I also love DWTS. It should be an interesting 10 episodes. Can’t wait!
Really like watching DWTS it is exciting, colorful and fun!
I love DWTS, I hope this will be as good as all the rest, I don’t understand why it’s only 4 weeks though, I’m wondering if it’s because of American Idle coming back to ABC?
