Dancing with the Stars started season 21 with a huge Bang - not necessarily all that Dazzling! A Quick Review of the recap show - Tues. Sept. 15 - 2015.

       All the fanatics of Ballroom dancing and dancing in general - always expect the new season of Dancing with the Stars to bring some new excitement. As far as the judges go - this season - Len Goodman was not contracted since the show - probably - wants to attract younger audiences. So You Think You Can Dance - dance show also tried to grab all the youngsters this 12th Season which just ended - however - according to ratings - that strategy - backfired big. They not only didn't get any more youngsters than they usually get - but a lot of viewers of diverse ages - expressed their big distaste - on the social media platforms - for the new, youth-oriented format - Stage vs. Street.
      Last night's show of DWTS - had some confusing moments - mainly connected with Gary Busey and his professional partner - Anna Tribunskaya who was doing all the fancy dancing while Gary Busey - unfortunately - came out looking grotesquely - unreal. We couldn't decide is he was slightly drunk or stoned. Either way - he didn't present to millions of people watching that popular show - any positive or attractive aspects of his persona.
      Tom Bergeron - one of the long time M.C's couldn't hide his slight sarcasm towards Mr. Busey - which was only mildly funny. Speaking of the MC's - Erin Andrews - the famous lady sportscaster - the other MC - needs to infuse more pep into her presentations. 

      Cat Deeley - the famous Mistress of Ceremonies on So You Think You Can Dance - has received a lot of negative comments at the beginning of the season - regarding her exaggerated, fast and hyper - presentations - so she toned down - and started to sound much better - even if her various types of clothing articles and humongous high heels - could be - in a better taste - as well. Erin - however - needs to get some life into her gig since during the last night's show she appeared slow and boring.
      Carrie Ann Inaba - a long time judge - an enormously beautiful dancer/choreographer - might - probably - subdue her excessive admiration for young male dancers since we all saw how the viewers poured a stream of mean-spirited comments towards Paula Abdul - a dancer/choreographer, an ex-judge on So You Think You Can Dance - when she made tons of "sweet eyes" - as if the TV cameras didn't broadcast it all over the "world" - towards  some divinely handsome, young male dancers - with a big percentage of them - gay.
       We need to mention a famous, long time Dancing with the Stars - judge Bruno Tonioli - a famous dancer/choreographer - a handsome, knowledgeable authority on dancing - whose humorous, "on target" - comments - delivered in sexy, Italian accented - but excellent English - are most of the time - fun and informative. He looks the same way for the last ten years. Perhaps some discreet doses of facial Botox keep him eternally young looking?
      At any rate - watch the next Monday and Tuesday - Sept. 21 and 22 - 15 - respectively - since tons of dancers will be eliminated - so don't forget to click here for a brief review.

      Have a great week - officially the last week of summer and the beginning of new fall!
