Wow. That's quite a lineup. I just may have to tune in for more than just the finals. Thanks!

Surprised to hear that Mario will be on this season

Ok...I admit this is a guilty pleasure for me. I claim I just watch it since my wife watches...there - I said it!

Adam Carolla is going to be entertaining to say the least I think. I can't imagine him being serious at all!

Sherry - I'm so glad I got a chance to see this. As a huge fan of ice skating, I really want to see how Kristi Yamaguchi does on the dance floor. I'd guess she has had plenty of dance classes before because many ice skaters do. I really didn't know she was going to be on the show until I read your article. Thanks!

I love reading your articles on this! Keeps me interested.

Good job, Sherry!

Did you see them on Oprah this week? Jimmy Kimmel was making fun of his ex-partner, Adam. I saw clips. This is making the transition from a last stop for has-beens to the "in" show for celebrities. I was surprised last year when jane Seymour was on it, and this year we have an Oscar winner. So, who would you like to see on the show, Sherry? I'd like to see them turn Chuck Norris into a dancer.

This should be an interesting season. I may have to watch more then a couple of episodes.
