DWTS Season 22: Week 7

Icons night

Jodie. Not bad. But he looked to be pulling her around the floor. Her butt was sticking out a bit, may have been corrected if their hips were connected. 8s yes, 9s no.

Kim. That song is not a samba. No bounce, no hips. Her knees were straight the entire time. The judges are being too nice. Methinks she's going home. Way too high.

Nyle. I liked it, but there were a few things off about his frame. That song wasn't a foxtrot. Wouldn't call it a 10.

Antonio. His butt was out and he was leaning forward the entire time. Messed up a bit. I liked the choreography. Too high for me.

Wanya. That was good. A few times he looked bow legged. I agree with the scores.

Ginger. A very pretty Viennese waltz with contact at the hips in hold. I agree with the scores.

Von. Eh. Song didn't help me envision salsa. The salsa part was very basic. No hips and footwork was iffy. Little too high.

Paige. I liked it. A little too much Tina and not enough jive though. Her feet had a little trouble keeping up at times. I agree with the scores.

Team dance round

Team James Brown. Interesting. But Von and Antonio can go home soon. Not a 10.

Team Beyonce. More costume changes. Kim was the weakest of the group. A little low.

And we lose Kim and Von. I agree.

    You and I were on the same wave length. I thought "Paint It, Black" was a bad choice for a tango! Who knew how much worse it would get after that? The Jackson 5's "ABC" as a samba? Elvis for a salsa?? It was definitely a night to use the mute button. Interesting that when Nyle was front and center during the team dance, and went off tempo a little, they all followed suit. That was a courageous decision to have him in the middle instead of off to the side.

I seem to be a bit all over the place this week. Let me walk you through it. Sunday, I have declared this day to be for 'insanity'. I shall try and keep this up. So Monday, I picked up a new cross-stitch, Mystical Wizard. More on that later but here are the colors. Wednesday, I decided to work on one of my sewing projects. A 17.5" stuffed Christmas tree. I was going to make the 12" one but I had enough fabric if I ignored the included cutting diagram and got away with 1/8" less. But come Thursday, I was tired of my cross stitch. There's only so much I could take of stitching blue on blue, and mainly two colors of blue. Of course the upper left is the least interesting part color-wise of this piece. So I switched to The Accolade. I'll include the last photo I took of it (with my old phone) because I didn't get that many rows finished. But not bad for only two days.   And as today is Sunday, I worked on Insanity again. And...

Tommy. It was muddy and he seemed to forget some of it. As usual. I notice they didn't mention the break in hold during the dance. Too high. Lea. It felt careful. It could've used more power, controlled power. It felt like she was walking through it. Not worth 9s. Bethany. I liked it and her dress. I think she missed a step during a side by side but got caught up. There were moments she could've filled instead of just pausing. I don't know if it was 10s definitely 9s. Antonio. Not a lot of actual Viennese Waltz. He didn't do much. I agree with the scores. Michael. Just, no. 5s are generous. Janel. A tad slow for a Viennese Waltz. But it was interesting. A little low. Alfonso. She danced around him a lot. I didn't see too much hip action. Technique needs work. I'll give him the scores based on performance. Sadie. The character didn't work with the dance. She was too loose. I'll give them the scores. Team dances Its...
