Dancing With The Stars 4

[DizneyFreak2002]

We all know it will be rigged for Joey Fontone, whatever his name is, to win... The only reason to watch is to see POTC 3 trailer on Monday!!!

Why would you think it's rigged for him to win?

[Figgyluv03]

The hot young guy didn't win last season. Well, Emmit is hot, but he's wasn't as young as Mario and Joey. My votes are still going for Billy Ray . I'm just a little worried because he's paired with Karina and she likes to break the rules!

It is true that half of the score comes from the judges, but the other half comes from people calling in to vote. The outcome can, in part, be what the judges want. However, they only have so much say in it.

Joey has some advantage in that he used to do some choreography for N'Sync and his dance experience there, but quite a few other celebs have dance experience. For instance:

Ian Ziering: has had jazz classes
Shandi Finnessey: has taken tap, ballet, jazz, and gymnastics
Clyde Drexler: Apparently took a dance class in college
And although he has never taken dance classes, John Ratzenberger does have a red belt in karate so he's in pretty good shape.

So Joey could have some good competition.

I can't wait to see what happens tonight! I'm ready for some dancing!

I can't wait for tonight. This is the first reality show my DD's ever watched (last season) because there's no backstabbing or trying to get people into bed. I may even be able to get my DH to watch this season, thanks to John Ratzenburger.

Abominable....more like adorable!!

I have never watched this show before, but decided to tune in this time since Apolo was on. I quite enjoyed last night's show. I was happy that Apolo did very well. I thought that Joey was the overall best dancer. He has great energy and personality. I also liked John Ratzenberger. He seemed to be enjoying himself. I thought Paulina was just gorgeous. She was my favorite woman. I am not a fan of Heather Mills, but I do have to give her credit for her courage to get out there and do that. She did quite well.

[LibertyTreeGal]

I liked John Ratzenberger -- with only two weeks of practice he did awesome what a good sport, and he is really very charming! His real voice sounds nothing like the characters he does LOL

And of course, he is THE Pixar guy.

[Jeri Lynn]

I liked Joey and John....I did not like Billy Ray Cyrus, his hair was in his face his entire performance, he just looked uncomfortable...

I thought Paulina did well, did not care for Shandi and I fell asleep right before Heather danced!!

[cinderella crazy]

I was hoping Billy Ray would do better. He seemed very uncomfortable dancing.

I was surprised by John Ratzenberger. Considering he had less time to learn the dance, he did very well.

Joey just cracks me up! I couldn't believe his mic pack fell off. I kept waiting for it to hit his partner.

How cute is Apolo!? And I can't believe that he's doing this while still training! I thought it was funny when Les commented on his posture being a little hunched over. Well duh! Look what he does for a living.

And I kept looking at Shandi thinking I had seen her before (and it wasn't from seeing her on Miss America). It finally hit me after the show was over. If you ever watch the Game Show Network, there's a show called Lingo hosted by Chuck Woolery (sp?). She's his cohost.

I really loved watching the show last night. I'm glad it's finally back on!

[Figgyluv03]

I'm really hoping Billy Ray does much better on Monday. I was so upset for him last night! I don't really like Karina and I thought it was a bad choice for him, but she's a tough cookie and I can't wait to see him go from the bottom all the way to the top. I saw Miley in the audience, but did anyone else see a few of the cast members from HM?

[Jen0610]

I really liked Joey, Apolo, and Lailas dances. They all did a great job. And Joey never missed a beat, with the mic pack mishap. With the exception of Billy Ray, they all did very well. And Billy Ray... I really didn't think that he would have been that bad. Hopefully it was just a BAD case of nerves, and they are done and over with.

I have to admit I will be rooting for Joey Fatone since I was (& still am) a fan of N'SYNC. I thought he did really well. I also like John Ratzenberger. I would be happy if either one of those guys won. I really watched Heather just to see if her leg would fall off. I wish they never let her on the show. To me, she isn't a "STAR".

[Figgyluv03]

I like the fact that Heather is danicng with a Jonathan, since those are mine and my boyfriend's names . They will have get chemistry!!

[Melanie]

I thought John Ratzenburger did great! My son (and huge Cars fan) said he also did great "for a truck who carries a race car".

I was genuinely surprised by Joey. I was never, ever an N'Sync fan, but I really liked him last night. He's got a great partner in Kim.

I think having Karina as a partner will hurt Billy Ray. Yet again, she's trying to skirt the rules. You think she'd learn.

Apolo - woohoo! I really hope he does well.

[NotaGeek]

I decided I couldn't watch this season. Too much reality TV on my plate, but I am living it vicariously through you guys!

[indytraveler]

Having missed season 1 but watched the other three it's always interesting to see who goes first. It's ususally the worst dancer with no name recognition. However, Jerry Springer lasted a long time last season. Billy Ray does have some name recognition through his daughter now. Watching the season unfold is interesting to see the stars improve their dancing. Should be a good group. No front runner yet except Ian or Joey.

[cinderella crazy]

I wonder who's going home tonight. I'm guessing it will be between Billy Ray, Heather (just doesn't have the fan base that some others do), and Shandi (same reason as Heather). But you never know; it could be Joey (okay maybe not ).

[Christine]

DD and I watched last night for the first time ever. We really enjoyed it! It is nice to have a show that my 7 year old can watch with me (except I have to turn the commercials off sometimes when they are scary!)

DD is rooting for Mohammed Ali's daughter. I think Ian is doing very well, but don't have a 'favorite' yet.

Can't wait to see more tonight. Will they develop a more "normal" schedule, or do they show episodes 1-2 times a week like this?? I don't want to miss any!

Actually, last week was the unusual one. Normally they will dance on one day, then have the results show the next day where someone will get kicked off. Don't expect much dancing from the stars tonight. If it follows the past seasons, they will have a judges favorite dance the same thing they did last night, followed by a lot of filler, then at the very end of the show, they'll let you know who gets kicked off. The pattern of Monday/Tuesday night should stay the same, although it won't always be two hours long as the dancers thin out.

I also agree, it's the one reality show that I'm comfortable letting the whole family watch. It's all positive, hard work.

[Figgyluv03]

I was very pleased with last night show!!! I think they all did very well, especially my favorite cowboy! I was very impressed. I just hope Karina will her stick to the rules!
