ERKEL?? It CAN'T be!

Erkel? Is that you? It can't be. But it is.

(Please copy and paste above to see video of Erkel dancing to the lovely classic, 'The Way You Look Tonignt'. Sorry, don't know how to make the link 'live'- but you're GOT to see this!!)

Jaleel White, who won America's hearts back in the 90's as nerdy Steve Urkel, (and is very familiar to us here on FR) hit the floor with such a sparkling foxtrot that he scooped two coveted 9s, and an 8 for the first time ever for a first dance on Dancing With The Stars. Judge Bruno said he though he was watching the great Gregory Hines and that it couldn't get any better.

I was just floored by Erkel's performance. He completley won me over.

I don’t watch dancing, but I saw him play some basketball back in the day. He was a pretty good athlete.

Jaleel and the British opera singer were awesome.

There were also several others who were outstanding. Best cast EVER, and the ratings will also reflect the fact that they decided to not have any freak shows this time.

Erkel was a silly character, played by a normal person.

It was fun watching them all. Nobody truly horrid except maybe Martina N.

I used to watch this kid when his show was on and every once in a while you would catch a glimpse of his excellent coordination.

It appears that White has had quite a sucessful career since 'Family Matters'- graduating from UCLA with a degree in film and television, doing TV, voice-overs. Who knew? I didn't, since I don't watch much regular TV.

Obama's not a good golfer. Just because he does it a lot, doesn't mean he's learning anything. Much like his presidency.

might add ... if directorship is in his future, will be of interest to see what his point of view would be (if) portrayed in film. Always was a fan of the show and for his character part ... his was the best of the writing for the show (imho).

Question ... Is Jaleel White's political views known?

The youtube version was rather jerky- or maybe it’s my PC. LOL
This link is smooth:

Erkel will be one of the final four for sure.

He was my fave along with the classical singer. But I had to vote for Driver, of course!

Max is going to be so mad. He’s got Melissa Gilbert who is a basket case..not a bad dancer but her nerves will kill her unless she calms down.
