FALSE. He rather famously REMOVED HIS GLASSES before beginning his routines. Videos exist on YouTube, which cannot be embedded here for some reason.

So for both "The Golden Bachelor" and "The Golden Bachelorette" the ultimate emphasis was not on love and marriage, but on gold. Teresa with her successful financial career. Chock with his NYC apartment key.

"60, going on 61" is a locution usually meaning thisclose to the next birthday. I found my term, speaking of words, to describe Joan: brittle. Even her annoying voice sounds like it's on its metaphorical last legs. What can I say? Joan and Chock (I could not abide saying that name, sorry, not sorry) seem more Country Club/Golf/Cruises/"Real Housewives" style than is my milieu.

I turned 75 on Election Day. Chock is only 60?! He exudes "Old Uncool Man" to me! Like Burma Shave and Brylcreem old!

It is way past time when Joan stops getting choked up when speaking of her late husband. Get a grip (says the widow me).

I'm rooting for Stephen, even if unrealistically, because I want to see him parlay his athletic success into as much publicity for men's gymnastics and as much money for himself as he can. I know Stephen can make a good living as an electrical engineer, but isn't Show Biz more fun?!

Wait--- The long-haired DWTS troupe dancer is ROMAN from SYTYCD?! Egads, I loved him on that show! I had better take another gander at him, considering I've been hyper-critical of him on DWTS!

Maybe TPTB thought the show needed to compete with "So You Think You Can Dance," which is (seems to me) basically all Contemporary.

SWAP?? Is that from the Preview, or is it a Spoiler?

Concur with each point. "Mom's Basement" is ONLY the cliché about a LOSER! Juan is gorgeous! And ambitious, so he will not be pleased at all when his New Age Go With The Flow wife quits her job (preview).

I like the show, but not so much this season. I think I watch mainly to see Amsterdam!

IMO, in no way was Danny's Argentine Tango better than Stephen's AT the other week. Danny did not dance enough to merit a 10, especially from the usually hyper-critical CAI. 🤨 Up to tonight I will say that Stephen's outfits have not done him any favors. Sasha has a weird "Seth Green on a manic day" face. Stephen was AWESOME!! Very stalker-monster! 👹👏👏👏 Oh, my, I do not care for the Charlie Manson dancer Derek had as his exemplar. 😱 Stephen and Rylee do not deserve on merit to be tied for second-last.

I fear that not only is Stephen not progressing, but that he isn't being given dance styles that would encourage progress. The Jive and the Quickstep already? Plus, he wasn't nearly ready for a Paso Doble. I don't see how anything on "Hair Metal Night" can get him beyond 30 (and how he received two 8s, I don't know). Stephen needs a Viennese Waltz to show smooth lines, not staccato moves.

Congratulations to Richard. I thought his voice was on the thin side, but people still love Journey, so....! I also think the show treated the girl with the dog DISGRACEFULLY, ignoring her COMPLETELY after Richard was declared the winner. Not one hug, not one comment, not one acknowledgement from anyone. She was left awkwardly standing there.

I'm baaaaack! And so is MAFSUK SEASON 9! I'm watching on YouTube on my Smart TV! Better than on a cellphone!
