From athletes to models and Hollywood stars to Bachelor Nation, “Dancing with the Stars” has had an incredible season so far. “Dancing with the Stars” is a competition dance show that pairs a celebrity and a professional dancer together and they compete against a handful of other partnerships for the final trophy, The Mirrorball. The show is on season 33 and after this, they will go on a national tour.
This season started very controversial. One of the stars was Anna Delvey, who is a convicted con artist and spent her time on the show bedazzling her ankle monitor. There was also a pairing that decided a relationship between the two of them was more important than the show itself. Ever since they got eliminated though, the show has gone viral on TikTok multiple times, with dance moves that other partnerships have performed. Personally, I think the popularity behind the show this season is the many young faces behind the pros. Pro dancer Rylee Arnold brought back some fame to the show in Season 32 and is doing the same thing this season. Along with her, Ezra Sosa made his debut this season and has also gained a big fan base from the show. Rylee and Ezra together are a good dynamic duo that brings a lot more attention to the previously dying show. Along with social media, the show also made the record books for most votes, with 14 million people voting for the first elimination of the season.
One big thing I have noticed this season is that the judges’ votes seem unfair and unreasonable. They are either too generous about the scores they give, or they are scoring as if the celebrities have been dancing their whole life.
There have only been a few tens this season and they are few and far between. The show also brought on guest judge, Gene Simmons as well as another guest judge, who I thought gave the best feedback all season. Mark Ballas brought his dance knowledge to the judges’ booth and amazed everyone. The best part of the entire season is the amount of skill all the contestants have had to offer. Almost everyone has a natural talent for dance and the ones who don’t have worked so hard, that it makes it seem like they had it come naturally. They have taken the judges’ corrections and done something with it. The talent is so good that I seriously can’t predict who is going to win.
Four Stars.
