First Week of Season 11

So the first week of season 11 has been shot and broadcast. The voters voted and now the viewers wait until tonight to find out which celebrity has danced their last dance. I will admit that I was pretty shock that Bristol Palin was not as stiff as I thought she would be and Kyle (from the Disney show) was pretty entertaining and good. Rick Fox really surprised me, I thought he was going to heavy footed or stumble all over the stage. As for The Situation, I'm going to reserve judgment until later. He was at a disadvantage to the other dancers but I guess I don't understand why he couldn't have shot Jersey Shore and practice as well. Other entertainers had worked and practiced at the same time. Is it because it's a reality show? Last night, the judges were in rare form. Len began the show with a good critique then turned into his usual caustic self which we all know and love to hate. Bruno was his normal flamboyant self which was fun to watch when not trying to decipher what he says. Carrie Ann I felt was trying too hard to be funny. Some of her comments were lagging behind and somewhat out of character. But then again, that's just me.

I only got to watch the first hour so I missed Bristol Palin. I was really surprised at how good Rick Fox danced. He was so graceful and I imagine that is quite difficult for someone who is as tall as he is. Len was in rare form again last night but I guess that's what keeps us watching

I got in on the last hour...enjoyed Florence Henderson and Bristol.. both were really good. David H... he has a huge attitude and ego problem so I really didn't like him, and he was the first voted off too. I saw JEn Grey and she was good, but the others I didn't know or see anyway. I love Derek the professional guy...he is just the best. But was that a new professional with Bristol? I dont' remember the name but boy oh boy, he is a close second to Derek! Those two are fantastic! But whats with the guy named "the situation"? Never heard of him before... whats' with that name?

Both Florence and Bristol surprised me. They definitely exceeded my expectations. The professional with Bristol is Mark Ballas. He's been on the show before. Actually he practically grew up with Derek. Derek is one of my favorite professionals on the show. I love his choreography and the way he usually pushes his partners to be the best. As for "The Situation," all I know is that he's part of MTVs Jersey Shore. I have no idea where that name came from. lol.
