elizabethann Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) DWTS without my Tom? ABC just jumped the shark on this one. On 7/15/2020 at 1:21 PM, MrsGryn said: So...Tom and Erin out.....Tyra in.

MrsGryn Posted September 3, 2020 If there was any chance I was going to record DWTS and just FF to watch the actual dances to enjoy the pros, this cast list just killed it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tlh9 Posted September 3, 2020 Who the fuck even *are* most of those people? And, Tyra Banks?! I honestly rarely even watch this show, but if I was a fan I'd be offended. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magpie Posted September 3, 2020 I see that DWTS continues to take "Stars" as seriously as BB takes "All Stars". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrysana Posted September 3, 2020 I haven't watched in a few seasons...couldn't find a "star" I wanted to see dance. This season is no better and I've never been a fan of Tyra. Of course, there may be limited options this fall so maybe... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elizabethann Posted September 3, 2020 I'm still in the denial phase of grief over the loss of Tom Bergeron. The only star I might be interested in seeing is Johnny Weir. But Anne Heche, really? I'm outie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nixiechick Posted September 13, 2020 Yep, the only one I'd maybe like to see is Johnny, but I don't think I'm going to make it past the first show. Especially since I read Derek Hough is replacing Len as a judge. First Tom and now Len too? But Carrie Ann and Bruno live to screech another day. I get Len's based in London and supposedly will be doing some recorded pieces, but Derek's obnoxious and I just can't with him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
copssister Posted September 13, 2020 Len's situation is temporary - he's stuck in England due to COVID. As if COVID hasn't taken enough - now we're stuck with Derek Hough.....a plague in and of itself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrysana Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) I've looked at the cast of stars again...and think I'd like to see Johnny. I watched some YouTube videos of his skating days and he seems fun. I don't know that I'll be able to get past Tyra. I found her obnoxiously full of herself on ANTM. Maybe she'll lose some of that as she's not a dancer. Losing Len this season is too bad. I like Carrie Ann and Bruno; but, they do fan a bit too much over the "stars". Len tells it like it is. He's awesome and will be missed this season. I have a love-hate relationship with Derek. I have a feeling as a judge it will be hate. Derek is just so damn talented on the dance floor. I enjoy his choreography, of course it helps that he always seemed to get stars who could actually dance. However, listening to him - hate.

nixiechick Posted September 13, 2020 Derek's just so full of himself and smug as all hell. His punch me face doesn't help. You can't tell me he's the only person DWTS could find to judge. Where's Mark? I bet he'd be good at it. Or hell, even Julianne is the better Hough. I just hope Johnny doesn't get voted out right away because of the less than gay friendly attitudes out there. He can be hilarious. Moody, but hilarious. And I'm hoping he gets some input in his costumes, they will be sure to be amazing. His skating costumes were always well done.

copssister Posted September 13, 2020 The idea that Johnny could be voted out before Carole Baskin is so 2020. He definitely feels the music when he skates, so he has that going for him. Not all skaters have that talent (looking at you, Kerrigan). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
copssister Posted September 15, 2020 I actually didn't mind Derek. I completely despised Tyra in this role. Her enormous hair is not masking her COVID-40 gain. Even her earring wanted to socially distance itself from her - leaving its mate behind without a worry. What were the judges watching when they scored Carole Baskin? Wow. Poor Charles Oakley looked like Lurch out there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elizabethann Posted September 15, 2020 I watched and I'm ashamed of myself. It was just wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only star I might be interested in seeing is Johnny Weir. But Anne Heche, really? I'm outie. I forgot it was even on until realizing that BB was sports-delayed tonight. Was Bruno silver before this season? Was Carrie-Ann platinum? Derek is as plastic as ever, but at least it isn't Mark Ballas. Quoted the Anne Heche mention because Anne talked about being black-listed by big Hollywood projects for dating Ellen. Part of me cynically suspects that her casting was in part to rehab Ellen's image after all the behind-the-scenes Ellen show drama. Haven't seen Jesse Metcalfe dance yet, but like so many one-show-wonders before him, I'm not expecting much beyond has-been I wouldn't kick out of bed. I don't think Tyra is bringing the glam and the audience ABC was banking on. Ugh… 1-1/2 hrs to Monday night BB… Time to shift the laundry to the dryer… Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
