Thank God that's over...and now ALL is right with the world again.
My sentiments exactly, cali. Whew, that was one tough ride.
So "the pistol" went out as #3, huhn? I smell something really fishey. What happened to all her support? She should have easily won if what the teabaggers were supposedly doing was true. Is that the way scoring goes on at the end all the time? The judges get to vote a few more times?
Was it all a put on by ABC?? Momma wasn't even there tonight. She was busy at a book signing. A book signing is more important than your kid's finale night?? Did ABC fix the loophole of voting on line and Momma knew the kid wasn't going to win because her "pals" could not put the fix in last night? Whichever, win or lose, Sarah Palin should have been there tonight of all nights!
I loved Kyle and Lacey's cha-cha. He has so much personality!! I had my fingers crossed.
Jen and Derek won. I've much rather see the showdown be, Brandy, Jen and Kyle.
Did you hear that audience after Maks and Brandy danced?? They were electric those two. The crownd chanting "Brandy, Brandy" and the complete utter silence in an instant! I thought they had cut the mikes to the ballroom.
Oh be still my heart! Wasn't Rick Fox just gorgeous again? *getting verklempt here*! Where's my fan? I thought those flashes were over! Loved how he kept to the beat with that basketball. He even did everything Cheryl taught him....stayed in character, had nice use of his arms, kept that face on. Never missed a beat. *sigh*
Kurt Warner was okay too.
As much as I cringe about David Hasslehoff, he's a trouper fpr sure. "We've got a 3??"
I wasn't surprised at Michael Bolton not being there. I would not have bothered either. "Royal Albert Hall". Coinky-dink? Last time I saw Michael, he had long hair!
Wished I had been able to enjoy the show more but I kept thinking Bristol was going to win and it was all a scharade.
Bristol should not clasp her hands under her belly. In that blue outfit she looked preggers again just standing there with her hands under her tummy.

CU next season!
I can't believe I'm defending Sarah not being there tonight, but those books signing dates are set up months in advance. They probably had no idea Bristol would last on the show so many weeks for there to be a conflict.
Oh, my gosh, I thought the same thing about Bristol looking pregnant and I was trying to remember when her brief second engagement to Levi was and if it lined up with her showing a baby bump now. I guess only time will tell.
As soon as they announced that Bristol was in 3rd place I could hear a loud sigh of relief around the world.
Glad to see Jennifer win, congratulations to her.
And Kyle, I found to be quite entertaining through out the season.
I would have loved it if Kyle won, he was a joy to watch all season long! Jennifer winning is okay too, but Kyle has so much more personality, I smiled and smiled every time he danced.
You know, I didn't dislike Bristol...../thought she was kinda cute and naive and shy.....but as weeks progressed i saw a side of her that didn't quite sit right. I'm glad she came in third because I truly believe that in that group of 3 finalists that's where she belonged....but still feel Brandy should have been there instead. A final group of Brandy, Kyle, and Jen would have been incredible, and I wouldn't have been able to guess who would have won, plus wouldn't have cared.
I'm wondering ,too, about how voting was affected by all the hype about website voting instruction----how was that circumvented at last? i had a difficult time voting online last night. Had to try over and over. My identity wasn't verifiable so many times I was beginning to question who I was!! I never had any trouble before, so am wondering if more safeguards in place or if all a result of the "computer crash" that Tom referred to.
I watched the first episode of "Skating with the Stars" but wasn't drawn to it in the same way as DWTS. Anyone else watch it? Opinions?
Any "American Idol" viewers here? I think I'll watch for first few episodes at least. I liked the contestants they showed in the ad tonight.

Thank goodness that's over!
I, too, would've preferred Kyle to win. He was fun to watch.
Congrats to Jennifer and Derek.....Derek, you must have next season's geriatric *cough* star.
And you can bet next season's stars will be just as controversal as this season's. The more controversal, the better. It's a ratings game and a popularity contest with some dancing thrown in.
We watched the Finale last night, and just as we expected, Jen and Derek danced great. When Jen and Derek were announced as the winners, the look on Lacey's face was of high disappointment. Bristol was smiling at Jen, but it took a while for a smile to come up on Lacy's face. After announcing the winner, Tom Bergeron stated that there will be some changes in DWTS next season with some new twists......wonder what that means??
Watched part of the first show of Skating With The Stars and not real enthused with it.
Will be interesting to see the new American Idol judges and see who will compete. Don't know if we will watch the entire new Season though.
Looking forward AGAIN to watch AGT (America's Got Talent). We really, really like that show.
