I didn't realize that one could feel so strongly about anything, much less a group of people allowing themselves to be criticized and belittled on television while embarrasing themselves in ridiculous outfits gyrating to music that they'd probably never dream of dancing to in the first place. Whoops! Caught in the act of being snarky.... ;P I saw a few pairs dance Monday night. About the only one I thought much of was the couple that danced the rumba (I think) in the red and black traditional "spanish" style outfits where the girl had an amazing skirt that flowed everywhere and a corset that was barely containing her (not a slam, I think it looked good). I can't remember for sure, but I think they danced to the same tune that the diamond commericals use. She got "banged" for something about her shoulders, but I thought the couple looked and moved amazingly. All the others I saw (and mind I didn't see everything) was laughable. I did feel bad though for Cloris Leachman. I think that female judge hit it right on the head: 80+ years old and trying to dance the Pasa Doble (did I spell that right? Spanish is not my forte) takes a lot of guts, but I still think their dance was pretty lame. I love my job, I get to watch tv at work. I just wish I had control of the remote. At least I was getting paid to watch, otherwise I'd have felt robbed of an hour and a half of my life.... Wow!
