There are so many good dancers this season it might be a surprise who goes home every week!

The final four are all amazing, I don't know who to root for!

Hello Ladies, I am new posting in the chat forum. I have only posted over at potpourri once in a while.

I wanted to join in on the conversation because this season celebs are so good and exciting. I hope you all don't mind.

The last four are all so good but my absolute fav is Katherine. I liked her from day 1 and I hope she's safe tonight, especially since she had the little fall at the end. I voted for her. I also like Donald and William but I really want Katherine to win. I think she's the best. I just get this feeling William is going to win.

I feel so bad that she had the mess up at the end, I hope her back is okay.

Hi Linda, I also thought Donald would be the one to go home.

I liked them all, but to be honest if I had to choose who to go home, it would choose Maria. Maria is a good dancer, but I want to think Derek played a huge part in her doing so well. Dereck is great.

Katherine comes from a different background, opera singer, no dancing experience. Totally out of her element and yet she came in from day 1 and did fantastic. I really like her, I like her personality, she's so humble and she dances beautifully.

But I think William is going to win it. He has so many fans, especially the ladies, like you He is one hot guy. Nice looking at him every week.

Hi Linda,

First, I was surprised William came in third. I thought he would win (he had a whole lot of fans) and if not then at least second place but certainly not third.

After William was called for third place, then I just had this strong feeling Donald would win. Donald was good, he tried and put everything in each dance each week and always had a smile. I am happy for him and Peta. But Katherine was my absolute favorite. She was really the best. The football players do very well, they certainly have a huge fan base.

This was one of the best season, the celebs were so good.

Katherine had the technique and William had his hips but Donald won it with the freestyle which was just so much fun and unexpected that it blew the others away. And how could one not love his wife's bedazzled Cheese-head!

I loved that he was such a fan of the show that he knew about a freestyle dance from the second season and what style he wanted and a smart enough competitor and judge of his opponents that he correctly guessed what style of dance William and Katherine would do and that they'd both play it safe. Strategy in Dancing With The Stars!

Some were saying that athletes have unfair fan bases which I do think helps to keep them in the competition longer at first but I think they win because they are a) in great physical shape b) know how to work hard and through pain c) know how to take constructive criticism and be coached and d) work great under pressure and know how to thrive in the big moment knowing it might be the only chance e) are as competitive as heck .

(Of course it also helps if they can dance - see Martina, Sugar Ray for otherwise.)
