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 only a TV program. It’s possible you might want to think about saving your outrage for Acorn.
Thank you much.
Facebook’s DWTS page has been wildly supporting Jennifer. They were in a frenzy because they couldn’t get through.
...In the two-hour Season Finale on TUESDAY, NOV. 23 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET), the thrill of the competition will continue as the three finalists perform their personal favorite ballroom dance of the season and will be ranked by the judges.In the final element of the competition on Tuesday, each of the couples will do an "Instant Dance" -- in which they will have to master the Cha Cha Cha to music they've been given for the first time after the show's broadcast has begun.
Also on Tuesday's spectacular Season Finale, multi-platinum, award-winning recording star Christina Aguilera will perform two songs...
DWTS did the same thing last season with singer Nicole from 'The Pussycat Dolls' group. It's unfair for a person who never had a dance lesson to go up against someone who has been paid to dance.
RE: That’s like putting Taylor Swift on Idol.
If an unknown Taylor Swift were to compete in Idol, she would NOT WIN.
Her voice is just OK and auto-tuned to make it sound nice on record. Every time I watch her perform live, she is inevitably “pitchy” as Randy Jackson would say.
I also do not think she has the versatility to tackle the various musical themes and genre that Idol requires.
Yes, she’s talented, but mostly in her own niche. Idol isn’t the venue to showcase it.
Just my opinion.
Ah yes, the scores tonight can be manipulated to select the winner so as to not disappoint Jennifer or the judge, since there’s little chance of the judges giving all three couples the exact same scores for both dances tonight.
I think I might have to vote again.
:)
Oh good. Then you located it all right?
I was just about to ask RonDog to find it to post here.
I agree!
I’m happy that Bristol has won so much money...
I did find it, ty. Also found the other freestyles and must say after watching it again that Jennifers was most unimpressive. Basically it looked like she just stood there and let whats his name move her around. On pure entertainment value Kyles was the most fun.
Jennifer Grey's father, the famous Joel Grey, had a Broadway career on the stage. Jennifer grew up around Broadway. Bristol said last night she never went to Broadway and never heard of the play, 'Chicago.'
Bristol Palin & Mark Ballas The finals -Season 11.avi
Right. The bright yellow and the ghetto dancing. Entertainment. Again, his partner did most of the dancing, too, but he has a lot of personality and he seems like a nice kid. He got down on the floor and had some good moves, too. Jennifer is almost like a pro. I would have a lot more respect for her, were she put with a rank amateur.
I loved Bristol’s honesty in that discussion. Yes, libs, there are plenty of us who live happy, normal lives without Broadway.
It cut-out before they finished the dance, but that's all right.
We have the entire dance, HERE
Not outrage. Disgust - with the people on FR that are using Bristol to make themselves feel better...
And, your point?
Boo-freakin-Hoo. Most of us like Bristol, period. You want to read into the minds of others, or take issue with the comments of fellow members, then there’s something truly askew with you. Find another hobby. Your sour grape and sanctimonious attutude is not welcome on this happy and fun thread. IOW, get lost.
Thanks for posting the dance! LOVE her ponytail bopping all over.
