In a divisive, contentious, electrically-charged political year, comic relief is more than welcome. Thanks to Cloris Leachman (bless-her-heart) who has somewhat cleaned up that hussy beginning on Dancing With the Stars to provide buckets of laughter in our household. Hold tight til the minute-thirty mark, and you’ll see the clip we played over and over and over last night.
The invention of DVR blesses me. Seriously. Cause this mama is convinced that laughter is divine.
How ’bout a bonus happy clip? I love the Jive; imho no one can top Kristi & Mark’s last year’s version, but Lance & Lacey were my favorite dance of the night (if you’ll stick around til the two-minute point, you’re sure to leave with a smile, too).
Ha–apparently I suffer from short-term memory loss! I had completely forgotten when I originally fell in love with the Jive until I re-read my Kristy-Mark post. Fifteen seconds of fame is about right :).
I have never watched it, but you are right! That lady is hilarious!
I popped on my Google Reader for a writing break, and what a writing break it was! I snorted! I’m not sure what was funnier–the dancing itself, Cloris Leachman’s burrito, or the guy who said to his partner, “You were in high school in the eighties?”
Awesome. Actually, I just tuned in to DWTS last night – usually I watch EVERY episode, but I haven’t gotten into it this season. Oh my gosh is Derek amazing… I was thinking about putting something about him on my site. 🙂 We’ll see.
I love Lance and Lacey…but I think my favorite is the big guy, Warren Sapp.
Oh – and I am going on record as saying that poor Susan Lucci did NOT have the groove going on during the group dance. She pretty much…um…sucked.
Well, you know I LOVE Dancing with the Stars. I have recordings of almost every dance done all seven seasons (I say almost because I seem to remember my recorder missing a show or two). And Lance and Lacey’s jive will definitely be on my list of favorites. I felt bad for Brooke, but I still predict her in the finals.
BTW, are you following @ABC_DWTS on Twitter?
Okay, I can know say I have seen dancing with the stars..thanks!
I really need to watch these online b/c it’s one of my favorite “reality” tv shows!
Thanks for posting these clips – I missed the show!
Funny…I give them credit for getting up and doing that. I can’t dance.
