Dancing with The Stars:God Bless America (4/18/11)

With all the crappy weather in the midwest this week, it was nice to relax and actually feel like it was summer for a little while with a patrotic theme, most songs you never hear unless it's the 4th of July. Overall a good night, and it gets easier and easier to get through since the show was only a hour and a half last night.

Ralph/Karina
Dance: Samba
Song: Sweet Home Alabama
Judge's Score: 22
My Rating: 4
Thoughts: Nice cowboy hat Ralph! I love the personality and gimmick in this dance. Way to fit line dancing into a ballroom dance.

Chericho
Dance: Viennese Waltz
Song: America The Beautiful
Judge's Score: 26
My Rating: 5
Thoughts: Y2J is looking good in his suit. Very good. Beginning to end well executed. They so have AMAZING chemistry.

Petra/Dmitry
Dance: Quickstep
Song: Viva Las Vegas
Judge's Score: 22
My Rating: 3.5
Thoughts: Not a huge fan of the Vegas gimmick with the table. Seemed forced.The dance was good but not great by any means.

Romeo/Chelsie
Dance: Foxtrot
Song: New York, New York
Judge's Score: 26
My Rating: 4.5
Thoughts: Very smooth dance. I liked it a lot.

Hines/Kym
Dance: Rumba
Song: God Bless the USA (Personal note of annoyance: #1 the name of this song is God Bless the USA NOT Proud to Be An American. #2 What they couldn't get a guy to sing the song so they didn't have to change the words? That really annoyed me.)
Judge's Score: 27
My Rating: 5
Thoughts: The dance was fantastic! From beginning to end it was very romantic.

Kristie/Maksim (Rehearsal note: John Travolta as the dance doctor? That was just funny!)
Dance: Foxtrot
Song: American Woman
Judge's Score: 23
My Rating: 5
Thoughts: Maks rips his shirt off and the ladies go nuts! No fall or shoe coming off this week so that's good. I loved the whole attitude, very rockstar. Amazing.

1000th Competitive Dance in DWTS History (and they know how to celebrate!)
Kendra/Louis
Dance: Foxtrot
Song: Yankee Doodle Dandy
Judge's Score: 22
My Rating: 4
Thoughts: Definitely her best dance of the season. A lot of energy and a lot of fun to watch.

Chelsea/Mark
Dance: Samba
Song: Party in the USA
Judge's Score: 26
My Rating: 4.5
Thoughts: I like it better when they break the rules. This was a good dance nonetheless.
