Trip-up may cost Donny spot in 'Dancing' finals

I WANT DONNY OSMOND & KYM TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP ON DANCING WITH THE STARS, BECAUSE THEY DESERVE TO WIN THE CONTEST.

But did you notice Joanna did the same thing last week and still received high scores? Kelly missed alot of steps in her second dance, which Donny missed none and she still scored higher. Mya had lifts in her waltz that are not allowed and was not called on them, actually getting 2 10's. Something wrong with this judging standard?

I'd like to see Donny win but in all fairness he is not the best dancer at this point in the show. Mya should win, with Joanna next and Kelly and Donny are about even in my opinion. Donny is a wonderful showman and is so funny and up-beat, he has so much going for him but this is a Dance contest and personality aside he is great but I don't think deserves to win.

FELT THAT BOTH mYA AND jOHANNA LOOKED BETTER IN THEIR RESPECTIVE PERFORMANCES. i THINK dONNY COULD PERHAPS BE THE THIRD TO MAKE IT TO THE FINALS. hE DID A GOOD JOB OVERALL AND AS ALWAYS HAD A WARM AND WINNING WAY. i HOPE HIS FAMS CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR HIM.

I think Mya and Dmitry are fabulous and will be very happy if they win. Kelly Osbourne is also one of my favorites. I do agree with the comment that the judging sometimes seem odd. One of the judges will really praise someone's performance as being great, then only give them an 8. Are they playing favorites here?

The judges are definately playing favorites. I think Donny deserves to win.

Just had enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 1:56 p.m. Nov. 17, 2009

Would all the Osmonds please just ride off into the sunset.

Well, now that we know the outcome, and if you don't, better stop reading. But I was not surprised. This is based on dancing and performance. Donny and Kelly are the better performers, not as good of dancers. Joanna and Mia are both great dancers, but they do not light a candle in personality and performance. Joanna had less personality and less dance skills than Mia. I honestly would like to go with decent dancing and great performance, I would love to see Donny and Kelly as the final two. And I just have to say, Kelly has grown and shrunk so much through this. She has matured greatly and lost about 25 pounds. Wish I was a star!!!
