Ron - re DWTS
Well, I'm not saying it's tit for tat. I'm talking about an overall air of free-for-all disrespect that's set when (examples) Bruno would liken Chaz Bono to a penguin or an Ewok, or what Len did to Nancy Grace (whom I admit I don't like that much in her news work, but she deserved better than that "you've been like Cinderella at the ball all these weeks, now it's time to go home" last week. But she's classy in some respects and was in the audience this week, wasn't she?)
I sometimes make fun at Skip taking TV drama series seriously, and he sometimes laughs at me taking DWTS so seriously. Much of this was "good television" - at least I found it gripping at times, and much of this season's DWTS was appointment must-see-live TV for me.
