Editor's Note: On Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, visit our TV Watch page to read Annie's take on the previous night's performances.

THE UNLIKELY HEROES

Dancing With the Stars winners like Olympic champion speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno (left) and Indy 500 winner Helio Castroneves had already mastered their specific areas of world domination. So watching them become good enough ballroom dancers to eventually hoist that fabulous glitter ball like it's the coolest thing in the world (well, at least in Helio's case) is just hilarious. You did it, guys! (Hmm. Alternate title for this entry: ''Julianne Hough is a rock star.'')
