Rush…rush…rush, everything now is such a rush on DANCING WITH THE STARS, it’s almost like they don’t have time now to have the top rated show anymore. No countdown to being safe, now it’s all done in two minutes quickly at the end…hardly suspenseful. The video segments have been brutally cut short so we don’t get to know the couples very well. There is no behind the scenes segments at all and all the fluff and flair that made the show is gone. All the “show” was cut out and all that is left is the…”business” aspect. PLEASE bring back the Results Show!
In the meantime the first to be eliminated in season 17 was Keyshawn Johnson and his partner Sharna Burgess, but even they didn’t have a chance to speak or have their “final” dance. They might as well have called out their names and gave them a heave ho in the rear off the floor! That is the equivalent of how their elimination was handled. Poor host Tom Bergeron was constantly rushing everyone to end on time. He must really hate this too! It’s not working…bring back Tuesday night!
