I was also surprised by how much I enjoyed the show. I felt old because I don't know who Jeff or Alan are, but that didn't deter from the enjoyment. With shows like this, so much is dependent on how committed the participants are.
I'm looking forward to the dog act the most, I don't know how they can possibly learn the strength/balance moves in a week.
I think I was a little put off by the little dancers, I think it seemed offensive to little people, but maybe I'm just oversensitive.
