Judges' Scores for DWTS Week 8 - Instant Dance

This week was instant dance - the couples know the type of dance they are doing, they just don't know the music they will dance to until about 30-40 minutes before i.e. when they finish their first dance!

The big news of the night was that Ralph Macchio had a bad knee and could only practice for nine hours.  He did seem to be in pain (he had a ruptured cyst!).

Here are the scores (Instant Dance second):

Romeo and Chelsie Hightower - 27 & 25 = 52
Ralph Macchio and Karina Smirnoff - 25 & 21 = 46
Hines Ward and Kym Johnson - 28 & 26 = 54
Disney actress Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas - 29 & 26 = 55
Actress Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy - 28 & 25 = 53

The judges seemed to squabble a lot and both Carrie Ann and Bruno were booed a couple of time, but the disagreements didn't really show up in the scoring.

So, Ralph and Karina are a ways behind everyone else.  It's going to be hard to stay in, but we haven't really had any major upsets yet and there is no data to evaluate how popular the stars remaining are.

We shall see tomorrow!
