Dancing With The Stars

what is it about Donald Driver you dont like not one time did you give him a 10 when everybody else have

I have a blast with this show.... the celebrities are always silly. I love to see them grow as dancers... it's a challenge! Also, the outfits are always super dazzling to see. The behind the scenes part is what makes learning how to dance fun. Woo hoo!

Donald Driver and Peta Murgatroyd came out to support fellow "Dancing with the Stars" contestant Katherine Jenkins at the John Wayne Cancer Institute Event. They chatted with StarCam's Jennifer Tapiero about how things have changed on the show, and why this season is more difficult. Donald talked about whether or not he's teaching his wife some new moves and what part of prepping for the show he's exempt from.

I think this is and excellent show. The dancing is freakin' awesome. This show is suprising and we figure out that we have good celeberty dancers. OK this show is about a contestant with a celeberty and try to win Dancing with Stars. Now the only bad thing about this show is that we have to see some good people leave but minus that this is a perfect show. Now there are some really good celeberty dancers like Kyle Masey and some other people. Now the judges aren't annoying so that's good. Well I think this is a perfect show. Kee up the good work. You'll love this show! Overall 10/10.

Sounds like it will be a show to remember. I can hardly wait! Each Season I think I know who will win the mirror ball and each Season (I'm wrong) Bummer! This is one of the best entertainment shows on the tube today. It is also the one show that can take me away from writing my books. As a novelist, I try to stay on top of the writing world BUT I always take a break away from it all when it is time for "Dancing With The Stars." The action is FAST, the theme each week is always FUN, the dialogue is never DULL (you just never know who is going to say what). What a blast! The dancers (both) male and female alike are very SEXY, and just like a great story you are reading the pages seem to turn themselves. Dancing With The Stars get my (2) thumbs up...way up! If I had more than two-thumbs I'd put them all up! I will look forward to more reunions from seasons of the past. Especially, the one with Bristol Palin. I love the Palin family. I think the show should invite Sara to dance now that she isn't going to run for the Oval Office. What do you think? She'd get this fan's vote. That's for sure. I'd also like it if the show would invite Robin Roberts from the Good Morning America Show. I bet she and the "Mad Maks" would get ratings off the chart! And, how about inviting CHER (gosh, she is timeless), and also how about John Travolta or his wife. Kelly Preston? What another high-ratings suggestion that would be. What do ya think? Who is going to be on this season's show anyway? Anyone want to hazzard a guess?

I think it would be amazing to have a Season of 2nd Place finishers...upcoming or next. Think of the viewership of the fans that would want their favorite to have a second chance ?

C\'mon people who watches this show!!! It\'s absolutely crap. I can not believe that this show have 2 seasons.

And the worse part is that fox is planning to do Skating with the celebrities. For shows like this, other good shows got canceled, like Arrested Development, for example.

If you watch this show i would say that you´re mentally challenged!!!!

I'll be surprised to see Maks on the show next season - all that negativity! It even seeped into his partner, who must be realistic. On their last night, her toes were sticking up, rather than pointing out...it was sad to watch, knowing her athletic capabilities. Then there were the f words from them backstage, and his negativity about Derek, who has choreographed such much better dances; really, Maks, he did!

Excellent job by the dancers choreography and the stars performances! Episode 3 wasmost touching! The shows choice of dance topics is interesting, but the choice of most meaningful day of the stars life was fantastic and the most entertaining yet!

Some of the stars are truely good, while some (Chaz for example) need to really step it up or be voted off. I am most impressed with JR and Ricki, who both put forth great effort and expression in their routines. Keep up the great work!

I've been watching the show for years now. I love the music, I love the dancing (well, usually), and I enjoy watching the contestants gradually improve on their dancing abilities...or at least try to! It's a shame that the majority of the contestants are either has-beens or never-weres. Tom Bergeron introducing the "celebrities" never fails to get a chuckle from me. The show would be a lot less laughable if they used normal people as contestants. They would at least avoid the prima donnas like Michael Bolton, who demanded an apology a few seasoms ago after Bruno brutally but honestly slammed his dance.

