REVIEW:  Chris & Witney

Chris & Witney:

For their first, Week 08 routine, America gave Chris Soules and his partner, Witney Carson, a Contemporary to "Lay Me Down" by Sam Smith.

This was such a beautiful dance, and it was, without a doubt, Chris' best one yet!

Once more displaying his now familiar "graceful side", Chris' dancing was smooth, flowing, and dramatic ... perfect for the quietly-passionate and emotional piece expertly-choreographed by his partner, Witney!

And we cannot forget those amazing lifts! ... "Prince Farming" just effortlessly-hoisted Witney up there as if there was nothing to it!  Brav-O, Chris!  That was extremely well done!!

Nice Lift, Chris!

And I'm not the only one who thought so, this fantastic performance also caused Judge Julianne Hough to gush,  " ... I gotta say Chris, to me, you won the award for most improved this Season! ... "

" ... Chris, by far, your best dance! ... " expounded Judge Carrie Ann Inaba, " ... Everything you did was fluid and unstopped, the lifts were astounding!  I'm so impressed with you, well done!"

Even DWTS' resident grouch, Head Judge Len Goodman, had nothing but nice things to say:  "Well, I've been a bit of a 'Meany' with you, Chris; but, I knew it was in there somewhere, and tonight you come out, performed it great.  Your best dance so far, well done!".

Yes, yes, I agree:  nothing but good things all around!  So, uh, just a quick, little question for you, WHERE ARE ALL THE 10 PADDLES FOR THIS DANCE!?!  Two 9's and two 8's, are you crazy!?!  Where, in the World, is the FAIR scoring, because that's where this dance should be!  It was a Contemporary, was it not?  It was graceful, moving, and in every way, 100% lovely, was it not?  Then, c'mon guys, give it up already, you're killing me here!

Chris & Witney perform a beautiful Contemporary Dance.
