This season is the first time I've ever watched this show (and after Bristol goes, so will I) so I'm wondering about something. Why are the contestants so mismatched? I mean, Jennifer is not an amateur. Her big claim to fame is "Dirty Dancing". That should disqualify her. Should there be any doubt that she will win? It does not seem fair to me. Yeah, I'm complaining. I think the whole thing is rigged. I think everyone knows that Bristol is being used to hype ratings.

I'm glad she is getting paid a lot and the dancing may bring her out of her shyness. That is the positive she can take away from all this. Also praying that she does not fall victim to any of those slick-talking experienced city boys.

I’ve not watched the show before either, so I can’t answer your questions. It’s not open for the amateurs to win, that’s for sure. Jennifer Gray and her partner will most assuredly win. Like you, when Bristol is voted off or however it happens that she is disqualified, I’m done with the show. I’m already steamed that she is always made to dance last, for the sole purpose of making us wait to watch her. Dancing last has to make her more nervous, so that strikes me as all the more unfair, but again, the show is going for “ratings.”

I’m also praying right along with you that she doesn’t fall prey to any fast talking big city guys, but I think she has a chaperone who’s also a babysitter.