There's one other thing they should change: audience participation. I'd much rather see the judges' scores being kept a secret until the eliminations, rather than place emphasis on votes from the viewers. It is a dance competition, and allowing the audience a say in the show creates the risk of it becoming more of a popularity contest.

This show has had some amazing dances. Erin and Max's dance last night was cool. Derek and his partner were so good last night, their's was the best I thought last night. Anyway, this show has brought many viewers enjoyment and has brung a lot of talented people into the light. Bruno is so funny, and Len is sort of odd but still is cool and Carrie Ana is always true to her heart. Tom (host) is so funny like when he host AFV. The dancers are cool and have come up with prodigious dance numbers. With marvelous talent and stunning reviews this show could have so many more seasons.

Dancing with the Stars may have sounded like a good dance show, but comes up short on many levels. The show is about a group of people teamed up with famous celebrities and compete in a dance competition. They have to have the right moves and skills to move up and become the best dancer. Idea wise, it's not too bad and sounds like fun, but any value it had is quickly taken away in the first season. I hate how the women have to dress with such revealing clothing. I usually don't mind sex appeal, but these outfits makes strippers outfits look like business suits. The dancing is good for the most part, but there is too much lifting the partner in every dance and some of the dance moves are done wrong. The songs are decent, but they never seem to fit into the dance the contestants do at all. I also don't like the fact that this show is rigged beyond belief. It seems that talent is once again taken over by looks in this show. A good example is the season finale between Kelly Monaco and John O'Hurley. Kelly obviously did a very poor job on the dance she did. I am no dancer, but I have read several books on dancing, and seen a few dancing movies as well. Let me tell you right now that she did so had many flaws in her dance. John on the other hand did a wonderful job and there were no flaws at all. So after the hype, we learn the sad truth is that Kelly won it all, and that's no fair at all. Kelly missed several steps, her partner was clumsy and had butterfingers, for he dropped her at the end. She was looking beautiful, but beauty can only go so far. This show though takes beauty over talent any day of the week. Now I did see a recent season of this show, but once again looks took over talent. Cloris Leachman got a big score and moved on even though she looked good, but danced terribly. This is a huge problem on shows like this, and having this stuff really ruins the show for me and many others. Bottom line, it looked decent enough, but Dancing with the Stars is another one of those shows that takes looks over talent, and should be avoided by any means necessary.

I have always loved dancing with the stars. They always pick fair people. Some that are great and some that are really bad. I reallly was not enjoying Bristol though. She should have gone and never should have made it to the season 11 finals. Always as much as i love proDerek Hough it is always predictable that he will win. The judges are funny especially Bruno Tonoli which always gives me laughs. I really think this show is great and is always very exciting to see the results.

I am not satisfied with the show. I think the judges or whoever selects the music don't know what paso doble, salsa, cha-cha, ect. are. I wish the dance would be matched to the proper music. This way the dancers would dance better when they hear the real appropriate music for the dance they are performing. People who have never been south of the border, who have never heard salsa, for example, are getting the wrong idea of what it really is. I think this program is misrepresenting the type of dances they think they are dancing. And in doing so, I think the program is making the viewers more ignorant about what the real music is, where it comes from, and how it should really be danced. I'm not being critical of how the judging is being done. I'm being critical of the music not matching the dance.

Ok. This is just about as fun as playing with a toothpick. It's is the most boring, meaningless, pathetic, pitiful show on tv along with American Idol. People just want to get a shot at being on public television & humilate themselves. Why don't they just stop with all these crappy shows?

Dancing With the Stars Voting System:



It does not take a Rocket Scientist to figure out what was wrong with the Voting System for Dancing with the Stars. Plain and simple, many of us experienced busy signals when trying to vote. Why did this happen? Simply not enough Telephone Lines available to handle the calls and an inadequate allotted time to vote. Guess which sponsor undoubtedly provided the 800 Service. On line voting is available for a much longer period of time and Telephone Voting should be available for the same time period. The online voting site was also Jammed Up last night (11/22/2010) and I was not able to vote until this morning. However a system where people are unable to vote because of inadequate telephone lines and not having the lines available long enough is simply unfair. Who is to blame? ABC and AT&T! Many people including many Senior's who don't own a computer were simply unable to Vote. This is a fact and it will come to light... Those of you who were unable to vote in recent weeks because of this, should make ABC and AT&T aware of how you feel.

