    I've noticed, and I can post this here, that last year they talked about matching up their dancers with the stars, you know, giving them someone that would bring out their best. This year, it's the same basic categories.

    Edyta gets the sexy guy (Cameron Mathison, Jason Taylor)
    Tony gets the chunkier girl (Marie Osmond, Marissa Jaret Winokur)
    Derek gets the skinny actress (Jennie Garth, Shannon Elizabeth)
    Kym gets the clumsy guy (Mark Cuban, Penn Jillette)


    I mean, it's not perfect...but like Derek has gotten two really lithe women who can obviously learn to control their bodies. Tony is not so lucky, so his dances won't have the kicks and the leaps and the tosses the others can do.

    Just seems unfair is all.

    Whew ... that's good analysis ... except that wasn't Marie with Jonathan?

    Holy crap, you're completely right. Tony had Jane Seymour.

    Erase that one then. :D

    I'm pretty sure they were kidding about having to stay in the same house, though, I'm pretty sure there would be some blood shed if they did. :) :D ijag wouldn't be the only one outside waiting to kill Ken and Barbie.

    You can also add Sarah Evans to Tony (she was nobody's fat girl, but neither was she skinny ... though he also was with Stacy Kiebler), Jerry Springer to Kym and also Joey Lawrence (who might not count as sexy for all that I know) to Edyta. My wife and I have talked about the type-casting ... certain types of people clicking with certain dancers.

    Now, I am going to skulk away from this thread, my Mancard hidden where nobody can take it from me.

    I didn't really start watching until last year, so I couldn't weigh in on any other partnerships.

    Too late ... I already lasered it with my X-ray vision.

    Poor Tony ... I can't imagine how tough it must be to get stuck with the fat chick. I mean, she's trying her best and all ... her paso doble was passable but still ... lifts are tough, throws are hard and she just can't move as smoothly as the others ... too much gettin' in the way and all.

    I officially fucking hate this fucking show if Priscilla is in the bottom two and fat girl isn't.

    Oh, I know ... he is liquid sex ... I love it!

    We're down to the best, though. It's going to be hard to watch the really good ones get cut!

    I've never seen him move like he did in that practice montage. Lord I'm getting all twitterpated just thinking of it.

    And I think it goes like this:
    1. Kristi Yamaguchi
    2. Mario
    3. Jason Taylor
    4. Marissa Jaret Winokur (sp?)
    5. Cristian de la Fuente
    6. Shannon Elizabeth

    But really, anyone can move from 4-6. I think they're all pretty equal.
