Episode Report Card Kim: A | 9 USERS: A- YOU GRADE IT Dances? Yes. Favorites? Maybe Not.

Carrie Ann introduces what she calls "the iconic dance of the show," so I knew immediately that it would be Drew and Cheryl's freestyle from season 2 at No. 4. I liked Drew during his season, but I think this routine is overrated. Drew's a great dancer, and he didn't get to do much dancing in this routine, because it just went from trick to trick. Cheryl looks weird with the dark black hair too. Some of the tricks look kind of awkward in the transitions too. I guess I just never got what the big deal was about this routine. I guess in Season 2, it was exciting, but nowadays, it doesn't really compare to some of the routines we've already seen in this special. Plus, I think about the rumors about Drew and Cheryl and it kind of grosses me out. But at the time, the audience and the judges both loved, loved, loved it.
Bruno gets to talk about No. 3, a kind of surprise entry with Stacy Keibler doing her samba with Tony. I barely remember Stacy, to be honest. I'll say this though; she's one of the few celebrities who can share outfits with Edyta, because she's got the bod. She's very graceful but she suffers from Lisa Rinna disease where her legs move about as if independent of her body. Also, Tony looks like a completely different person, and I can't figure out what it is. His hair was short and spiky, which was a good look for him, but even something about his face looks different. Did he have some work done? Or has he just aged that much? The only other notable thing about this routine was that Bruno got to unleash his "weapon of mass seduction" line, which I think he's used again since then.
