Do you think the judges praise some dancers abundantly because they just love their personality and are more harsh to others?
Sometimes I think the judges' assessments are inconsistent or driven by who they want to win the show. With a few dancers, even if they do horrible in the dance (don't match the mood of the dance or they make a misstep), the judges rave on and on about how much they love them. Then there are others who do well, but were off a bit and the judges massacre them on the stage.
Do you think the judges are fair with their critiques?
Do they expect too much from some?
Do they say tacky things? (My roommate says that Mia can be very tacky with her comments)
What's your opinion?

The judges are absolutely biased and unfair with a number of their comments. This show is about dancing and they're constantly ignoring some EXTREMELY weak dancing because they like someone's personality. And then for someone like Billy Bell who is technically AMAZING at dancing, they are so harsh on him, claiming he doesn't connect and things like that. I know for a fact though the judges are told to say some things by producers though. I just can't say why I know this.
