61. CONGRATULATIONS TO HELIO AND JULIANNE! My family has always voted for Julianne and no one else. What a encouraging and positive role model this beautiful, talented young lady is to thousands of little girls who put on their ballet slippers, tap shoes, tutu's and leotards every day to go to dancing class. Thank you Julianne for your dedication and hard work. We need more role models like you. Any aspiring dancer would be extremely lucky to have you as their dance teacher. CONGRATULATIONS!

62. I'm just so glad we don't have to listen to Marie Osmond talk about how old she is and her Brothers and that she is one of the worlds top Doll makers etc etc..She really should have been gone from that show long before some of the others.I think there needs to be a different voteing process for Dancing With the Stars..

63. Contestants come on the show with varying degrees of dancing ability. In seasons past, it was obvious from the very first show that Joey Fatone and Mario Lopez, and this year Cheetos Girl and Scary Spice were already dancers from day one. Viewers, I being one, looked at these contestants as not deserving of even being on the show in the first place. The week that Cheetos Girl was eliminated, her background video showed her having to interrupt her "professional dancing" to practice her "amateur dancing." Huh? I guess the viewers finally caught on that she was only there to promote Disney's new Cheetah Girls movie on Disney's top-rated television show.

I watch the show to follow the people who really can't dance improve week to week. This year that was Helio - after all, he's a Brazilian who couldn't even do a Samba!

65. Hurray for Helio and Julianne.. What entertainment they brought to TV..This type of entertainment is so welcome in comparison to programs about people looking for LOVE re: New York and Telia-what a joke!!!

It was nice no ones' foul language had to bleeped out and no one was "swapping spit" with multiple partners!!!

It is time for TV to be censored and get some of the crap kids' have access to off the tube!!

How about a reality show revealing the numbers of people with sexually transmitted diseases and teenage pregancy rates.. TV contributes to the epidemic by glamourizing trashy behavior...

And yes I am a Baby Boomer so you may say I am prude!! So what?? I like to think I have some values and principles..

66. I agree with Janelle, Mel B should have won.
At least it wasn't Marie.

68. HELIO IS THE RIGHT WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!FROM DAY ONE ALL THE POLES HAD HIM AS THE WINNER......LISTEN TO THE REAL PEOPLE!!!!! THEY WERE FANTASTIC!!!!!!!

69. Why Marie didn't show:

She starts a 5 city tour beginning this Thursday, November 29 at a Casino in Minnesota. Since she knew she wouldn't win she probably skipped the "partay" at the finale and decided to prepare/travel. She got a lot of PR from her appearance on Dancing. It would not have been fair if she had one purely on "fan support" rather than dancing skill.

74. Mel B was good but she is a professional entertainer who has done dancing before as did Marie (who was not as talented). Helio is a professional race car driver who never danced before. He was outstanding! He had natural flair, rhythm, and more charisma than everyone put together. I am delighted he won...it was the only choice and the best one!

P.S. He and his partner would make the most adorable couple in private life..so much chemistry between them!!

75. Mel was totally robbed. I watched this on and off for a few years now. I was happy for the ex Dallas Cowboy to win but I thought should Mario should have gotten it.
