Dancing With the Stars - A Five Star Show For All
Ages
Have you ever watched the television program Dancing With The
Stars? If not, that is surprising. Dancing With the Stars is a
television show that is loved by many different people of all
different ages. For example, I am a mother of 6 children.
Dancing With the Stars is the only show that my children, all
except the baby because he can not talk, and I love to watch.
We try not to miss a single episode.
My oldest, an eleven year old girl and my 4th oldest, a four
year old girl, sit week after week glued to the screen hoping
to pick up some new moves to use in their drill squad
performances. If we have to miss an episode, I hear it for days
from them both.
Then there is the flipside, and by that I mean the portion of
my family that are boys. I have two boys that watch it weekly
as well and they are 7 and 8 years old. The older of the two
watch it wondering if he will ever dance like that and the
younger of the two watch it hoping to see someone mess up. Go
figure, boys will be boys.
I personally like to watch it because it shows that celebrities
do not automatically come by a wide array of talent they have
to work to become good at some things. My personal favorite
celebrity that has been on the show, probably showed that more
than some. Billy Ray Cyrus is my favorite of the all the
celebrities that have appeared on Dancing With the Stars. He
struggled from day one. He was large and awkward to put it
nicely.
Billy Ray never let his awkwardness hold him back though. He
gave it his all every time he performed. An interesting point
is that season, all of my children were also rooting Billy Ray
on. Granted they were rooting for him because he is the father
to their favorite actress but none the less, it again shows the
wide range of ages that enjoy the show. After all, any show
that can keep the interest of a woman in their mid to late 30s
and also her six children must have something worthwhile in
it.
Now let us take a minute to compare what the different age
groups think of the judges. The three widely known judges are;
Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonili. Every one has
their own opinion of the judges. Some like one or two of them
and there are also some that like all three or none of them. I
like the fact that the judges usually will be right on the
money. However, I have noticed that my children tend to get
upset with the judges, even when their scores are warranted, if
the judges give their favorite performer a bad score. They seem
to be hardest on Carrie Ann, especially my boys.
No matter what age, sex, or geographic area you are from,
chances are you have seen an episode or more of the ever
popular show Dancing With the Stars. If you have children, try
to sit down and watch an episode with them. It is a fun way to
install quality family time in this hectic world we live
in.
