Re: DWTS - Season 24 - Nick Viall - Peta Murgatroyd - FAN Forum - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

No way should Nick be going home before Bonner or David. He is a better dancer than both of them.  Baseball fans may save David but would Bonner have fans to save him? All my votes are going for Nick and I'll stop watching when he's out.

How come Bonner got higher scores? I don't get it!

I really wanna see Bonner do a jive with this type of choreography and be judged!

If it doesn't happen tonight they are definitely trying to set up his elimination for next week so we can be bored by the circus of ringers. His journey as a non dancer with no choregraphy background is what makes this show fun to watch in the first place.

Unfortunately I think Nick will either be going home tonight or next week. He doesn't stand a chance against the girls.

[cookielover12]

Once Nick is gone, so am I!! I am so tired of seeing ringers who perform on a regular basis be given high praises, meanwhile someone who has no background on dancing and has been getting better each week isn't getting any praise or acknowledgement!

[cookielover12]

Can someone post Nick & Peta's jive when posted? thanks

[chrissy1295]

^^ Gotcha

[cookielover12]

@chrissy1295 thank you!!!

I agree with y'all, I think he's either gone this week or next and I think he knows it as well. I hate that too. I'll go with him until he returns for the final show. Lol

No way can he compete with professional performers. Oh well. I'm proud of him for what he's accomplished thus far!!

Nick needs a couple of shots of whisky before her performs.

The thing that makes Nick's scores particularly frustrating is that while not superstar level of dancing because he's not a professional, he actually never messes up. Like with many weak celebrities with no dance background, they often have obvious errors or they forget the choreography or they're not on time because they can't hear the music properly, etc.

That never happens with Nick. He remembers everything Peta gives him, is always on the beat and in time and is pretty steady. There's nothing glaringly wrong in his dancing. He's just not out of this world wow because he's not a performer. And that's what's working against him which to be clear isn't entirely fair but this show is what it is.

Also, there have been people without a performance background who've managed to find their inner performer. James Hinchcliffe from last season comes to mind. Nick doesn't have that but his dancing is still solid. It just doesn't have the wow factor that other couples have, which yes, includes the ringers. If it helps anyone, Rashad will probably take it in the end and he's not a ringer.
