What We Hope To See From Dancing With the Stars’ “New Creative Direction”

New Sorts of Contestants  

Why do they hold casting celebrities with no dancing potential? That is the query we find yourself asking ourselves each season as we watch some celebs who’re barely in a position to shuffle by a single routine. They do not get the time to actually get higher, and different dancers find yourself having to carry themselves again (see: the raise rule). Scores are additionally skewed, since there are solely 10 factors in a rating, and solely so many factors you’ll be able to enhance earlier than you are simply good each time. 

But when a celeb with no dancing potential begins out getting fours, then the good dancers begin out getting sevens or eights, and so they can solely get to 10, whereas worse dancers can seem to enhance a lot sooner.

We additionally complain when contestants are already skilled dancers, as a result of that appears to make it unfair, however there must be a contented medium, like a minimal requirement of dance ability as a way to compete. Why would you even signal as much as do the present if you’ll be able to’t dance, and you will be out in the first or second week? A extra even taking part in area would make for a extra thrilling competitors. 

Precise celebrities (who usually are not politicians) would even be rule for the casting division to have.
