ERKEL?? It CAN'T be!

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

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/dancing-with-stars-jaleel-white-katherine-jenkins-scores-301910

(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.

If Erkel started out with two nines and an eight how far can he go?
Unless something drastic goes wrong, he will win-
and I’m all for that. His performance just absolutely floored me.

Max is quite a hunk and a great dancer, but he’s so full of himself that he turns me off.
He had the audacity to refer to DWTS as ‘my show’, and later apologized. Sheesh.

Can anyone instruct me on how I could have made the link to the video in the original post ‘live’?
I looked up the FR HTML help page, but couldn’t get much out of it.

Actually, I’m currently salivating over Tristan..but he has Gladys Knight who will last for a while but won’t win.

Martina was terrible, wasn’t she? She looked like a tranie.

I think Erkel will win too. I have to get over wanting to vote for my hometown boy, Donald.

No, Martina wasn't the best. She really showed her age. I guess it's from all that sun from her years playing tennis. She said she hadn't put on a dress in 20 years. LOL

Unless Urkel does something drastic to go off track, he is sure to win. I've never seen anything like that for a first dance. His performance just floored me.

But, you know everyone agreed that these were the best performances ever for a first show. This should be a good season. I was actually losing interest after the last season, but with Erkel making such an astounding showing, I will follow the show and root for him.

Wait till they start letting/requiring them to do lifts. Max has a “load” to try and get off the ground...she’s a BIG girl..

Well, he can talk to Tristan who was paired up with Nancy G.
Who had Bristol? :-)

Could be, but Max appears to be quite strong.

What about when the guys start trying to lift Gladys Knight and especially that woman from ‘The View’? She’s a whopper. LOL

Thank you very much for the link.
I didn’t intend to ignore that.
It’s just that it was ‘jerky’ when I tried it.
Maybe it’s just my PC.

Thank you very much for the link.
No problem.

I don't watch, and never have watched, the show. I was only being helpful with the link.

Thanks patriot08.
