There are instances when a good shocking TV moment will cause viewers delight and joy. But let's be honest, a show like Dancing With the Stars is not one that benefits from surprise finales.

After weeks of watching stars and pros kill themselves in the name of dance, it's nice to see the most skilled person take the mirrorball trophy.

Luckily, that's exactly what happened this year.

Alfonso Ribeiro and Witney Carson were crowned DWTS champs, beating out Janel and Val and Sadie and Mark.

The announcement came after the three pairs performed mashup dances. Sadie and Mark did a samba/quickstep and Janel and Val and Janel performed a Bruno-approved "nuclear" Paso Doble/Foxtrot combo. Both earned (but, in the former case, probably didn't deserve) perfect scores.

Alfonso Ribeiro and Witney Carson chose the cha-cha and Argentine Tango as the two ingredients for their dance, and it was fantastic — though, probably not their strongest dance of the season. But when something's perfect, it's perfect, right? Why split hairs?

If there was a shocking moment, it came when the audience learned that Pretty Little Liar Janel came in third. Considering how Janel and Val have oozed chemistry this season, that seemed wrong but, I suppose, ultimately irrelevant.

So, to recap:

3rd PLACE Janel Parrish and Val Chmerkovskiy

2nd PLACE Sadie Robertson and Mark Ballas
