What? That isn’t right? Oh. Sorry. I guess it just seems that way. Love this show, but honestly, is it ever NOT on the air? I think I remember about a month and 3 days last summer where it wasn’t airing. Maybe. In any case, it’s Semi-Finals Week, which means putting the remaining couples through as much physical torture as humanly possible with THREE dances in one night. That’s right – three!!! As if this wasn’t enough to send each contestant screaming to the hospital with various, inevitable injuries; this is also the week where the producers like to get the audience emotionally invested in the 4 remaining “stars” by showing tear-jerker video montages of their childhoods, family interviews, and what gives them the drive to succeed on the show.

The first two rounds of dancing consists of individual routines, with two couples performing the Samba, and two couples the Pasa Doble. In the second round, all four couples would dance to the Argentine Tango, the first dance of the competition where lifts are allowed. Finally, round three would be the Cha-Cha Relay, in which all four couples dance to portions of the same song in random sequence. Each couple is then scored by the judges for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place. The scores are tallied and added to the other two dance scores, and then all the scores are driven by camel to the Grand Canyon where they are burned in a ritual known as “score burning.” Then Tom Bergeron and Brooke Burke Charvey both do a traditional Riverdance jig over the remnants of score cards. In other words, the scores are supposedly so very important when combined with America’s votes, but we all know that’s total BS by now, right? Good. Now, let’s get to the dancing, because we haven’t even started yet, and I’m already freakin’ exhausted.
