Next week should prove to be most interesting with the Group dances....You can really see who isn't dancing up to par for sure.......You can see the weakest link, that is what I meant to say.

Bobby Bones won fair and square. DWTS was never a show about having the "best" dancer winning.
There were people that went home that scored 10's in previous seasons.
I consider it entertainment. Whoever wins is irrelevant to me. It's an enjoyable show to watch.

I agree wholeheartedly with the above. If it were strictly a dance competition, the entertainment value would be lost.
As long as viewers vote, fan base will always be a huge factor, often overriding pure dance ability. If judges had the only vote, the show would be boring. From a judge's perspective (particularlly Len, formerly a competition judge), the mirror ball would go to the best technical dancer, whether or not the television audience even enjoyed the dancing.
I like it the way it is, and I think the current "tweak" in the process will prevent the worst dancer from winning, even if the best dancer does not win.
There are actual dance competitions available for television viewing; this show does not pretend to be one.

A few weeks ago, you know who told his supporters to vote for Mr. Spicer.
I'm sure it has generated votes.

@Bri369 I agree. Did I miss something that explains she was acting like a little girl? I get that she was disappointed, that is understandable. But she was overreacting, in my opinion.
@World Traveler Sailors's judges scores were stellar - her emotional reaction was probably a bit of shock as well as disappointment.

Sailor just stood there covering her face. She wouldn't even talk or look at anyone. Weird
The girl who was hugging her grandma (?) seemed to be trying to make it all about herself. I could tell the pro dancer was irritated.

she is 21 years old and thrown into a "spotlight" of sorts.
not all 21 year old women are mature enough to handle that scrutiny.
she was way over the top with her crying!
my guess is is that she has lived a sheltered life and has been protected from failure.
