It's Over

We've joked, in these blogpages, about my somewhat obsessive relationship with dance shows. It started with the venerable "Dancing With the Stars". But now, at last, DWTS has used up all the hasbeens in America, and they've finally assembled a cast that even I can't watch.

The "Reveal" was tonight. Now, there are 11 of them. By the announcement of the first two, I knew I would be unable to watch. Catch this:


Contestant #1.......

DTWS might have followers of all ages, but, let's face it, it is middle
aged women that are its primary demographic draw. Who would not appeal to middle
aged women? That's right.

Pam Anderson

I'm sure she will be very tasteful.

Another passion of mine is football. However, there are some people in the game whose mouths are just a whole lot bigger than their talent. And which of these will appear on DWTS? You guessed it:

Chad Ocho Cinco

(bad boy of the Cincinnati Bengals)

Lots of luck with this lout!

I tuned out most of the rest of the DTWS announcement, but I did catch contestant #10, a woman who, if I never see her face again (and God forbid I need to see her dance), is the #1 Mother in America:

No doubt she'll drag all those little ones who have
been so messed up by her obsession with fame
(not to mention her hair) that they might never
recover.

Have a great time on TV,

Kate Gosselin.

I won't be watching.
