I was happy!

not me the winner had been scripted from day one IMHO
the real winner came in second
Anyway it's over

I agree with Minnie. Jennifer had too much experience, and should never have even been in the running on this show, which is supposed to be for amateurs.
She was the best, but it was unfair to put anyone up against her.

So, minnie and jenuwin, you would also have to say that Nicole Scherzinger didn't deserve to win last season because she has had so much professional dancing experience as lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls. All of her routines are choreographed.

You'd also have to say that Kristi Yamaguchi (Season 6) shouldn't have won, because as a professional and Olympic champion figure skater, her routines are choreographed and very similar to dancing.

Good grief, look at what Jennifer Grey has gone through -- she was in a head-on collision in 1987 (she was a passenger in the car), and ended up with a compressed spine. She has a titanium plate in her neck. She has a torn tendon in her knee. She had a cancerous nodule removed from her thyroid right before this season started (it was discovered during the pre-show physical). And during Monday night's show, she ruptured a disc in her back, but still performed two dances tonight. In my book, she MORE than deserved to win.

Two remarks:

The way it should have been.

Glad it is over.

jennifer is talented but rode the sympathy wagon from beginning to end....nauseating. if she had to whine about it then she should have quit long ago. kyle was a delight and really improved and i would have loved to see him win. for that matter, bristol is delightful and i would like to have seen her be appreciated more for her improvement through the season. the announcers seemed apologetic to announce her as a finalist.

I agree with Minnie and Jenuwin. This contest should be for people who have absolutely NO dance experience WHATSOEVER....in other words, 2 left feet. Now that would be a great show seeing how they advance...just like Bristol did, though she is not a celebrity and shouldn't have been casted. Jennifer had a HUGE leg up with dance skill and studied dance in college (I read her bio). It says: She is an alumna of the Dalton School, a private school in Manhattan, and studied both dance and acting. I agree Jennifer played the sympathy card all the way along with the "age" card. Now, when did 50 become old?

My vote was for Kyle from day one who had NO dance experience at all, but came out like a spit fire every time!!

I was happy with the results. Jennifer is twice the age of the runners up. Bristol was less than gracious when the results were announced.

Saw them on ABC Morning News today. Jennifer is , of course, lovely. I noticed when Bristol and her partner performed their jive dance, her steps were a weak imitation of his. And she needs to lose a little weight. Jenny Craig, are you listening?

again, I didn't watch this season, but I have watch
many other seasons, and they ALWAYS throw in at least
one person that has an advantage, don't they?

Surprised but thrilled Jennifer won. She is 33 years older than Bristol and is so much better it would have been a travesty if Palin had won. Jennifer has many health issues and yet performs like trouper. Palin was pouty and vindictive and not graceful at all. Hated watching her dance. All she could do was shimmy. Both the young ones were plump. Don't you usually LOSE weight doing all day exercise every single day for months?? I might not watch next year. Definitively won't watch the skating one.

"Jennifer had too much experience"

Dancing experience? She made a dancing movie almost 25 years ago. She was ACTING. Each dance is made of hundreds if not thousands of takes all spliced together, not the same as learning complete dances, sometimes several for one week. She was never a professional or semi-professional dancer. As she said, she was a "ballet of Saturdays" kid, as many are. She has the fitness level, body type and natural rhythm on her side. And remember, she is 50 years old! She may have natural talent, but so did many on the show (the ice skaters and pop singers that have been on, for example).

bristol "pouty"...............not on my television. and for "plump"...........give me a break! i had a daughter who was buelemic for 10 years and would have given anything to have had her confident enough to not want to be stick thin like most teens want to be now.... give the girl a break! would you have the confidence at her age to even try to learn all she did, with zero experience whatsoever, week after week? some people amaze me with critical, personal comments about people they don't even know. the two "plump" ones were very entertaining last night, in my opinion. for another opinion......if jennifer indeed had a disc rupture yesterday, she and her doctor need to share the miracle treatment with the rest of the world!. off my soapbox.

Well said, jae_tn!!!!!!!!!!

As I've said before, Bristol had absolutely no business being on this show. I have to say that although I'm no Palin fan, I did feel sorry for the way she was pushed into the limelight. I am sure that it was her mother that talked her into doing this show...just to increase the Palin name and exposure. Did anyone else notice that her answers seemed rehearsed? Sometimes, the answers didn't even correlate with the question asked. She seems like a sweet kid but she was obviously out of her element on this show.

I agree with Sue36....Jennifer's dancing movie was over 20 years ago. She worked just as hard as everyone else to win the trophy. I was hoping Lacey would have won because she hasn't won yet. Same for Max and Louie.

I saw them this morning too. especially loved seeing Max dance.

Until next season
