I missed it, what happened to Suni?

She's had some sort of stomach bug all week, so she needed to go "take a break." Kudos to her for sticking it out.

I enjoyed the relays. Melora Hardin is growing in my opinion. I'm thinking maybe The Miz will be the one to go home this week.

Awww that's to bad for Suni. How did she ever get through it. What a champ.

I also think The Miz will be going home.

And, the judges did indeed send The Miz home. No shock there. The remaining celebs all have something to recommend them.

JoJo in the bottom two? That's a head-scratcher. As much as I've enjoyed her dancing, she's *almost* too much of a ringer for me, and perhaps for the rest of the DWTS audience as well. Or, it could be just a temporary glitch in voting. We shall see.

I was surprised at JoJo being in the bottom two. That makes no sense to me.

I'm glad Artem Val and their partners are safe!

I record the broadcast and begin it about 30 minutes into the taping so I can minimize the annoying Tyra.

The contestant who I just cannot wait to go home is JoJo - her loud, OTT behavior is such a turn off to me. She is a good dancer but it's all about her. Olivia Jade came in with the world stacked against her and has shown herself to be more humble and gracious. That's a sign of a winner to me.

@GuardianAngel I've stopped watching. Sometimes I watch a few contestant's dances the next day on you tube. However, Tyra has basically ruined my enjoyment of one of my favorite shows.

ITA. I don't like her, and I don't get her entire persona. Her house is just bizarre, like the dream home of a teenager on steroids. Obviously she has fans who *do* get her, and that's a good thing. At the same time, I try to be fair about her dancing. She's done a wonderful job on the show, and her dancing has been excellent. She's been a great partner to Jenna, and Jenna has had really inspired choreography this season.

She's such a ringer, though. In most cases, the fans don't hold it against a celeb, but IMO she's the most obvious ringer the show's ever had.

Same here. I've been hanging by a thread the last few years because of the favouritism, but this is really difficult for me to enjoy.

I had no idea this is how the tie breaker worked. If the judges didn't even know, you would think this would be clearly communicated to not only the staff but viewers. Maybe I missed that part.

“I still don’t understand it, and I’ve said this to producers. I was like, ‘Guys, we gotta reword this thing because the tie doesn’t make sense,'” Hough, 36, told Us Weekly exclusively on Tuesday, November 2, while promoting his partnership with The Incredible Egg. “So basically, this is kind of the way I’m explaining it: Essentially, Len [Goodman] has two votes, that’s it? Len has the weight of two votes. I wish we just said it like that because that makes so much more sense.”

Derek is correct it doesn't make sense at all! The judges should just all decide together on who they want to stay and they won't have to figure it out on the spot as Tyra is always cutting them off.. even when they are talking about the dances.
