MVP = "Most Valuable Player" in case everyone doesn't know.

Which "regulars" do you appreciate most?

Eligible:
-Pros who have been on more than one season.
-Hosts and Judges
-Celebs who have BOTH danced AND also come back for "regular" appearances in seasons after their own (ones who have appeared regularly in comedy segments, like "Dance Center", for example)

Of course this all assumes you've seen multiple seasons. If you haven't though, an educated guess about who's been on multiple seasons is all right. Usually you can tell from how they are talked about on the show.

I'll start with mine.

Tom Bergeron.

I think he elevates the show far beyond what it might be otherwise. Probably the single sharpest host on Television (well, at least on American television), he ALWAYS has a joke ready, he's NEVER caught flat-footed or unprepared, and can make even the least interesting parts of the show at least SEEM entertaining. He's not intimidated by ANY of the celebrities--in fact by three or four episodes in you can usually tell how totally comfortable the celebs are with HIM. His interaction with the judges and the pro dancers is probably the heart of the show though--its just plain great. You can tell how often he totally cracks up his coworkers, since its usually all right there on the screen.

I'm assuming that most of Tom's host work makes it across to the U.K. broadcasts. About the only part I'd think they'd cut would be the occasional in-show promos he does for other ABC shows.

I've some other favorites on the show, but I'll leave it at that for now. People can also post about their LEAST favorites if they get bored.

I agree about Tom, he manages to be witty and yet not OTT like Bruce Forsyth on SCD.

MVP - dancewise: Derek, Tony, Louis, Maks, Cheryl, Edyta....... Perhaps I'd better stop there!!

MVP - judge: can only be Len - he's the only one who knows about BB & Latin dance.

Dancer-wise my MVP list varies, depending on the qualities we are analyzing.

Choreography: Derek. He's the best choreographer by far.

Charm (Female): Kym Johnson, by a mile. A few years ago it might have been Julianne Hough, but I've gotten really tired of her (and to be honest, of her brother too, even if I still think he's an amazing choreographer).

Charm (Male): Macks. Really, he's the only male dancer on the show I think I could be actual real life friends with if I met him somewhere. Otherwise the male cast ranges from smarmy (Derek) to a bit too slick (Louis van Amstel) to a bit creepy (the Ballases). Tony seems okay... but I just don't quite get him.

Hottest Woman: Edyta. I HATE the orange fake tan she slaps over her whole body, but there's no denying she has just about the most amazing body in the universe, and a fairly nice face too (when you see it natural, without the fake tan).

Host: Tom Bergeron. He's fabulous, the ultimate professional. As we allow Len to go on DWTS, can we PLEASE have Tom to replace the dreadful dodderer.

Judge: Len. The one and only!

Pros: Derek, Mark, Maksim, Tony, Julianne, Karina, Cheryl & Anna.
