FACEBOOKDang! The judges kicked Marlee out too soon. There is a dancer, who should have gone long before Marlee, for her selfishness and whining. However, applause to Marlee and for her determination to challange the toughest thing like dancing without being able to hear music. She was very courageous! She did not back out when she was invited to participate the DWTS! She deserves all back pats, hugs, kisses and the recoginzation for her hard try. I love her and am so sorry to see her go. Long live, Marlee!
Marlee Matlin Reflects on DWTS: "I Dropped the F-Bomb"

The hardest part of leaving Dancing With the Stars for Marlee Matlin? Saying farewell to partner Fabian Sanchez.
"We hit it off like we were friends forever," she told Usmagazine.com after her ousting Tuesday. "[One time], I dropped the F-bomb. He laughed, and I
knew it would be fine."
The two failed to impress judges with their mambo, earning just 21 out of 30.
Judge Carrie Ann Inaba told them they looked like they "were forcing and struggling" throughout their performance.
Despite the criticism, Matlin, 42, told Us (through a sign-language interpreter), "I'll keep dancing forever. Wherever the music is, I'm dancing!"
Sanchez said he will miss "the whole two-and-a-half months" he spent with her.
"We would go to get lunch together, goof around and play jokes on each other," he told Us. "I'll always remember every single day. And I just hope that were going to continue to be friends forever."
The two recently hit Us' Hot Hollywood bash. See all the party photos here .
Tell Us: Did Marlee deserve to go?

It sucks that Marlee & Fabian went home, Marlee was an inspirationt to people because whether you have a disability, you can do anything you set your mind to, like dancing, acting, singing, etc. Also, Derek, grow up & be more nice to the judges, etc. or you'll lose more fans, and respect for the judges, etc.

Shannon and Derek were bad sports; he whined and she cried like a baby just because they didn't get the high marks they thought they deserved. That's life, and life isn't always "fair". Grow up and deal with it.

It was time. She's an inspiration! Great job! Quit bashing the other contestants everybody. The judges have been WAY harder on them than they were on Marlee. I was amazed at how well Marlee did without being able to hear the music. I can't do squat and I can hear the music but they have been incredibly harsh to both Marissa and Shannon. I think Kristi could go out and just stand there and get a 30. Don't get me wrong, she's extremely talented, but the judges are doing their best to sway the public votes this year. VERY irritating. I don't think Derek and Shannon owed anyone apologies last night. Way to stand up for yourselves!!!!

She did great...way better than I would have done. Although she was very inspiring, it was getting tougher and tougher for her each week. Regardless, she should go home proud of herself and her accomplishments.

I think Marlee did a great job. I wish Marissa would have went before Marlee though. But at any rate, Marlee did a great job and is an inspiration to anyone.

As much as I admire her, I do think it was time to go. Although I think Marissa should have gone before her. She is a great inspiration to many and seeing how it effected everyone really says alot about what kind of person she is.

she did do great but it was always going to get harder and harder and she had hit a wall with the dancing. she deserved to go home although she was a great asset to the show and showed nothing should hold you back from trying. we can't keep her just because we like her.

She is an inspiration to everyone, especially those with any type of physical handicap. She proves that if you have desire, nothing is unattainable. How she was able to get this far in a dance competition is simply amazing and a testiment to what an extraordinary person she is. I am truly sorry to see her leave DWTS and she will be missed by all every week until this competition is over. Good luck to her.

Shannon Elizabeth should've been the one to go. She's an irritating airhead.
