Unicycling out the door

Well, I can't believe I'm saying this but I will miss Adam. Although he definitely could still use some lessons in listening, his closing comment: "I lost 25 pounds but gained 105 pounds of angel" was very touching and nice and gracious, and it acknowledged Julianne.

And although his dancing skills were not advanced, he was always entertaining and for the short time he danced, he really had made tremendous progress. I think if he had stayed in the show, he may have become a decent ballroom dancer.

I love his quote about everyone finding what scares them most...finding their Dancing with the Stars! Who knew that Adam could be inspirational and wise?

Thank you Adam for showing us what you were really made of and for reminding us that we can set goals and tackle challenges and that those things make our lives richer and better.

The boot for the "Gutt"

I am feeling kind of neutral about the results show this week although maybe a twinge of sadness for Steve Guttenberg. He was definitely not the strongest dancer but he was a nice guy. A bit idealistic and overly sweet at times perhaps, but it's hard to fault someone for being nice and for having a true joy and enthusiasm for what they are doing. I give him credit for putting himself on the line and tackling something new on live television. And some of the celebrities could take a cue from Steve and LISTEN instead of talk (Adam, if you're listening, that means you!)!

I do want to comment that I'm getting tired of the filler part of the results show. I'm weary of listening to out of tune singers and the painfully slow way they announce the results. I've resorted to just watching about 10 minutes before the end to avoid the rest of it. I hope that the producers won't destroy the DWTS charm and fun by driving away loyal fans with commercials and hype.

I also want to say that I think the judging was very inconsistent this week! The judges were very tough on Marlee and Mario in comparison to others they raved about. I was disappointed in the judges this week and Len in particular. If I were judging his performance, I would give him a 5.
