I know what I like but I fear that my choices are not the most popular, so I wondered which is the most liked dance and which one is the most disliked.

So a scoring board with 14 for most favorite to 1 least would be the only way to properly examine the results, as sample of what I mean I list my preference bellow.

Instead of the Stricly system, if there is a tie say at 5 I will give them both 4.5, so than the next one can be 3 and it is not a huge gap.

Argentinean Tango: 14
Paso Doble: 13
American Smooth: 12
Quickstep: 11
Tango: 10
Charleston: 9
Waltz: 8
Salsa: 7
Rumba: 6
VW: 5
Foxtrot: 4
ChaChaCha: 3
Samba: 2
Jive: 1

Remember, It is about the type of dance, not what it has been done this series or other series. For instance, I love the Paso in essence however I have never been seen in this country (not even Kara's) one that actually is what i think Paso should be.

This is so difficult! Because I just want to remember dances on Strictly that I loved... but actually I hate the vast majority of rumbas, pasos, tangos, and sambas on the show. But when they are danced well, I absolutely love to watch the rumba and the paso

For watching in a Pro/Am competition like SCD:

14. Viennese Waltz (purest of ballroom dances)
13. Foxtrot (requires great artistry)
12. Tango
11. American Smooth (love the open work and usual music)
10. Cha Cha Cha (most do the chasse poorly, but still the easiest of all the "International" Style competition latin dances and thus most do a passable job for watching)
9. Samba
8. Waltz
7. Jive (love Swing but "Jive" dance steps usually look bad due to poor performance - almost all dancers have too busy of tops)
6. Rumba (only looks good when done by great dancers)
5. Quickstep (a bastard of a dance)
4. Salsa (love Mambo/Salsa, but choices for performance steps are almost always crappy in "ballroom" competition)
3. Argentine Tango (overdone, overwrought)
2. Paso Doble (suffers like the Charleston from forced casting into stereotypical choreography)
1. Charleston (almost always cast into the 1920's making routines seem too similar.)
