All this week on ElimiDate, they hd this pro ballroom dancer "Jesse" on. He eliminated girls based on their ability to dance as part of the competition.

I must say he was SUCH the gentleman (as compared to most of the guys who make it to that show).....

I can't say much for most of what I've seen on that show of either gender. Watching it always makes me feel like I need to go to the doctor and get a penicillin shot. :D
 
It's a show on Fox or WB or something like that. I caught a glimpse of it last week. Yes, the guy (billed as a ballroom champ, but I didn't recognize him, and I tuned in somewhere in the middle of the episode) was quite the gentleman, compared to the guys who usually do these shows. He was supposed to select from among several women. He seemed to make his choice based on how quickly they learned to mambo, rather than their physical assets. He did act quite professionally, more like a dance teacher, with none of the weird personal comments you get in shows like that.
The women, on the other hand, were another story entirely. One of them started stripping him during a dance, and he didn't seem to appreciate that at all. I think his comment was something like 'this wasn't a dance step he recognized'. I didn't watch through the end of the show. Not my cup of tea.

That's hilarious. :lol:
 
In the end, the really nice girl who was sincere (and wore proper dancing shoes) got the guy. :) All is right with the world. All the witchese who were nasty to each other got the boot. Dude said something like "You aren't really getting what I'm about, so I'm going to have to cut you". MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH :twisted:

And the sweet one (with the dance shoes) was asked what was so special and she said that to her finding someone to dance with that you could really like was just the best thing in the world..... MUAHAHAHAHAHAH

All the other girls made fun of her for A) wearing Angelo Luzio dance shoes (taupe) and for B) being so sweet (what Jesse called "genuine"). They thought that their "I'm bigger B-itch than you" act was going to get the somewhere........

And the girl actually was a really good follower. The last dance was an Argentine-flavored Tango. It was good for a beginner. The other girl was like a fish......

Exactly as it should be. Not such a bad way of selecting a date, IMO. 8)

Can I get an amen? :wink:
 
I was rooting for the sweet one the whole time. :)

You should've *seen* her rival in the final. Dude leads a dip and Sweet Girl just drifts back into it gently with leg properly extended, foot pointed, etc. Witch Woman throws herself into the dip and has her leg all bent crooked with foot flexed... EWWWWWWW....

Funny thing.... Both girls are wearing ballgowns (real ones). Sweet Girl is wearing black with some awesome stoning inred and crystal. Witch Woman makes a catty remark about HER being the one wearing the "real" Tango dress since it was red... OY! I wanted to reach through my TV and slap somebody.....

There should be automatic disqualification for blatant ignorance, IMO. :roll: :lol:

I love it! But please tell me this would be for more than just this TV show! :twisted:
 
:lol: :lol: As you wish. 8)

I can just see it now.


Ms: So-and-So: [Inane remark. Use your imagination.]

*buzzer*

Announcer: I'm sorry, Ms. So-and-so, but you have been disqualified due to gross ignorance.

Ms. So-and-So: But ... but ... but ...

Annoucer: Sorry, ma'am. I'd love to help you. But I can't. Our records indicate that you're just too stupid to be on television.

:lol: :lol:
