@proudlyfromNJ The whole draw of any of these shows is the public vote.
Who would watch if only judges could choose?
Audience participation drives these shows, be it dancing or singing.
And this remark is not directed at you but I find it amusing how rattled some get over Spicer.
It's a show for entertainment, not a summit for world peace already.
@Cakers3 I can say I am not rattled over Spicer as I haven’t watched in about 3 seasons. I didn’t think they always had the audience vote in the beginning or did they? They have had a number of political people on the show so I don’t get what the problem is with SS. Edited to add, I prefer judges as to a popularity contest.
@proudlyfromNJ We only watched the first season and I honestly do not remember if they had audience voting or not.
I'm not sure how popular the show has been through the years but certain contestants have really "spiced" thing up ( haha ).
@Cakers3 LoL I remember Suzanne Somers being on, that was a trip. You could see the very tight tights on her legs as she tried to look young and sexy.
I watched on and off through the years. Always thought the football players were the best.

@Cakers3 The audience has always voted. Kelly Monaco won the first year, and she wasn't the best dancer. Emmitt Smith won the second year, and Mario Lopez was a better dancer, although Emmitt was very good.

Neither Kelly or Emmitt faired very well a few years later during the season they brought back all previous winners to compete.

They showed the Professional Ballroom Dance Competition one time on Public Television, and judges picked the winners and the show was still entertaining....
Some viewers have either had favorites, and others were voted off because some viewers don't like the fact that some contestants have had dance experience in music videos, or took dance lessons as a performer so it kind of gave them an advantage and some of these that were voted off and surprised the judges back then too....So I think sometimes the best contestant hasn't won over the years....
I agree the NFL players of the past have been very good...maybe its the fact that they are in such good shape athletically that helps them and they are probably better at taking coaching.... look at Rashad Jennings and Don Driver, and Jerry Rice....good winners!

I think the judges were more shocked than the viewers when Flannery was voted off and Spicer stayed.
Rest easy. Spicer was finally voted off on Monday night.

Omg! Everyone knows this is. Popularity contest and ( this is the most important part); it’s all about the ratings.
Doesn’t matter if it’s good or bad publicity...or terrible contestants.....
Look at who won last season...Bobby Bones...likable....but not much of a dancer...
