Team Dances – Review of DWTS Season 22, Week 07


DWTS Season 22, Week 07

REVIEW:  Team Dances 



In an always gratifying display of Fabulous Teamwork, DWTS Seasonal Round of Team Dancing came and went once more with few surprises, but a whole lotta fun!
 

Team Beyoncé:

Hmmm.  An overall 
disastrously UNDERWHELMING affair – And an inordinately Out of Sync one at that! - this (Dare I say?) seemingly PHONED IN Chorographical Wreck of a Performance offered very FEW pleasurable aspects, including (and tragically LIMITED to!) some sub-par nods to the ever-thrilling, musical antics displayed by its Singer inspiration, Beyoncé.

It does seem worth noting, however, that the Individual Team of Paige & Mark unarguably killed it, whether dancing together, in a Group, or apart,

and that the suddenly-Progressive Duo, Ginger &Valergo saw some much, MUCH LESS definite highlights themselves!

Jodie & Keo were more or less impressive as well, although neither Jodie nor Ginger did very well with the In Sync Group Segments.

Kim Fields (now prepare yourselves for the Facts of Reality!) is, most unfortunately, not even worth discussing, as little to no actual Dancing took place with this Celebrity during the whole of the Routine.

All in all (and with respect to the gal(s) who ACTUALLY did well … <Loud Cough> PAIGE!), I found this Dance to be a Mood-downing, Epic Fail of a Routine, and was very glad for the “8”s which it received from the show's Panel Judges.

<Rubbing Temples in Disappointment>. Ugh!  C'mon ladies, now get in formation and prove to me that you’ve got some coordination, ‘cause I’ve yet to see it!
 



Team James Brown:

Ow!  I feel good, like I knew that I would now!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting the night's all-Male Freestyle Dance and pos-o-tiv-ly KILLING it, it’s the TERRIFIC Teaming of Von &Witney, Nyle & Peta, Wanya & Lindsay, and Antonio & Sharna!!

I mean to say I absolutely LOVED this Dance, its Crazy-Cool Choreography (Splendid job, Ladies!!), and its every little STELLAR Detail!

From the “Wow!”-inspiring Antics of Antonio,

who, btw – Did anyone else notice? – “received” his Beat and Sense of Rhythm from an “obliging” Wanya!

“So nice, SO nice!!” (get it?) and “10”s all around!!  … Wait, ... only “9”s?!!  What up, Judges?!

Of course, I guess it would make sense to let Team James Brown’s follow up Performance of Team Beyonce have a chance to one up their predecessors with the earning of all “10”s; but in hindsight, what a waste!



“Well, you know, the whole night, for me, has been amazing!” exclaimed Head Judge, Len Goodman, following the Performance. “The dancing, the standard, has been great; and, when I look at you people, you’ve not only had to learn your Personal Dance, but you’ve had to come out, work tight, get it together.  I salute the lot of you!”

Team James Brown celebrates after their
incredible performance!
