Dancing With the Stars Week 3: Who Got Eliminated?
As for what his most memorable year will be? All Michael would tell me is that "It's going to be fun because my most memorable year was one of the most tough years of my life. After 13 years of dealing with it, I smile more now than I used to, and I'm looking forward to sharing it."
Meanwhile, Alfonso Ribeiro really hyped up his most-memorable-year dance: "We're doing the jazz, and all I can say is that the world better watch!" But as for last night's dance, no, that was not Alfonso's son as his mini-me. He sure was cute though!
And finally, some of my DWTS superlatives from week three:
Biggest Question of the Night: Where was Karina Smirnoff when Tom Bergeron declared that she and Randy Couture were in jeopardy? Well, the obvious answer was that she was changing from her opening outfit number to her dance costume, but why the quick-witted Tom didn't address that Karina looked, um, different, was a bit of a surprise. Also a bit odd? Why she and Randy danced first for the second week in a row.
Best Use of Movie Night: Hands down, Lea Thompson dancing to the "Power of Love" at the Enchantment of the Seas prom. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Christopher Lloyd or Michael J. Fox showed up in the DeLorean with her.
Where we're going, we don't need dance floors! Yes, I finally got to sit in a DeLorean. My dad will be so proud.
Oddest Score of the Night: Betsey Johnson and Tony Dovolani with a 7-9-6-7. Really, Julianne Hough? A 6?
Best Transformation: Michael Waltrip and Emma Slater. Although Michael couldn't let "loose" as much as he had in weeks past, it served him well when it came to the judges' scores. Plus, now he doesn't have to shop for a Halloween costume. Robin Hood all the way, Waltrip!
Colorful Commentary: Surprisingly, it wasn't guest-judge Kevin Hart with the best one liners tonight (though I love his enthusiasm). Instead, that award goes to Carrie Ann Inaba, who managed to tell Janel Parrish that she gives "great sex" and then told Tommy Chong "it was like watching Yoda dance."
Biggest Question of the Night Part II: Just how much of an age difference was there between Gene Kelly and his wife, Patricia? Good genes, perhaps? (Sorry, I had to.)

How do you feel about Randy and Karina going home tonight?
