An Elimination Shocker!

So long Sabrina. Sabrina Bryan, Mark Ballas by Carol Kaelson/ABC

Episode Recap: "Elimination Number Six"

I am speechless! I think I can still hear the boos resonating from the TV as we just learned Sabrina Bryan is going home. She was pegged to be one of the final two in this competition. What happened? I didn't think her latest dance was enough reason for her to go home this week. The rest of the dancers better stay on their game. Sidenote: after reading your comments about a possible romance between her and dance partner Mark, I have to say I agree. Did you catch the "baby" and "I love you"? Hmm...

I was also shocked - shocked - that Jane Seymour was announced safe second. Now, we did not get to see Jane tonight as she was absent due to a bout with food poisoning. I'll bet she is feeling better now!

Did everyone catch Marie mouth, "I am going to faint" when the judges made her wait through a commercial break to find out her fate? It was a surprise that she was not in the bottom two, but that Cameron found himself there. I guess tribal or primal, the audience did not favor his dance. But he will have next week to prove himself.

It was great to see some of the professional dancers back, including Cheryl Burke and Louis van Amstel . I like the scruffy look on Louis. Barry Manilow did a good job, but like Jennifer Lopez last week, he was overshadowed by the dancing.

Sounds like Dance War is going to be American Idol meets So You Think You Can Dance. It was a pretty impressive display of dancing.

I loved that the celebrities got to turn the tables and ask the judges questions this week. Of course the women got straight to the point, like Marie asking why the judges thought she couldn't do this competition. And of course Jane had to bring up the lift question. I don't think Carrie Ann will live that down this season. Did you read her reaction to Tony Dovolani's gift? Read more on that here.

I am sure there is more I forgot to mention, but I am eager to hear your reaction to this shocking news.
