Tonight is the final chance for the three remaining contestants on "Dancing With the Stars" to impress the viewers at home.
As we've seen this season in particular, high scores from the judges may be nice. But, it's the viewers who matter because their votes can make an impact.
Going into tonight's season finale are Jennifer Grey, Kyle Massey & Bristol Palin.
Getting to this point wasn't always a smooth trip. There were some tense moments at the production office for "Dancing With the Stars."
ABC says a white powder in an envelope was delivered to the office this past Friday. It turned out to be talcum powder.
But, before they knew that, hazardous materials officials with the city of Los Angeles, fire department, police and FBI arrived at the studio lot where the ABC show airs.
This comes just days after the shock that viewers have put low-scorer Bristol Palin in the finals of "Dancing With the Stars," while voting off Brandy, who's had some of the highest scores from the judges.
Watch tonight's show at 8 p.m. and the results show Tuesday at 9 p.m. on ABC.

It’s five (5) votes from each phone line! Also you can vote online (but the trick of voting from multiple email won’t work because they filter multiple email votes that come from the same IP (as it should be). You can also text the last four digits of their number to vote via text - and yes, you can use all three methods and it’s not cheating because everyone can do the same.
That's why I'm going to watch the show before I vote. However, I do have a problem with Grey so as in most of my political voting history will be voting AGAINST someone. She's a professional dancer so should be ineligible. That's like putting Taylor Swift on Idol.
No, the person who died in an auto accident caused by Brandy is the one who was robbed.
If people register multiple email addys and vote from the same computer, they will toss the excess votes from the same IP address.
But she studied dancing while in school. She probably kept in practice. I would vote for Palin over her.
I think since there are three couples, you get 4 votes. Last week 4 couples got 5 votes.
You can vote five times on the phone.
I don’t think so. If you try to vote again you will get a message saying that you look familiar and does someone else from your household want to vote. They then direct them to sign in or register.
If they were only allowing one set of votes per computer they would tell you that you reached your limit and leave it at that.
I wonder if Mark has been under this much pressure before, with death threats and white powder in the mail...
My advise is to vote for who you want to see win. This is not a difficult concept - If this were strictly a competition to determine the best dancer on a purely technical basis, they WOULD NOT be pitting professional against amateurs. You are assuming this is ONLY about who is technically the best dancer. That is not the case, otherwise they would ONLY base the winners of the professional judges scores. And for the record, I’m voting for Bristol because of her tremendous improvement and the fact that Brandy and Jennifer both have professional entertainment experience. NOT FAIR FROM THE GIT-GO! So in this case, where some contestants have a very clear skill advantage, it is not out of line to vote for the underdog.
No, never before, but he’s been very strong for Bristol.
I read his jounral yesterday in USA Today.
Not to mention that she doesn’t look at all like she used to due to some “work” on her face!
I just refreshed the dancing with the stars web site, can we vote now because it shows now that we can
DITTO!..... START VOTING NOW FOLKS!! Let the games begin!!
Jennifer studied dance at "New York's prestigious Dalton School" and she was paid to dance in the movie "Dirty Dancing". By definition, she is a professional dancer.
Joe Montana hasn't played football in 16 years; would he have an unfair advantage in a "Football with the Stars game"?
Are you here?
It’s ON!!!

She got a huge paycheck for dancing in that movie. Even paid a dime makes one a professional.
