The "DWTS" results are in and Andy Dick is going home.
Though the "DWTS" results weren't surprising, the elimination was certainly one of the saddest of Season 16. Andy, a surprising fan favorite, has been at the bottom of the leaderboard throughout the competition, but his determination and enthusiasm in every dance has kept him in the running.
"It's been the best," a choked-up Andy said when the "DWTS" results came in, as he stood next his first-time pro Sharna Burgess. "Carrie Ann I'm going to kill you for the 5. It's all your fault," he joked, adding, "The fact that we are here in Week 7 is amazing ... It's been a wonderful, wonderful ride."
