So my mother-in-law is over the moon about the television show "Dancing with the Stars" - of course, being a red-blooded American male I can't stand the show. I was, however, watching the finale and saw that Brook Burke won this year's competition. But who, you might ask, is Brook Burke? Very good question. She is most famous for hosting a show about famous people on the E! network. In fact, other than having a very hot body I'm not even sure how she got that gig. All that aside, I wonder how a show like "Dancing with the Stars" can continue to be successful when most of the people on the show are not stars. I mean, Warren Sapp was probably the most famous person this year. Warren Sapp!
Anyway, I think the whole premise of the show couldn't be more boring... "let's take 6 or 7 former celebrities and pair them up with totally unfamiliar (and publicly unknown) dancing partners and then have them perform in front of a studio audience." Wow... so I get to watch uncoordinated people try to dance? Wow, pass the popcorn and local anesthetic.
Wasn't the runner-up this year a guy from a "boy-band"? How did he lose? Doesn't he already know how to dance?
To top it all off, I just saw a commercial for a new show about "professional dancers" who compete to see who is the best dancer in the world . I can't wait. My DVR is already set.

I just wanted to be the first to leave a comment. But I agree with you on this show. I have absolutely no interest in watching it.
And while we are at it, can they find any good writers in Hollywood anymore so we don't have to continue to watch this glut of "reality shows"?
