Dancing with the Stars: Eras Night

It was a dance for every time as Dancing with the Stars season 20 celebrated "Eras Night" with each of the seven remaining couples performing a routine inspired by different periods in dancing history. With performances like a Modern Charleston, Contemporary, Argentine Tango and even a Futuristic Jazz number, it was truly an episode for the ages! Once again, our hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews welcomed us back to the ballroom and judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman, Julianne Hough and Bruno Tonioli were on-hand to critique the performances. At the end of the night, it was time for another couple to face elimination.

The pair of them ran the bases for a home run of a routine that had the judges cheering for the home team and earning the first 10 of the season from Len! • It's hard to go wrong with Ol' Blue Eyes, which Chris Soules and Witney Carson were counting on for their '40s Foxtrot to a classic Frank Sinatra track. Last week, Chris and Witney really shaped up and it may have saved them from shipping out with the judges loving the sailor-themed routine. • It was time to get groovy for a 1960s-style Jive by Rumer Willis and Valentin Chmerkovskiy after a visit from Rumer's dad, Bruce Willis, during rehearsals. Unfortunately, during Sunday rehearsals, things got tough after a close call with an injury. The judges thought it was another solid performance, but they're looking to see that extra spark they've come to expect from Rumer and Val. • Next up, it was time to get "Super Bad" with a '70s Jazz from Noah Galloway and Sharna Burgess. But there was nothing bad about that routine which brought the funk and the soul to the ballroom. • The ballroom got straight '80s as Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson danced their sultry Argentine Tango to a sizzling, slowed-down reinterpretation of Willis' "Word Up." The judges saw some serious improvement from the previous week and the chemistry between Robert and Kym is undeniable. • After an unforunate injury during rehearsals for the 10th anniversary special Derek Hough was unable to compete, so Nastia Liukin partnered with Sasha Farber, whom she's been rehearsing with occasionally throughout the season. But even with the injury, Derek choreographed—and sang along with musical guest Andy Grammer!—and the judges loved their Modern Charleston. • For the final individual performance of the night, Willow Shields and Mark Ballas took us to the future with their Jazz routine with some ninja flavor. As usual, the theatricality was off the charts, and the judges loved their NinJazz routine. • With the individual performances over, it was time for the dance-offs. First up, Riker and Allison chose to face Willow and Mark in head-to-head Salsa routines. The judges thought it was close, but they unanimously chose Willow and Mark, adding two points to their total score for the week. • Next up, Noah and Sharna chose to take on Robert and Kym in the Cha Cha. The judges were split down the middle, but in the case of a tie, Len's vote breaks it, giving the two extra points to Noah and Sharna. • For the final dance-off, Rumer and Val faced off against Chris and Witney with the Foxtrot. Chris and Witney put up a good fight, but Rumer and Val ran away with it, adding two points to their total score. • Finally it was time to say goodbye to another couple and, unfortunately for Willow and Mark, it was the end of an era.
