Can we talk about Paige's "sob story?" So, she became a varsity cheerleader when she was a high school freshman, some of the older girls didn't like it so they picked on her. Threw garbage at her. And, her parents moved to Reno just so she could go to another school? Huh? I hope there's more to that story. I don't mean to be dismissive about bullying, I know it's a serious problem. But - Paige was drop-dead gorgeous and a cheerleader. How badly could she have been bullied?
I don't think think a family changes its name (Paige's father was captioned as VanZant and not Sletten, so it's not just her stage...uh, fighting name) and moves to another state because a bunch of girls were mean to a cheerleader. Really?
It probably has more to do with the brother she mentioned in the package. Apparently he's a convicted child molester. I'd change my name and move too if I had someone like that in the family, and I'd yank my child out of the mother's dance studio so fast she'd be turning pirouettes for a couple of hours.
Paige isn't to blame for her brother's crimes, but her story wasn't very plausible. If you're going to lie to several million people, at least put some effort into it.

The chances of Amy, Noah or Heather having a prosthetic "fall off" mid dance is extremely miniscule. No more likely than someone tearing an ACL or an Achilles' tendon rupturing. It has never happened to me in nearly 50 years.
One of Giusy Versace's prosthetic legs flew off in the Italian edition of DWtS, so it can happen. And I mean "flew", not "fell". (No one was hurt and she ended up winning the season.)
I hope Kim recovers her health, but I'm relieved I no longer have to watch her lurch through her dances.

Love me some non-ringers! Unfortunately, they usually turn out to be non-dancers as well, although not in this case. So congratulations, Nyle and Peta! Plus, anyone with the guts to dance a freestyle based on the aftermath of the Milan Conference of 1880 deserves a mirrorball. (I guess I love me some activism too.) Take that, AG Bell! Classy, artistic response to their condescending open letter.
I doubt if Nyle considers himself "disabled." I guess he hasn't gotten through to everyone (yet) about what being Deaf means to him. I have no doubt he'll continue to try.
