Will Kate Avoid Elimination Again?

It was a strange night on Dancing with the Stars - uneven judging, conservative costumes (apart from Edyta of course) and Tom Bergeron playing a corpse (oh, wait, that was on "Castle", sorry Tom).

The strangest thing of all was Kate actually danced better and seemed (in parts) to enjoy herself!  And the dip at the end was pretty impressive.

Funnily enough, Kate seems to be relatively safe this week.  Assuming she continues her mysterious lead in the viewers' vote.  The list below shows the share of the judges' vote; Kateonly needs 0.3 percentage points more than Aiden from the viewers to be safe.

Evan Lysacek & Anna Trebunskaya 14.0%
Nicole Scherzinger & Derek Hough 13.5%
Pamela Anderson & Damian Whitewood 12.7%
Chad Ochocinco & Cheryl Burke 11.9%
Erin Andrews & Maksim Chmerkovskiy 10.5%
Jake Pavelka & Chelsie Hightower 10.2%
Niecy Nash & Louis van Amstel 9.7%
Aiden Turner & Edyta Sliwinska 8.9%
Kate Gosselin & Tony Dovolani 8.6%

Kate made up a deficit of 2.8 percentage points over Pamela Anderson in the week 2 results show, so that means it is conceivable she could be ahead of Aiden, Niecy, Jake and Erin.  Wouldn't it be a shock if Erin went!

I say again, Kate shouldn't have appeared in the first place.  But what she's doing - learning from scratch and overcoming her discomfort - is part of what the show is about.

Although, I would like Tony to be put out of his mystery...

We shall see tonight!

  1. Please put us all out of our misery, not just Tony! Biased judging keeps Kate in the game! "Passion Night" on DWTS was a real disappointment. The costumes were the most dowdy and conservative ever seen on DWTS. Why cover amazing women head to toe in sheets and old drapery on "Passion Night?" The judging was hideous! Tough on some, extremely easy on others. If they are going to be tough, then be tough on everyone not just a few. Nicole gets criticized for "shaky ankles," Erin for "flailing arms," and their scores get docked after some truly amazing performances while Kate gets 6's for sleep walking through her routine? Biased horrible judging!
