Dancing with the Stars: Week 6 - A Hip-hop granny and more

Tonight’s show (Oct. 27), is set to feature Granny Cloris hanging on to do the old-school hip hop.

Viewers will also get to see yet another couple face the challenge of an injury. This time it’s Brooke Burke who has pulled a tendon in her foot. Will this be enough to keep them out of the running for the top spot?

Another unknown factor for tongiht’s show could be the guest judge - Michael Flatley of Lord of the Dance fame. Will he be harder on the dancers than Len Goodman?

On with the show -

Tonight’s “Dancing with the Stars’ Judges Comments

Maurice Greene & Cheryl Burke

Tonight’s dance - Viennese Waltz At times it seemed as though this couple was on… and then all of a sudden - Maurice was stiff as a board.

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley - 7 - Cheers - beautiful stuff.

Bruno Tonioli - 7 - At times you look like a surfer on dry land.

Carrie Ann Inaba - 7 - I thought it was sweet- Total Score 21 out of 30

Bruno Tonioli - 9 - The Lance is back on target.

Carrie Ann Inaba - 9 - Finally, that’s what we want to see.

Total Score 27 out of 30

Susan Lucci & Tony Dovolani

Tonight’s dance - Mambo I’m not sure if she was ‘wild and untamed’ as she claimed she would be… but a better performance than all most all of the other peformances

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley -8 - You might have been off a little off on your timing but no need to dwell on it.

Bruno Tonioli - 7 - Finally we are starting to see the devil…

Carrie Ann Inaba - 8 - You broke the box sister.

Total Score 23 out of 30

Brooke Burke & Derek Hough

Tonight’s dance - Rumba Derek did a nice job of pulling together a routine that played to their combined strengths - Nice job.

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley - 10 - You took my breath away.

Bruno Tonioli - 8 - Even standing here you have ability to smolder like a flame.

Carrie Ann Inaba - 8 - This was not your best dance. I feel that the injury held you back.

Total Score 26 out of 30

Cloris Leachman & Corky Ballas

Tonight’s dance - Vintage Cha Cha Cha I know that she’s been taking a lot of grief for all of her antics, but there is something about her and Corky’s performances that are just fun to watch. Will she win, no and I’m guessing her time on the show is coming to an end.

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley - 5 - you’re a legend - i think you are incredible lucky to have a talent man like (Corky) him

Bruno Tonioli - 5 - you’ve got to be the only person in the wold to sell such nonsense.

Carrie Ann Inaba - 5 - it sad to have lost Toni Braxton to this (performance). Total Score 15 out of 30

Cody Linley & Julianne Hough

Tonight’s dance - Samba Early in the competition I would have written Cody off… but tonight’s performance was solid, maybe a little too solid but he’s really improved since the beginning of the competition.

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley - 8 - I thought you got it completely wrong this week.

Bruno Tonioli - 7 - There’s some good news and bad news - the best is yet to come from you.

Carrie Ann Inaba - 8 - That was the most intense Samba - I like it. Total Score 23 out of 30

Warren Sapp & Kym Johnson

Tonight’s dance - Samba Warren’s has the unique skill of being a big guy that can glide across the dance floor. Not their best dance ever but a solid performance.

Judges Comments

Michael Flatley - 9 - Very interesting - very, very interesting.

Bruno Tonioli - 8 - You’ve got a knack of getting the character right.

Carrie Ann Inaba -8 - That was pretty sexy. Total Score 25 out of 30

The final element of tonight’s show is the group dance where the dancers will be dancing an old-school hop hop. Even Granny Cloris got into the dance - at least for a moment or two before she disappeared to the back stage to watch the other dancers dance. I was disappointed to see her return to the front of the stage when the group dance was over.

I think it may be time for Cloris to go… Do you agree?
