I also watch, especially for Maks! Brandy was far superior to Bristol Palin, so it goes without saying that tea partier are voting Palin in week after week.
I guess it wouldn't be out of line to say that Bristol could win.
If she does, I am not going to say I won't watch anymore because then I would have to say I won't watch Maks and I am not going to do that. When that guy dances, he stretches out so much and exaggerates his movements. It is a joy to watch him. Johar & MrScroogeMcDuck did either of you see Mak's brother??? Wow!!!
Also Johar I haven't seen you for a little while ..... Just wondering what you thought of Zenyetta???
Overall I have to admit I still love DWTS! This morning I really enjoyed seeing the finalists on Good Morning America. The pros always make it seem so fun and though I know it is grueling physically to be a dance pro I'm glad a certain segment of these hard working people get to enjoy success on a show like DWTS. DWTS I think is the best (if there can be a best!) of the type of show that is popular today, meaning reality shows and their ilk. At least on Dancing the contestants are actually learning to do something worthwhile -- dancing is an art and entertaining and physically demanding. So even though we have to put up with the popularity contest public voting part of it, still the show is focused on something that is (mostly) positive.
I will also admit to being glad Bristol P. didn't win because frankly I don't think the quality of her dancing was anywhere near that of the other finalists. It just wasn't. She didn't even look like she was having fun or putting much expression into it this morning on the performance on GMA, with the competition pressure off. Mark really had to work a lot (of course I realize all the pros do) to put energy into their dances, I thought.
Glad for Jennifer, I will never forget the spunky girl from Dirty Dancing or the tomboy/scientist sailor from Wind. Kyle was just plain fun and I liked the Schmerkle (sp?) bucking of the trend of combining names, it was cute.
There needs to be some kind of way to change the voting system. There's big fraud with all the way people can vote. Bristol winning over the dancer that was the best the week before was terrible. Getting all the tea partiers able to vote many more times was ridiculous. Bristol should never have been third. She was still terrible. I was even disgusted at the judges giving her the higher marks than she deserved. I still love the show and hope things are more fair next time. I understand popularity but am really disgusted the way it went. If things don't improve next time, I will probably not watch.
I'm even madder than my "mild" post displays. :scowl: LOL
