Forgot to log off last night!  It's hard to understand why talent people do what they do.  Actors, producers and writers get fired for incompetence and then get hired by another studio to do exactly the same thing they were fired for.  Realistically, the casting couch is still very much alive and Miss Hough has proven that she will do anything to get a career (even though she fails at all of them).  I do think the contract thing is  probably the reason she got the judging job (plus anything else she could pull off).  I know I sound crass, but it's fact that everyone should recognize.  It's also a business filled with nepotism.  There are many super talented people who never make it, while semi-talented ones do because of who they know, or who they are related to.  Having said that, it was a total slap in the face to Maks for ABC to submit clips of Derek and Amy for Emmy consideration.  I don't think it had anything to do with Meryl, it was all about zinging Maks.  They created the bad boy image and when he proved, with Meryl's help, he wasn't that guy, they didn't like it.  They continue to want golden boy to win everything.  I'm totally disgusted with this show.  I don't know about the rest of  you, but I will not be watching season 19.  The ratings went up season 18 and they are now adding Tuesday back in.  Why did people watch season 19?  Maks and Meryl  It will be fitting if the show tanks this season.  I honestly hope it will.  I love to dance and love watching dance shows, but I can't support the Derek and J show. 

I agree with everything you said here. I would like for Val to win, and then the show can tank! Don't know if it's worth it, though.

 
With you on that also, Ollie.  I think that Maks completely bamboozled their stereotype of him--and then became a man in love with his partner that we all saw develop and grow--and completely upstaged Derek and Amy!!!  Such is life, as they say.  You cannot predict life....but it was wonderful to see the "real" Maks, the more mature man, and to know what a woman can do to a man when their paths cross and the stars are aligned, so to speak. 

May their lives grow together and may their partnership in every aspect flourish!


I absolutely love him, and he’s an incredible person. We have this friendship that I have no doubt in my mind is a life-long friendship.  Getting a chance to know him away from training for Dancing With the Stars, I think we've gotten a chance to know each other in a different way, which of course just makes you closer.

Who is he anyway? I know he's a dancer, but is he part of Maks' family or just a friend?

Booky, are you on? I think we are the only two. I got up so late today -- 10:30!!!!!!

Hi annie!  Yes, I'm still on.  Playing catch up as usual.  I've been so busy lately that I usually only have time to pop in and out to read and post here.

I do that too, sometimes. Have you ever read a post and wondered what is being discussed even though you went through the ones before it? That happens to me often, so I go back to see what I missed. It works out best when we are all on at the same time. Not possible, though, with all our schedules.

salacaminarMy Photo Essay:  One of these is not like the otherWeek 3, 7, 8 (twice) and GMA Party

One thing was obvious and I don't care how many videos you watch or photos you look at:  whatever "it" was was mutual.   Never ever do you see Meryl looking the least bit ill at ease with all of Maks' touching, hugging, and kissing.   Often, she grabbed his hands and pulled them around her herself.   And she did as much rubbing of hands as he did.   Even that one time when he put his hand a little bit too far down, she just pulled it up without missing a beat and with a sort of bemused smile on her face.

By Week 3, it wasn't enough for him to have his arm around her shoulders.   He had to be behind her with both his arms completely surrounding her.  And she was okay with that.   When she hugged him, it was so elegant to watch the way she placed both hands around his neck as far as she could.  

It was probably lucky that he is so much taller.   He could kiss her all he wanted in full view and there wasn't too much worry about him missing his mark and hitting her lips on camera, except in the dances, of course.   Cheeks, side of head, top of head, whatever was within reach.   And in the finale, they got so long.  I esp. remember his long, very emphatic kiss after the Argentine tango.   Not to mention the freestyle, and the kiss after their scores for the freestyle when he put his hand on the back of her head.  

I so want to see a candid pic of them now, not a posed one.   Or better yet, some video.   I want to see if they're still that touchy-feely.  (I'm sure they are.)

None of the other couples did anything like that.   And I can't recall any in past seasons that ever did that, even those that went on to date.  

Break over!  Back to work!

I just love these "which ones are not like the other" photos.  lol  Maks and Meryl are always the only couple with their arms wrapped around each other.  You never even see Peta and James that way, even though the show tried to promote them as the pair most likely to become a romantic couple.

Tango, I just love reading your descriptions of the chemistry and physical contact between M&M.  It gives me chills!

Serge is part of the fam...a very close friend of Maks'.  If you think this photo is gross, you should see the ones of him and Kirstie Allie in France.  He is actually holding hands with her.  I like Serge, but he strikes me as being a bit of a fame whore.

Re: Be Happy and Smile

OBSERVATION!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have read that sometimes Meryl wore one or more of Maks' bracelets.When they did the VW, I noticed a bracelet on Maks' left wrist. He was wearing only one, and it looked like a leather bracelet with a blue oval-shaped stone in the middle of it. When I saw it, during the critiques of the judges, this flash went through my mind that I had seen it on Meryl, but I couldn't remember where. Do any of you know? I didn't go back through all her dances to see, but this morning I was watching the GMA after party on YouTube (again), and there it was on Meryl!  Maks and Meryl were being interviewed outside (on the stage set up for the DWTS couples),sitting on chairs. When I saw it on Maks during the VW, I thought how cute it would be if they declared to each other that they are dating and decided to wear these matching bracelets (unless there is only one). DANG! This sounds like high school!!!!!!!!!!! When I was in school, during the Renaissance, and a couple decided to "Go Steady" (anyone else remember that term???), the boy gave the girl his ID bracelet to wear if he had one. Otherwise, his letter sweater or jacket, if he were into sports. Those ID bracelets were quite the thing and a great gift for a guy's birthday, Christmas, etc.

Friendship is a priceless gift that can't be bought or sold, its value is far greater than a mountain made of gold.
May this FriendSHIP always have wind in its sails and a sunrise on the horizon.
