Saw the activity here so thought I'd see if there was some news...sadly not. But an interesting thing happened reading many of the posts. I realized that on paper I would tend to agree with many of you who want those A list celebs, not folks we don't really know etc. (Esp what Jimmer said). BUT then I thought about it and my fav DWTS celebs and memories. Before DWTS I had NO CLUE who Gilles or Helio were. I utterly adore them both now. So I decided I disagree with myself lolol. (And sorry some of the posters here too hehe). What I could do without are the P. Diddy's and those painful to watch. I don't mind a Cloris, Buzz or Jerry Springer, but the problem is America has been keeping them in WAY too long. Maybe they need to invent some way for the judges to override America once a season or something, say within the first few weeks. I think it's fun to see everyone try. The problem is when they are staying and decent quality folks are going. Bottom line, I want to keep the possibility of falling in love with a celeb on this show I don't know. And for that to happen, they have to take some casting risks. IMHO that's the price we have to pay for the Helio and Gilles! BTW, I adore Gilles on Brothers and Sisters, and doubt he would have gotten that role w/out DWTS. K...rant over. It was kinda interesting to think about this though and realize what I love about this show often has come from something I didn't think I liked about it lolol

The pros have become the stars of the show. I love watching the dancing and am always surprised at who I find myself rooting for. sometimes I am not familar with a particular star and by watching them on the show I grow to love them I much prefer the dancing on SYTYCD but I enjoy this show

Even tho I live in the Bay Area, I don't follow football. So I didn't know how charming Jerry Rice is or that he was famous for his footwork (my boys told me).

You know, I would rather see a realty star trying to dance than an almost professional dancer compete! That seems so unfair to me.

Hysterical Mame!!!! Lurk, I get your point. I have liked 'stars' before the show who completely left me cold with their attitude and then others who I thought 'oh Lord' when I heard they were going to be on, have been completely enamoured with. Jerry Springer comes to mind as an example. As far as I am concerned, it doesn't matter who the person is, I just like seeing them learn and progress. I want to live vicariously through them.

I started a Season 11 thread and moved a few of the more recent posts over.
