They actually call that show "DANCING....? I don't. Most of the costumes the women wear are showing more skin, but that's probably to get noticed more. If you have great talent then get rid of the skimmpy outfits and wear something that actually is made of material not skin! Not all the contestants are like that but boy a whole lot of them are. Anyone out there remember Aurthor Murry... they did ballroom dancing and the gowns were absolutely beautiful. Yep, I'm an old gizzer but still appreciate beauty and you don't have to show everything to be beautiful.08:00 AM

Horrible, horrible lineup. Since when is the show called "Dancing with wannabees, drunks, hasbeens, reality stars, and a teenage girl who had a baby"? Why most of these people are on there is beyond me. Florence Henderson I think is a good choice. Brandy is an okay choice. I would be interested to see how Rick Fox does as well as Kurt Warner. As for the rest of them, repick and start over!09:22 PM

How is Bristol Palin a star? If being an unwed teenage mother making repeatedly poor choices in men (boys) makes you a star, then there are LOTS of stars out there...04:38 PM
