on a dance that was essentially dedicated to her daughter and one in which that daughter participated in the dance.
I'll just say it again, no one should be sent home on most memorable year week!
