"Dancing with the Stars" results: Hope still floats

Guest blogger Lenni G. talks elimination night:

Lots of really good entertainment last night from Kelly Clarkson singing two of her hits, The Band Perry accompanied by Louis and Karina, and a real dancing discovery - Charm La'Donna from Compton, California, doing a krumping routine with Mark Ballas and Derek Hough.  This incredibly talented girl with a truly inspirational back story deserves to be seen again and again. 

On to the results:

Bottom three ended up being Hope and Maks (I told you so!), David and Kym (I was surprised), and Carson and Anna (I was bummed).

DWTS: Recap of the new season premiere

"Dancing with the Stars" correspondent Lenni G is back on recap duty for us this season. Here's what she has to say about last night's season premiere:

We have a new season, a brand new set which looks more like an opera house than a ballroom, and a whole new group of 12 going for the mirror ball.
 
BBaller Ron Artest (aka Metta World Peace) and new pro, Peta Murgatroyd (best last name ever), started it all off with a cha cha.  Len said it was just "the same old shimmy - all sizzle and no sausage."  Bruno said Ron was a "Dance-A-Tron."  Carrie found it "eccentric but sexy" though she felt it was totally wrong technically.  I say Metta needs to be a lot betta if he makes it through tonight. 

Judges' score: 5's from Carrie Ann and Bruno, 4 from Len for a total of 14.

What to Watch on Saturday: Boxleitner returns to the spy game

CHAOS (8pm, CBS) - The agents protect a European political leader who faked her death on the eve of her country's presidential election. In another new episode at 9, the agents enlist the help of a retired spy (Bruce Boxleitner, left) to help them investigate whether moles are being placed in U.S. embassies. If "CHAOS" has any sense of humor, Boxleitner's character will be named Scarecrow (or Lee Stetson). Note: That Boxleitner photo is from "Tron: Legacy," not "CHAOS."

Swamp Shark (9pm, Syfy) - An animal-smuggling deal gone bad puts a man-eating shark into a swampy backwoods river, where it stalks swimmers and boaters and imperils the town's annual Gator Fest. Stars Kristy Swanson and D.B Sweeney.

Carson Nation (10pm, OWN) - In the series opener, style expert Carson Kressley travels the nation giving people "make-betters" (cutesie word for makeovers). In tonight's episode, he's in Eureka, California, where he helps a bride-to-be with lupus, a tattoo artist who needs to reconnect with his wife, and a Coast Guard medic who wants to reconnect with her feminine side.

Coldplay: Live from Glastonbury (10pm, VH1) - Coldplay performs "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall) and other hits at the 2011 Glastonbury Music Festival.
