DWTS Elimination Shocker! (Part 2) – S20, Wk09


Nastia & Derek Eliminated
on Dancing With The Stars!
Season 20, Week 09 (05/12/15)




NOTE:  This is a "Part 2"


< Blinking eyes, slowly the ceiling above comes into focus >

Where am I?  Why am I lying on the floor?

< Sitting up on elbows and looking around in a confused daze >

And what’s that noise? … Oh!  It’s Castle playing on my T.V. …

< leaning up to switch it off >

What happened?  The last thing I can recall is watching DWTS’ Season 20 Semifinals Elimination and … Oh, yeah … Nastia & Derek were eliminated! … Ai-yi-yi, ... what up?!  Of all the stupid … wait, ... if I’m going to gripe about this, I should at least be writing …

< Seating myself back in my chair and fumbling clumsily for my keyboard > … 

So ... Nastia Liukin and her professional dancing partner, Derek Hough, were eliminated this week from Dancing With The Stars and therefore will not be advancing to the Finals … this totally stinks!

Of all the stupid and idiotic eliminations this show has seen, this one has got to take the cake!  Well … this one and the one where Charlie White and his partner Sharna Burgess were not allowed to advance past the Semifinals in Season 18 …

Nastia & Derek’s dancing (and choreography) has been nothing less than perfect all season long!

Now, granted, of all the remaining celebrities in Season 20, "Nasty" Nastia did seem to have the worst personality (It’s a wonder she doesn’t just trip all the time, what with her nose constantly up in the air like that!);  and that, no doubt, is what cost them the votes needed to get to the Finals next week; but, c’mon, you cannot argue that Nastia’s dancing was superb!

Then again, how can you honestly say that Noah Galloway does not deserve to be in the finals?  He is an American hero who has sacrificed an arm and a leg fighting for our country … and, oh yeah! … he is also a really good dancer!

And what about Rumer Willis?  That girl has been kicking some serious Ballroom @$$ since Week 01!  Plus, she is really, super likable!

And don’t even get me started on Riker Lynch … he’s a regular @$$-kicking, show-stealing, born-to-dance “Hough”!  And he’s extremely likable, too!

Would it have killed the show to have 4 Finalists this season (Just like they did last season) and not just 3?!?

< Sigh! >  I guess in the end, when you think about it, there really wasn’t a great way for this Semifinals to go … it still stinks, though!

As a final note, if they had to go, there  certainly was no better way for Nastia & Derek to end their DWTS journey then with (what very well may have been Derek's last dance, as a competing Pro, on the show ... < not gonna cry, not gonna cry! > ... )  their moving Viennese Waltz with Len Goodman, (who also may NOT be coming back next Season - - okay, now I really am gonna cry! ... Don't go Lenny!) ... one of the best, most memorable dances on Dancing With The Stars, EVER!!

 Absolutely beautiful!
