Across a dentist's office, I saw an issue of People Magazine with a giant pop-up ad for Dancing with the Stars! A male and female dancer pop right up from the "centerfold" ad, cardboard figures standing maybe 8 to 10 inches tall...I wonder how much that ad cost!!!

For those of you who might be wondering who people think are the favorites, here's the odds a couple of sportsbooks posted to win the show... TIA CARRERE 5.5 to 1 GISELLE FERNANDEZ 6.5 to 1 GEORGE HAMILTON 5 to 1 STACY KEIBLER 2 to 1 (favorite) DREW LACHEY 6.5 to 1 KENNY MAYNE 14 to 1 (longshot) TATUM O'NEAL 8 to 1 JERRY RICE 12 to 1 LISA RINNA 6 to 1 MASTER P 7 to 1 (I think the fact that out of all the contestants, Stacy has the biggest built-in fanbase-the WWE shows on USA and UPN have been hyping her apperance for the past few weeks-is the reason for her being the favorite, as so long as she does OK with the judges, the audience vote will keep her in for a while. She does have some dancing experience, as she was a cheeleader for the Baltimore Ravens. I do like the odds on Lisa Rinna, she was asked to do the first series, but turned it down, and jumped at it when she was offered a 2nd chance. Master P coming in late will hurt him...I have a feeling he might be first out because of it.)

Thanks for explaining a little who Stacy is. She's one of the two names I am unfamiliar with. I know that I know the name Kenny Mayne from somewhere, but can't place it right now. Oh, I just read the bios further up on here! I thought he was someone sports-related in one way or another. I could see George Hamilton doing quite well. He has "the look" for it anyway. LOL He might turn out to be this year's Peterman though. He may do well...but not have that fan following. I know that they were going to change the judging some I thought this season. Does anyone remember how the judging will be done this time?

I know the results shows are going to be on Fridays instead of having to wait until the next week (or at least that was the impression I got). I think that is much better and more fair.

KC, one problem Hamilton might have is that he fell a few weeks ago on a friends board and is still nursing hurt ribs..and Kenny Mayne is an ESPN host (he does Sportscenter, but not as often as he used to....he did a really funny feature on NFL Coundown Sunday about a player who had his name misspelled on an opponents scoreboard).. and the judging is still the same-50% judges, 50% audience vote...

Yes Wilson, that could hinder his chances some. You'd think his "movement" might still be somewhat affected. Thanks for clearing up the judging.

I believe that especially towards the later shows, the women contestants have an advantage as they can be carried by the professional males. It is easier to be lifted than to lift. Therefore I would place my bets on a female contestant for overall winner. I think the competition would be more fair if they banned lifts altogether. Besides lifts are not allowed in the Bunny Hop, the most graceful and artistic of all ballroom dances when done correctly.

The bunny hop! The ideal solution would be to not have the men competing against the women, but have a winner from each gender. I never heard of Stacy Keibler before this moment. Are there really that many people out there who watch WWE? Isn't that wrestling? Are there that many people who watch WWE who would also watch Dancing With the Stars? I think Lisa Rinna may have an advantage with her daily talk show, although not everyone gets Soapnet. I noticed on one of their recent commercials she was talking about this competition and her co-host was promising to vote over and over. Soap fans are very devoted and I could see them taking the time to place multiple votes for her. I just really hope people will vote for the best dancer instead of their favorite person. Otherwise they could skip the dancing and just do a quick online survey to determine who's the most popular.

Curlyq, the WWE show on Mondays is usually one of the top cable shows in number of viewers every week...

i wish i had jerry rice for dinner with my jerry chicken. eheheheeee anyway, he is very athletic and when i saw him play a basketball game, i realized just how versatile he was. i was also amazed that his fingers went more than halfway around that ball! he was graceful and good at a sport that wasn't his main game. i am hoping he does okay because i like him a lot. just not as much as i did when he was a 49er!! i was mad when he went with the oakland raiders

My son used to have a life size Jerry Rice poster in his room and I used to talk to it all the time. Maybe that's why he took it down.
