She ended with grace & charm..

I of course was disappointed how the event ended. I think it would have been impt to share the actual voting with the various ways votes were tabulated(how many text, call, email etc)

Do I think deceit? But of course.

Re: Jennifer. I think she is a very talented dancer. Think both Kyle & Bristol did the amazing in improvement (and isn’t this what this show is about?)

Part of me can’t help but think of “image” and that the show wanted to have a sleek winner.. Both Kyle & Bri are “fluffy”. And of course the political ramifications.

I think Jennifer said she had a herniated disk (not ruptured, which is much more severe).. I have had the herniation & other back issues. I have a hard time just getting around, yet along doing demanding dancing. Perhaps she was shot up with cortisone etc.

Was she lying? who knows, most of us here have our doubts about the veracity of her claims & are aware of her wanting the sympathy nod. Can you imagine being married to her if that is her regular MO?

I thought all three couples had good performances last night. It was actually the first show I had watched. A few weeks ago watched about 25 min. I didn’t realize I could not vote last night..Dang. I regret not being in an geographic area with access to means to participate on Monday.

Thanks for the thread each week Dr. S & to all for the input. It is unfortunate that some felt it necessary to come & stir up ill will this last week. Live & let live seems to not be part of their mentality & an aire of faux superiority was a little too thick and pretty sad.

If Sarah Palin was dancing I wouldn’t vote for her if I wasn’t watching the show. If George Washington was dancing I wouldn’t vote for him if I didn’t watch.

On a "We mus all adore the Palin's" thread you speak blasphemy.

Don't you just love the, well..., love on this thread?

You're welcome, Dolly. A lot of us wanted to get together and support Bristol on DWTS. It was as simple as that, and a handful of disruptors kept clicking on the thread.

Freaking Jennifer, hurt yet again, but going to dance through it. There is NO audience voting, so why the heck did we even need to hear about it?? To justify the two sets of perfect scores the Judges are going to give her tonight, as if we didn’t expect it anyway???

A lot of people were wondering the same thing.

Swayze didn't like her and I think we now know why. Geez, there wasn't a week that she didn't complain about something.

Of course, Patrick Swayze's own words must be a lie, too?

Swayze was also very complimentary of his co-star, Jennifer Grey. "When Jennifer and I did our screen test together, a real chemistry and a real heat happened," he said. "Jennifer has as much natural talent as any young woman I've ever seen." From here....

You’re welcome! It was a pleasant diversion to escape the election drama for a few hours every week...and to see Bristol improve each time.

Just goes to show ya, extreme we just might be. The blindness to what is fair and true, and acting like the enemy is really quite repulsive. I wasn’t going to read these responses, but you give me hope.

2ndDivisionVet, I still support Sarah Palin, but like she said, if someone better steps up to the plate, she would do what is best for the nation (like she did what is best for Alaska when she resigned because of financial overload to their economy), and I, too, will decide who I think is best. Not because they have a great personality, but because they actually will be the best in a nation and a world upon the brink of chaos and turmoil.

I got my phone votes in easily, no problem. They cheated on the internet voting.

I tried signing on the website at 9:10pm and could not get through. It wouldn't even let me sign on.

The first 3 or so seasons I used to read their forum and there were a LOT of complaints about people not being able to vote. This really isn't anything new for them.

You left out the part in his book where he said she was a pain, talked too much, and he didn't like her.

Why do you parse words?

I never said she wasn't talented. I said she complains a lot!

Nolly, Jennifer actually siad "ruptured". I have a couple of herniated discs so when she said the word "ruptured", I immediately wondered what was up and how how she could even stand up?

I was not on the thread until after the show was over so I hadn't even seen everyone else's comments about it.

Actually I saw the interview. The reason the "didn't get along" was because he was all work and no play and she wanted to have some fun doing the movie. Swayze, by his own account, was a perfectionist and she was an untrained dancer. That was the story behind the friction. He was pissed at her because there were times she didn't take it as seriously as him.

In his aptly titled autobiography, "The Time of My Life" - the release of which was pushed from October to next Tuesday in the wake of his recent death - Swayze writes that his leading lady was one huge pain in the derriere on-set.

from here

Like I said:

"We did have a few moments of friction when we were tired or after a long day of shooting. [Grey] seemed particularly emotional, sometimes bursting into tears if someone criticized her," he writes in his Atria-published memoir. "Other times, she slipped into silly moods, forcing us to do scenes over and over again when she'd start laughing."

Not sure what your point is. But, that's what I said he said.

Oh, look. Then there is this part:

But Swayze - like the nice guy he really was - forgave the actress for her annoying tics, saying she still did a "truly phenomenal job" and that "in many ways, she made the movie."

Yep, despised her to the end. NOT! Read more: http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2009/09/24/2009-09-24_patrick_swayze_memoir_recalls_jennifer_grey_as_a_pain_on_set_of_dirty_dancing.html#ixzz16CwKgGgp

We were supporting Bristol.

I wonder how many of the people criticizing you for supporting Bristol will be parked in front of their televisions Saturday supporting their favorite college football team...

Gives them the wiggle room to select who they wish over the voting little people doesn't it?

It's their show, so why not.

I can't believe Gray was so serious about this. Maybe it was to have a brief moment of fame again.
With her neck in such a precarious situation it is scary she opted to participate at all.

Would have been no fun if the plate failed and she got paralyzed right there in front of national TV IMO.

I also can't stand the few liberals making so many nasty comments and threats. Why?
I hope their families enjoy the same treatment by their neighbors. What stupidity!
