Originally Posted By trekkeruss IMO, "They" were only right about Shandi in the sense that she didn't have the popularity to advance any further. Her dancing may not have been the best, but technically it was better than John's or Clive's.
Originally Posted By Lisann22 I don't know, from where I'm sitting she seemed pretty darn awful. Really stiff and wooden. I'm not one to correct cause I always make mistakes however it's Clyde not Clive. ;> His basketball knickname was Clyde the Glide.

I don't like her personally, but I am rooting for her on the show. It's weird, she's the first person I've felt that way about...disliking, but supportive...
Originally Posted By smeeeko ^yep star wars theme.. and totally great dancing despite it. He's got a hook, so I can see Joey going a few more weeks. Ian I think will be in top 3 along with Laila. I don't care for leeza & I really don't care that she's 50 & fabulous.. yikes. Oh & John is over 50 so he gets my vote & not just cause he's the Pixar goodluck charm. =) Ok.. well maybe. hee hee. He's giving it a good go.
Originally Posted By hightp I think the Star Wars music was by Meco, it was kind of a disco version done way back in 1977 or 1978 and was fairly popular. You can, probably, find recordings of it on line. By the way, John turned 60, either this week, or last. He may not be the greatest, but he makes the most effort.
Originally Posted By hightp I just found out, John turns 60 tomorrow, April 6. Since Joey is such a huge fan of Star Wars, I find it suprising that he didn't mention that John played Major Derlin in Empire Strikes Back. It was a small role, but fun to see him on Hoth, in winter gear.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss Leeza looks great. Her dancing is pretty stiff though. But it will be her lack of fans that will knock her out of the competition.
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter IMHO, both John and Clyde should go home before Leeza. Maybe Billy Ray, too. Sadly, however, I have not yet been made the Omnipotent Queen of Dancing With the Stars.
Originally Posted By poohbear14 I think it's time we lost a male competitor. I say Clyde should go home.
Originally Posted By ToonKirby >Is Leeza still mentioning she's 50?< No, but the ditzy hostess still is ... >I think it's time we lost a male competitor.< True, the women are dropping like flies.

Originally Posted By velo I think they might loose a lot of potential competitors that way, though.

I'm not sure I even remember them saying much when Master P (?) was on and barely even showing up.
Originally Posted By debtee funny you guys mentioning the rehearsal times. The judges in DWTS Australia, were going on and on about the lack of rehearsal time last week, it got to be annoying!
Originally Posted By trekkeruss For you left-coasters, don't miss Apolo tonight! He and Julianne were hot, hot HOT!
Originally Posted By chickapin Agreed on Apolo and Julianne! As a judge said, the music, choreography, and dance came together perfectly. Very well done. I hope we've seen the last of Clyde--I'm sure he's a fine person and a gifted athlete, but his dancing is DULL (ie: nonexistant).
