DWTS Week 3 Results: Bye Bye Drew

Posted on October 9, 2007 | 2 Comments

I had no idea Samantha Harris was coming back next week when I wrote last night that “Drew Lachey should be next season’s host if the decision were made based on merit”. I thought he was filling in for the season and Samantha was coming back for the next… oh well.
I like Jennie and Derek’s Argentine Tango more now having seen it for the second time. Also it’s interesting that some couple did the International Tango while some did the Argentine version. Wonder if ABC decided it or the pros did.
Wasn’t it funny that the lowest scoring female celebrity on Monday night still got higher score than the highest scoring male celeb? Soon this will be a no men’s land… no men’s left… Continue reading →

DWTS Week 3: Music, Host, and more

Posted on October 8, 2007 | 2 Comments

Random thoughts:

Music selection seems to have improved this season. For dramatic dances like Tango and Paso Doble, good music is extremely important because it can effectively mask the weakness of the dancer and make their dancing *look* more dramatic than they actually are.
Drew Lachey should be next season’s host, if the decision were made based on merit. Continue reading →

DWTS Week 2 Results: Fan Base, Redux

Posted on October 2, 2007 | Leave a comment

First, the no-surprise, I called it first here last night, Mark Cuban would be safe. Glad that America rewarded the hard worker.

Now the shocker, but, to think of it, it really wasn’t one. My week 1 result recap was subtitled “Fan Base”, where I said “fan base is always a big factor in the first week”. Well, guess what, the second week is not much different from the first. Continue reading →

DWTS Week 2: Cuban

Injustice #1:

Helio had little to none hip action. The choreography covered that up really well so it didn’t show. He got 27 the highest of the night which was very undeserving in my opinion.

Injustice #2:

Mark Cuban was decent in his Mambo. I thought of the three men dancing Mambo his upper body action was at least the second best. And his footwork was pretty good too. Continue reading →

DWTS Week 1 Results: Fan Base

Posted on September 26, 2007 | Leave a comment

No surprises. Josie went home, as I expected. Like she said in her clip, “being a model you only need to look good, you don’t have to train the strength”, and Alec summed up “(she is) deceptively unfit”, I don’t think many people were shocked that she’s gone.

What was a little surprising was Mark Cuban was the bottom man, not Floyd. Considering their physical talent and body attributes, I would think Floyd should’ve danced a lot better than Cuban, but in fact he did worse. Fan base is always a big factor in the first week. Continue reading →

DWTS Season 5 Opener, the Men

Posted on September 25, 2007 | Leave a comment

Two things I didn’t expect to happen happened tonight:

1. Mark Cuban is better than I thought.
I like how he said he’s doing this for his little daughter.

2. Helio Castroneves is way better than I thought.
Before the show I was saying to my hubby that a race car driver would have nothing but upper body strength, when lower body is probably the more important portion in dancing. It turns out that Continue reading →

DWTS Season 5 Opener, The Women

Posted on September 24, 2007 | 3 Comments

Three things I liked the most about Monday’s opening night show:

1. Co-host is no longer Samantha Harris (I don’t dislike her but she’s just not been a very good co-host). Instead it’s Drew Lachey which I think played off Tom very well. The Len’s assessment joke came very natural and cracked me up. He also related better with the celebrity dancers, being a former contestant himself, as a result asked more sensible questions.
