Is this the most lackluster Dancing WTS cast ever?

I know they're supposed to be b-listers...but geesh, two weeks to go and does anyone care?

My darling wife certainly does. I've lost most interest since I discovered there's a REAL dancing show out there -- So You Think You Can Dance is so superior to this schmaltzfest that I can barely stand to watch anything except Julianna Hough.

It always makes me chuckle when I hear the celebrities say they practice 18 hours a day. Most of the routines are so easy. They get paid about $20,000 a show to appear. The pros make only about 5000-10000. I enjoy the costumes and the little kids the most.

I cared deeply about the last one because of Kristi Yamahuchi. With just a little more practice, she coulda been one of the pros!

This one, I love Warren Sapp, but holy cow! One misstep and he could squish his partner like a bug. He should get most improved.

I'm with you - and it's worth noting that one of the "pros" (Lacey) was a contestant on SYTYCD (she may even have won). elwing likes to watch it, though, so I record NCIS and Fringe for later viewing.

It is one that I have asked my dvr to record.

I have skipped over them - tells me something. When I erase them without watching - that will tell me something else.

Yes.

I'm so bored I have nothing to say.

Lacey Schwimmer finished 4th, IIRC. Her brother, Benjii, won the second season (though he was likely only the third best dancer that season.)
