Maks in salmon and Ali’s promo: ABC at its finest

The Dancing with the Stars opener shoved us down memory lane reminding us of last week’s booting of Captain Twinkle Toes and how he refuses to go on national TV without crying.  Someone brilliant in the graphics department super imposed the picture of a single rose over his head that graphically beat him to the ground as he’s thanking his fans in Canada for voting.

I laughed.  Out loud.  Some intern is being fired right now, but it was worth it.  Note to intern:  Kudos to you man.  Call me.  I’m in the creative business.  I like people like you.  You’re funny with just a dash of sarcasm.  You will go far my friend.  Live long and prosper.

Here are a few things we learned on tonight’s show:

1.  Maks can make the color salmon look manly and hot.

2.  Evan has the sweetest spirit and is adorable.  And I love AHna too.

3.  Group dances with the “stars” and their pro partners are lame.

4.  According to the Bachelorette promo, Ali is ready to find love.

I say pick the dude who does a back flip off of the limo about halfway through the commercial.

What do you say readers? Were we really shocked when she fake cried in the hotel lobby, flung herself to the ground and shouted, “Whyyyyyyyy?????” to the ceiling? Did America really hate that she didn’t get a second chance with Jake? Do you think she watched DWTS and conclude that Jake is a total tool bag? How can Maks wear a salmon tuxedo and still be so hot?

My inquiring mind wants to know.

I, for one, did not hate that she didn’t get a second chance with Jake. And I would def also go for backflip boy!

I absolutely loved the rose beating down on emo-boy’s head!!
Maks would look hot no matter what color he was wearing, but he knows that.
I’m so looking forward to your reviews of Ali’s season. 🙂

It’s crazy last season I couldn’t stand Ana, but this season she seems like a whole new person to me and I like her.

How did I miss backflip boy?

I love niecy!

when the promo was all like last season you fell in love with her on the bachelor, your heart broke when she didn’t get a second chance blah blah blah. I was like, “It did?” ABC stop trying to put feelings into my heart!

I’m curious why ABC seems to think you need to have long hair to fall in love..I read somewhere Ali got hair extensions for the show. Now she can wear it in an even longer messy ponytail everyday…

Ii haven’t watched last night’s show yet but I absolutely cannot wait for the rose beating. A huge High-5 and fist-bump to the ABC intern. And I get that Maks is hot…..but when you act like you KNOW you’re hot, the hotness factor is diminished a bit for me. Looking forward to the salmon tux though.

I HATE olive green, Lincee, and I would still think Maks was hot if he was wearing it….because he’s Maks. That quickstep with Erin may be my favorite choreography of his EVER.

LOVED LOVED LOVED THAT OPENING!!!! Way to go intern! I knew you’d comment on that for sure! That was my fav…and also Evan and Anna’s Argentine Tango….HOOOOOOT….SOOOOO HOT..FLOOR WAS STILL ON FIRE WHEN THEY LEFT IT!!!!

I’m over Nicole. Never was really a fan about her on here anyway. She can go ANYTIME and I won’t be sad. Max Max Max….yum. But stop with the tantrums please.

Did anyone notice Deanna’s Jesse sitting behind Len last night? I think there were a few other former Bachelor’s too, but not sure of thier names anymore.

I thought last night was one of the better DWTS! Every couple danced extremely well. (In order of which they danced)
1. Yes Mak is YUM. MMY. But his bad boy, arrogant attitude is a little much. It’s supposed to be about Erin, Sooner or later he will lose votes for her. Awesome dance! I’m a big Erin fan and love Mak for his pecs and face but other than that I wouldn’t like him.

2. Cherly has always been my favorite pro. She really can make dancers out of some of these smucks and she has done it again. Her and Chad together are so cute. He really cares for her and I sense he really cares for getting better. Go #85!

3. I could not believe that Carrie Ann said Nicole was the best dancer they have had on the show. Well of course she is because she IS a dancer! That declaration probably lost her the title because everybody wants a likable underdog to win. I know several of you do not like Nicole and think she is full of herself but I am a fan.

4. Oh Pam….your sex kitten routine has become too much! I have been impressed how well you dance but…. it’s time to go!

5. Nicey!!! I voted for her just to keep her around for entertainment value. I loved how excited she was in the post dance interview. You go girl!

6. I was a little worried that Evan was not going to pull off the “take charge” attitude but he did! Great dance! The move of the night – Ana doing the splits on Evan’s shoulder as he is spinning around…WOW!

I feel Pam’s time is up!

If it weren’t for Lincee’s blog I would already be dreading Ali’s Bachelorette season. She bugs. I am kind of looking forward to seeing the guys ABC found for her. I hope it’s full of either ‘roid-rage guys OR total cheese-asses. 🙂 That would make me smile. Watching her sludge through a group of total losers would make it semi-entertaining.

I can’t believe I missed the opening, sounds like the best part. Maks is such a drama queen that its hard for me to see him as hot. I do love Erin though. I love Evan and Anna. I think Nicole is a good dancer but can’t bring myself to vote for her because I think she already was a dancer. And something about her bugs me, can’t quite figure it out. I missed the amazing race sunday night , too many things going on this time of year, are the cowboys still on?
