Dancing with the Stars: Rumba and Paso

As John mentioned, last week I was out of town. In fact, I spent all last week at DisneyWorld. It was my first trip there. I am exhausted, but it was completely worth it.

But now it’s back to the real world, and part of that means getting to recap/share my thoughts on Dancing with the Stars with you. I did get to watch part of last week. (My stupid DVR decided not to record Tuesday for whatever reason. And that was a Quickstep night, one of my favorites!) So I have a little idea what happened then.

I do want to comment on the over exposed memo that has been floating around. (I’ve seen it several places today.) Every season when the show starts, they take up the majority of a week. The last two seasons have started with one round of dancing Monday, a continuation of that round of dancing Tuesday, and results on Wednesday. The only reason people are harping on it this time is because of Ted McGinley. And seriously, if you are going to announce that any show he is in is on the way out automatically, then I can’t take you seriously either. (Not that I am too familiar with his work. But still.)

So, on to this week’s performances. (And remember, I am still on East Coast time even though I am back in California. I’m just saying.)Read More »Dancing with the Stars: Rumba and Paso

Disney devoted 5 hours of primetime tv to its Dancing With The Stars franchise this week. The end result was to kick the two male comedians (Ted McGinley and Jeffrey Ross) off the bloated roster. Perhaps they could have done that and risked not over-exposing… Read More »Dancing with the Stars, was 5 hours too much?

I miss LOST

Man, I miss LOST. The new season is still a few months away and I’m beginning to feel like it will never come. It’s a good thing ABC’s publicists are slowly dealing out the love via articles and interviews with some of the show’s biggest… Read More »I miss LOST
