Guest blogger Janell is back with us in the new year, taking on Live to Dance. Take it away, Janell:
Do you live to dance? Or perhaps do you just live to eat ice cream while watching others dance? Have you been wondering what would become of Paula Abdul’s career after she left American Idol? Then have I got the show for you! You’ve got two weeks to become addicted before American Idol starts up and you have to decide where your loyalties lie. Unless you’ve got a dual-tuner DVR, in which case you can split your loyalties right down the middle. Technology: the King Solomon of the Future.
I’m excited for this show. I’m a fan of dance competition shows, but I’m sure the people in charge wouldn’t have created another one unless they were going to show us something we’ve never seen before. Isn’t that the plan? Also, I’ve been taking Zumba classes, so I feel pretty qualified to judge and dismiss moves with a pithy, “I can do that.” Because I totally can.
Now I’ll set the snark aside because we’ve got two hours to get through. We begin with dramatic lights and music, and a male British announcer voice. The prize is $500,000, the competition is open to any age, any style, any group size. Paula gets to sing the theme song, which I will write in its entirety: “5, 6, 7, 8, Live to dance. Live to dance, 5, 6, 7, 8.”
