Dancing With The Stars
This is fun television, isn’t it?
It’s not about cult of celebrity. It’s just fun to watch people who can’t dance learn how to dance.
I love ballroom dancing. Too bad my wife isn’t into learning it herself….

Neither is my wife. She says she doesn’t like to engage in failure-oriented activities.
I, on the other hand, love to dance. I was time-stepping as soon as I could walk and I don’t remember a time when I couldn’t waltz, polka, fox-trot, etc. Now Latin dancing on the other hand…
I keep thinking about getting into competitive ballroom dancing. I do love it. As much of a big fat guy as I am.
This probably shocks some people. Ah well…
One of my all-time favorite pictures is Strictly Ballroom. I could watch it endlessly.

“Well. . .maybe I can spare a few minutes–not like anything else is on.”
It was pretty good. Not up to Idol standards, but I feel like I got my moneys worth (thanks to DVR and fast forwarding through commercials).
I’m pulling for John Ratzenburger, although I’m sure he has no chance.
I thought the Heather Mills thing brought them dangerously close to shark jumping territory. As they talked with her, I visualized them lining up the ramps and checking out the camera angles in the background. There’s still time to step away from the motorcycle, but I’m a little worried.
But the babes are still smokin!
Scott’s link is safe for work, folks, but only if your workplace isn’t uptight. Ai-yi-yi…
Oops, my bad.
[rechecks with “Strict Safe Search” on]
Wow, even some of those are a tad risque. Of course, the thing about Paulina is that even though she became famous as a swimsuit model, with those eyes and that face she’d have been stunning even wearing a burlap sack. Just before her 42nd birthday, that really hasn’t changed.
Self-Righteous condesending rain-on-your-parade insult of those who enjoy tv shows I don’t watch.
Way to go Cliffy! I was impressed.
Another twinkle toes in the making?
Yes I was for Emmet all the way.
Sadly - I was all signed up for ballroom dance classes with the “worm” before he decided to bail on me. At least I managed to get a refund because I broke my wrist and didn’t have to get into the real reason I cancelled the class.

Well, that certainly wasn’t my intention–I wouldn’t have watched without the lure of Ms. Porizkova, but I certainly wouldn’t have commented negatively on it in that event, either–I just found the scenario amusing, and besides, “Heroes” isn’t showing new episodes for a few weeks. . .
I really enjoy this show so much
Scott,
Sorry, that comment wasn’t supposed to be taken seriously nor was it directed at your comment. Sorry for the confusion.
Since every other post on Dean’s TV preferences has a “I can’t believe you actually enjoy that Star Search knockoff” or a “When you finish getting your ‘BSG nerd’ off can we please go back to discussing serious topics” comment I figured I’d add one to this thread too just to get it out of the way.
