I feel sorry for the men, their goofy outfits rank up there with figure skaters.

How is "fame" "fun" _and_ "weird"? Nothing "weird" about this story but the headline. Good luck, dancers.

Kevin,

Sounds like you don't appreciate dance at all. If not, then keep your ignorant criticism to yourself. Others who enjoy dance think the outfits are flashy and entertaining. That is what dance is all about... duh!

Go get a life somewhere else and stop spewing your bile where it is not appreciated.

Good for them--the show, yawn | 12:31 p.m. July 2, 2008
I think the article explains how fame can be both fun and weird to those who are new to it. It was a good read, bringing
The highlights of some of these reality shows could occur ten minutes; the rest of the show is just a big production that tries to build its own suspense, which doesn�t exist for me, regardless. I can watch highlights of this one in the news, or just read about it. Even with all the lights and fanfare, if you've seen one of these dance shows, you've seen it all. Not to mention how objective it is, especially when left to America's bias. Hey, at least 14 year old girls have something to watch.
out something of interest behind a dance competition of little interest to me, otherwise. Why this fame exists is beyond me.

I didn't realize that 4 people on that show are Utah dancers. Not that I'm going to spend any more time watching that show now. Watching dance is a good night out on the town for me where you can enjoy the ambiance of the experience, but as a weekly pastime on my TV, I don't think so!

Dave, the outfits are dorky to say the least. Kevin is right and he is not spreading bile. I think the bile is leaking from your piehole.

Dave, settle down big fella! Kevin simply gave an opinion on the costumes. Their ruffly, sparkly nature combined with the sunflower yellow obviously didn't appeal to him. And I have to agree that they do look like Orem/Osmond Entertainment circa 1979. If he considers that "dorky," it is hardly bile-which is more akin to something that comes out of the mouth of Veep Cheney.
Ease up.

I'm very proud of these dancers. I never watched "Dance" until my wife turned me onto it. Now I can't wait for Wednesday and Thursday nights.

Good luck, Utah dancers! We're rooting for you!

The word "goofy" is too nice, the clothes are worse than goofy.

Dave:
Look in the mirror. If you look like those dancers, change your clothes. I think Kevin is right the clothes are dorky.