I like this show. I love the dances, the costumes, the music, the glitter, the judges, the announcers, the professional dancers, the stars who take chances I would never take. I also like the fact that you are limited in how often you can vote, it seems a little more fair. I like that no one is the brunt of a joke. I love seeing who is taking a risk each season and I love to watch the best dancers dance. I like to see how the votes turn out and who is the most popular with the voters. I don't care that the dancing isn't always the only thing rewarded. Mostly I like to watch how much the contestants really enjoy their experience. And then of course, I love it because its dance!

I think the show was another fun one! BUT I did appreciate that the judge, Len Goodman, commented that Julianne Hough and Chuck Wick's rumba was more on the too in-your-face sexual side, than the understated, classy side. My friend said it was more like a pole dance than a ballroom dance. Judge Carrie Ann Inaba called it "raunchy", as if that's a compliment, but she's right, it was raunchy. And my problem is, if raunchy is now a great compliment in ballroom dancing or otherwise, then things are going downhill. Hopefully these incredibly talented dancers can continue to keep it entertaining in a classy and respectful way.

Season 10 started with Tom & new cohost, Brooke Burke. I thought she did quite well. I also liked that they moved the waiting/interview room to the right of the stage instead of behind it. There were only 11 Stars this season so it only took 2 hrs in 1 night to see all the debut dances. Each couple had to do either the ChaCha or the Viennese Waltz.



Chad Ochocinco & Cheryl: ChaCha I just love watching her dance & have to remember to watch HIS dancing. I thought he started the night off well & had good rythm & moves. He is tall with really long legs! Len called him a diamond in the rough that needs some polish. Bruno said he was a huge, huge, huge talent. Carrie Ann said there was somethin', somethin' going on there. They gave him 18 pts



Shannon Doherty & Mark: Viennese Waltz She had the moves down but had not natural flow. Bruno said she swung her arms like a primate, LOL! Carrie Ann was really, really impressed & Len said she had an ease & elegance. She got 18 pts too.



Erin Andrews & Maks: ChaCha She had good rythm & the best moves of the 3. Carrie Ann said nice surprise-good moves. Len called her a funky monkey. Bruno said she had zest & vitality & had a wonderful debut. They gave her 21 pts.



Jake Pavelka & Chelsie: Viennese Waltz They danced to "Kiss From A Rose" as a tribute to the Bachelor Show. He did a nice job with a nice ebb & flow. Len said he had great potential. Bruno said he lead well but a bit rough. Carrie Ann was really impressed. They gave him 20 pts.



Niecy Nash & Louis: ChaCha They danced to "Rescue Me". I'm not a big fan of hers so I was surprised at her natural rythm. I thought they had the cutest routine too. Bruno said she was part sassy moma & part born again virgin. Carrie Ann said she was booging. Len thought the performance was flat with nothing happening. They gave her 18 pts.



Evan Lysachek & Anna: Viennese Waltz I thought he did the best Waltz of the evening. He had a nice, easy, fluid flow. Carrie Ann said your good. Len said he had great artistry but to work on his feet. Bruno said he had the wing span of a 747 and moved with the grace of a swan. They gave him 23 pts.



Buzz Aldrin & Ashley: ChaCha They danced to "Cupid". He's soooo cute but not the best dancer. The audience gave him a standing ovation which made me proud that everyone still respects the bravery it took to walk on the moon way back in 1969. Len mentioned his bravery but said he was not too good. Bruno called him a hero & legend but he danced like he still had on moon boots! Carrie Ann called him a cute, little moon walker. He got the lowest score of the evening 14 pts.



Nicole Scherzinger & Derek: Viennese Waltz Wow, she has it all-looks, talent & a natural elegance. Best dance of the entire night! Bruno said she had startling finesse & he was astounded. Carrie Ann said the bar has been set for Season 10. I have never seen a routine out of the gate like that, ever! Len said it was very appealing but lacked musicality. They gave her 2 9's for a total of 25 pts. The highest of the evening & well deserved!



