Dancing with the Stars 6: Week 9 Loser
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Features,
On last night’s episode of Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the four semifinalists had the opportunity to showcase their improvement. Their dances - chosen at random - were all repeats of styles they had done before.
By night’s end:
- Jason Taylor got a 28 for his Foxtrot (formerly 22) and a 27 for his Paso Doble (26). Total = 55.
- Cristián de la Fuente was coincidentally assigned the same two performances he attempted the night of his injury. Despite horrible flashbacks, he earned a 27 for his Viennese Waltz (25) and a 29 for his Samba (21). His total of 56 topped the Miami Dolphin.
- Underdog Marissa Jaret Winokur scored a 26 for her Quickstep (21) and a 26 for the Rumba (25). Total - 52.
- Kristi Yamaguchi racked up a 28 for her Jive (down from her perfect 30) and a 29 for her Tango (27). Her total of 57 was the best of the evening.

Monday Ratings: Weak Premiere for American Gladiators
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, House, Medium, The Bachelor, Ratings,
Why NBC chose to bring back American Gladiators at this time is beyond me. Had the show debuted after the latest round of finales, it might have fared better than fourth place. Meanwhile, ABC was another winner with the viewers while FOX was tops in the demos.
8pm
- Dancing with the Stars (18.3 million, 4.2/11 in 18-49) was the night’s most-watched show.
- Bones (9.4 million, 3.2/9) grew by 1.3 million.
- Britney Spears helped draw 700,000 more to How I Met Your Mother (9 million, 3.8/9); The Big Bang Theory (7.9 million, 2.9/9) tacked on another 300,000.
- The American Gladiators debut (4.9 million, 1.9/5) did about 1/2 as well as Deal or No Deal.
- Approximately 2.6 million tuned in to hear Serena’s big secret on Gossip Girl (1.2/3).

Dancing with the Stars 6: Week 9
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Editorial, Features,
Last Monday on Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the top two contenders (Jason and Kristi) both made large steps backwards. Meanwhile, Cristián proved a silly little injury wasn’t going to hold him back.
In this week’s semi-finals, the remaining four celebrities performed two familiar styles (one Latin, one Ballroom) that were chosen at random. They were also banned from doing more lifts. Who demonstrated improvement…and who repeated their mistakes? Read on!

Will Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough Get Their Own Show?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Rumors,
Although their romance was only confirmed less than a month ago, there’s already talk about a future reality project for Dancing with the Stars’ Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough. Apparently someone thinks their relationship actually has a future!
According to Extra, another former DWTS competitor is interested in following the two lovebirds as they pursue their other interests. The production company belonging to Melanie Brown and her husband may soon have cameras focused on Shannon as she tries to land acting gigs and on Derek as he works on his music career. (He and Mark Ballas have their own band called Almost Amy.) The show would, of course, also feature the couple’s blossoming romance.
Seriously. Shouldn’t the Spice Girl wait to see where this whole thing goes before she makes any business decisions like that? Quite honestly, I though Sabrina Bryan and Ballas had a better chance of staying together…and they just broke up.

Yesterday’s edition of Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 turned out to be another jaw-dropping event:
- Kristi’s Samba earned the skater another 26. (Her first was last week.) That’s her lowest score to date.
- Jason Taylor racked up a 23 for his interpretation of the Samba. He hasn’t seen that number since Week 3.
- Cristián accumulated three 10’s and finished with his best total ever. More importantly, the injured actor somehow managed to beat both Jason and Kristi!

(You can view TV Envy’s Post-Strike Television Schedule here.)
MONDAY (5/5)
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9:00): (The script was written by CSI scribes.) “George Eads (CSI) has a cameo in which a CSI team investigates a death at Charlie’s house.” I know Charlie wanted to stop Denise’s reality show, but this is quite a sweeps stunt.
- House (FOX, 9pm): “House believes that an actor (Jason Lewis) on his favorite soap is seriously ill after observing his symptoms on television, so he decides to intervene.” If I had known something like that would work, I would have kidnapped Smith Jerrod a long time ago.
- Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30pm): “Sam’s affair with Todd continues while he’s still seeing a clueless Chloe.” I’m sorry—why doesn’t Sam just kick her out of her apartment again? She does own the thing, doesn’t she?
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): “Alexx is stunned when her son is the prime suspect in a murder investigation, and any help she offers could prove costly.” Buh-bye, Khandi!
