Re: DWTS fans, what do you think of the new cast?

  • Pam Anderson and Kate Gosselin- UGH!  Really?   and I'm not really a fan of Nicole from PCD being on there.  She has lots of dance experience.  Not ballroom- but still.
  • The only one i'm excited to see is Ochocinco. 

    The rest, I could really take or leave.  I think DH would be interested in seeing Erin Andrews--well, maybe once or twice, but he'll lose interest pretty quickly, I think.

    And I really REALLY dislike Nicole Scherzinger--there's no real reason--there's just something about her that rubs me the wrong way.  I would have prefered one of the guys from Reno 911 instead of Niecy.  It would have been super funny if the guy that wears the short, tight shorts could somehow incorporate short, tight shorts into a ballroom dance costume! 

    KB--do we know who Samatha's replacement will be (if any?)

  • i didn't know samantha was leaving. wonder if it'll be Melissa Rycroft (sp?) since she was on there announcing it last night?
  • I heard this morning on the radio that Melissa was taking over.

    Interesting.  I don't know how much better she'll be than Samantha, but hopefully she won't do any worse.

  • Isn't it kind of an unfair advantage for the figure skater & nicole whatever her last name is?  They already kind of know how to dance.  Maybe not ballroom, but they at least have some talent where the others might not.
  • I know one thing, I will be fast-forwarding Kate Gosselin.  I HATE her with a passion.  I am not going to give that reality ho any of my time. 

    Erin Andrews is interesting.  I find it surprising, after everything she recently went through, that she is going to be on this show.  She was videotaped nude, people talked about her using her "sexuality" etc, she denied it...and here she is dancing wearing some extremely skimpy outfits.  I mean, come on.  Oh well...

  • Is it sad that I don't know who half the people on this list are? Or is it even sadder that I like Shannen Doherty? I wonder if Tori Spelling is pissed, I have read she really wants to be on the show and they have had Kelly, Steve and now Brenda :)
  • I only know who 5 of the 11 are (which is pretty typical for me).  I agree with Veronica, I will absolutely be fast forwarding through Kate Gosselin - I can't stand her.  I just hope she's not paired with a male pro I like!  I can see possibility that Evan Lysacek will have an advantage as a skater - he's used to the precise movement required in ballroom, and getting counted off if you make the slightest mistake, and Kristy Yamaguchi (sp?) already demonstrated that figure skaters do well.  I don't know who Nicole Scherzinger is, but the type of dancing the Pussycat Dolls do is vastly different than ballroom.  Half of it's popularity anyway - Donny Osmond was not the best ballroom dancer last season (despite his performance background) but he is so popular that he consistently had the votes to stay on, and in the process, did get better at ballroom.  I think it will be fun to see Buzz Aldrin.  I usually end up really enjoying some of the people I hadn't heard of prior to the show - I loved Louie Vito last time, and Ty Murray the time before that.
