A Conclusion to a Review of DWTS - Second Episode - Season 22 - March 28-16 - ABC 8PM

     Last night Geraldo Riviera went home so his gorgeous partner - Edyta Slivinska had a short run this season - still they both earned close to a reported $125 thousand dollars.
     Since Geraldo Riviera makes tons of money from a lot of different sources - maybe he can contribute some of his high fees to some worthy causes - especially in view of the fact that he mentioned his left foot being totally numb as a result of his back surgery which might excuse his lame dancing. That reminds me of my ex-Latin dancing instructor - ex-Latin champion - hot in Chicago for a long time - whose name I will not mention but who frequently talked about his back surgery so the moves he taught were easy for him to execute.
     The third MC - Erin Edwards always wears extremely high heels which make most dancers standing next to her look like midgets - furthermore - since she is not dancing or judging - she could - definitely - cut her commentary - a bit shorter - since we prefer to look at the dancers.
     Marla Maples did a beautiful Tango with a super dancer/choreographer - Tony Devalani; even if the music could be better - they were - nevertheless - underscored by the judges - the second week in a row.


      Have a great week everybody! Don't forget to click here next Monday and Tues - Apr. 4 and 5 - 2016!

A Preview of the Second Show - Mon. March 28 - 16 - DWTS - ABC 8PM.

     The vast improvement in the second show of the season of DWTS - would be a better music selections for the main theme of the show - Latin Dancing.
     The first couple of the night - Jodie Sweetin and Keo - performed a tremendously well choreographed Samba which was way - underscored - by the judges - again.
     They seem to underscore some dancers while they - consistently - overscore and praise - some others. Last week - Ginger Zee - was - overly complemented for her average performance plus the viewers complained on a Facebook forum that they received too much needless information about Ginger Zee breastfeeding her infant - we agree - TMI - this has nothing to do with her dancing.
     Look for our conclusion tomorrow since now - a couple needs to go home - we predict that it will be Geraldo and Edyta who tonight did a parody on Donald Trump and his wife - Melania which went over like a proverbial - led balloon.
     At any rate - please - click here for our conclusion to this week's preview! Enjoy tonight's show!

A Conclusion to a Review of Premiere Episode 1 -Season 22 - DWTS - March 21 - 16. ABC - 8 pm.

     Last night's premiere show of DWTS was a bit disappointing but not a total loss of time. As usually - we will give you the bad news first - then you will get some decent impressions. The music chosen for the two Tangos was boring and uneventful. For God's sake - out of all the gloriously sounding Tangos available to the producers - they can pick some more melodic and better sounding - pieces - for sure than the boring ones they chose last night.
    One of our favorite dancers - Edyta Slivinska - A Polish dance superstar did a terrific job on her lame Cha-Cha since her partner - Geraldo Riviera was barely moving - not even mentioning the verb - dancing. We predict that he will be gone first.
    The next one to go will probably be Kim Fields who didn't dance good at all - but the judges - for some obscure reason praised her moves - in their scores - however - they were fair.
     Sharna Burgess and her partner - Tony Brown moved and looked very well which was not the case of Ginger Zee - a weather forecaster who for some mysterious reason got too many praises of every kind from the judges for her very average dance number. The Facebook forum has some viewers commenting about it - how the judges - sometimes - start to "pick" the winners from the very beginning - which they shouldn't do since they need to be fair to other contestants.

    Don't forget to click here next Monday March 28 - 2016 for our next review of Episode 2 - Season 22 - of DWTS!
    Have a great week - everybody!

A Premiere of DWTS - Season 22 - ABC 8pm - Mon.March 21 - 2016!

   Tonight's line up doesn't promise anything particularly exciting but all of us are watching - to check. Marla Maples looks very good - hopefully she will dance the same way with our all time favorite - Tony Davalani. On the other hand - Kim Fields our favorite starlet from the eighties TV show "Growing Pains" - got to be big looking like a mini "tank" - hopefully - she will shed some pounds - dancing with Sasha Farber - her pro dance instructor.
   Edyta Slivinska - a gorgeous Polish dance ex-champion was paired up with a sensationalist headline grabber - Geraldo Riviera - we'll just have to wait and see about his dancing.
   Jodie Sweetin from the "Fullhouse" series looks attractive and fun.
   The opening number looks slightly disorganized but it's a live show. Let's watch and click here tomorrow for our conclusion to the preview - however - the first number - Cha-Cha by Kim and Sasha - didn't look so hot at all.
    An any rate - click here tomorrow for a conclusion and have fun watching tonight!
