"Storyline was insufferable"— Dancing with the Stars fans celebrate Brooks and Gleb's elimination

Dancing with the Stars season 33 aired episode 5 this week on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. The segment was themed Dedication Night and saw the celebrity contestants and their professional dancing partners pay homage to a significant person in their lives.

At the end of the episode, one pair was eliminated from the show as a result of the judge's votes and the public vote. Chandler and Brandon, Dwight and Daniella, and Brooks and Gleb found themselves in the bottom. The Sports Illustrated model and her partner were eliminated from the show in week 5.

Fans reacted to the elimination online and celebrated Brooks and Gleb's journeys coming to an end. One person wrote on X:

"I do feel bad because brooks was a good dancer but their storyline was insufferable."

"Gleb saying “I thought we’d win” when it’s his fault for choreographing mid at best routines for Brooks and basically just coasting on s*x appeal and a cringy showmance? I’m done with this man," a fan commented.

"Brooks & Gleb eliminated. I can finally go back to watching #DWTS episodes with my family without feeling awkward," a tweet read.

Fans of Dancing with the Stars season 33 criticized Gleb's role as a choreographer and felt Brooks deserved better:

"BYE GLEB DONT COME BACK NEXT SEASON !!! BROOKS DESERVED BETTER!! He’s gonna “break up” w her too just know it," a person wrote.

"Gleb could have given Brooks better choreography but he just wanted to play into her hotness week AFTER week and it got so old so fast," a fan commented.

"Weirdest moment of the night: Brooks seeming surprised they went home. I personally didn’t hate them the way others did (their whole showmance schtick did get tiring, though). I’m surprised she didn’t see it coming based on social media," a tweet read.

Fans of Dancing with the Stars season 33 further said:

"Brooks & Gleb have been voted off we are finally marked SAFE from having to witness whatever that was," a person wrote.

"I was not rooting for Brooks to go home but I'm not mad about it. I think they ultimately just plateaued with their dances," a fan commented.
