I hate Ms. Banks already lol. So phony and self-absorbed.

The opening made it seem like a beauty pageant. I'm watching since there is nothing else on

. I wanted to see geek Nev dance along with AH and ODAT Machado.

Oh and Chrishell sp??...

[Faulkner]

Nelly is still sexy but man is he stiff...

[All My Shadows]

Man, I really do feel like watching this, and I never have, not even when Lucci was on lol I'm totally here for Nev, Nelly, Chrishell, Carole, and Justina. Why not just bring back The Surreal Life and have them on?

[Vee]

I will watch Justina when they post it. Nelly's dance looked fun though. I'm glad Chrishell is doing well.

 

I hate that ODAAT's return to what seems like a safe harbor (Pop) got derailed by COVID-19 midway through filming their now-truncated fourth season. It was good but I wonder what's next. They're urging people to watch the CBS reruns of Season 4 and I hope y'all do, it was good. I hope Pop is still standing by it despite these very difficult times that have upended everything. At least The Conners (which I have like 6 episodes of to watch) is allegedly already back filming.

Premiere ratings up 30 percent from last season (and highest since 2017):

People probably tuned in out of curiosity.

[Faulkner]

That’s my guess too. Between Tyra and the cast... not sure much from last night will inspire people to keep tuning in, though. We shall see. The pre-premiere marketing did its job, and now the show has to do a lot of the work itself.

I wish DWTS had gotten Max too from MTV Catfish to compete against Nev. I've always found Max hot.

 

As for the ratings...I doubt the numbers will remain high.

This show is a shambles. Lots of production mistakes (cuts to empty chairs where people should be, cameramen stumbling into frame). And Tyra has no rapport with the judges, dancers, and stars. She was practically shooing Artem out of her shot when he appeared to give the update on Kaitlyn. She’s trying to steal the spotlight on a show that’s by definition an ensemble piece.

 

There’s zero time for the judges’ comments yet time for Tyra’s inane questions.

 

[Faulkner]

Tyra is still getting trashed on social media, but the ratings have really held up, sort of vindicating ABC’s choice (even if people are tuning in for the train wreck factor).

LOL at people dragging Tyra’s fashions:
