[Luke Kryszewski]

Hey guys I just found a website that has almost all of the seasons of Dwts available! It is called watch series .bar it has seasons 8-33 which to me that’s a win because I have been looking for a site that could replace one of the previous sites I was watching Dwts on that no longer works anyways The only negative I have about watch series .bar is that it has tons of pop up ads and stuff like that so if you don’t like pop up ads I would suggest that this is not the site for you but I just close them with the x sign and then I am fine so just be aware of the pop up ads  I will share the link with y’all https://watchseries.bar/tv/dancing-with-the-stars/1508 I would suggest useing the My cloud server because I think that works the best and there will be a Purple streaming sever that will pop up after you pick Superembed and then pick doodlestream and then the episode will appear this works for the earlier seasons a lot for the later ones it will just show up anyways if you want to use this site and aren’t bothered by the pop ups then happy streaming !

Guys just curious did any of you guys use the link to watch series .bar that has season 8-33 on there ?

Chandler doesn't even have one on there...

[Luke Kryszewski]

Chandler Deserved to have at least in my opinion almost all of her dances on there !

Yeah as we know Chandler's dances don't really get much YouTube views.  Her most viewed dance is her Paso Doble, which had about 231,000+ views as of yesterday. That's somewhere outside of the Top 20.

 

I'm also surprised and impressed with the amount of views this season. This is a really high amount of views - moreso than the past few seasons.

I don’t know if you guys know but I have a dwts tier ranking game up so if you like tier rankings I suggest you participate in the game and I promise it is really fun !

Just out of curiosity, why are you hosting more games, when you've just abandoned the ANTM one you were doing.  You can check the games forums for active ones that are going on if you want to participate.  I might recommend starting there and seeing how much work goes into maintaining these before starting a bunch and potentially not finishing them.  I just see a pattern potentially starting. Running one successful game at a time might generate some interest to your other games, just my two cents.

You are right man I agree with you 100 percent I definitely should not have abandoned that game I think it was because I lost interest in it but you are right I definitely should have finished it I don’t think I can host that game anymore because I had trouble finding photos for the contestants that were still in the game that were no longer on the show  you are right I should probably just host one game at a time so I will just stick with the plus - game for now so I actually am happy you called me out on that because I should have stuck to that game and I didn’t if you want to you can do the Antm re- re loaded game and I  can tell everybody what happened again I am very sorry for abandoning it  .

I am excited for this episode! I still miss Len though   I feeling like we lost a piece of the show when he died .

the new TikTok/Reddit fans are causing a lot of revisionist history and it's really disappointing to watch unfold. i'm seeing many comments/posts saying "where was the energy y'all have towards Chandler when Charli and JoJo competed?" (when discussing how people are hating on Chandler for her dance experience).

 

these "fans" so clearly did not watch these seasons because Charli was torn apart on social media week after week (until around the Semifinals i'd say) for being "soulless" and "boring", and JoJo literally lost to Iman because of *how* much people hated on her dance experience. they didn't just have a peaceful journey to the finals lmao. 

[*Wallace]

Semi-Final dances are revealed!

 

The couples (along with their dance styles and songs) are the following:

 

Super Bowl Champion Danny Amendola and pro Witney Carson will perform a Viennese Waltz to “Gravity” by John Mayer and a Salsa to “I Like It” by Cardi B, Bad Bunny and J Balvin.


“The Bachelor” Joey Graziadei and pro Jenna Johnson will perform a Foxtrot to “I Won’t Dance” by Erin Boheme featuring District 78 and a Paso Doble to “Come Together” by Lennon & McCartney.


TV star Chandler Kinney and pro Brandon Armstrong will perform a Foxtrot to “Too Sweet” by Hozier and a Salsa to Spicy Margarita by Jason Derulo and Michael Bublé.


Olympian rugby player Ilona Maher and pro Alan Bersten will perform a Viennese Waltz to “golden hour” by JVKE and a Paso Doble to “Unholy (Orchestral Version)” by Sam Smith and Kim Petras.


Olympian gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik and pro Rylee Arnold will perform a Tango to “Sweet Disposition” by The Temper Trap and a Cha Cha to “Bailar” by Deorro featuring Elvis Crespo.

My thoughts:

- It's about time Danny gets a party Latin. The Salsa is def the best pick for him of those as he'll get to execute some great lifts. His Viennese Waltz should be decent.

- Aww kinda sad Joey won't get to do the Quickstep. But a Foxtrot should be good for him. Yayyy that he's got the Paso Doble as I've been waiting weeks for it.
- Aww sad that Chandler won't get to do a Quickstep or especially a Samba. I was hoping for a Samba from her. But her Foxtrot and Salsa should both be great.
- I think Ilona got a good mix of variety styles. I like that she got two very different styles from each other. I think she had the best Latin style left from her. Curious to see how her Paso goes. And ooo interesting song choice.
- Also about time Stephen gets a party Latin dance. With that said, I'm worried how that will go. But thinking his Tango should be good.


Wow I can't believe we've only got one Samba this seeason. VERYYY disappointing.  

 

[*Diana]

No Chandler Samba is criminal.

[Luke Kryszewski]

Yeah Chandler would have  killed the samba !!!but still think she would do so great in both the Foxtrot and Salsa !.

[keychange]

assuming that the Finale styles are Redemption and Freestyle... it's really annoying to see only one Samba this season with Joey & Jenna. even then, that Samba was a character dance that had a whole section of choreo catered to TikTok. it's my second favorite style on the show

Ughh agreed. I've always loved the Samba and it's one of my top favorite styles too.  I know it's a really tough style and most of this cast wouldn't have produced a good or great Samba (with the exception of Chandler) but I still wish we had gotten more Sambas.  

 

This also reminds me of back in Season 18 where there was only one Paso Doble. That disappointed me back then as well.

I hope this is a good sign on Stephen and Rylee making the final. I really want them to make it (mostly to see a Rylee freestyle) but the competition is so tight I really don’t know who’s going next. Everyone left is so likeable. 

[keychange]

i actually think Stephen & Rylee are locks to make it, behind Joey & Jenna. Ilona & Alan should be in jeopardy from a talent perspective, but they won't be due to the fanbase (which i'm fine with since I enjoy her, I just don't want her to win). it's between Danny & Witney and Chandler & Brandon, and i'm leaning towards Chandler at this point. she's gotten an extreme amount of hate this week for... no valid reason? 

 

i honestly don't really care about the result at this point because the quality of dance this season has been so low and the misogynoir directed at Chandler from White women with orange spray tans has made me want to isolate from this trash fandom  luckily IDF is a safe space away from it all.
