  1. I rewatched that clip on YT (yes, I am crazy) and I thought while it was short, very romantic. She just melted into his arms and he kissed her after he told her "let's get a hug" or something similar. I think we would have seen a longer kiss actually but the camera moved off their face. They seemed like they wanted it to go on longer but they couldn't. Some times those hugs where you don't want to let go can be just as romantic as a passionate kiss if not more romantic IMO. It is more intimate and connected. Frankly I am confused and mesmerized by all the chemistry she has with Peter if Bryan was her choice. That is the beauty of this show.
  2. Perhaps that is the edit of Peter that they are going for to make Rachel's final decision easier for her. The "I am so attracted to him but he doesn't feel the same way, so he is not the one for me."
  3. I thought that the hug that Peter and Rachel shared showed tremendous chemistry but they cut it very short so we would not see much, just a taste.
  4. It is a little weird - no to thinking about sex with a woman you made out with but down with nude selfies. ???? Not judging though.
  5. I was on the Peter train for that romantic first date but with this new spoiler it gave me pause... When Peter talks about Rachel and being with her he sounds hesitant whereas Bryan doesn't. The thing that strikes me is that when Bryan sucks face with her she responds and kisses him back. She does not resist.at.all. I would think if she were having feelings for Peter she would have a hard time responding so enthusiastically to Bryan's aggressive kissing. Now that I go back and watch the season promo you can see that it is Bryan she kisses so passionately. Just a speculation but could TPTB have Peter as the next lead locked and loaded even before the season started and story boarded it to have Rachel get to the end with him and then let him go, while she can pick from all the other suitors? He belonged to ABC even if she liked him. Wasn't Rachel herself picked as the next bachelorette when she did her season so she it was designed for her be let go by Nick? Peter is quite handsome and a season of him laying it down to become popular - the quiet mysterious good looking broken hearted suitor who gets a second chance at love? Swoon city for the bachelofiles. Reality TV. Sometimes I question myself why I watch. I hate the manufactured relationships but it is TV. The incorrect spoiler is probably going to boost ratings now.
  6. After Sharna's easy breezy chemistry with James last year this is so hard to watch... To me, Bonner is so dull and lackluster, no amount of showmance or hotness can make up for it. I don't even care about the grab-gate.
  7. Once he gets some rest I hope he takes his darling Becky on vacation where he can just chill. He's earned it for sure.
  8. I am proud of James and what he was able to do coming from where he came. I loved his little speech when he came in second and I thought he was gracious in his second place. James was always gracious personable and had something to say. I feel like he showed the world when he hangs up his helmet there are big things waiting for him especially something that involves him being in the public or on camera. He worked hard and put in long hours. He had no advantages going in. No one knew who he was nor did have any kind of training that would make learning dance easier. He treated Sharna with respect, listened to her took instruction and to me more importantly acknowledged her hard work also and her choreo. They were a team. So for that I loved and respected him. They made the season for me. I didn't need perfect dancing or a set number of Latin vs ballroom. I just wanted memorable dances so I could get lost in my little Mondayeve show. For me they delivered that and more. I said it before and I will say it again, the one thing James had boatloads over all the other celebs was that light and shade in dancing. On Sharna's instagram there is a beautiful picture sharing the stage for the last time and it is very touching. It was the first time I cried this season. I am sure that they will post more comments and pics plus I am looking forward to James' topknot story that he promised.
  9. Congratulations to Laurie and Val. America has spoken. I think the show gave it away within the first 10 minutes with the edits and her going last so I knew. I hope she goes onto big things. Cute bubbly and talented girl. Val kind of stole her moment with his little speech and I am surprised she did not acknowledge him as her pro and how he taught her all these weeks or the other two couples but she seemed happy and Val seemed even happier.
  10. No matter who takes it tonight there will be upset. Who knows, Calvin could take it and wouldn't that be the ultimate upset of the entire series?? Well, except for the Calvin fans. I know it is part of watching contest reality shows where the public is allowed to vote but when I see James and Val hugging on the balcony, Laurie and Val cheering James on, James saying Laurie he knows Laurie is an incredible dancer compared to himself and Peta posting both Laurie's and James' numbers for votes it makes me sad that the fans go at it the way they do. I get the fans are passionate and invested so anything less than a win for your team is devastating. But it gets ugly every year and it sort of sucks the joy out of it for me. Maybe I am the only one who feels that way. It is fun to hash it out, and listen to the different opinions so I need to adjust if I want to keep watching. I plan on being happy for whoever wins because I think Laurie brings her bubbly youthful energy and athleticism and James brings his storytelling his teachability and grace on the dance floor. All 3 couples will have danced every dance and they will all be on GMA and have equal time. I know a silver medal doesn't have the same impact as the gold...some of the most memorable celebs and dances have not been the winners but they did make finals.
  11. Not for nuthing but Craig the judge on SCD who has no problems pulling out a 3 or 4 paddle when he deems it necessary says he only gives a 10 to a dance that moves him. Go figure.
  12. One comment I read on YT that I feel describes it best as far as James' tonight. All of his dances have had a character. Except for his first dance and now his last dance. Just James being James. Emma on DWTS access commented on his arms and hands, his gracefulness and his extensions. Those were also the comments made most about his Rumba. I always feel like we don't see that from male celebs who have never danced before and I admit that might be part of why I am enamored of his dancing. Like he listens to every detail of instruction that Sharna gives him, takes note and then does it the best he can. I also see musicality and the interpretation of the music every single time in addition to his storytelling. I don't think he is the best male celeb we have had, of course not and I feel Julianne made a bone headed mistake by saying that and actually hurt him by that comment. But he has brought something extra to the dance floor this season and I think that explains his popularity because he is resonating with people. I understand YMMV.
  13. So I am hearing that for some viewers emotion in dancing is not important and should not be factored in. If you are moved by a dance it does not count because technique is all that matters? Would it ever be that way in this type of environment? It would look too much like watching PBS instead of a program like DWTS where we get to see the whole person and not just steps.
  14. Well perhaps James will get 2 latin dances for his fusion dance and then the judges can have at him. It will be cool if he nails them.
  15. This has got to be one of the closest finals and I know how many times that has been said but damn... Calvin raised his game BIGLY. Lindsey did great choreo. Laurie danced a fun fabulous freestyle. James was wonderful and I loved the story and emotion that did not veer into schmaltzy so for me it worked. It was understated and I can appreciate that. Sharna has the most creative mind when it comes to telling a story with dance and she has a partner in James who bring her visions to the dancefloor. If I were an undecided voter I would have a hard time choosing but if I look at the entire season and the freestyle as that last punctuation to a season ending, it will be James and Sharna for me.
