Dancing with the Stars 8-3: Foxtrots and Sambas

Another Monday night, another round of dancing.Shall we see who has it and who doesn’t this week?

They are making a big deal about all the stars having the same rehearsal time. That’s true to a point. 10 of the couples still started dancing weeks ago. That may not help with the Foxtrots and the Sambas specifically, but it has to help with the partners knowing how to work together and the fundamentals of ballroom dance. Either way, all 12 stars are here, so we’ve got a full night ahead of us.

Dancing with the Stars Season 8 Finally Begins

Tonight kicks off season eight of Dancing with the Stars. Even before one second has aired live, the show was making entertainment headlines. As John reported last week, Jewel and Nancy O’Dell had to drop out due to serious injuries. Of course, we wish them well. Replacements were brought in, but they only had days to rehearse. That’s going to make this first week rough for them. Furthermore, we don’t even know who they are. I’m quite curious to learn who they will be myself. So let’s get started.

I see we have a slightly redesigned staircase and band area. Looks nice.Read More »Dancing with the Stars Season 8 Finally Begins

Dancing with the Stars: Season Seven Finals

Before we get to tonight’s Dancing blog, I’m going to do a shameless plug.  Go see Bolt, then go read my review of it.  Trust me, you’ll love the movie. 

Now, on to your regularly scheduled blog post. 

Frankly, I can’t believe we are down to the finals.  The three remaining couples will do a dance to the same song, then do their freestyle.  While my money is still on Brooke, it really is anyone’s game. 

Shall we get to it? Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Season Seven Finals

Dancing with the Stars – Season Seven Semi-Finals

We are down to four stars, which means tonight is all about 8 dances.  The stars will perform the one of the familiar dances they haven’t done, then another dance from the selection of new dances that were introduced a few weeks back.  Plus, there’s the coaching session from Len.  All told, this should be another jam packed semi-final.
