I can't get into this show. I'm not liking Carrie Ann or Brun as much as I did as judges on Dancing with the stars. I don't agree with their selections at all and now I don't think they should even be judges on the Dancing with the Stars. Bring in some fresh judges for that show and leave these two to their mediocre taste.

I was very surprised the shorter blonde gal was left standing at the end. To me, she had the best voice and was very entertaining, whereas the dark-haired gal that Bruno chose can't carry a note. I also felt they left the wrong guy standing last. To me, he was better than the blonde guy that barely made it through auditions.

This makes the recaps on Biggest Loser look tame.

The blonde guy on Bruno's team has some vocal problems because (I'm guessing) he's strained his voice. Bruno's team looked pretty good though.

Carrie Ann's team didn't step it up as much as Bruno's IMO. However, I like the kids on her team better as a whole so I'll vote for her.

Carrie Ann's team really stepped it up on the last number. Bruno's team was ok but he didn't really show case his female singer as much as he could of (she may just well be the best female singer there but the worst female dancer - may be a prob. for Bruno - show case her voice I kept saying). Carrie Ann's 3 women singers are great & may have very well won this round for her.

I think they may have lost me as a viewer tonight with the excessive recaps.

I can't hear the voice, with the audience screaming.

Drew should not do comedy. Overall, he is doing a great job.

First chance I've had to finally see this show. ITA - More background footage and actual dancing and less recaps would be optimal.

Well this is definitely a record and then be able to FF except for the actual performances.

I like Carrie Ann so much better than Bruno.. his shouting puts hime in a category (for me) with Ty Pennington.. where I ff whenever they open their mouths

Trying to vote for Team Carrie Ann but so far just busy signals.

Sea, you too?! I have given up on Dance Wars. Did not watch it at all last night. I like Carrie and Bruno on DWTS, but not this. Waaay too much of them -- over the top.

Ty, OMG! I like to see the house makeovers (actually from scratch). Like you said, ff through his screaming. Does anyone actually enjoy that? Why is it even in the programs? Ty is OK, but without the loud mouth.

Sherbabe, I agree about the audience screaming. It's so loud! They have the same problem on Dancing with the stars... I wish they would do something to make it less, well, loud. It drives me nuts.

Glad to see I'm not the only one giving up. I taped it last night for one last chance and these kids just aren't that talented. I completely agree that Carrie Ann and Bruno are way over the top. There was about 15 minutes of actual singing and dancing in a 1-1/2 hour show. Not worth it and there isn't anyone I care about.

Buh bye, Dance War.

The kids aren't all that talented.

I totally agree about the audience screaming. They can easily turn down the mikes into the audience...they have that much of them there because they think it excites the viewing audience...they are WRONG! Obviously they have control of the mikes, juding from the HUMONGOUS sound error during Carrie Anne's team's first number.

IMO Bruno's team is simply better. Carrie Anne's first choice can't sing on key (Bradley?). Every time he came in singing (and he sang a LOT) I winced because he hurt my ears. And their dance numbers weren't choreographed as well. However I thought their music choices were a lot better. That first song of Bruno's -- GIVE ME A BREAK!

Phillip's (big blonde guy) voice is obviously still struggling. But he at least sung on key.

I like Carrie Anne a lot better so I'm hoping her team does well, but quite frankly I think the combination of Lacey, Zack and Kelsey is a powerful one and will be hard to overcome. We really don't know how poor Chris sings given the mike problems last night (notice that the gave the girls hand mikes the second song?) and I'm just not that into Mariel as everybody else seems to be. The two other girls (both tall and brown-haired) kind of blend together to me -- I know there is one on each team but I'm not exactly sure which one is on what team.

I was amazed to find myself liking Qis best on Carrie Anne's team.

Yes, there are too many recaps but what the heck else is there to do on a Monday night? I'm a little tired of Dr. Phil and Oprah and I can only watch so many episodes of Flip This House.

Agreed with everybody about the audience screaming. I could not really hear the voices at all to tell if they were on key or not. In fact, I almost wasn't sure Chris's mike was actually out, or maybe I just couldn't hear him over all the other noise.

I didn't watch last night, but maybe audience mics were turned up because there really isn't much singing talent on stage.

Okay, the long re-cap was so useless and the rest was so similar to previous group dances... can easily scrap this show and give a much needed break to my dvr recording and with Terminator on the same night I've enough fun..

But can't wait for another season of DWTS...

Mariel is amazing. She should have gone on American Idol. She'd win.

i feel bad about not watching this. there is a hometown girl on there, i think named kelsey. they keep showing commercials with a dance class here from her mom's school telling us to watch. and then show's her family telling us to vote for her team. i feel guilt everytime i see it, cause i couldn't make it past the first show. i had recorded it and ff to the part where her and her 2 friends tried out. i just couldn't make myself watch more.

Kady, Kelsey is one of the very few reasons to watch this show. Mariel is another. Kelsey is just wonderful. But she is not strong enough by herself to carry the whole show.

I agree with many others that the audience is too loud and distracting. I think Drew is a terrible host. I wasn't overly impressed with anything Monday night and the recap was ridicously long.
I miss my Monday night shows.

I also am considering giving upon this show. It is just too cheesey. I love Bruno and Carrie Ann on dwts, but this just doesn't cut it.

I am confused on how the voting off works...if one contestant is kicked off, what happens if 6 are kicked off the same team and 5 or 6 on the other team are still there...is the show over? The powers that be must have an end date for this show...the voting does not make sense to me...am I dense? lol...I wonder if they will whittle it down to one winner..not the team..??
