Maksim Chmerkovskiy, the "Dancing With the Stars" pro who earned a
reputation as the bad boy of the ballroom, came back from his two-season
break to act as guest judge in Monday's semifinals. But if fans were
expecting him to bring his old intensity and often-argumentative
attitude with him, then they were no doubt disappointed.
Sporting a squeaky-clean look — complete with a Bill Nye-worthy bow tie — Maks squeezed in between the regular panelists and played nice. Really nice.
When he wasn't politely smiling at a hands-on and admittedly "hot and bothered" Bruno Tonioli, he found himself agree with former foil Carrie Ann Inaba several times — an unexpected turn of events he jokingly referred to as "disturbing." As for Len Goodman, Maks got along with the head judge better than ever before.
When dealing with the stars, the returning pro offered mostly positive critiques, and he had even higher praise for their pros, including his former fiancée Karina Smirnoff.
