Is it wrong that I'm glad Fox won't show the president's press conference tonight? [link]

BB: Did you see this? [link] Braden was calling what's-his-name a "beaner"! Slightly hilarious, given that he's not Mexican...
I'm not quite sure how I feel about not showing the news conference. I mean, it's the president (not that I really want to miss the first hour of SYTYCD) Is it a slight on Obama, or just an acknowledgment that people don't want their shows preempted?
I think it's some of both.
hunh. 3 dances in and I am not liking stuff.
Me, neither. Not that any of it was outright bad, but none of it has lived up to expectation.
Did Mary bark at Nigel?
Yeah, it's all meh so far. I think this is why I'm not in love with anyone this season -- it's not like there's anyone who is always great, or even surprisingly good. Actually, thinking about it, "surprisingly good" is where I fall in love with people -- and of course the judges pull "no training!" bullshit to make that happen -- but the dancers this season seem overall really good, but there is so little that is stunning.
I'm glad they brought in an actual dance judge along with Ellen, I must say...
Hee, if she did I missed it.
My favorite part of this show, tonight, is Ellen. We need her as a judge more often even if she doesn't know squat about dance.
Mia is very critical, huh?
Ellen is making me giggle.
