[Grandma Bear]

Wow! A very interesting line up.
I can;t wait

 

[CourtasanSatine]

This could be good but will have to find a new pro to drool over

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

ooo i cant' remember which pro i thought was the hottie last year!!

 

[Jeafl]

I am very grateful for the fact that we will not be subjected to the dancing of William Hung. If it was anywhere near as bad as his singing I would have to poke my eyes out with a red-hot poker!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

My favorite was Jonathon

 

[KimRaye]

Thanks for the info! Not sure who my pre-determined fave is but, now I'm leaning towards Emmett Smith or Harry Hamlin, because those are 2 I know! I am totally open-minded in this competition tho!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

This will sound vain but which male pros are the cute ones(need a new fav)

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

i'll have to find pics!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Does anyone know when it starts?

 

[jennyL]

Wow how did I miss this thread. LOL I love this show and this year with Sara Evans on it my DH will actually watch too. Not sure who I'm going to pull for though.

 

[Poohbear123]

With the "list" myself, Jerry Springer? Don't think he will make it past the first show, and some of the "others" I have never heard of. Willa, Shanna, and Monique NEVER heard of these have NO idea who they are.

I never heard of Drew Lachey, before last year. I'm keeping an open-mind, maybe not to Springer tho!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Willa Ford's a singer, teen pop

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I love her song I WANNA BE BAD!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

STARTS TUESDAY!!!!

ARE WE READY!!!!

 

[KimRaye]

STARTS TUESDAY!!!!

ARE WE READY!!!!

SOOOOOOO READY!!!!!

I think I will HAVE to TIVO it tho! It's on from 7-9 (right?) and, it's a school nite and, Kelly wants to watch with me but, bedtime is earlier than 9 so, I think TIVO is the way to go. But, we can skip the commercials and anxiety between performances when we replay it the next night. SO, please no immediate spoilers or, at least, post a WARNING first and, I'll close my eyes!



I wish Drew & Cheryl would come back!!! I'm not very excited about this year's line-up but, I think I'll find a fave after the 1st or 2nd week.
