It’s a sad, sad day on DANCING WITH THE STARS, Valerie Harper and Tristan MacManus were eliminated on week four of the competition. Skill wise it was the right choice but heart wise, no way, not even close. She had us at hello and now it’s already time to say goodbye. No one has ever had the ability to take things in stride like Harper who managed to smile week after week even when receiving “5s” for scores. Let’s hope she continues to dance on her own. Score wise, Amber Riley & Derek Hough, Elizabeth Berkley & Val Chmerkovskiy, and Corbin Bleu & Karina Smirnoff all tied with 27 landing in first place.

Guest judge Julianne Hough showed great conformity in her scoring tonight. She, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli gave all the duos the exact same scores every time. If Tonioli gave someone an 8, so did Hough and Inaba. Although Hough did a fine job and it was amusing to see her score her brother Derek Hough and old pal Mark Ballas, some acrimony was missing. Yes, the old fart’s absence was felt. It was too nicey nice without good old Len Goodman. I never thought I would say that but it’s true. Missed more though, and STILL is the results show! I am going to say it every week until it comes back or I get sick of writing it.
