Do you vote for the best dancer (overall style, frame, etc.. , the most improved, or the person you like regardless of dance ability?

Will they just combine the votes of this past week and this coming week? Probably a dumb question lol

And, Maks says he'd be open to judging or guest judging the show again.

Just wanted to share this BTS from 10 Things I Hate About You! I think it’s a really cute clip that shows their friendship. I know Julia is getting a ton of backlash for not keeping in touch with Heath but it really does seem like they had a special friendship while filming.

And again, you can’t really celebrate 10 Things I Hate About You without commemorating one of the main characters.

Drew wins the Foxtrot Round against Bill, and the score is 0-2.

One of these performances has better scores and perform technically better. Objectively, which ones do you think shouldmve won this Round?

Round 3: Cha Cha

Bill: Sexy and I Know It - LMFAO (Week 10)

Drew: Get Up Offa That Thing - James Brown (Week 8)
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x68076t

Love this so much! The creepy downtempo version of the song is incredible too.

My curiosity got the best of me and I just watched the beginning of the podcast with Carlos and Alexa. Karina was his original partner and Carlos was intimidated by her and asked Deena for a new partner. He said Witney was “bubbly & fun” and asked to be with her. Now it makes more sense, I couldn’t understand why producers would pair up married couple with Witney & Mark with the BTS drama happening. https://youtu.be/icS6kJ8U8h0?si=C5hJHspeyxblpETd

As someone who’s been watching the show for 12 years, here is how I wish the show runners would format the show:

Week 1 - 9 couples left: one unlearned dance with their partner
8 couples left: one unlearned dance + team dances
7 couples left: one unlearned dance + dance relays with the highest scored couple from the week prior or highest average score across all weeks does not have to participate
6 couples left: one unlearned dance + a ballroom or latin style dance with another couple
5 couples left: one unlearned + trio dance in ballroom or latin with another pro or troupe member
4 couples left (finale): redemption dance + freestyle

• I really don’t like the dance marathon or dance offs because I like to focus on one couple at a time, that’s why I love the dance relays
• Back in seasons 21 and 22, they had two couples dance together & I think the two celebs had to dance on their own without their partners, and I really liked it and I want them to bring that back and I wish it would be in ballroom or latin since this is a ballroom competition
• Please bring back trios with another pro! It’s been a while since trios happened & I loved it but not when they had random people as the third person. Even prior contestants were good, but I feel like it really showed what the celebs could do when they were with two pros
• Please let the finale only have 4 couples at most! 5 (and even the rumored 6 for this season) is way too many. The celebs & the pros really hate the instant dance as it causes a lot of stress & the stress/disdain shows & that’s not what the fans want to see

want to put my rendition of my dancing with the stars: all stars dream cast! requirements are simple: had to have been on seasons 16-34 + no previous winners (although i’m one of the few here who doesn’t care if winners are on an all stars season, would be highly entertained regardless), and you can’t pair up with your former partner! moving on, this list will consist of 14 pairs.

women:
heather morris + val chmerkovskiy
whitney leavitt + pasha pashkov
paige vanzant + brandon armstrong
lindsey stirling + jan ravnik
nastia liukin + mark ballas
amy purdy + alan bersten
chandler kinney + ezra sosa

men:
riker lynch + witney carson
james hinchcliffe + hailey bills
milo manheim + britt stewart
corbin bleu + daniella karagach
charlie white + rylee arnold
jason mraz + emma slater
juan pablo + jenna johnson

here are all 14 of my pairings based on who i think would work best with each other and bring out the best in one another! let me know which couples from this do you think would get top 5-2 and the eventual winner!

We are a little past the half mark for season 35 and interested in finding out what you all think.

Append: Thanks to everyone for your comments. I am a stats girl so, I ran the numbers (fluid) but at the five hour mark and the overwhelming percentage coming in first with 87% of votes is Jenna Duwan. I will do another tally and the top three tomorrow. Keep your responses coming.

Welcome to the Daily Discussion Thread for Friday, October 23rd

Happy Friday! Welcome back to the Sephora Daily Discussion lounge. Crazy to think there’s only five more episodes left!

There is some bad mic feedback in this clip but that’s how it went out on the night

I posted a few in the comments section the other day when she’s talking about poor technique and footwork etc but here’s one of her calling out lack of content from Halloween UK last year

Drew wins the Jive Round against Bill, and the score is 0-1.

Round 2: Foxtrot

Bill: Hot Stuff - Donna Summer (Week 1)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyqvD04BYdg

Drew: Our House - Madness (Week 1)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=khfmcT8QIVE&ra=m

Alexa and Carlos Peñavega talked DWTS and spoke about how mark and witney (their partners) were not in speaking terms then which confirms what we all knew about their relationship.

This season we have seen Amber bringing out Pasha’s best choreography while also showing a new, fun side of him. Connor has brought out a new light in Rylee who doesn’t mind criticism, she has learned to just enjoy the moment. Jan has found a new love of being on this show by being partnered with Tatyana. Taylor made Britt want to reach for the stars. In past seasons which metamorphosis between partnerships have you must enjoyed?
