I remember CAI saying the vote on season 23 was the closest in DWTS history.

I've tried to like this season but I just can't. There seems to be no camaraderie amongst the cast and the producer manipulation is more blatant than usual. Boo to season 24.

I enjoyed Nick's performance. With Peta at the helm this pair will steadily improve. As I have wandered around various DWTS forums I noticed that that Nick is getting very favourable reviews for the most part. That likely ticks off the anti Nick faction. Nick and Peta are getting some of my votes.

I will try to be realistic as to who could possibly do the show. Baby Chmerkovskiy will be very young next season so no Peta. Kym has hung up her dancing shoes, no Kym. Maks says he's done, no Maks. Derek is otherwise occupied, no Derek. My number one favourite, Tristan is highly unlikely to ever come near DWTS again, no Tristan. I saw some recent pics of Lacey and although she has always been a great fave of mine, she has added a substantial amount of weight so isn't likely in dance comp shape, no Lacey. My picks; Sharna, Lindsay, Emma, Edyta, Oti and Oksana from Strictly. Sasha, Dmitry, Val, Mark, Alan, Tony.

Oh I would have to pick Tristan. Probably the nicest guy ever on DWTS. Talk about patience, Tristan has a world of it. He always says the main focus of his teaching is to make it fun for his partner.

This is an amazing man.

I will watch and rewatch James'and Sharna's (and Jenna, too) again and again in the future. I have a very select list of past dances I watch often. None of the other Season 23 dances make that list. Some good ones happened, of course, but none particularly memorable or different.

I have had a VPN for awhile now. My primary reason for obtaining one was internet security but hey, being able to vote for Hinch and Sharna is a plus.

Last week on Strictly Come Dancing Louise and Kevin did an AT that mesmerized me. If you get a chance have a look at it. If James and Sharna can perform an AT on this level they will blow everyone away. And I think they can. Trio dance, Salsa or Samba. Hmm, I lean toward preferring Salsa for these three and I'm not even sure why.

Me too. I've been hoping for a James/Sharna AT. And the top is here they belong as far s I'm concerned.

Nothing yet but Sharna appears to be Glenda, the good witch so perhaps she is in a supporting role.

To me this immunity and dance-offs show was simply a seeding round to set the stage for the finishing order. Which is quite plain now, James, Laurie, Calvin, Jana. I think Terra and Marilu don't factor in because they are the next two gone. I think James will take the MB mainly because he is so much more interesting than Laurie and a much better dancer than Calvin.

I don't think James is in any need of immunity due to low voter support. I belong to several DWTS fan groups on FB and he and Sharna seem to have a commanding lead in support. People have just fallen in love with him. Jana, on the other hand, may very well benefit from immunity, as I don't think she is pulling in big voting numbers.

James and Sharna are magical together but if it becomes necessary for Jenna to substitute for Sharna I am not overly worried. Certainly the dance will have Sharna's touch all over it and she will have been with James and Jenna every step of the way. Jenna is a good ballroom dancer and James is a dream partner so all should be fine.

Very glad that the Agnes-Kirk storyline resolved last night. It was dragging and now on to more engrossing episodes. (I hope).
