the ultimate workout!

I loved the show, Bess Motta was the only one the appeared to really into it, Laurie, was a dancer, but she should have a chance at the mike. These two were my favorites. When Arlaine starred in episodes with Laurie, all three looked like sisters. Nicole Nardini and Holly Butler were all right. Their flexibility was a lot like my own, and Annie Schumacher should have been an advance instructor and Arlaine Wright the beginner. Sharon also would have made a great instructor. As for Sue and Leslie, methinks they were in a world of thier own. These two made mistakes in the routine. Music was great, turntable awesome, camera angle was excellent, after alot of people complained, about the angle shots and the blowing of kisses. (I didn't care). All in all, was a well put together show, but frankly, I would loved to see a blooper reel, if there was any. Writer was ok, but I think the women instructors would have probably done better on improv.
