TV: The Official Dancing with the Stars Thread!!!

[kwancierto de aranjuez]

What do you think? I like the show so far.

Who do you think is the best one so far?

I liked Joey, Trista, and Evander... they were all good so far considering some like Evander have never had dance training.

I was a little annoyed at how some of them made their professional partners do the actual dancing like that old man. All he did was hold his partner's hands while she did all the twirling and spinning. I know that I realized Kellyw as trying to look passionate and romantic but maybe that's an indication of her acting skills. I wan't blown away by the model. Actually, I wasn't blown away by Evander but I just wanted to root for him just because he looked so out of place.

Since when is Trista Rehn a "star"?

Annabelle the term *star* was being used pretty loosely in regards to the people competing imo. In any case I enjoyed the show I liked all the couples except Joey and his partner and I hope they are voted off first. I also thought the audience got into the same couples that I did even though the judges disagreed. The hosts really annoyed me.

The judges were annoying. Evander Holyfield did nothing, yet they raved. Trista and the girl from General Hospital did great, and they gave them low scores. And really, the dancing overall wasn't good.

[Mighty K]

The judging is inaccurate and I hope the best dancers win not the biggest 'STAR'.

I think it is going to be a good show even though I don't agree with the judges either. They were starting to get on my nerves.

[uncchristine99]

All the judges were horrible, especially the Asian girl. I thought Trista and her partner did really great and they just barely squeaked out over 15 points. That's terrible! Well, I'd watch it again next week just to see what happens but I'm getting really tired of the format of these shows.... do some kind of talent and get judged by three horrible judges... la di dah. Been there, done that. I just want to see them dance.

My sentiments exactly. The girl from General Hospital is Kelly Monaco. She didn't deserve those stupid comments from the judges.

I'm too lazy to look this up, but I'm interested in this show - what time/day is this on?

[Krista]

Its on wednesdays at 9. I think on ABC.

I agree with the fact that the judges were annoying, but really how many people would say really bad things about Holyfield! He was just awful though. By far the worst "star" there.

Actually I thought that other than the soap opera guy (the middle-agish guy with the grey hair) they were all pretty horrible. Trista was reasonable, but the judges were right about how she interpreted the dance. It looked like the poor guy was trying to do a sensual Latin dance with Malabo Barbie!, it just didn't work. And the the girl from General Hospital was really just very stiff and not very graceful. But again you're right accept for that one "old" guy (who I believe I read somewhere had previous experience with ballroom dance) the whole lot weren't much good at all.

You know, with all of the "actor/dancer/singer" types floating around you'd think that they'd be able to find better contestants.
