  1. Hon, where have you been? That's been the purpose of the judges from the very beginning of the series. They are there only to do the producers' bidding and are not allowed to have opinions to the contrary.
  2. And IMO that was when the first large group of viewers stopped watching.
  3. You mean there are shenanigans involved? Horrors! It was pretty easy to see throughout this show. I watched the series in two days. I loved it through the first 6 episodes and then it started to seem like just another reality show full of manipulation. That bit with Nadia and Vinnie wreaked of it. I ended up liking Aparna and Vyasar the most. Aparna grew on me and it became obvious later on that she was just playing a role. My favorite part was the talking heads with the older couples and seeing the parents. Nadia's parents seemed to be pretty relaxed and didn't seem as much like they were acting.
  4. Same for me! I doubt I would have watched the new season anyway, but I will now definitely blame it on letting Tom go.
  5. The judges have nothing to do with who goes or stays. They are just mouthpieces for the producers.
  6. Bruce and Demi split up at approximately the same time that Sailor was born, so Demi and Christie didn't have to be friends. I think they really did vacation together in the sense that they often vacationed on the same island, the island where Bruce is currently selling a home.
  7. I'm the same age, too, and I'm very disappointed. She was the only one I was excited about.
  8. I just checked the ages again and Sophie is 10, so that makes sense. The next two youngest are Dharma and Brooke, both 11. The others are 12 and 13. I haven't paid close attention, have the winners usually been on the older side?
  9. I love the minds of the people who create this show. They constantly amaze me. Halfway through Season 2 and enjoying every minute.
  10. And that will be the only reason I'll watch next week.
  11. As usual, I'm enjoying the marathon of reruns more than the current show. Still love cutie Matthew from Season 2. :) I'm hoping I'll have a more favorable opinion after tonight's ep and will be able to talk about the newest contestants.
  12. I enjoyed Tonya on the show. She and Sasha worked well together.
  13. So well said. Adam deserved better. Who would have thought Tonya would have the best freestyle of the night. It seems Sasha knows how to choreograph for his partner.
  14. My main problem with Erin is that she's harsh and brash and her voice hurts my ears. Bring back Samantha. At least she made me laugh. :)
  15. Yep, yep, that's what I think as well. I firmly believe that the judges are told what the total score needs to be for a particular contestant, and what kind of praise/criticism there needs to be, and it's up to them to make that score happen. It doesn't matter who gives what score. They watch the dress rehearsals and take notes, so that they're prepared. It's pretty obvious when something unexpected happens, like a fall. Then they have a look on their faces like, crap, what do we do now?
  16. I'm out. My interest started waning when they brought in Erin and her loud mouth and she started overpowering Tom. I really only watch for Tom. Also when they started taking crossovers from sytycd and doing dances other than ballroom.
  17. But a lot of people used up their votes before the finalists were announced, and may have voted for contestants who were booted last night. I don't recall them saying what the voting was for, but I could have missed it.
  18. Haha. Just shows what a mess this season is.
  19. Question. What were last night's votes for?
  20. Of course there's stuff going on behind the scenes, but it doesn't involve changing viewer votes. That's illegal. There is viewer manipulation everywhere, including planning ahead what scores the teams will get, judges' comments meant to sway the viewers, what order the contestants dance in, what music is used, what positive or negative comments are included in packages, and things like the team dances where they can assign the scores they like, and dance-offs. It's all planned in order to achieve a particular outcome, and usually it works.
  21. Mirai was never meant to be on the show. She's lucky she had the time in the spotlight that she had. There was no way they'd let two recently competitive skaters compete together in the finals. Tonya makes a more interesting finale because she looks like a regular person off the street.
  22. She also was not liked very well by the show's crew which resulted in some less than flattering moments.
  23. I would welcome a single season. I think it would lessen my growing irritation with the show if it wasn't on as much. Amazing Race did a few years with two seasons, but I found I enjoyed it more when it was only on once a year. It seemed more special.
