What the heck is Tyra wearing? A disco ball it is reflecting off her face. OK, I will be mean, it makes her look like a blimp. A shiny blimp, but still a blimp.

Mike/The Miz is dancing with Witney Better than expected I followed The Miz during his MTV Challenge days, and watch The Miz and Mrs, his reality tv show about his life and family. One think about Mike Mizanin is that he is not afraid of looking silly and he works hard. I don't know if that will translate to graceful ballroom dancing but he will put in the effort.

Isn't 30 the highest possible score? Why are the judges scoring everyone so high? That doesn't leave anywhere to go as they improve!
It does look like there are lots of decent dancers, such will make for a fun season.

It does look like there are lots of decent dancers, such will make for a fun season. Four judges and a max of 10 points each = 40 points Some of the teams will probably get lower scores next week with less time to prepare.

Ahh! That makes sense. I didn't realize that Len was back when I wrote that. (I'd only watched the YouTube videos of the dances and seen the scores.

I guess it's been a long time since I watched JoJo on anything. I was surprised that she's so tall. I thought she and Jenna were great. She's definitely got a ton of personality and stage presence.
Watching the first routines didn't change my mind about my favorites. I'll still be rooting for Melora and Amanda.
Olivia Jade wasn't as obnoxious as I expected, but that could just be because everyone is less obnoxious when Tyra's around. Maybe she has changed, but I'm just too much of a skeptic. It seemed like she was repentant about the admissions scandal and then she started up on her social media and acted like a brat again. I'll believe she's changed when she really proves she has....although I honestly don't care either way.
There have been blind gossip items about BAG cheating on Sharna over the course of their relationship. I hope it's not true and, really, has he SEEN Sharna? She's a smokeshow.
Ah, poor Martin Kove. I feel so sad for him. His routine was hard to watch.
Tyra is still The Worst. I know that every week, for however long she hosts, I will tune in and be just as annoyed that she's hosting the show as I was on her first episode. She's just horrible. Ego-maniacal AND bad at her job. It's a one-two punch of suck.

I guess we are in store for some decent dancing this year. Was pleased with just about all of them. Everything said about Tyra is true. My word, how did she ever get that gig and keep it again this season....all the while repeating the same issues that were complained about all last season. It does not make sense.....a) terrible unflattering gowns b) terrible unflattering hair c) fake voice d) flat questions e) general unlikability.
Who in the heck is in charge of that fiasco???

It does not make sense.....a) terrible unflattering gowns b) terrible unflattering hair c) fake voice d) flat questions e) general unlikability. Who in the heck is in charge of that fiasco???Since she is also the show's exec producer... I would assume she is, sadly. I will say I was pleasantly surprised with this season's cast of 'stars.' The majority of them did well, some overscored (JoJo IMO) but still they did really well for the most part. Martin was the stand out. I applauded his efforts and commitment, hell the man is in his mid-70s for crap sake and has been hoeing his craft on screen since before I was born I respect him as an actor and hope that his time here is not looked at as just a joke, but he did not make the grade. I am in awe of just how good Mel C looks too, always my fave Spice Girl I have to say she has only improved. Girl looks amazing and that smile... it is infectious I really hope she does well. The Miz was about what I expected, I don't have too much to say either way on him here. Maybe it doesn't help I am not a huge Whitney fan. Same with BAG, except I may have expected more and I am a fan of Sharna (yes Crit, she is smokin'!!). Iman was a surprise for me, he was into it and lighter on his feet than I expected. I did feel a little there was a little lacking in the choreography, but like Whitney, not a fan of Daniella at all. I hated the costumes however, that green reminded me of baby poo. Not a good look to say the least. Olivia Jade, she looked good, nice legs, better dancing than I expected. She got lucky in the partner draw, having Val will take her far. I found Jimmie Allen delightful, and he has Emma so win win for me here. Melora looked amazing I only wish she had a different partner. I have never been a fan of Artim, maybe fatherhood will calm him down a bit.. but I would have much rather seen her with a Keo or someone. I miss Keo. sigh. I don't think I could ever say anything against Suni Lee, she's a living doll! All this wonderful attention she has brought to her community too, it is amazing they have got to be so proud I know I just love her!! She did come off a bit nervous, but she had some nice kicks and flicks. Still love the crap outta her. Another good partner draw, Sasha is a great choreographer, they will work well together. He did an amazing job on Simone's floor routine Cody has good energy, some is a bit much at times, but he has a well seasoned pro I am sure she will wip him in to ballroom shape. He was very middle of the road for me however. Love Amanda with Allen, it is another great combo. Not gonnna lie, I FF'ed a lot of the packages but her's I watched and did so knowing it would be super emotional.. it was. I hope she does well, she looked wonderful last night. Agree with Derek, dancing can be a source of such joy and a great emotional outlet. I expect to see a lot of this from her this season. Kenya wasn't bad, but I may have been more into seeing her partner than her. I do love Brandon. Christine was another one I didn't know but she too did well, I almost did not recognize Pasha... that is a lot of beard for a lil dude! Matt surprised me too, I am not avid watcher of any of the Bachelor shows but he was delightful! Lindsey is a great partner for him too, I think they could do very well... bachelor-nation votes aside. JoJo is another one that can be a little much for me at times, ala Bindi Irwin, but ses super positive and not a bad dancer. I love her and Jenna together, of all the pros Jenna has to be in my top 3 for choreographers. When I heard she would be paired with a female partner, I hoped it would be Jenna, they will do well I think. I do feel she was a bit over scored, especially given the slip/fall, but they did a wonderful job. I am not gonna harp on Tyra's lack of hosting ability or say how much I still miss Tom. I am also not one to body shame anyone, but girl... when one has hips like she does the shiny reflective fabrics should be outlawed. It was not one but two dresses in this vain.. neither were flattering at all. If i had to hear her yell and scream something in the mic one more time I was gonna just delete the series of my DVR and watch clips on YouTube, frankly this option si NOT off the table just yet.

Mine is still on my dvr, I'll watch the dancing, mute Tyra, and most of the judges except Derek. It will be an hour show, not a drawn out two hours.

FireWoman I think because it was Jenna who fell/slipped and not JoJo, the judges didn’t ding their scores. Plus, JoJo did a nice job of lifting Jenna up and keeping her on her feet. They generally don’t penalize a pair for a mistake made by the pro.

Do you think the score is a bit high? Yes, there were better dancers. I hate when they do that, it's a bit of favoritism and maybe the producers directing them to support this particular couple.
