Tombergerron_samanthaharris_dancing Tonight has to be one of the most shocking eliminations I've ever seen on Dancing with the Stars. It actually might be top on the list. Seriously, I'm not just saying that. Read on and prepare to have your mind blown.

Beware the spoilers!

Jane Seymour couldn't make it to the show because she's come down with a bad case of something resembling food poisoning. Ew. That can't be fun.

The encore, of course, was the group dance. With everyone except Jane. Tony used Julianne during what was supposed to be the solo lift portion and danced by himself the rest of time. Upon seeing it again, I also really liked Jennie and Derek's lift sequence.

Next up is a Barry Manilow performance (a song I assume is called "They Dance") with Cheryl Burke and Louis Van Amstel dancing. I'm quite glad Louis wasn't one of the pros this season. He always kind of rubbed me the wrong way...there's something slightly smarmy about him. But, smarminess aside, he and Cheryl did a great job.

During the first round of letting people off the hook, Mel B. and...Jane Seymour are safe? Shocking! Even to Tony, who's left to celebrate by himself (at least until Maksim joined in). Okay. So I still think Marie is in the bottom but now I'm not so sure who else will be there. I'm pretty sure it won't be Cameron...perhaps Helio? Or Jenny? I doubt it'll be Sabrina what with all the pre-teen girls calling in for her.

The next sequence is a preview of the show Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann. What's cool about it is that they're looking for singers AND dancers. No singing for this performance, but they danced to "Weapon of Choice" by Fatboy Slim (which the vocalists did a great job with, surprisingly - whoever the new dudes are, they oughta keep them). I was very impressed by the number and man, they suckered me in. I'm totally watching it. Huzzah for another dancing show!

Barry Manilow pops up again to perform "Mandy" with Jonathan and Anna dancing to it. I wasn't going to mention it, but really...um...Barry should have had one less face lift. He's got cat eyes, and that ain't right.

Next up to waste our time is a segment with the celebs asking the judges questions (what they asked is fairly irrelevant) followed by a fairly lengthy bit about how everyone has bonded.

Now we get to find out who's in the dreaded Red Light of Doom. Finally. Helio and Julianne - safe. Cameron and Edyta - not safe. Color me surprised. Jennie and Derek - safe. Marie and Jonathan - safe?!? What?!? It's Sabrina and Mark. She looks like she's going to cry, poor thing. Bruno thinks it's madness that they're in the bottom - I blame "the Simon Cowell Effect," meaning those who get the meanest comments live to fight another day.

And, unfortunately, Sabrina goes home. The crowd boos, Carrie Ann is crying, everyone on stage is stunned, and I call B.S.

Barry Manilow sings "My Eyes Adore You" to play them out. Thank goodness it wasn't something more depressing.

Okay. So. Yeah. This is me, speechless. And a bit disgusted.

Discuss amongst yourselves.

More like DISGUST amongst yourselves. These results are damned hysterical, BANANAS even! This girl was supposed to make the finale, what happened America? Seriously, Marie safe? Jane safe? This just goes to show that you HAVE to vote, everytime. Poor girl, I could see her mouthing to her partner, "I'm sorry, I'm so soory." Not your fault, Sabrina.

I was shocked, but in a way, not surprised too much because on the boards at Dancing with the Stars, there seemed to be less and less Sabrina fans. And those that were Sabrina fans were depending upon the supposed "m***es of teen girls" to vote for her and Mark. I was surprised to see Cameron in the bottom two. I hope this wakes up America. VOTE, PEOPLE! :)

I'm really at a lose for words about the show tonight. Sabrina out and that awful Marie still there???? I just don't know what to say. I don't even want to watch anymore. I voted but as usual I never vote for Marie and I did vote for Sabrina. Several times but the results are what they are and at this moment I'm done with the show. I like Cameron and Helio but for a 90 minute show I mean 92 minutes they will have a lot of filling to do and as stated I'm not very interested enough to watch. Way to go America.....

I was shocked but I'm glad that Sabrina Bryan is gone because I was sick to death of seeing her and Mark practically fornicating on the screen. Seriously, he's supposed to be a professional dancer. Does he constantly kiss ALL his partners like he does Sabrina? His arms are always around her, he was rubbing her back while they were in the red light of doom, she called him "baby" and he's constantly kissing her. It's just so unprofessional. No real surprise that she's gone though. Not just because they're both tramps but also because she doesn't have much of a fanbase. Certainly not compared to the others.

Even better - instead of voting like lunatics (because putting people on their honor to vote only for the best dancers CLEARLY doesn't work) I believe America's vote should only count for a third or a quarter of the total score. I actually found myself crying both out of sadness and shock when Sabrina and Mark were sent home instead of staying right through to the end where they should have, but also I was really ****ed off. That was just TOTALLY wrong. I hate to point to anyone else that should have gone home because for the most part the remaining couples have done and are doing an amazing job, and I can appreciate them all for their different strengths, BUT of all the couples remaining those 2 were certainly among the least deserving the boot. They scored in the top consistently, throughout the season, and the fact that her fan base wasn't rabid enough shouldn't mean that they go home. This happens way too often on this show, including earlier in this season, when Wayne Newton stayed more than one round; sorry, 'legend' (and I use the term very loosely) he may be to some, but he is NO dancer. I'm getting really sick of this show being more popularity contest than dance contest, and I don't think I'm going to be watching again, unless they change the way the voting is tabulated. Clearly America doesn't know an excellent dancer from a good one, and we need to take some of that power away from those who are just using all their votes for their favorites to keep them in longer, instead of really looking and voting for those who deserve the votes. Shame on you ABC, and on those 'stuffed the ballot box'; Sabrina and Mark deserved to stay.

Are you kidding me?? This might be more shocking than Chris Daughtry or Jennifer Hudson getting ousted on AI. Sabrina has been by far the best dancer all season. She's one of the only people I actually looked forward to watch dance each week. And Marie's not even in the bottom 2?? This is truly ridiculous.

I REALLY don't know what to think. I want to put this question out there: Does anybody think there might be something similar to season one's dance off coming after Tuesday's results show?

Everyone onstage, the judges and Tom and Samantha seemed too shocked. I actually think that she was hurt by the overabundance of praise that she recieved from all three judges. Personally, that's why I never voted for her. I read the ABC boards and saw that she had dance training so maybe that could have contributed to the vote count tonight too.

This is the same scenario that will prevent Hillary from becoming president. Oh, and this is the second week without Kimmel. All is right in the world

To Tamara: Grest review, I failed to mentioned that earlier, my bad :) To Francine Fishpaw - U R BANANAS, and a repressed conservative prudy-tudy. Fornicating on screen? BANANAS! I saw comp***ion, love, mutual admiration and respect. In guess you missed it, he was enamored of her - her spirit, her talent, her drive. There is a REAL connection beyond the dancing, in fact, it informed the dancing and made it more compelling. Your comment is a pathetic attempt to justify an agregeous travesty. Fornicating? Get a frakkin' clue. Oh, and maybe take a dance cl*** and learn to channel that 'tude into something fruitful, before your repression drives you to the top of a tower with an AK-47. Fornicating, indeed.