Aiden Turner & Edyta: ChaCha I thought he had some pretty good moves but was a bit stiff. Carrie Ann called his dance disjointed with no flow. Len said his dance was full of everything he hated. Bruno told him he had nothing going on in the groin & that he was stiff. They gave him 15 pts.



Kate Gosselin & Tony: Viennese Waltz They danced to Billy Joel's "Always a Woman". I thought she had weak extensions & technique. Len said she looked nervous & there was no fluidity. Bruno said her technique was terrible & I looked like Tony was pushing a shopping cart. Carrie Ann said she wasn't an actress or athlete so it was all new to her. They gave her 16 pts.



Pamela Anderson & Damian: ChaCha They danced to "Give Me All Your Lovin'". She was surprisingly good but her teased hair was a mess & she still thinks she's the sexiest thing alive even with her aging face! If I can get past her conceit, I'd like her. Bruno described her dance as sex, sex & more sex. Carrie Ann commented that she waited to see her the most & she didn't disappoint but was a bit much. Len finished the show saying the new cast has been brilliant & then said Pam's dance was a mess. They gave her 21 pts.



I think Buzz Aldrin is the worst dancer this season but I hope we, the people, keep him around for awhile. I think Aiden Turner should go home but soap stars have historically done well due to fan support. It will be interesting to see who is the first to go home next week.

The show is very exciting ... gives inspiration for learning dancing and maintaining your body and health in very good shape. I enjoy nice costume designs also.

I don't even know what got me into this show in the first place, but I'm a huge fan, no, a huge addict of DWTS! I've been watching for almost 3 years since Season 3 and have watched every episode since!



Since Season 3 was my first, I didn't really feel that strongly about it. Though my fave was Mario, it wasn't a HUGE deal that he lost. But after that season, it became a big deal! Season 4, Apolo was my fave and I was screaming (like I do every season now) when he and Julianne (who became my fave pro at the time, now is just my fave female pro) won! Season 5, Jennie and Derek (definitely fave pro now), who SERIOUSLY should have made the finals since Sabrina and Mark (my second fave male pro) didn't. But I was happy that Helio won (only 'cause he was with Jules).



Season 6, of course Kristi and Mark! Greatest couple on the show EVER!!!



Season 7, of course Brooke and Derek! Second greatest EVER!!!



Season 8, for the very first time, I had not 1, or 2, but 3 equal faves: Lil' Kim, who REALLY should have at least gotten 4th, if not the finals; Melissa, who I initially wanted to win and was furious when she ended only in 3rd; and Shawn, who, while I finally chose Mel, I had also loved all season and was screaming and jumping up and down when she won (take that Gilles)!



And thanks to DWTS, I have also discovered BHB! :)

My wife has been watching DWTS since it premiered, but I didn't get in on the action until season 5. It didn't take long to select my favorite professionals (Maks, Cheryl, Edyta, Mark & Corky). Guessing the final 4 within the first 4 weeks has become a challenge between my wife & me. She has a 3-season advantage over me, but I've been getting better. We also try to guess what the judge's critiques & scores will be during the performance.



The friendship between Maks & Tom is interesting. Granted, I think it was started by Mel B., but Maks seems to keep Tom on his toes. You just never know when Maks (or one of his partners) is going to catch Tom off-guard. I find it humorous.



As for Len & Bruno, I think they need to add a little more space at the judge's table between them; especially in season 8. Bruno has gotten so excited lately that it looks like he's about to knock Len either off of his chair or into Carrie Anne.

