Iris Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Did anyone watch this? Just wondering how similar it is to DWTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jersey721 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 omg, what a train wreck. The only reason to watch, in my opinion, is to see what Johnny Weir is wearing each week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cathy Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I may enjoy reality tv but not enough to watch this one! Then again, I don't like dancing with the stars either. I guess at least with skating theres no way any of the "stars" have an unfair advantage over others like on dancing where some of the people who compete have had some professional training prior to the show.
