Episode Report Card Kim: A- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Three For One
By Kim | Season 9 | Episode 18 | Aired on 11.16.2009
Mya and Dmitry are also doing the cha cha cha (good thing Kelly went first) and they incorporate some hip hop moves in a way that I don't love. And also the song just sort of ends and it seems like it's unplanned? And Mya does a split and then Dmitry leaps over her? Weird. Carrie Ann liked the hip action, but she didn't like the beginning. Bruno yells at her. Len spends all of his judging time complaining that Bruno yells too much, and then says he was disappointed by their routine because he wanted it to go on longer. Bruno compares it to a great movie trailer and he wishes he could have seen the whole film. Scores: Carrie Ann 9, Len 10, and Bruno 10.
So who won't make it to the finals? Well, Donny's scores are pretty low thanks to their 21, but his fanbase could overcome it. I don't see a lot of overlap between his fanbase and anyone else's, whereas I could see Kelly and Mya and Joanna all working the same angle. So I think Mya is safe, but anyone else could go. It probably should be Kelly, loath as I am to admit it, but I'll be happy with any combination of the remaining dancers in the finals. Here are the final scores:
Mya and Dmitry: 28 + 30 + 29 = 87
Joanna and Derek: 27 + 27 + 27 = 81
Kelly and Louis: 24 + 27 + 27 = 78
Donny and Kym: 21 + 26 + 27 = 74
