Marie Survives, While Cameron Is Sent Back to AMC

A few thoughts on last night's DWTS results show, which saw All My Children star Cameron Mathison get the boot after eight weeks of competition:

A shocked Marie Osmond said a naughty word after learning she was the first one safe. We read her lips when host Tom Bergeron announced her and pro partner Jonathan Roberts's names. Jennie Garth, on the other hand, had a look on her face that seemed to say she thought she was doomed.



Need more proof the Indy 500 champ Helio Castroneves is a favorite to win season five? He and partner Julianne Hough were the couple asked to give an encore performance, after a night in which all the contestants had at least one standout number. Plus, is it us or does it seem like Castroneves can't keep his lips to himself?

Meanwhile, Mathison's gracious reaction when he learned he was leaving the show–he bowed to his fellow competitors and said he was anxious to perform one more dance–made us sorry to see him go . . . how 'bout you? Will you miss the toe-tappin' daytime stud? And were you surprised that Osmond and Garth survived another round? –Kimberly Potts
