Stephen should be proud of himself for giving his all in this dance! When he FEELS- it shows! the arms, nuances of the hands, he was light on his feet, had natural movement across the floor w/ lil touches of balletic technique! BEST Viennese waltz this season! It’s a 10 🔥
Was nearly in tears I just kept saying This potential was always there and seeing him bloom! This was so elegant and beautiful I almost started crying it was so beautiful. 😭
He's improved sooooooooo much since Week 1, and still improving! Coming from absolutely zero dance experience, plus his eyesight is very poor while they're performing. I love that he's fallen in love with dancing! That reminds me of John O'Hurley from Season 1 (loved him!) and the football player from several seasons ago who loved dancing so much, he joined the cast of the DWTS Tour after his season.
I love how this dance brought back their love for dance When Charli and Mark did this they both said that it made them love dance again and now it’s Stephen who came to love the genre as well. This dance truly is beautiful
@@luinestablero5860 Exactly. Is Chandler good? Of course …she’s the “best” dancer. Has she necessarily shown a true arc of improvement? That’s hard to say since she was already a dancer. It just feels disingenuous.
Watching Riley have this amazing season! It’s melted my heart! Such a wholesome pairing!! Stephen was like a classic film star, it was so elegant. It was giving Great Gatsby vibes and he was the perfect Tobey Maguire. This was their best dance so far and they’re my favorite couple!!!
Kudos to the costume designers. Rylee’s flowing dress just added to the song’s beauty as if she was floating through the wind, and Stephen’s tux with tails was very charming. The pastels colors added a timeless sweet innocence to their gentle movements as they glided in unison across a dreamy landscape.
I loved this dance. I don’t cry when watching this show easily, but I sure cried after this! He is exactly what DWTS should be. People who have never had dance experience going out and learning to BALLROOM dance. He has improved so much since the beginning of the season, I love to watch him dance!
Dude Stephen’s improvement in a matter of a few weeks is INSANEEE I’m rooting for him!!! also it’s only Rylee’s second ever season as a pro and she’s in the semi finals!! She should be so proud 💕
Gorgeous lines, beautiful extensions, pointed toes, perfect synchronicity, strong frame. There wasn’t a flaw in this dance, and it’s a true shame it was not given the perfect score it deserved. Stephen became a leading man in this dance, and imo, this was the most moving dance of the season, largely because of him, his growth, and his character. Well done.
please don't ask me how many times I've watched this (& cried while doing so), because I could not tell you!! I truly believe last week was Stephen's breakout moment and I have honestly loved all their dances regardless of the scoring.. BUT this dance has put him on a new level (for me)! this dance was truly stunning and beautifully paid tribute to Charli and Mark's version! I can't wait to see what Stephen and Rylee do in the next 2 weeks & if they keep this momentum they are having, I could truly see them winning!!
WOW! His best dance. He honed in on the grace & musicality that he's capable of and it was a beautiful performance! He also oozed "leading man" energy all through. I think Len would've loved this.
Wow. This is my favorite dance by Stephen yet. I've always been routing for him but he leveled up big time with this dance. Best dance of the night for me. Having Mark there to coach made such a huge difference.
Chandlers dance was better though. More difficult. Him being one point under her makes sense. He still has a little minor awkwardness in his movements. Chandler was perfect.
@@braydentheslayer In past seasons, it didn't matter if someone else right before or after them was slightly more perfect, the judges would still give the couple a perfect score if they deserved it and would score the dances relative to themselves and where each couple was at(Charli vs Gabby's Paso Dobles and Viennese Waltz). By your criteria, no one that season should've earned a perfect score from the judges in any dance because charli's dances were always more perfect than theirs. In this scenario, that's not the case: they both deserved a perfect score from the judges and since stephen danced first, he should've gotten one, AND Chandler should've gotten one for her number too because while it may have been slightly better than his, if your dance is better than the perfect score right before it, yours should earn one too. Otherwise, Bruno should've at least given Stephen a critique for something for him to work on for next time to justify the 9
@@elenajoseph6630 haven’t you noticed the scoring being weird the whole season? They way they underscored Chandler and gave others 10s last week. They clearly need to start comparing now that it’s the semi-finals. She looks like a professional dancer JUST like Charlie the TikTok dancer from a couple seasons ago. Just like Val’s partner who won last year. Their dancing was perfect mostly. Yes Stephen is amazing but he STILL isn’t equal to Chandler. He got two 10s and he deserved them but if you think he was equal to Chandler that night you’re insane lol
I’m not surprised with Stephen and his ability in him to really work hard and to give it his best; it was just beautiful and the best Vietznesse Waltz I’ve seen in quite some time. 😭❤️👏
Wow. I'm so proud of them! You can see the hard work and dedication. I love watching Stephen dance. The Viennese Waltz is a great showcase for his grace.
This dance deserved a 30! I just believe the judges didn't want to give Stephen the first 30. But Stephen you improved so much on your beats and slowing down and this dance proved it!
This week and last you can tell he is feeling the music and focusing a bit more. I think he was getting so excited and would rush. But now he is in a different zone
This was Stephen’s best dance yet! I am so proud of him! Plz plz let this guy win! He deserves it so much! He is the definition of what improvement and a winner is on this show! ❤
Can we have mark come and help the contestants. I know it was his dance Stephen was honoring so he popped up for the 500th episode but I think he could help the stars with tips and his presence is dearly missed.
Well done, Mister Nedoroscik, if we ever thought that you were only good at gymnastics, well that was a true masterpiece, they are both so light, I am thrilled, way to go !
Beautiful. Loved that he managed to reign in his usual frenetic energy and produce lovely arms and lines. A little flat footed, but otherwise so so good. 9/10.
Rylee moving to hug him as soon as they were done was so beautiful, she knew how well they did 🥹

When he said he fell in love with dance I thought that was so heartfelt and it’s definitely showing in his dances.

Me too but I cry though out the dance
Look at what this star with ZERO dance experience has become! This is the true soul of DWTS

I love the way the gentleman actually LED the lady across the dance floor! Not timid, self-confident.
his best of the season BY FAR. stephen your growth has been immeasurable. when you feel it, WE FEEL IT. gorgeous dance
Everyone please keep voting for him every Tuesday night.
Stephen really improved his musicality and timing so proud of him this dance was so mature and elegant.
@@reneegeorge2369 I think the choreography really helped with the close hold moments which seemed so absolutely real and tender.
Rylee has been my favorite for a couple of years. Her choreography is on point! Such precision…I hope they win!
I think Mark coming in to coach Stephen really helped a lot too.
@@lynnngo7256this is her second year
Stephen is peaking at the right time of the competition!!! What a huge improvement!

Her dress was perfect for Oscar's night. Red flowing dress looked just like Superman's cape!

This was so beautiful. They deserve to be in finals!!
Such a moving dance, brought tears to my eyes. Such growth from Stephen. Well done, you two!
Charli and mark's dance to this song was my favorite EVER on the show. I was so nervous for them but they delivered so hard!

His best dance! This one gave me the chills
This dance deserved a 30! I just believe the judges didn't want to give Stephen the first 30. But Stephen you improved so much on your beats and slowing down and this dance proved it!
Mark gave him some great tips that really helped him with slowing down to dance with the beat, instead of ahead of it, and in sync with his partner.
We agreed, it was a 30 from us here at home! Beautiful performance and deserved better!
Everyone please keep voting for him every Tuesday night.
SO BEAUTIFUL!!
Bruno, this dance was the only other one akin to its original iconic dance. Absolutely deserved a perfect score!
