I have watched every season of DWTS to date, and I must say this next one is not looking too promising. I understand that it would be very hard to "top" season 4, but one would think they would have tried a little harder than this!! .......oh, and Wayne Newton? ? What experience does he have that qualifies him to judge dance?!?!

Also, although I have really no idea who Sabrina Bryan is, I'm glad DwtS has at least one young star confirmed for the show (she herself has apparently confirmed on her website)...the professional dancers seem to be getting younger and younger (Julianne, Derek, Mark), and the majority of the rumoured stars are middle-aged. It seems to me like they need to strike some balance...

Listed were 12 rumored "stars" (and I use that term very loosely!), Mel B's name (but not dancing - possible Samantha replacement) and Newton was the 13th name. On one of the other sites there was discussion about someone reading on the DWTS website forum that the network was considering a 4th judge and ppl were putting Wayne Newton in that spot. Of course every bit of all of these discussions is completely speculation until the official announcements are made by the network itself.

I didn't know that there were rumors of ABC adding a 4th judge.

What experience does he have that qualifies him to judge dance?!?! No, I'm not saying Wayne Newton will be a judge, I'm hoping he will. I just don't want him dancing........everyone is saying there are too many dancers and rumor on the DWTS boards is they are supposed to have a 4th judge, I'm just hoping it's him......

why do I have this gut feeling that Apolo is going to play some part in this show? ?? As a commentator or something, I just think he will be involved.

Okay - the only person I am interested in watching is Derek - Julianne's brother. He's amazing. And it will be painful for me to watch Julianne without Apolo, but she's really fabulous and will watch how she does and support her.
Otherwise - pffffftttt...no one really jumps out at me.

From your lips...but hopefully he'd be able to get in there with some Samba hips once in a while. Here's to hoping. Correct me if I'm wrong. But I don't ever remember a winner ever coming back in any way except at the finale show and they only say a few words. I would love to see Apolo come back and at least be able to perform one time with Julianne ... you know when they have the night when they have an elimination and they have guest singers and the professionals dance. I would be happy with just that if that's even possible. As far as Apolo being involved more than that, I would think not only because of his training. He pulled himself away from training this summer only for a little more than a handful of shows. I would think, now it's just my opinion, but I would think that his number one priority is getting himself ready for 2010 and I wouldn't want him to jeopardize himself in any way to over extend himself. But I don't know what he's capable of handling. I only know I really want to see him make it to the OLYMPICS. But a little hip action here and there is okay with me too.

Rhiannon - you're are so right about his number one priority is getting himself ready for 2010. I'm just being really selfish - I absolutely want him to compete in 2010 and that's the most important goal at this point, but I also want to see him dance. I'll just have to get over it.

Just got off TMZ and lastest gossip there is that ABC is furious that cast leak got out and now they are saying it's not true or something like that, but TMZ's counterterrorist's spies are confirming Marie Osmond is definitely on the show. Well, I'm just going to get up at 7am and wait patiently for Apolo and Carrie Ann to come on and announce it, can't wait.

Ohnoagain, I got chills when I read your feeling that Apolo might be back on the show in some capacity. Wouldn't that be awesome? But then I thought that Drew's been looking for a job too and he's very popular as well. I would have thought they'd have offered him something by now if that were to be. We can always dream though. About your last post, I'm still convinced the list is the same as the one leaked or they wouldn't be 'furious'. Those same names have been tossed around for awhile now. I don't know that I believe about Marie Osmond. They might be doing damage control to add some drama to tomorrow's announcement in light of the leak.
