Dancing With The Stars 7 - Week 1

   Once again, Speed Gibson is enthralled with the return of Dancing with
   the Stars, now starting its seventh season, and in my case, now in HD.
   Glorious! I'm pleased to see Harold Wheeler again in command of the
   best band on television.
   The first round Monday went to Brooke Burke and Derek Hough, 23 of 30
   points from the judges. But give me Lance Bass and new pro Lacey
   Schwimmer, a sort of rocker chick that is competing for my lustful
   heart with Samantha Harris. They did get 22 points, one behind the
   leader.
   Ted McGinley and and new pro Inna Brayton were underscored at 18, but
   maybe he made too made George Hamilton mugs at the camera.
   Susan Lucci was surprising bad, scoring only 15 because of a very
   timid performance when we expect the fire of Erica Caine. But she
   should have a week to get over the nerves, for Cloris Leachman should
   get the boot tonight. Not bad for age 82 I suppose, but she tried to
   pass for 75 with slutty poses and a potty mouth.
   But don't be surprised if comedian Jeffrey Ross goes instead, who got
   the low score of 12 and deserved it, even if he is nursing an eye
   gouge from his partner Edyta during practice. It doesn't look like
   we'll get to watch her undress every week as usual.
   They saved a surprise for the last number, retired NFL lineman Warren
   Sapp. He was twinkletoes, got a very respectable 21 points, and
   clearly will improve week to week.
   More tonight, 8 pm - scary music, an elimination, and another round of
   dances. I love it!
