Ben and Jerry's Karmel Sutra!! Which my danged Ralph's no longer carries! (Which I guess is a good thing, cuz I had a pint of B&J in my freezer at all times when I could buy Karmel Sutra!)

And I'm not missing the point. Obesity is an epidemic in this country. More than any eating disorder.

I absolutely agree with you, Cost, that obesity is an epidemic, but Cheryl is not obese by any stretch of the imagination or definition.
And while conversations like these may not cause an increase in eating disorders, it can cause a shift in how young girls (and even grown women) perceive themselves. If they do not have the self confidence that Huk'd is showing, it can be damaging to them. You can make bad choices with food and not have an eating disorder.
I think it's horrible that Cheryl had to go on tv to defend/explain her weight gain. I have never seen a male athlete have to do that.

a female athlete that plays volleyball/tennis/etc wont show a 5-10lb gain like a dancer, due to costumes and the nature of the performance. I believe that is the difference here.

Anyone wanna takes bets on who/how many dancers are bandaged up/injured this week?

Guesses on dances? Maybe ChaChaCha and Foxtrot? Trying to think of opposite styles and we haven't had the ChaCha yet. Maybe a Samba?

We haven't had the tango. Maybe they are going to do the opposite dance as what they did last week?

I have a question for any dancing aficionados out there... when the men wear those tight shirts, particularly during latin dances, are they separate shirts or are they sewn into the trousers?

I agree with you Escapee. I wouldn't mind seeing Cloris go this week either (though I give her all the credit in the world for doing all she's done at her age.) Why does it seem like more than a week to me since this show's been on? Seems like it's been a long stretch since the last episdoe...but I know it was just on last Monday! LOL

Cloris should have been gone by week 2. All she's got going for her is that she can manage to move without breaking a hip. <100> I don't like seeing her on the TV.

Kitt, most of the shirts are like "bodysuits" with a snap type crotch. Or they were back in the day when I was teaching.

ITA with Escapee regarding Cloris' contribution to this show. I'm tired of being embarrassed for her and fretting about if/when she's going to seriously injure herself when her partner flings her around on the floor. GO HOME CLORIS, so I can finally relax and really enjoy this season. Sheesh!

Thanks Imbewitched! They didn't look to be attached to the bottom half but I couldn't understand how they didn't ride up.

(Yes, definitely time for Cloris to go.)

Just a note on Cloris: Yesterday I watched a DVD of her on Joan of Arcadia. The woman can't dance, but throw her into the deep end of the pool for a dramatic role and she can't be beat as her 8 Emmys, 1 Oscar and 1 Golden Globe can attest to. She blew me away yesterday. I need to go see if she got an Emmy nom for that part.

Yes, she was nominated for that part (I just knew it) as well as for a guest part on Malcom In The Middle that year.

I love Cloris Leachman, I think she's a brilliant comedian, but haven't seen her on DWTS. Maybe it's a good thing I didn't!

Looks like the tango is one of the dances tonight. Julianne & Cody were just on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and Julianne mentioned that they were doing the tango. They also did their routine from last week. Cody went into the dunk tank to raise money for breast cancer.

Thank you, for the info, folks. We've got bad fires, in the LA area, and probably won't get DWTS, tonight.
