Just watch the latest show tonight. Brandon had a stomach virus that still is not letting him go. It must be one heck of a stomach virus. Anyway, Brandon and his partner had to quit the show because of Brandon's illness. No one was cut this week because of Brandon and his partner quitting.
Johnny M. and partner really put on a show. They did two lifts and a throw double. It would have been pretty much first rate if Johnny hadn't got so excited about his partner being able to land the throw at the end.
Both lady stars are relying to much on their skating partners to pull them through. If it wasn't for their partners lifting them like dead weight, they'd not be going very far.
I think next week we should see all singles skating being judged. No more partnering. Have each skating be judged on stroking, turns, fully rotated single jumps, basic spins (sit or upright either foot). Have their skating partner be the the stars' coach to train them for next week.
