Overall this was not a great night. Especially disappointing ballroom by non-ballroom couples; usually they are not THAT bad.

Because books.

I liked that last number a lot, but I wasn't as impressed with the "I Will Always Love You" routine as the judges were. The song is so manipulative now, I think it overshadows anything set to it.

Why do they want Eliana to dance? I think she's incredible, and much as I like Cyrus, she's holding their routines together on her own.

They have a hard pick with the girls, I think. I think (I hope) she's going to knock their socks off - she's one of my favorites.

Amber loses points for dancing to Lana Del Rey. Faugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes.

I'm going to be crushed whichever girl they pick. Ugh.

Stupid America! And Nigel agrees.

Oh, god, the room to grow line.

I knew they would cut Amber.

Are they going to cut couples every week? It's absurd.

Lindsay should have gone home. In my mind, anyway.

They play a "rough neighborhood" for Brandon, but I am pretty sure he has an undergraduate degree in engineering. [Edit: not that that precludes him being from a rough neighborhood, but that's not where he's at at this point in his life.] I really liked him; classy guy. Not enough of a "room to grow" narrative; he knows who he is (he's 27.)