when i heard about this show in the first season, i thought, what a dumb idea for another stupid reality show. well, when i heard that wwe wrestler stacy keibler was competing in season, i couldn't suprpess the temptation to at least check it out. make no mistake, professional ballroom dancing is a sport. the pros are in incredible physical condition and work their a**es off. it's a full time job and a work out rolled in one. and what they teach their celebrity partners to do is amazing in itself. i know that i wouldn't be able to remember all those dance steps, and in less than a week. i was so glad when abc decided to air 2 seasons in a year, i was going nuts w/dwts withdrawl. over 7 seasons and i have my favorite pros, derek and julianne hough(she's also a pretty good country singer to boot), edyta and maks. my favorite celebs were apolo anton ohno and drew lachey. the judges carrie ann, len and bruno are pretty funny. carrie ann is the "paula" of the group, gives a lot praise and doesn't critisize unless the mistakes are obvious. bruno is the "randy", he comes off w/a lot of kooky phrases. len is definately the "simon", british of course, and usually the bearer of bad news. there are 2 "ryans", tom and samantha and they pretty much just blab a lot. every year there's a "sanjaya", the really horrible contestant w/two left feet. and there's always a "senior citizen", someone who you would think is'nt physically capable of the strenuous activity. and in the past couple of seasons, there's been some back stage romance going on. every year the bar gets raised and the celebrities are better and better dancers. some of them are so good they can actually go into the sport professionally. drew has actually done more dwts tours than any other celebrity and has come back to dwts in special performances w/his former partner cheryl. who would have thought, something that seemed like a novelty fill in reality show turned into a national obsession?

this is usually great family show for everyone to watch as celebrities learn new dances and get eliminated. i admit it can be a little boring but its good. heres my opinion on the judges: the young girl: she's nice but very annyoning. the old guy: he's strange but can be funny. the other guy: he's super weird and too enthusiastic. the host: to mcbergeson (whatever) can be funbny and enmtertaining! the girl host: so annyoing! get her away from me!i like that brooke won this season and i am looking forward to see what next season's stars will be! a good show for everyone!

I really enjoyed this episode. I thought Brooke and Derek's samba was amazing. Derek is very sexy. Just watching his hips move is utterly breathtaking. I thought there freestyle was brilliant. I loved the song choice and the wardrobe. Those tricks and lifts were very difficult and they really pulled it off. I especially enjoyed the beginning of it. Lance and Lacey's freestyle was not enjoyable at all. Bad dancing, bad music, and crappy outfits. Yuck! Kym danced really well in her freestyle with Warren. Him not so much. I have never enjoyed his, for lack of a better word, dancing. I don't agree with the judges, when they say that he has a ton of charisma and he is definitely not the only person to connect with the audience. Brooke has, as well as Lance on other occasions. Overall, this was a very good episode.

this show is the second best show on abc following american idol. i love this show alot and this is the type of show that u need REAL TALENT to win which is one reason i adore it so much. a bunch of celebrities compete against other celebrities with a professional dancer. every week someone goes home usually the one who dances the worst. i like to see the types of dances the come up with all the time and i like the fact that they added children to the show whch makes it all the more competitive. the people i root for usually make it to the finals whih makes me happy :D

I record this show for my mom on my dvd recorder (no tivo, wah) and I only have to say that it has its ups and downs. If I wrote this review about 2 seasons ago or last season, I would've commented on how much of a failure it is and is becomming. But thanks to this season of actual "stars" I won't say that (lets just all hope that next season won't fail us). Its way better than most other reality shows but mainly because most of those shows are fixed. If you ask me, I think "Skating with Celebrities" was extemely harder but that was its downfall.

This show has had some very entertaining moments on it and there have been some moments of high exasperation for those of us watching from week to week. We have seen several stars make incredible progress from week to week. We've seen costumes that were fun and some that just didn't make the grade. Several stars have been voted off this season. The first star to be voted off this season was most likely a good choice, as he seemed to be one of the one's with the greatest need for improvement. He had at least one other star with him in that category. That person has lasted through this week with those with more talent being voted off instead. This show has gone into a no watch category with that happening. I won't watch another episode knowing that people with more talent are being voted off in favor of one who has next to no talent for this show.

I really love this show. It's amazing how the couples sweat to bring out a good performance on to the dance floor.

I was a little disappointed that former champions Edyta and Mark were eliminated. Unfortunately they had not talented partners this time. I expected more from Kardashian. My favorites are Toni, Brooke and Warren, from the dancers I like Julianne, Kym, Karina and Toni. Lacey and Lance's finish was surprisingly hot.

I loved the choice of musics of this episode. All in all after the less talented have left, it will be a strong season with a lot of competition.

Did you see the amazing Tahitian Pearl and multi-color sapphire cuff bracelet by TARA that host Samantha Harris was wearing on the Sept 29 episode?
