Dancing with the Stars (I) (2005– )

Please Stop The Madness!!! Please!

[5/10 · 13 October 2021]

Isn't this Dancing With The Stars; not Runway With The Narcissistic Star!?!

Between the horrible outfits and poor costume fashions of the host, and poor hosting consistency; it distracts and removes the viewer from truly enjoying the exceptional dancing this season.

Stay as the EP if you want, but find a Host that understands how to move a show along and engages genuinely.

Also, can we not have confetti for everything. Thanks.

Dancing With The Camerman

Much respect and props to the Steadcam operator and their ability to show the in person perspective. They are also the true stars of the show; given the host we have to deal with. Let's have operator moderate the show. They work and move just as spectacularly as the Pros.

Additionally, can we remind the host that it's Dancing With The Stars and not Project Runway With The Stars.

New Title: Jumping The Shark With The Stars

[2/10 · 23 September 2020]

I gave it the first episode, though the lack of quality was evident then; but the show has Jumped The Shark.

Considering what is happening in the world and pandemic, I understand the new format. The Stars and Pros have remained constant and are great. The Hosting is the issue. The quality and connection with the dancing community and audience is not there and it's artificial. The network executives didn't study their metrics and missed the mark and the true value of this show, which was Tom and Erin.

I think we had seen the second to last season of this show given its current format. Please fix
