Dancing With The Stars

[Mistyeyed]

i must be getting tired of this show cause im so bored with this season..i usually tape the show,then fast forward through most of it..

[CindyLouWho]

I'm so glad you're enjoying the show, Cindy xoxox

I'm mostly enjoying it cause of Jacoby cause he's a riot, bet he'd made a good comedian but thats ok, he better stick to playing football!!      I also like Ingo cause I loved him on GH.  And my mom is hoping that Kelly Pickle ( ) wins. 

So I've got 1 from country music, soaps & my Ravens on there so I gotta watch!  But I'm hoping for a Jacoby win but he probably won't.

Thanks, I am interested in how the newer professionals will do on this side of the fence .

I didn't watch at all last season so I probably won't this season.  I hope you all have fun with it, though!      indiangirl.gif

I didn't watch last season either and felt they should have called the show Dancing Without Stars. But I am looking at seeing Jack outdo his sister. And I will need to have some sort of Maks-loss intervention. And with Harper having incurable lung cancer I am sure she will get some pity votes and I really wonder if ABC has thought about what if's - because her cancer has hit her brain and has been told she has 3 months tops. I loved her character Rhoda.

Jack may also get sympathy votes because of the MS he is battling , his sister made it to the top three that may be quite a task , but then it is up to the voters

Her cancer is primary brain cancer.  She's gotten a recent reprieve.  It's still terminal but it's not as bad as it was in March.  I could be wrong but I don't think her lungs are at all involved.  The cancer is primary brain, though.

It is confirmed that she has lung cancer and not brain cancer. It is in the lining around her brain.

I forgot about Jack's MS. I remember the old Reality Show The Osbournes and love Jack. I just read this morning that his wife had a late term miscarriage and that is just so sad. I too have numbness of legs and wonder how he will do on the show. I have peripheral neuropathy and sometimes my brain said my leg is stepping forward but my leg just does not cooperate. I worry about Jack's MS as that affects even more - fatigue and he has already had eye issues.

My early fav has to be Keyshawn Johnson! And what I am really looking forward to the Kenny Mayne Dance Center segments.

[essybee]

I think my early favorite is Corbin, i just need to see Bill Nye as a person and not the science guy 

[Squid]

My early fav has to be Keyshawn Johnson!

Oh, no!  Tell me it ain't so!

I spent more than a few seasons sitting in the first row, on the 50 yd line, right behind the Jets.  KJ is a bit of a jerk.  Just sayin'...

[CindyLouWho]

I'm familiar  with most of the "stars" but not all.  My fave already is Bill Engvall, I think he will be fun to watch    He may not go all the way but he's still my pick.  I also like Valerie Harper & hope she does well, hope some of the MTM cast are there to support her!     I'm gonna miss Maks!!   

I like the Kenny Mayne Dance Center segments too! 

[CindyLouWho]

Well it was a pretty good show!  I like the 1 nite show instead of 2!!   

[essybee]

It was a surprise to see Len give anything over a 6  on the first night 

[disneyland lady]

  I'm gonna miss Maks!!   

As part of my Occupy Maks protest I am helping him work on his anger issues. If you talk to his brother just tell him that Maks is more than okay!

[disneyland lady]

I might even watch this year. I know it got a lot of press lately cuz Brooke Burke Charvet was let go. I am really REALLY looking forward to Drew Carey and especially to see Gold Medalist's compete against each other. And Maks is BACK! Did he have anger management classes? I saw his Vegas show 2 yrs ago and it was so good.

[CindyLouWho]

Yea may be a good season, especially if NeNe Leakes gets voted off quick!     lol  Poor Tony!!   

I like the idea of the changing partners later on, that should be interesting! 

I can't wait to see Billy Dee Williams & Drew Carey dance...  

I never liked  Brooke Burke Charvet  hosting the show so was glad to see her go, but I don't care for Erin Andrews either... .

I also didn't like that they got rid of the band, they was great & played awesome I thought! 

And lastly, yesssssssssssssssss  Maks is back, finally!!!!! 

[essybee]

Maks is back  I hope all his issues have been taken care of the cast looks interesting I only have one thing to add  WHAT no football player 

[disneyland lady]

I only have one thing to add  WHAT no football player 

Nah, they used up all the Football players so our very own Ken talked them into having Hockey players. I hope we still get Kenny Mayne's Dance Center. Poor Tony - he has had some of the worst of the worst (including Kate Gosselin).
