Review: The chemistry between these two is just amazing!!! Go Maks! Go Meryl! A beautiful waltz set to country music. Love it!!!

Carrie Ann Inaba: What you do is incredible, I was watching the room watch you. The whole room was running into you.

Len Goodman: What I love is you took that right on the edge. No playing safe you went for it 100%.

Kenny Ortega: You blew me away last week... power, grace, synchronization... you left nothing on the dance floor but a little bit of sweat.

Bruno Tonioli: Tonight it was "Giant" ... Elizabeth Taylor swept away in Texas.

And the couple with the lowest combined scores of viewer votes and judges scores and leaving on the ninth week of competition is: Charlie and Sharna!

Note: Sorry guys, my computer crashed in the middle of all this. And I had to reinstall the operating system. Just got back going again at 2 a.m. ET.
