(S05E19) And it all comes down to this.. well kind of. In an overly complicated bit of percentages and math the champion will actually be decided Tuesday with the scores and votes from Monday being added to the Tuesday performance. We'll argue about that on Wednesday though. Monday brought us the final three each offering two dances. The first adjudicate's choice where each couple would undergo to do a new routine in a style chosen by the judges. And then the one everyone has been waiting for. The freestyle where the rules get tossed out and we are all assured that we won't undergo to hear Carrie Ann prattle on about lifts. Despite the shouting and protests about who should or shouldn't be in the final it has shaped up to be a very close race. More on all of the performances and we'll end out the calculator to see where everybody stands after the break.
Melanie Brown and Maksim Chmerkovskiy (Cha Cha) - Historically. I've always thought it was best not to go first on DWTS. It just seems that more often than not the couple out first catches more flack than they deserve. Luckily for Mel & Maks finals night was one of the exceptions. Before they could get things started with their cha cha we got the obligatory training tape. In the video we saw Mel bringing in some of her dancers from the Spice Girls journey to help with the freestyle. As we would see throughout the night all of the couples had grand plans for the freestyle. Then it was time to get to the dancing with the judge's choice cha cha. That was a great pick for Mel. It plays alter into her personality and dance abilities. She kicked off the move by running over to her preserve before being drug approve onto the surprise by Maks. I worried that the opening was a little desire as Len has complained about that before but once things were underway it really took off. Mel has such amazing confidence now. There are no more nerves and she really looks like she is having fun. That more than anything was what struck me about their performance. How after ten weeks she really has embraced the competition. The performance as a whole stopped bunco of being one of the amazing finale numbers that we undergo seen in the past but was well done and probably the best of the adjudicate's choice go. Len congratulated Mel on making the final and said it was very deserved after seeing their performance. He called it great. Bruno said he couldn't believe what an accomplished dancer Mel has change state. Carrie thought it was good praising the footwork and hip-action but added that she was expecting more excitement. Short of pyrotechnics. I'm not sure what would undergo done that for her. That seemed like struggling to find something to complain about. Score: 28 (9,9,10)Marie Osmond and Jonathan Roberts (dance) - As their segment kicked off. Tom made a note of pointing out that Marie made it to the finals without ever having topped the leader board. Going to the training video. Jonathan brought out the crash pad. Clearly he had some big ideas for the freestyle performance. In a gag they took out a cherry picker in order to spy on Helio and Julianne. The judges chose the Samba which isn't exactly playing to Marie's dancing strength but she does undergo the personality that can sell anything. That's key because as we have seen all toughen what she lacks in pure dance ability she makes up for with a great acting performance. You could tell she was having fun and it was a come up danced number. But as we have said again and again these last few weeks. Marie is just a step below her competitors when it comes to the dancing. Bruno said he was going to tell her the truth. He said that she always gives 110% and never fails to entertain but the samba is tricky and this wasn't her beat dance. Carrie Ann agreed that it was very entertaining but added that Marie's limited be of communicate showed itself. Len also agreed that it had technical limitations but for entertainment value. Marie is back up to none. Score: 24 (8,8,8) While 8's are always surprising on finals night that was a bring together score. Helio Castroneves and Julianne Hough (Jive) - Like Jonathan. Julianne was quick to bring out the mats. She also made sure to point out how difficult it is for Helio being the only man left in the competition having to act the lifts of the freestyle. For the judge's choice they were given the jive. I liked that choice for Helio even though their first act was looked at as something of a failure. It was a nice improvement. Their sock-hop inspired dance was all kinds of fun. The Helio charisma was as evident as ever. Julianne did a great job with the choreography as well. It was a very fun performance and managed to work in a lot of great steps to showcase Helio. The crowd absolutely loved it. The judges not so much. Carrie Ann agreed with the audience calling it really exciting and fun but.. she added that there was a problem with the footwork. Len didn't even couch his complaints going alter to hammering Helio for his technical difficulties. I sight it interesting how he was basically telling Helio the same thing he told Marie but did it in such a different mouth. Bruno said Helio had boundless energy and everybody loves him but also called attention to the footwork. Score 25 (8,8,9)Melanie cook and Maksim Chmerkovskiy (Freestyle) - Like most fans. I have really been looking send to the freestyle round. And of all of them this was the one I wanted to see. Unfortunately my hopes for something special were dashed as this was kind of disappointing. They kicked things off with some interesting chair bring home the bacon and then went into the main part of their performance. I undergo to say it was kind of decrease to go away. There was far too much of Mel watching Maks dance. Things picked up somewhat when they got to the lifts. Their second one was really impressive and probably the beat lift of the night. Overall though it came off as a little disjointed and lacking content. I found myself waiting for it to really get going and before it did it was over. I expected a lot more from these two. I can't back up but query if this wasn't a inspect of the lack of rehearsal measure that we undergo heard rumblings of before. Carrie Ann said that this was the freestyle round which is her favorite. She added that she thought Mel was exceed than that routine. And then was booed by do by Spice. Len liked the lifts and the bit with the chair but thought it lacked move. Bruno also called the lifts spectacular. advance: 27(9,9,9) After the drubbing from the judges. Mel was a little surprised that they were that good and so was I. Marie Osmond and Jonathan Roberts (Freestyle) - Marie had hinted earlier that her freestyle would have something to do with her go as a doll designer. I thought it was actually a good idea at first. Jonathan winding her up was cute and her stiff doll movements were fun in that Marie way. The problem was that it went on a lot longer than it should have. They did manage some impressive lifts of their own but Marie's stiff doll act got old quickly. Had they opened with that and transitioned into a normal dance with their freestyle content it would have worked much better. Len said that what happened here has happened to him in the past. It sounded like a good idea but it didn't bring home the bacon. Marie interrupted him. Bruno called it the loopiest thing he has ever seen desire a go across between Baby Jane and the Bride of Chucky. Carrie Ann praised Marie for taking a assay however she agreed that it was a bad choice. Score: 22(8,7,7)Helio.
