I was a little worried Whitney or The Miz might lose an eye...

Hasn’t there already been a dance to this song? Derek & Bindi maybe?

Yes! They were great. The song cover was Horriying 

[scenicbyway]

I thought the Miz’s Paso was kinda slow. Ha! Derek actually said he was impressed no ones eye got poked out.

Never thought of "Wicked Game" as a song for a horror-themed night, but in that context, especially that cover, it worked. Great dance ,too. 

Props to the costume department, too, those two are rocking that whole Hellraiser look. I've never seen that movie, it looks incredibly trippy.

It's defintely Trippy lol. I enjoyed it 

[Annber03]

I learned about Devil's Night through a "Criminal Minds" episode once :p. Sounds like a pretty wild thing. 

I'm also with Kenya on spiders. Don't like them. At all. Nope. 

Odd song choice, given the theme of the movie they were dancing to (I could think of songs about spiders/bugs that would fit better), but I quite liked the dance itself :). 

[scenicbyway]

Kenya’s dance was awkward? Maybe because it looks like she’s leading Brandon?

There was no energy to their dance. The whole dance felt robotic and awkward.

Jojo and Jenna's dance was so much fun.

[Annber03]

Wow. 

That was like a creepy marionette sort of dance. I really, really liked that.

Really, really impressive choreography by Jenna and execution by them both. Kinda like they’re both professional dancers, huh?

Jojo has this in the bag

Yeah it sucks. Hoping she's a shock boot later 

The tongue bath for Jojo the professional dancer 🙄🙄

Disappointed Cody and Cheryl aren't dancing to a song in the movie "American Psycho"

[ams1001]

I did not particularly enjoy the movie American Psycho, nor did I particularly enjoy that dance.

Cheryl seems like she has a little more energy tonight, at least...though she still seems to be tring to catch her breath.

I was gonna say, I've not seen that movie (I haven't seen any of the movies people danced to thus far tonight, actually), but I know that there's musical references in it. I know there's a whole thing with Huey Lewis in there. So yeah, that would've made sense. 

Again, though, good dance. Also, the stuff with Cody and his boyfriend in the pre-dance segment was cute. 

[scenicbyway]

Cody’s posture is weird? Like he’s hunching his shoulders? There’s really no “connection” with Cheryle.

[Josh371982]

Shouldve been dancing to "Hip to be Square" or "Sussuido" not whatever that was

[CraftyHazel]

I don’t even care that JoJo’s a dancer; she and Jenna are so much fun to watch.

I loved Cody and Cheryl tonight.

I did not enjoy Kenya and Brandon, although I don’t know why.

The Miz was pretty good.

Oh yeah I haven't watched the whole thing but I know the character just loves Music like Huey Lewis and Phill Collins/Genesis 

[kitcloudkicker]

Cody’s dance was better but there’s still something odd to me about his posture - like he needs to bring his shoulders down. Is Cheryl just not catching it? I feel like he’d be better served by a different partner, I haven’t been super impressed with her choreography this season.

I also don’t know that I’d want my partner to dedicate an American Psycho themed dance to me. “Thanks babe, how about you save it for the next one though, yeah?”

I can't enjoy Jojo and Jenna when she can do no wrong in Judges and Production eyes. Just fast forward to the end already lol

LOL, I thought about that, too. How...romantic :p? 

[scenicbyway]

9’s for Cody? Really? I thought 8’s at best.

Right? Tyra said it was awesome or something and I was like, "Is it, though?"

[Josh371982]

Jimmie and Emma paying tribute to A Quiet Place? Ummmmm should there be any music?

Also Coming next week listen as the Band Murders Songs from Queen

Took me a bit to figure out the song. (It's Say Something; of course.)

[ProfCrash]

Jimmie’s dance was phenominal.

[CraftyHazel]

I love Jimmie…

Didn't Peta and Nyle do a contemporary with no music, once? To show what it was always like for him?

Ah. Maze.  Ing.  Hard to believe Hayley hadn't done ballroom before becoming a pro.  

[Josh371982]

That song doesn't fit a movie like "The Purge"

Seriously, the song choices tonight are very odd. 

ETA: Case in point..."Hound Dog"? For Cujo? Really?

They did part of a Paso with no music. The dance starts about 2:15 and the silent part starts about 3:20.

Yes very odd. 

[Fostersmom]

Really Derrick? You don't know why she was in the bottom 2 last week? No guesses? 

I missed the first half of the show, I just tuned in. Her dance was good.... but I really might have been swayed because I'm obsessed with the song they danced to. It warms my 90's music loving heart. It reminds me of so many songs I loved in the 90s. 

[Josh371982]

Why do I feel like the Audience is being a bit scolded for one of the Production favs  being in Bottom 2

Melora's dad was in Cujo? Thats cool

[Fostersmom]

What the mismatched hell is this? 

[Annber03]

Melora's dad was in Cujo? Huh. 

Credit to them for making the song work with the dance/theme, though...even if they look a bit more like they've stepped out of Night of the Living Dead instead of Cujo :p. 

[Josh371982]

I liked Cujo. I just felt so Sorry for Poor Cujo😫

[kitcloudkicker]

I don’t know how you give Melora an 8 when you gave Cody all 9s. I felt like she seemed like she lost a little bit of energy towards the end but it was waaaay better than Cody.

[Josh371982]

Is Beetlejuice being Honored tonight? If so I need the Beetlejuice theme, Day-O or Jump in the Line DAMMIT!!

Probably trying to appease his fanbase. He might eliemate one of the better dancers for all we know 

[Josh371982]

Jojo could fall over on the floor and she'd get a 10
