Monday night’s biggest action had little to do with the stars and everything to do with the clash of two “Dancing” titans — judge Carrie Ann Inaba and pro dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

      Maks' little fit was NOT iimpressive. Sometimes you have to grin and bear it.

        you can't make drama and get people to watch a show if you're always fair.

          Maks has to remember he is not the "Star", judges judge and they are a constant. Picky or not, Maks needs to button up, step up and dance.

              Unless a dance team gets a perfect score, there will be disagreement. The judges hold the power of the score and the dancers must except it

                The female judge made alot of hay over what was part of a choreographed routine. Just do your job Carrie and cut the score, not the dancer

                  Carrie Ann Inaba was unprofessional and Maks was correct to defend unfair criticism.

                    It was part of their choreography, which was witty, effective and worth a 9+ if Carrie wanted to act out on TV.

                      It's entertainment. I believe they are just spicing up the show for ratings.

                        She got a 10 last week with a mistake and yelled out during the dance. How fair was that. She is given special treatment.

                          Carrie Ann wasn't wrong in this case. Brandy did less dancing than many of the others in that round. I wasn't impressed with her or Maks!

                            Carrie Anne is always that way though. Deducting for very small lifts, etc.

                                    I think Carrie Ann was more like "Poltergeist" moment.....dance to the light Carrie Ann, dance to the light....

                                            The judges are really pulling for Brandy to win. She's good but she gets 10's even if she makes mistakes! Doesn't seem fair to the others

                                              He should be DQ for Conduct Unbecoming of a Dancer. If his opinion mattered, he'd be assigning 10's to his partner and himself every time.

                                                  I agree, the show has reached maximum boredom factor. The masses need a different bread and circus distraction.

                                                    Maks is so-ooo much into himself, so much better than everyone.

                                                    Criticism is something he can't handle.

                                                       Maks should have kelp quite and discussed with Carrie Ann at a later time not on air, the rest of the contestants and pro's have heard far more critical judgments that that and handled it with grace.

                                                        It about the celebrity receiving constructive comments and not about the pro and the judge. Let's move on!! Brandy will be long gone and Maks and Carrie Ann will still be there.

                                                          Did Brandy steal Carrie Ann's boyfriend? She seems jealous of Brandy.
