Sure she does, just not to that extent. But she always comments on the hottie dudes and she and Kevin are always joking around in a bit of an R-rated manner.


And I called it - Len called Drew Scott gangly! He must have read what I posted the other day.


Sorry to see Alan go (Debbie Gibson not so much). At least we'll get to see him dance in the group numbers.


My faves are Nikki Bella (just love her) and Derek Fisher and Vanessa L.


No one I really don't not like, but some are just meh. I'd prefer to watch the pros dance. The DWTS touring show was great (2 years ago with Maks/Val, et al.) and Maks/Val's show last year was also terrific.

LOL, I think I watch the show all wrong. I basically just watch the Pros. Guessing I'll never make it to the Judging Panel.

Same here. I still have bad memories of Amber Rose's "salsa" from a few seasons ago. That was no salsa, just bootie shaking and twerking. But then again, every dance she did seemed to revolve around her copious behind.

I said square dancing because it seems like there's alot of movement swinging and dancing, and he has a lot of energy to put into that type of dance.
There is, but it takes a long time to get to the point where a newbie is comfortable not just with executing the calls, but with putting some style into it. I never took a MSD class (although I probably should, at least through the first level). I do Contra (like squares, except we work in long lines, and most dance events utilize walk-throughs) and Eastern Squares, which also utilize walk-throughs, so I see my share of beginners. There are some who think these dances are an opportunity to display carefree abandon because of the music and the movement (we literally use the entire floor).

I've never seen a Challenge level SD done, but from what I have read about them, you need an Engineering degree to do them well. Too hard for me! If I have to think about what I am doing, that takes the fun out of it!

Wasn't Mark Cuban, who is also on Shark Tank, once a contestant on DWTS?

LOL. Yes -- and his partrner was none other than Kym Johnson, the one who married her partner Robert Herjavec.

Mark was on the Fifth Season of DWTS in 2007, before his Shark Tank days. He was eliminated fifth and, in my opinion, he stayed on much longer than he should have. But he had a good attitude and that probably kept him there a couple of weeks longer. Too, as I recall, he was probably the only star who ever took notes.

IIRC he was also coming back from hip replacement surgery.

The most interesting thing about last night's show was the fact that Maks was missing-in-action due to what Tom called "a personal issue". I googled it and found that Maks apparently cant get along with his partner Vanessa. Remember the tension between Maks and Hope Solo -- that was understandable because no one can get along with Hope. But Vanessa?
