Dancing With the Stars week 5 performance show is Oct. 18, and it could mean that Bristol Palin is eliminated on Oct. 19. The past two weeks have seen her and dancing partner Mark Ballas consistently at the bottom of the weekly scoreboard.
Both times Palin and Ballas have been just ahead of the lowest scoring couple, getting saved each week, despite being placed in jeopardy by the combination of judges' scores and audience home votes.
Last week, Palin and Ballas were eighth place out of nine couples, just ahead of The Situation and Karina Smirnoff during week 4 of Dancing With the Stars. It was down to these two couples at the end of the show, and it was The Situation and Smirnoff who were sent home.
The previous week, Palin and Ballas were just ahead of Margaret Cho and Louis Van Amstel, but it was Cho and Van Amstel who went home. Now all of the low-scoring couples have been voted off the show, leaving Palin and Ballas very vulnerable at the bottom of the scoring so far this season.
As with any reality competition show, things can shift from week to week, and it could lead to Palin and Ballas putting up their best scores of the season.
So far in the season, Palin and Ballas have averaged a score of 18 out of 30, which isn't good by any stretch of the imagination. Maybe this is the week where they really impress the judges, though, making their elimination a rash prediction.
The Oct. 18 Dancing With the Stars performance begins at 8 p.m. on ABC, with the promotions for the show stating that they will all be dancing to TV theme songs.

of course judges have favorites, they are only human. They can pretend to hide their bias but they all really want Jennifer Gray to win. Its kinda like the NBA, the refs can all say they are objective but they have their favorites too
ME too!!
So what TV theme goes with Gorilla suits? George of the Jungle?..Tarzan kind of thing?
Only the like-minded watch them on TV. I only hear about their vile on other news shows or whenever I read about it here.
Tarzan and Jane?
The Monkees?
Yep, the judges/producers usually know which they want to go next.
Only one surprise I can think of after all these years, I can’t remember her name...she was a singer of some sort, not very well known, so did not get the phone calls she needed.
And she was really, really, good.
What is this about Bristol in a gorilla suit??
Gilligan’s Island, with Apes......LOL.
WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!
“I am worried.....”
Hey, hey, for the monkeys?
Do they get attacked by Headhunters LOL I loved Gilligan’s Island..great show, but they should have eaten Gilligan, it was his fault that they never got off that island
YOu called it
Everyone is getting prety good scores.
I smell a set-up tonight.
Theme from the MONKEYS!
OMG
What were Bristol’s scores..did they like the Monkey theme, gorilla theme, whatever the heck it was LOL
Bristol was lost in the beginning
Actually, those are great moose hunting legs. She could drag a moose pretty far with those legs.
Going to be bad..she is not doing well.
I find it interesting that many here have similar taste in women as Bill Clinton.
