Dance Wars Still Bores

I was so hoping that Dance Wars would get better and that I would start to identify with some of the dancers, but all I felt was embarrassment and sympathy. They stilled remained anonymous. -with maybe the exception of Mariel and her touching moments with her sick grandma. What planet is Bruno and Carrie Ann on? What has happened to Carrie Ann's saber tongue critiques and Bruno's hilarious anecdotal comparison's? Did they take an overdose of sugar pills? They were so sticky sweet, maybe my plasma hi-definition TV is fooling my eyes and ears. I thought most of the dancing was like Dance Wars -The High School Musical. The first musical number by the guys-one four letter word-Lame! Who choreographed these numbers? Both numbers were not edgy enough-no excitement to reel one in. The second group looked alot like the Village People with alot of skipping and hopping around on the stage. Maybe it was the song choice? Horrendous and yet so many prideful parents in the audience. their faces beaming with hope and pride, and screaming teens-maybe the network is paying them (one could only hope). As my daughter said Carrie Ann has become the Paula of Dance Wars. Where is the Carrie Ann that we know and hate from Dancing with the Stars. She puts the celebrities would be dancers through the mill with her "you lifted her foot off the ground, I saw you". "your feet are flat footed and you need to hold your upper body straighter". The girls definitely have better voices and better dance moves. The first group of girls were somewhat nasally-will someone give them some nose spray to clear up their sinuses? The second group were more in the line of the Cheetah Girl style. I did feel bad when they eliminated one girl and one guy from the cast. Oh well, too bad, so sad, but they're young, they'll get over it, and there's still American Idol after all. -Single D
