We’re down to just the final five performing pairs this week and with the competition so close one missed step could many any goes home this week. Each couple will perform two dance sets, just like last week. There are just two weeks left in this season of Dancing with the Stars, so keep cheering on your favorites.

Jennie Garth & Derek Hough
Dance: Jive
Len isn’t sure if her performance tonight has earned her a spot in the finals. Bruno thought her performance was a bit limp and not as good as it should be at this stage in the game. Carrie Ann agrees with the other judges and felt she crumbled as it went along and needs to work on her posture.

Len Goodman: 8
Bruno Tonioli: 8
Total: 24

Cameron Mathison & Edyta Sliwinska
Dance: Viennese waltz
Bruno thought it was majestic like a great big albatross. Good job, he told them. Carrie Ann really loved it and thought it was beautiful. Len didn’t care for the bare chest open shirt in a ballroom setting. As far as the performance he thought it started out rough but he grew to love it.

Marie Osmond & Jonathon Roberts
Dance: Rhumba
Carrie Ann tells her that what she does she does so well, but she wants more aggression and moves out of her. Len thinks she should have been moving her hips more, but it was a sophisticated dance. Bruno tells her she got the spirit of the dance, but suggests more steps in there to keep her chances alive.

Jennie Garth & Derek Hough
