I guess I was a tough judge.
The show was okay. Actually I found it to be a little more entertaining than American Idol. I am pretty bored with Idol.
My top couple was Jaeel and Kym. He was outstanding.
I voted for Sherri Shepherd, and Jaeel White. I got through to vote for Sherri right away. It took about 15 minutes of dialing to get through to vote for Jaeel.
Next Monday evening the dancers will get a second chance to dance. The scores from both shows will be combined. Tuesday one couple will be eliminated.
No predications from me yet as to who I think will leave first. I'll wait until after next week's show.
I have created a page for Anna's Diary. It can be found under the Tab titled Anna's Diary.
I have posted all of the entries to date there, starting with January 1, 1929.
Here is today's entry from Anna's diary:
Tues. March 19 1929
Went for lunch at Jean I. with Junior. Rode out to shop for awhile. Stayed there for supper. Jean came from work also. Baby took a late nap and awoke cross so came home early.
Yay, someone else who watches. Sometimes I feel like it is a guilty pleasure. You know I tried voting online. But I guess I missed the part about registering first. I'll have to try that next week.
ReplyDeleteLoved the show Monday night. I have watched off and on for several seasons. Usually the first night is awful NOT this year. The only one I think might go home is the Gavin guy. The one with the hat. Everyone else is really good or has potential. However, a close second to go is the football guy who thinks his gyrations are dancing! Lynda, try voting online. It's much easier. Just register on the DWTS website pn ABC and vote there. I didn't vote this week but ill log in next week and start voting. And Sherry is my favorite as well.
ReplyDeleteI've never watched Dancing, but I will say that this year's cast has more people in it that I actually recognize than any previous cast I've read or heard about. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah...... I don't know the show or the people ..... I love to dance but I don't know about this stuff. I just dance in my head -- RR is not a dancer. It's okay. He is other things - like funny, and easy going, and productive, and independent. Yahoo.
ReplyDeleteThe show would be a lot better if they convinced some real stars to dance. I think I recognized only a couple names in the whole lineup.
