(S10E09) There was a really uneven results episode of 'Dancing with the Stars' this week. While the first half of the show was filled with performances and musical guests, the second half dragged on forever.

With only eight contestants left, each couple was paired up to have their news delivered. Unfortunately, the show still managed to use the term "still in jeopardy" as a way to reveal nothing and waste my time. The eliminations start with Nicole & Derek and Kate & Tony. Nicole & Derek are safe; Kate & Tony are in the bottom two.

Encore - Jake & Chelsie's Cha-Cha - The second time around, Jake had a bit more trouble with his pants; along with that, he was just a bit off the whole time. To make it more interesting, Chelsie's boob attempted to fly out at every possible turn. It was funny: If you looked at the judges panel, Bruno looked really bored, boob and all.

Musical Guest - Maxwell, 'Fist Full of Tears' - We're treated to a dance routine by two of our non-normal dancers. The two channel a lot more contemporary spins and turns than any specific genre of dance. The two had no fear as she was tossed around the floor.

The next two couples are up, Chad & Cheryl and Niecy & Louis. Niecy & Louis are safe and Niecy shakes every giggly part possible. They decide to leave Chad & Cheryl in limbo.

Adam Corolla's Between the Mirrorballs - Adam's jokes and comments are lukewarm. I cracked a smile when he made fun of Bruno and Kate, but it fell flat overall.

Macy's Stars of Dance - A Tribute to the Movies - Four movies are given a tribute even though there are hundreds of better movies with memorable dance sequences. My biggest gripe was the lack of transition between the dances. While I thought the 'Austin Powers' section was good, did the one dance sequence in that movie really deserve to stand next to 'Saturday Night Fever'? Also the reenactment from 'Fame' seemed odd because the remake only did moderately well in the movie theaters and was pimped by 'So You Think You Can Dance' last summer.

Musical Guest - Debi Nova, 'Drummer Boy' - There's something really crazy about the expression that Debi had the whole time. It always looks like Tony is having the most fun when he's not dancing with Kate. Debi genuinely looked like she had a great time for her first U.S. TV debut.

Evan & Anna and Jake & Chelsie are the next two couples and while Evan & Anna are safe, Jake & Chelsie have to wait. After another commercial Erin & Maks are safe and Pam & Damian are in jeopardy.

We get yet another recap for no reason. The last three couples' fates are revealed. Jake & Chelsie and Chad & Cheryl are safe. Cheryl couldn't hear any of the results and stood confused for a few seconds; ironically the show gave Chad the opportunity to make the mistake of hugging Jake first. The bottom two are Kate & Tony and Pam & Damian. Carrie Ann congratulates her determination. Bruno loved how Pamela portrayed a character. The couple that was eliminated: Kate & Tony.

Kate is in tears and at a loss for words. Tony was very positive about Kate. Kate does her best to thank everybody and keep a positive attitude. She gives her kids a shout out and the screen fades to 'Lost.'

I'm happy that Kate lasted this long, but like all gimmick celebrities, she was on borrowed time. After you saw her lack of potential, it was more funny than anything else.

Next week is the swing marathon and the contestants get to design costumes for the dances, which several mentioned would include Sambas.

Are you happy that Kate was eliminated? Will you still watch this season? Leave comments below.
