none of the 4 girls could sing & their dance moves weren't very difficult.

Early prediction: A guy is going to win this

I thought B wanted Mariel the most?
I'm begining to think that those two might have made private deals earlier.

Rarely post durring the off season of BB but had to say something about this show.... Is this thing for real? We laughed the first 10 minutes through all the cheesy grinning and ridiculous cheering from the audience. Then when they did that sorta kinda boyband grouping thing with the guys that was it. You know a show is bad when you agree that watching Britney Spears arrive late for Court is more entertaining then what you are currently watching. Oh a positive... Kerry Ann In Arbor or whatever her name is looks hot. When the hell is the writers strike over?

If this was an hour, it would have been fun. Drew was terrible.

TexasDeb's comment makes me ask out loud, what is the point of this show? Is anyone being eliminated? What is a Dance War? Are we voting and if so for what to happen?

Now that they have picked the teams I can deduce that the next episode will have each team to a performance and someone will vote for something. But what?

I thought almost all of the singing was terrible except for Lady Marmalade. The singing is so cheesy it drives me crazy. I liked some of the choreography though.

Individually, am I the only one who think Kelsey looks too "hard?"

Chy, Elizabeth (the one with the eyes) is a singer and not a dancer. When she was picked to go to Hollywood, they asked her if she'd be willing to put in the extra time it would take to get her dancing up to par. So her voice was already there (and her dancing is getting better).

The three girls who sang Lady Marmalade rocked it, and pretty much blew all the other groups away. Although I did feel bad for the the four girls who sang "Beat" (that's a hard song).

I was suprised Bruno went for the last two he did. I was sure he'd pick the two Carrie Ann ended up picking. And I'm not surprised for the two who went home. She couldn't sing, and he could barely.

I think next week things should start to pick up a bit, now that the auditions are over, the teams are picked, and the public gets to vote.

As far as the "wars" thing... come on people. It's just a title. Like, I'd say some of the stars on DWTS aren't so much, and some of the celebs on Celebrity Apprentice aren't, either. It's a gimmick, it's a name.

And since there isn't going to be anything else on, now, on Mondays, it'll be light entertainment. These are fresh young kids, and it's gonna be fun watching them grow.

Maybe I am alone, I don't hate the show and it isn't anymore cheesy than a ton of the other reality stuff I watch, IMO.

It definitely isn't rocket science but I was entertained.

The one area I know my opinion differs than many is Bruno. I know that many of you think he is awesome. I think that there are times that he can be funny and charming in particular on DWTS but on this show some of his looks and dancing <100> I think it is probably a bit of overacting on his part <100> LOL

This show just isn't holding my interest. Both times its been on I'll watch for a few minutes and find myself wandering off to do something else. I can't really penpoint what exactly I don't care for, but I just don't care much about this show.

Costa what are we voting for? Our favorite team, or favorite individuals? What do they win, bragging rights, the right to stay on the show, money? No one has really said.

Madelane, I know as much as you do. So having said that, I went and checked ABC's Web site and found:

quote:

After the audition show, Dance War goes live with the top 12 contestants divided into two teams. Captains Tonioli and Inaba will mentor their teams through spectacularly-themed song and dance numbers ranging from Latin to Pop and Country. The fate of the teams is in the hands of viewers who will vote for their favorite group each week. The captain of the lowest scoring team -- whether it be Bruno or Carrie Ann -- will face the dilemma of having to choose one of their performers for elimination. The champions will win a life changing prize - they'll go on tour as the opening act for a major performing artist and a chance to start a thrilling career as part of a brand new all-dancing, all-singing act.


So, just like American Idol, you have to get thru the audition phase before you get to the actual competition.

I liked Maxx and was sorry he was eliminated. <77> Although I really liked Phillip at the prelims I haven't cared for him since. I thought Carrie Ann should have pickd Zach first, but she did say that she was going for a diverse team.

I thought it was very unfair for the first group of girls to have to sing that horrible song. It isn't really a song...more like a repetitive verse. Surely they could have found a better outlet for them!!!

Oh wow thanks Costa...that should be intense!

My Mom loved Maxx but hadn't watched the show yet and I told her not to get too attached, but she still didn't understand. Heh.

Roxip I totally agree about "The Beat Goes On." Yuck.

I am not getting into this show... maybe I'll have to see the next to have a better idea of where this show is going...

There's something very good about this show, I'm not sure the final tv show is that good, but seeeing the kids be so enthusiastic and dedicated is. It's much better than AI because if there are egos, and I'm sure there are, they have to quash that in order to perform well. I thought they all did really well, and was sad to lose Maxx, he was sweet.

Roxip, I have to say, "diverse" does not mean not-white. How could chosing Zach first mean her team wouldn't be diverse? I think that Carrie-Ann and Bruno had agreed between them on who would get which of the several core members, it's in both their interests to have a team that fits well together, rather than just individual talents.

Also, ita about the Beat Goes On. Hard to think that would showcase anybody's talent.

Well, perhaps my use of the term "diverse" was incorrect (and certainly not intended to offend anyone). I just think she went for a more diverse group of people...Bruno's team for me seems more homogenic and tall...Carrie Anne's seems more of a mix of people and also until she picked her last two they were all more of a standard height.

These are just my impressions though and since I don't sleep enough I'm probably just talking crazy...LOL!

I wonder if "matching" people for dance partners was taken into consideration.

Yeah, the smaller the groups get the more matched the remaining ones will have to be to perform well.

I kind of think that this show will have to be fixed. I don't believe AI is fixed, although there are many subtle and not so subtle things to influence the voting, but for this it could be really bad for the show if one team is reduced each episode and the other left alone! I get a feeling we're rarely going to see one team having any more than two members less than the other.

Perhaps they will be allowed to swipe a member from the other team when a side gets down a couple of people.
