Episode Report Card Kim: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Shake Your Bon Bon
By Kim | Season 13 | Episode 21 | Aired on 11.22.2011
Kristin is back with a new routine instead of rehashing her old one. Okay, I don't know what in the hell that was other than a chance for Mark to throw Kristin around. Whenever there was supposed to be actual dancing, Kristin screwed it up. She didn't exactly convince me that she should have stayed beyond her "shocking" elimination.
The week that Chynna was eliminated, she froze during her Mission Impossible dance, so tonight she wants to try to do it again. She and Tony rehearsed it and she hopes to prove that she can get through the dance and get the monkey off her back. Oh, I hope it works out. Holy shit. That was really good. No, REALLY good. Like she could have been a finalist if she had always danced like that. I thought that routine was better than some of the finalists' routines we've seen over the past few days. Good for her.
Carson is back to do a routine to "Vogue" by Madonna. It's pretty awesome. The dancing is, predictably, awful. But Carson gets to dance with both Val and Teddy, and he looks way better with them than he ever did with Anna. That said, I hope winning Design-A-Dance this season means that Anna gets a really good partner next season. Carson was fun, but never a serious contender. She deserves to be in the finals again.
After another recap, Tristan and Nancy return to reprise their Spamalot routine, which was definitely her best and most charming of the season. Still is. I wish they would let Tristan talk more. I like how he talks.
Chaz and Lacey and Lacey's dad dance to a song about, "I like them chunky!" It's cute, and Chaz looks happier than he did on the show pretty much ever. But it's a little too much Rerun from What's Happening for me. Afterwards, Chaz reveals that he's been there every week since he was eliminated to support the remaining stars.
What about David Arquette? He's doing a routine with the whole troupe and Kym. He puts it really well when he says that it will be great to do it without worrying about scores or votes. They're reprising their Grease routine, which really is a lot better with a whole gang of people dancing. It's a lot of fun and high energy and I wish David had made it further than Hope on the show, because he certainly brought a better attitude. While Tom and Brooke are trying to throw to commercial, David steals the Mirrorball trophy. Brooke, of course, doesn't notice but Tom does and ad-libs something. Because he's awesome.
How sick do you think Lady Antebellum is of singing "I Need You Now." I liked the song once, but I'm pretty sick of it at this point and I don't have to sing it every day. Or hear it every day. Anyway, they perform that song while some pros dance.
