Last night was another dance-off and another double-elimination, which means the Dancing herd is thinning at a pretty quick rate right now. Maybe they better slow that down a little since the flu might have folks dropping like flies soon enough (Professional dancer Lacey missed Monday night's show with the flu, and Donny Osmond is under-the-weather. Marie Osmond, DWTS backstage correspondent for "Entertainment Tonight," also has the flu. I'm just sayin'...).

Here's my mom's recap of the show:

There were some interesting twists to last night's show. There was a special dance by the pros (which usually only happens on elimination night), Cloris Leachman returned to give crazy advice to the show's best dancer, and Aaron Carter designed his own terrible outfit.

Here's the full report.

It was a double-elimination night on "Dancing with the Stars" last night, which can be considered both good and bad. The bad is that fewer dancers means fewer episodes (I would presume), but the good part is putting strike power in the hands of the judges once in awhile. That helps keep the show more focused on the dancing and less about who is more popular or who has the largest fan base furiously dialing in votes from home.

Last night's "Dancing with the Stars" featured the Jitterbug and the Waltz, and more bizarre wardrobe choices from Aaron Carter. Plus a Mambo group dance.

Last night's episode of "Dancing with the Stars" proved once again that
the show is just as much a popularity contest as it is a real dancing contest. How else can you explain the dancers in the bottom group, much less the dancer who so undeservedly went home? But hey, that's what you get when you let America vote. We end up with the dancer we deserve. 

But despite the crushing  disappointment of the elimination, my mom thought it was a great episode.

All aboard the Crazy Train! Last night's "Dancing with the Stars"
had some bizarre moments. Some of the dancers were sick (Mark and Derek), and some of them just did some sick things (yes, Michael Irvin, we're looking at you.). Maks returned and almost fell, and Kelly Osbourne's Paso Doble was a nice tribute to her dad, who was in the audience and looking good.

Last night was elimination night, and while my mom's ultimate prediction wasn't correct, she was definitely in the ballpark. Or arena. Or whatever sports metaphor is appropriate for this particular dancer. Read on for more on last night's show and find out who got the sequined boot.

Last night the show introduced four new dances: the Two Step, the Charleston, the Lambada, and the Bolero. And they allowed lifts. Big night!

"Dancing with the Stars" isn't the only place with backstage drama
going on. My mom/correspondent was a little tired and cranky Monday night and tried to quit her unpaid job here on the blog. Fortunately, she decided if Tom DeLay can dance with two broken feet, she shouldn't be a quitter either.

Then Tom DeLay quit. And surprisingly, Tom wasn't the only dancer to exit last night...

It was a crazy night. Tom Delay danced with two broken feet, Donny Osmond kissed a man, Aaron Carter dressed like a girl, and Len got into a fight with Bruno.
