It's only a matter of time before William Levy and Katherine Jenkins start scoring perfect scores.

I am still amazed at how good these contenders are compared to past contenders.

Below is a grid of the current standings with to-date totals.

Below is a grid of the score to date of last Fall's version of Dancing With the Stars after two performances.

Note that the highest two week score last fall was 44 with the lowest of 34 not counting the first dancer sent home. This spring the highest two week total is 52 with the lowest at 37.

Though it is just fine that the celebrity dancers are so much better this season. It's just surprising is all. What you bet that as time goes on some of those contenders take some dance lessons or bone up on their existing talent before even throwing their hats in the ring?

Whatever the case, Katherine and William are the ones to watch for, particularly Katherine, who beguiles on every level.

Martina Navratilova was sent home and this was no surprise. I'd commented on her negative attitude prior and it's almost liked she begged to be voted off.

Martina, Gavin and Jaleel were in the bottom three.
