First thing I did when the Comcast guy set up the cable was DVR “Dancing With the Stars.” I realize this seems like perfectly normal behavior for me, but surprise! I’ve actually never seen an episode before.
But this season’s cast is absolutely loaded, and I don’t mean in the Gilbert Arenas way. (Speaking of criminal athletes, though, how stupid do the Steelers look right now? Dennis Dixon, really? Not to mention that Tomlin said Big Ben isn’t guaranteed his spot when he comes back. Let me explain something to you: When your star QB rapes a girl, the only reason you bring him back is because he’s irreplaceable. You don’t create a quarterback controversy before the season starts. Why do people continue to act like Tomlin is a good coach? He’s really overrated and makes a lot more mistakes than people realize). Anyway, what I was trying to say was, there are a lot of sweet people on the show this season:
The Cast:
Audrina Patridge - Yes, this is THE Audrina. Say what you want about The Hills, like how good it is for example. But don’t tell me for one second you weren’t mesmerized by Audrina every time she was on screen.
Brandy – Brandy’s still cool, right? She made a brief appearance in our lives with The Boy Is Mine in 1998 and then just bounced. Looking forward to getting to know her better.
Bristol Palin – Doesn't she have a baby to look after or something? What almost happened to this country?
David Hasselhoff – Apparently he is in the Guinness Book of World Records as the Most Watched TV Star of All Time, or something.
Florence Henderson – Never heard of her. See ya lata.
Jennifer Grey – Remember her from Bueller, that’s about it though.
Kurt Warner – I love Kurt Warner. I mean who doesn’t? Nice guy. MVP quarterback. And when he threw that ball to Ty Law I don’t think I had ever been so overjoyed in my life.
Kyle Massey aka Cory Baxter from “That’s So Raven” – This was and still is the funniest Disney channel show of all time. Every single time Raven raised her eyebrows, looked into the camera with those googly eyes, and spoke in that ridiculous voice she had, I was on the floor laughing.
Margaret Cho – Bye
Michael Bolton – Not exactly my cup of tea but I recognize talent when I see it. This man’s got chops.
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino - And the other shoe finally drops. The truth is that one hour per week on the Jersey Shore isn’t enough Situation for me. And there are just so many questions going into this show. Does he wear an Ed Hardy T-shirt? Does he just start grinding up on his partner halfway through the dance? What happens to Ravioli night back at the Shore? I can’t even contain myself right now.
