Anyone competing against Tonya - guard your knees (and the rest of your body).

I thought Muslims consider dancing to be “Haram.”

Well DWTS, you have done it again! I frequently have enjoyed the dancing on this show, but when they have ‘look at me, at me’ activists like Adam Rippon dancing, I cannot be bothered.

“PyeongChang breakout star Adam Rippon”

Is this the homo who came in 8th or the American hating jerk who came in 27th?

The dance skit Tonya can do for that week where they all moan about the most significant year of their life could be called “Swinging in the Rain,” to the tune “Singing in the Rain.”

That shouldn’t be a problem. Actress Cloris Leachman competed when she was 82, and made several rounds if I remember correctly.
